About 40 networking devices spanning 3 properties (mostly Mikrotik). Around 24 cameras. Two NAS, each with 24TB. Around 30 network points. Two properties are linked via 60Ghz wireless connection. Third property linked via IPTunnel through Internet. Whole network is backed up with Li batteries, some charged with solar.
Starting to upgrade some of the network to 10Gbs.
Be careful not to jump the gun here. The vast majority of fact checking exists to call out stuff that's demonstrably false, and it's to their credit that social media platforms link a refutation.

But when you have a huge number of stories, there are going to be edge cases, and BMJ got snared by one here. As I understand it:

BMJ found legit problems with one vaccine's clinical trial. But this kind of thing gets seized on to promote a broad anti-vax narrative. Facebook's approach is to label it with the least-significant category, "needs context", i.e. please don't go overboard with drawing conclusions from this. But then they apply that label to all postings of the story, even ones who were sharing it with the subtext of "Pfizer is corrupt" rather than "don't get vaxxed".

Facebook claims that this category doesn't result in the story or poster being penalized, but I'm not inclined to believe that since the users were reporting that they got nasty messages saying their posting in general would get de-prioritized and show up less if they kept reposting such stories.
My setup is the following:

1. Ubiquiti ER-X

2. Ubiquiti AP Lite x 2 (upstairs and downstairs)

3. Inbuilt Cat6 cabling in house

The benefit of this approach is I get to use prosumer hardware but at reasonable cost (total < $350 AUD). For the AP's I have just setup via pairing on the mobile app and use the same SSID and passwords which allows for easy roaming.

I'm contemplating upgrading to an Ubiquiti dream machine pro to replace the ER-X for more ports and ability to have video recording & security cameras but really happy with current setup from a wifi performance and stability perspective.
I've done it a bunch, no bad experiences. It's extremely relaxing and leaves me in a better mood, so I'll do it again even if just for that reason.

I had some interesting small visual hallucinations, but nothing too major.

If you look statistics about young adults leaving home, and young adults who doesn't have a job (or don't earn enough to buy or rent a house), the correlation is pretty hard.
This is why we don't try to test it, yeah. Black starts take forever in part because there's no solidified procedure for it, but producing such a procedure would require causing the disaster we're trying to avoid.

So far nothing quite as bad as a real black start has yet happened, and here's hoping it never will.
Fritz!Box 7390 (cursed piece of crap) -> Wifi -> TP-Link WDR3600 that gives me Ethernet in a different subnet -> my stuff, including an old laptop that serves as a NAS and handles other stuff that needs to run constantly.

Actually, I think that the "right move" should be quite different: DONT STOP a service with a short deadline but DEGRADATE it with a long deadline.

If you STOP a service (or turn it to a PAID service) on short notice - and a service that is essential to people - then people will have to rush to find a solution... and will feel been extorted.

If you DEGRADATE the service more and more, people will slowly leave or upgrade to PAID, but they will have the choice.

Moreover, email is really a sensitive matter: it's a main point of contact for... well... email... but altogether for online service (IRS, website account, etc.) and in a way our digital life. So you can't just leave such a short notice. However, you have to let your FREE customer know that they have a choice to make quickly... so DEGRADATION is a good tradeoff I think

If you do a fair bit of router work as part of $dayjob then Mikrotiks are awesome. If you don't they are way more trouble than they are worth.

Mine has a permanent VPN to the office with a router protocol so only office traffic goes down the vpn and I use the built in DDNS and the wireguard server so that when we are visiting family my daughter can still watch her favorite videos.

Standard disclaimer: Office has additional firewalling and protection in place to limit damage my network can cause. Daughter has Down syndrome and this is a lot easier for her once she's played out and bored by all the talking. All stunts are by a trained internet idiot and don't try this at home.
If a lot of the power companies aren't willing to spend money on things like insulation and temperature sensors they are even less likely to spend what is necessary to automate a black start.

2 bedroom townhouse:

WRT3200ACM running OpenWRT with 2 aftermarket antennas: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B08HM3KBRH/ and https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00R1PA9EO/

XFinity-supplied cable modem.

Gigabit semi-managed switch TP-Link TL-SG105E for my office upstairs, connected with a 50 foot cat6 cable.

Pretty simple. OpenWRT sends logs to my raspberry pi 4 general purpose server. Backups are sent to borgbase.com

Don't really have any issues with this setup. DNS is nice and fast, wireless reaches the whole (admittedly small) house. We have a separate 2.4GHz wlan for devices/sensors/doorbell etc etc.

I added the antennas because under some conditions some devices in rooms furthest from the WRT3200ACM would slow down, and they appear to have fixed any connectivity issues.

600 Mbit fibre from Telenor to converter box with one RJ45 port. Cat6 from box to ISP-supplied router (but I could use whatever, there's no translation/bridging or whatever).

ISP-supplied wireless extender for the annex which gets ~ 200Mbit due to distance and walls, but better than the crap we used to have.

Native, full IPv6 with a /64 subnet so I have port 22 to one /128 destination (my old recycled HP used as a media server) open in the IPv6 firewall with an AAAA record pointing to it.

It sucks when I'm on a network without IPv6 but I can always use one of my Linodes as a jump host to reach it.

‘His family robbed the country’: personality cult of ex-Kazakh leader crumbles
Your example really summarizes the challenge with the AWS paradigm: namely that they want you to believe that the thing to do is to spread the the backend of your application across a large number of distinct data systems. No one uses DynamoDB alone: they bolt it onto Postgres after realizing they have availability or scale needs beyond what a relational database can do, then they bolt on Elasticsearch to enable querying, and then they bolt on Redis to make the disjointed backend feel fast. And I'm just talking operational use cases; ignoring analytics here. Honestly it doesn't need to be these particular technologies but this is the general phenomenon you see in so many companies that adopt a relational database, key/value store (could be Cassandra instead of DynamoDB eg like what Netflix does), a search engine, and a caching layer because they think that that's the only option

This inherently leads to a complexity debt explosion, fragmentation in the experience, and an operationally brittle posture that becomes very difficult to dig out of (this is probably why AWS loves the paradigm).
I always thought it was because of ActionScript 3
When Apple released iMessage and FaceTime respectively there weren't really good "standards" for them to adopt.

For iMessage there were desktop messaging standards like XMPP or the immature at the time RCS from cellular carriers. XMPP is not a great protocol for mobile devices with unreliable/changing network connections and background processing constraints. RCS was immature when iMessage was released and hadn't really been deployed by carriers or was deployed but not interoperable between them. It also requires a SIM and a cellular service. So it's a non-starter for non-phone devices. Additionally it doesn't offer E2EE without proprietary extensions and running private relays like Google has done.

For FaceTime there was never a really good video telephony standard to implement. FaceTime uses some existing standards but all over Apple infrastructure. Remember FaceTime has always been an over the top data service and like iMessage has no tie to carriers. When FaceTime was released it didn't even work over cellular, it was WiFi only.

So what standards should Apple have adopted? As a minority player in the mobile or computer markets which of their own services should they have pushed as standards?

Obviously standards are the way to go since WhatsApp, Signal, Telegram, WeChat, Facebook Messenger, Skype, and Google's 400 different messaging systems all implement the same standar...oh wait they don't.

Messages is a value-add for Apple's platforms. Google isn't bending over backwards making Nest devices work with Apple ecosystems and Microsoft doesn't offer an XBox SDK for the PlayStation. WhatsApp isn't opening their messaging for Apple to adopt. Companies compete with one another, making products and offering services to attract customers. Why is this unintelligent and narrow minded when it's Apple?
Yes. Many things are easier with HVDC, except producing the hardware. It's also far more efficient at transmission.

The AC power grid is mostly a historical accident; it's only been recently that we gained the ability to fully control DC power at grid scale.
Gigabit fibre. Openwrt router. And then a proxmox server doing various things like pihole and local caches for Debian apt.

If you only do one or the other you are effectively trying to p-hack your way to health, as these are likely highly associated datasets. Those who live long are likely to be doing both and living a so-called healthy lifestyle.
That's a nice idea, but not actually true.

>Now the procedure is: roll both dice. To find the total, choose whichever of the two uppermost faces shows more dots. To find the red number, take the red number shown on the even (R) die, and modify it by the amount shown on the odd (C) die if any. If an addition takes you above 6, subtract 6 from the result; if a subtraction takes you below 1, add 6. [...] The mechanism I've described above works nicely on paper, but unfortunately it has a practical disadvantage, which is that it's unusually sensitive to imperfections in the dice.

While this is interesting, it hardly seems like potential nonuniformity due to unbalanced dice is the big issue here. I'd consider this an unusually complicated and awkward dice counting mechanic in a ttrpg. For a casual boardgame, it is beyond the pale.

That piece you linked is equally (if not more) biased as the original Thracker piece. Honestly, I've lost a lot of respect for SBM based on that post, as it's a political argument.

In general, it's incredibly sad that Covid has lead to such politicisation around vaccines and trials. It seems (to me, at least) that most of what people (SBM, the FB fact-checkers) are concerned about is other people using the information "incorrectly".

Like, fundamentally, this is an impossible problem to solve (none of us can control others interpretations of things) and the attempts to solve this "problem" are likely to result in much worse outcomes.

> At the same time you have the Soviets, who are now often seen as the second biggest evil, but this was not at all clear back then. Lets remember that the Soviets had just conducted the Katyn massacre for example. The Soviets had invaded Finland and all the Baltic states. And their treatment of those places was far harsher then the Nazis were in Norway. 10000s of people from the Baltic states were transported to the Gulags at that time and most were never seen again.

You forgot Soviet invasion of Poland and shipping of roughly half a million of Polish citizens to Gulags. In the 18 months between the attack and the subsequent "amnesty" in 1941 (Stalin joining the Allies after being attacked by Hitler), already 50k of them were dead from cold, hunger, tortures and executions.

In my opinion many are moving to Substack and Gettr because they are tired of having to fit into a narrow margin of permitted speech. Having to measure ones speech against unknown formulas plus the known ideological opposing views imposes the risk of losing ones account, history and relationships on the platform. I believe this takes away the value of being on the platform at all. There will be some with fringe views but that is a price that comes with having less censorship. People can have open discussions and debates using their own critical thinking to decide for themselves their own beliefs and opinions align rather than a panel doing the thinking for them.

For what it's worth there is a brief video interview with a doctor that picks apart some of the things mentioned in the censored videos but even his video is at risk of being pulled from Youtube and the hosts acknowledge this. [1] I think it would be nice if we could hear open debates on all sides of all topics again some day.

I suspect that with time the newer platforms may be coerced into conformity and the game of musical chairs will continue.

Switched to the Google WiFi about 2 years ago and I love it. It just works. The mesh is 4 large, provides WiFi / Internet for 3 households (7 people, about 30 devices, iPhones, iPads, Chromecasts, PS4, Smart TVs, printers & iMacs) and takes absolutely zero maintenance.

Only thing I have to when adding an old new device (printers!) is set the WPA to 2 when adding it, then switching back to WPA3.
Silver-based photographs have lasted over a hundred years (as have actual books) so I think we're probably ok for archival media. There was a process I knew of years ago that replaced the silver in photos with gold or other metals, so that ought to nail it.
It runs into the same problem as long-term computer media, which is that the knowledge to read it may be lost. There was a period of time when nobody could read ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs, for instance, even though the hieroglyphs themselves survived.
This reflects my opinion on the current state of the software industry.

The seemingly-infinite VC money being thrown around around means you can create a startup, raise some money and provide a comfortable salary & industry experience for yourself and your friends for a few years, regardless of whether the company "makes it" in the end or whether the business problem is even solvable.

At this point solving the business problem is no longer the primary objective. The longer you can drag out the process of "solving" this problem the longer you & your employees can enjoy the salary and build "experience". So instead of a simple solution that needs a team of 5, you end up with an engineering playground that needs 50 people (and associated managers, scrum masters, etc) spread across many teams just to keep the lights on. The outcome becomes endless busywork, self-inflicted problems to brag about solving on your engineering blog (every startup has got to have one obviously) and next AWS conference to attract more employees looking for this kind of environment and make yourself look "serious" in the eyes of VCs that keep bankrolling the disaster.

The business problem, if it gets solved at all, is a secondary concern since the VCs happily keep throwing more money into the dumpster fire and some bigger idiot might even buy out the company regardless of its inefficiency.
Don't tell them that! Obviously they were strangled in the crib by...competition? I don't know. I don't understand some people's arguments anymore.

Piggybacking on to this... I've currently split my home network into multiple VLAN, so that the IOT stuff can't access the "trusted" devices (or internet, depending on device).

Alternatively, practice single table design: structure your table keys in such a way that they can represent all (or at least most) of the queries you need to run.

This is often easier said than done, but it can be far less expensive and more performant than adding an index for each search.
