Uh, plenty of people accept this argument, it’s part of the idea of the movement behind legalizing all/most drugs.

Look at marijuana, the drug dealer is now a business, and very few people are mad at dispensaries for selling pot.

In the end, if it wasn’t them, it would be someone else. If governments weren’t buying spyware from NSO, they would be making it themselves or finding another group who builds exploits.
>Endorsed by the home secretary, Priti Patel, the consultation argues that press disclosures can be worse than spying, because the work of a foreign spy “will often only be to the benefit of a single state or actor”.

tl;dr Priti Patel thinks embarrassing government leaks are worse for her than actual espionage and so wants to criminalize them.
Oddly enough rural areas have a lot of trees too, so reporting on a non-optimal setup is very valuable.

Well that depends on how many sheep we get. People don't care about principles until they are the ones being deplatformed, and abused. I sincerely hope that eventually you will figure out that the only way to have good things in a capitalistic society is to have competition. Odysee is that. Considering it has some high-profile you tubers switching over, I'd say it has potential to make Youtube irrelevant: it makes just as much money, and a decentralised system, means there isn't a single entity to bring it all down.
That's not really any different for Kubernetes.

You still need to figure out where your persistent storage is.

You still have to send logs somewhere for aggregation.

You have the added difficulty of figuring out cost tracking in Kubernetes since there is not a clear delineation between cloud resources.

You have to configure an ingress controller.

You want SSL? Gotta set that up, too.

You have to figure out how pods are assigned to nodes in your cluster, if separation of services is at all a concern (either for security or performance reasons).

Kubernetes is no better with the creation of "bespoke solutions" than using what your cloud provider offers.

Compare this tutorial for configuring SSL for Kubernetes services to an equivalent for configuring SSL on an AWS load balancer. Is Kubernetes really adding value here?

US National Security Advisor's Remarks at AI Summit
Do professional drivers need to wear seatbelts?

The truth is that even really good technologists sometimes make mistakes. My insurance agent's email got hacked recently. I was in the process of renewing a policy, so opened the link to a phishing site and entered credentials. Oops. Thankfully I immediately noticed and changed the password (+ had two factor on.) Had that been an attached PDF instead I probably would have opened it.

At this point, consumer/end machine AV is a bit like vaccinations for diseases that are largely under control- attacks aren't spreading because the there are many protections in place, but if the unprotected population rises (especially in high value targets like developers) than the attacks will increase.

Configure AV? Sure. In fact just last week or so I had to validate that a server level product was really scanning user uploaded files correctly, so I had purposefully download known bad file (The sample file from EICAR) https://www.eicar.org/?page_id=3950). Getting defender setup so I could handle that file was annoying but manageable. I've also disabled real time scanning of certain applications and processes for performance reasons.

However, would I run without it on at all? Nope- I'm pretty good driver, but I still wear my seatbelt.

I guess I'm not disagreeing with this point of view.

Perhaps my conclusion would be, rather, that a SWAT team coming in to arrest someone shouldn't also lead to a heart attack situation. Maybe I'm being naive, and probably most people SWAT teams come to apprehend are super-dangerous, but it feels to me it shouldn't be a consideration.

These are two different things. The fact that Black and Hispanic Americans are not getting the vaccine is more due to access than it is to vaccine rejection. See https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-biggest-barri... for a more detailed discussion.

Also observe in Figure 4 of https://www.kff.org/coronavirus-covid-19/issue-brief/latest-... that while the percentage of whites that have gotten vaccinated his higher than Black and Hispanic groups, the slope of the curve is higher in the latter cases - if trends continue, the lines will cross, just as Canada has exceeded the US vaccination rate, and possibly for similar reasons.

Those numbers aren't measuring the same thing as the ones quoted in the article, so you really can't use the one set to say much about the other.

It's a bit like trying to say that 4 square meters is less than 6 cubic feet, just based on the numbers alone. It's nonsensical, because units do matter. Perhaps both those figures could play a part in an interesting comparison, depending on what they're actually measuring, but, even if they could, you'd need to bring in some more numbers to get there.

Ok, so you take belgium "as a failed state", and the "Quebec factor", while ignoring, let's say... Switzerland?

> If you look at the borders of Europe and how they flop around over time, it becomes clear that the 'delineating' factor is mostly ethnicity, at least crudely.

No. I don't know why you would think that. Brittany was Gallo-Breton, and the two ethnicity almost cut the duchy in two. Two very, very different languages and ethnicity. I would know, i was born on the lingual border. Occitan was closer to Ligurian than to Paris' French, Normand was closer to London's, I would like to think that Liege was always speaking alsacian rather than French, and that Burgundy was speaking more French than the Armagnac Duchy was. The Basque ethnicity was always separated between two crowns (at least)

You know what defined the national borders during the nationnalism epidemic of the 19th century? Natural borders. And when none exist, you create artificial ones, not a all following ethnicity. Ukraine? Lithuania? Poland even? No natural borders => the borders cut with forests or swampsm not "ethnical divide" (or else eastern Europe would NOT look like this).

> Napoleon failed outside his borders whereas within France, it might have just worked for him.

Yes, and what was France looking like when he took power? How yeah, Savoy, Piedmont, Liguria are really French. As are the netherlands... It worked for him until he started to meddle into other kingdom's/Empire internal affairs.

> Greece is still Greece today after 2500 years, the borders are similar.

Yeah, no. The old Greece western borders stopped before that (linguistically at least), the northern border reached higher, as were the eastern borders. I know that Iran fancy themselve as persia successor, but let's be honest, their border follow more natural borders than the old Persian Empire.

If ethnocentrism were "as old as time", what about the Mughals? What about the Romans? What about the "King of Franc" ruling over a lot of non-Franc (a majority of non-Franc even)? And the Holy Roman empire? What about the Commonwealth of Poland? The truth is, ethnicity is a lot like language, and follow the same rules language used to do.

We’ve squandered the ‘personal’ part of personal computing.

A lot of this tracking nonsense is enabled by services which rely on server side processing.

For example somewhere lower down someone mentioned an AI assitant to extract todos from your emails.

This might not be so bad if the AI was running on your machine. But of course it’s always running on some cloud server.

For another example, any of those Alexa like devices have to analyse your voice input serverside. If it could do text to speech with local processing then it would be possible to make the device much more respectful of your privacy.

If you want total contol

> actually they could be said to have less because for certain purposes such as defamation they are actually held to a higher standard

The higher standard you're referring to I think is the "actual malice" standard, but that applies when the target of the defamation is a public figure, regardless of whether the alleged defamer is a journalist.

"Commoditize your complement" means that cheap-to-provide yet valuable services will be offered for free, simply because it drives down the total cost of buying from their main profit center.

That's the entire point of this conversation, we want higher taxes and more people (voters) need to be convinced of this fact.

Arguably Reddit at least has niche communities which are small enough to avoid the problem of dogpiling and mass downvoting (except via brigading).

I can only speak from personal experience, which is of course limited. I smoked occasionally in my 20s, but not since (I'm middle-aged now). I've been friends and acquaintances with many people that smoke a lot. I see a trend among these people - not necessarily schizophrenia (I'm not a psychologist and probably wouldn't even notice a mild case) - but instead a consistent arrogance and self-importance. It's peculiar - they may be contributing very little to society (or maybe a lot), but regardless there's a sense of superiority that seems to crop up among them all. Maybe even narcissism?

I could be completely wrong. I don't express this to assert it, but rather to ask if anyone else has noticed anything similar.
This would not surprise me at all. But I'm curious to know if they got the causation backwards. Maybe people with schizophrenia just have a higher likelihood of smoking marijuana

I don't know much about Starlink, but isn't one point of Starlink that eventually it could even beat wired connections for distance latency? Ie it's a shorter and more direct trip to use Starlink to get from US West to US East, for example.

Though this is quite a ways out i imagine.

Best of all this idea works in current tech, and can get even better with future tech when Starlink starts going Satellite <-> Satellite, avoiding unnecessary land hops.

On the contrary, it's an objectively true statement, and everyone already knows the reasons why.

My opinion is that a lot of Americans are uneasy about government, pharmaceutical, and the media, all pushing the same narrative over a virus that has a 99% survival rate. After decades of pushing drugs on us, and using the government to mandate vaccines like HPV, regardless of effectiveness, and the media manipulating us at every turn, trust in these institutions is less than rock bottom. If Americans are not getting vaccinated it’s not the citizens fault, its these institutions that suddenly want us to trust them. Personally I’m waiting as long as possible, let everyone else do the beta testing.

Edit: I have had Covid as-well as everyone in my family.
The reason I threw that in is because I've personally worked on a few of these apps, and also some of the backing APIs the apps consumed.

I know first-hand that many of the ones that suffer from weird and annoying quirks would be a thousand times better if they had any reliable QA process (most don't), and were run by teams that were invested in the company's success.

Outsourced doesn't only mean 'to other countries', but in many cases to consultancies, since for some strange reason many media companies don't see their apps as being a core competency, so they farm it out, and the results are always 2nd-tier at best.

This is the exact symptom I had with using AT&T Fiber and GitHub, using “DMZ+ mode.” It sounds a lot like an MTU problem, and no, when I contacted GitHub they were absolutely flummoxed and couldn’t see any evidence of failure.

If you’re ever in a similar situation, try cloning over a different ISP or a VPN first. It’s pretty rare for a service like bitbucket to have a catastrophic failure like this without it being a downstream problem.
"Neither agency has provided additional updates on the status of Nauka, but Russian industry sources, posting online, claimed that the module suffered several problems after reaching orbit.

Kubernetes cluster changes potentially create issues for all services operating in that cluster.

Provisioning logic that is baked into an image means changes to one service have no chance of affecting other services (app updates that create poor netizen behavior, notwithstanding). Rolling back an AMI is as trivial as setting the AMI back in the launch template and respinning instances.

There is a lot to be said for being able to make changes that you are confident will have a limited scope.

Yes, it has all of the pitfalls of other kinds of NAT.

However, in 2021, blocking all traffic from entire subnets or NATted IPs is an extremely blunt defense and doesn't even work for certain kinds of attacks like UDP floods. "Websites" do not typically do their own traffic filtering or attack mitigation for this reason and many others. They leave that up to their upstream provider. And any provider worth their salt is paying big bucks for a system that can recognize and mitigate attacks based on traffic patterns and deep packet inspection while letting most of the "good" traffic through.
