But the Amish are nonetheless protected. Not by the law but by having a community of people around them willing to live with those same restrictions and provide for each other. I think that's much more likely to happen…
And then what? Once the economy no longer depends on human input (labor), why do we expect it to keep producing outputs that humans need (food, shelter, medical care)?
I doubt the truthfulness your second sentence. If they have concern for the human race broadly, they have yet to show any of it. What they have shown is a complete lack of 'alignment' (to borrow a tired term) with human…
Somebody else asked this very eloquently: If AGI is here, why does OpenAI need us to prompt it? They could just go and tell it "make as much money as possible" or "make Sam Altman God Emperor of Mankind" and it would go…
For most microcontrollers you'd want to use today (ARM and RISC-V mostly, Xtensa or AVR if you like pain) you can just use Rust. For anything weirder than that (PIC?) where Rust is no option, it's not like you have no…
The server could simply be running a patched PHP.
It cannot even show that. The server can lie (trivially).
> If it's all going through the same pipes, what is there to market. They keep coming up with fancy new pricing schemes or random gimmicks to throw in. Nobody really seems to give a shit though.
The way I understand it in my country is this: There is only one public water system, every house connects to it. The state tasks specific companies with its maintenance (these are often not utility providers…
It's a really dumb test. You can apply it to argue against reducing or stopping literally anything. My dead great grandfather uses no fentanyl and commits no murders. If we're not doing those, we're as good as dead!
The critical CVE (https://docs.gitlab.com/releases/patches/patch-release-gitla...) seems embargoed, just saying that it involves integer overflow in a regex compiler. Coincidentally, there is also a (non-embargoed) musl…
DNSSEC deployment has been anything but trivial. This APNIC post from 2024 estimated that about 1% of DNS queries were being validated via DNSSEC: https://blog.apnic.net/2024/05/28/calling-time-on-dnssec/. That's more…
Oh wow, that is even more damning. Only 146 out of the possible 256 keys have this property. You only have about a 1% chance to get that 8 times in a row (A little more than 1% if sampling with replacement and a little…
My bet is on one of - A sequence number being accidentally used as the private key or - The private key being generated securely but then accidentally truncated to 8 bits (e.g. writing a single char into a zeroed buffer…
Sure, if you can MitM the connection to a single-homed destination network, you can get Let's Encrypt to sign you certificates for things in that network, regardless of how many perspectives Let's Encrypt uses. However,…
I mean, where I live, there are no HOAs, but the city council instead mandates those kinds of things via zoning rules. I think I still prefer that to HOAs, because - The city is pretty good at taking care of public…
Yeah. I drive a modern Stellantis EV and it's quite evident that this is an afterthought retrofitted onto a ICE/hybrid platform. The battery is not that huge, but more importantly all the EV-specific features you'd…
Heck, even using multiple returns for this feels like a kludge to me at this point, when more advanced languages like TypeScript, Rust or Zig offer sum types/tagged unions.
So instead of relying on someone's hosted service, this is relying on someone's 4 hosted services?
I don't think it's a paradox because the EU is not a single actor. Just like any government, they do some good and some bad things.
Yes you can add entries, but it's still an awful design. It's like if the web didn't have media queries and such and instead everyone ships a big database of user agent strings that websites check in order to know what…
Terminfo was never a particularly good idea, but in today's day and age it has become simply ridiculous. Its original purpose was to store data about actually manufactured physical terminals, and so it was okay that it…
Sure, but that's nothing new. Russia has always been investing into domestic alternatives, even going to great lengths to build their own CPU architecture and such. But they've been a sworn enemy of the West so that's…
I think NixOS is also just much better suited for this particular job than SUSE. We use NixOS for everybody at work even though we're a German company.
Not just the foundation, the inventors of Nix and NixOS are Dutch too, it came out Utrecht University. Even the name is from dutch "niks" for "nothing", the snowflake came later and is basically a retcon. As for…
