GPU encoding means it's using the encoder the GPU and driver provides. Which can be worse than software encoders. For software encoders they exist for encoding. On a GPU it's one feature of many, and doesn't necessarily seek out the same high bar.
They don't particularly go into the technical details, but announce:
We don’t rely on tracking user data, like what other websites someone has visited, to determine if a user is a human or robot. Our business is protecting websites, not selling ads, so operators can deploy Turnstile knowing that their users’ data is safe.
The tracking reference is about Google captchas using logged-in user account and tracking information to gain confidence in a user being a person and not requiring challenges for them.
Simple CAPTCHA systems give you a challenge to complete, to show you are human. (As the Cloudflare post points out, it's most of the time easier for bots to solve challenges than it is for humans. But botters still require expertise and solutions.)
Sophisticated CAPTCHA systems may use any information the web-browser sends them to make a guess on whether the user is human or not, according to probabilistic models. For example the click interaction means you move your cursor, which can be tracked and analyzed against patterns.
You can include what you deem unfit in the Natural Selection process too. Humans are part of reality, part of nature, part of Natural Selection process/environment.
A crop that can only survive with human culturing may be unfit without human intervention, but humans are there culturing it. The crop survives. The crop even replaces other crops that humans may have cultivated otherwise. The crop is still being naturally selected. So you have to include humans and that process in Natural Selection.
Natural Selection is a process. It has no intention or intended function.
You give more meaning to life than natural selection or physics does. Arguing from that perspective is flawed. You're equating and relating the wrong things.
We don't have a universe of non-living matter because life is an inherent necessary consequence of the physical properties and processes of our universe.
Even the positive result in your first point I am skeptical of. Advertisements have a huge selection bias on what they show you. Even if it's the topic you want, I'd be concerned about correctness, reasonability, viability. The highest bidder shows me ads, does that mean it's the most expensive option? Most wasteful? Most manipulative into other spending or into vendor or thinking lock-in?
The title question is very broad, varied, and difficult. It depends.
For anything that is not a small script or small, obvious and obviously scoped takes, you can't assess at first glance.
So for a project/task/extension like you wrote it's a matter of:
Is there docs or guide specifically for what I want to do/add? If yes, the expectation is it is viable and reasonably doable with low risk.
If there is no guide the assessment is already an exploration and analysis. How is the project structured, is there docs for it or my concerns, where do I expect it as to go and what does it have to touch, what's the risks of issues and unknown difficulties and efforts. The next step would already be prototyping, and then implementing. Both of which can be started with a "let's see" and timebox approach where you remain mindful of when known or invested effort or risk increases and you can stop or rethink.
I'm always a bit irritated by that definite statement that companies don't care.
The company I work for is small, ~30 people, and my boss/employer as a person cares about me. A lot as a worker/employee, maybe less so but also as a person/individual.
Yes, the company as a theoretical construct does not care for or about me. It's a construct. But that ignores the people in it, and the variance between companies (even if it's only a minority where leadership personally cares).
This is why older people think slower and lose memories or cognitive functions as side effects. They are depriorizized and moved from ram to pagefiles/swap disk.
If you're unfamiliar, the OS will move process memory onto disk when RAM runs out.
Note that I said 7-zip, not zip. Are you making that claim for 7-zip?
Do you have a source for the brute forcing? Because I'm interested. If it's actually being done I doubt it'd go beyond predefined common password lists or exploiting non-secure passwording.
When you talk about network setup and IP addresses you have to differentiate between your local network (between your end devices and router) and the "outside". Your devices connect to the internet through the router.
The IP gateway setting is your end device setting of which gateway to send packets through. You set it to your router. Whether this is done automatically (via "DHCP") or not doesn't make a difference in the end.
The netmask defines the network address space size. It's also something you don't need to change to set/change a DNS.
Where did you try to change the DNS setting? On your end devices would be enough. On your router it should also be a simple setting independent of other and of IP settings. (If the router allows configuration of it.)
(Did you set a static IP on your router, facing your local network, or the internet (would have to be provided by the ISP), or your end device within the local network (this is not necessary for DNS)? Either way I don't see why it would be necessary to set a static IP address anywhere.)
You can 7-zip it with a password. That's pretty simple to do and use - you only need an archiving program that supports it and can send that file and share the password.
While the verdict isn't public until its announcement "early next month", the report suggests Apple unfairly prevented apps from suggesting payment methods outside of the App Store.
Spotify submitted their (first) complaint in 2019.
