No. You would also have to pay for memory usage and bandwidth.

Millions of requests for a static file is easily done on a dedicated server in a few seconds if the file is small. $0.2 per request is very expensive.

To put things in to perspective: If you buy a very cheap new server for $1K, then you would be able to handle small static requests worth thousands for dollars each day according to AWS pricing. That's a nice return on investment!
Good diet, exercise, getting enough sleep, yoga, mental math.
At these kinds of bandwidths, it is extremely noisy.

Remember socket AM4, which added support for PCIe 4.0 with chipset X570? Originally, the idea was that non-X570 boards would also have PCIe 4.0, as it doesn't actually depend on the chipset - just the CPU. Turns out most boards simply weren't capable of handling the additional bandwidth, so it was eventually restricted to boards which were designed for it. And that's at one-eighth the bandwidth of PCIe 7.0!

Great, but these are unsubstantiated at this point. It's like you think that there are no mechanisms in place to ensure that elections are run honestly.
Orthodox Jews learn Aramaic in order to study the Talmud, they learn it at a young age, does that count as native speakers?

The Irony: the Neo-Assyrian Empire was the greatest empire ever, for its time. They destroyed the kingdom of Judah and the first temple in Jerusalem, drove the Jews into Babylonian captivity. Now who are among the last speakers of the Aramaic language?

I find it funny that people are perfectly fine using the appstore and not being able to just download apps from a website (easily) on mobile (amny even say it is a feature), but when it is not possible on desktop than it is somehow a massive usability issue that users never be able to adjust to (apart from the fact that MS and Apple also try to push you to their appstores).
The workflows enabled by Jupyter and iPython address some of your biggest concerns.

You have references to previous outputs, don't recompute things, and in browser can have GUI interactive elements. You can likely find live streaming monitors too. Though that starts to break what the environment is best at: composing an edited, rational path through a process based on interactive exploration, trial and error.

I think we're not factoring in that people will react. We're already all starting to realize that the free for all is getting quite hard to navigate. My hunch is that within 10 years, we will start to see an "information immune system" develop. This could take many forms. For example, self regulatory organizations for news, or actual regulations. Like we have with food products, the use of certain words is regulated. Or it could be trusted information filters becoming the norm, the way we trust our browsers to warn us of insecure websites. Or simply some changing cultural norms, like we saw happen with cigarettes. Like it's totally fine today for news outlets to just use Twitter as a source. And maybe the bar will get higher over time. I'm spit balling about solutions, but I don't think society can or will tolerate some dystopian world where truly no one knows what's real for very long.

The short of it is that I fought alongside YPG against ISIS nearly a decade ago, and some boneheads at CBP/DHS flagged my passport. Ever since they've had a craw up their ass to try to catch me doing something, and problematic detentions whenever I re-enter the US (as US citizen with valid passport). The last time was the worst, where I got some particularly corrupt individuals who were willing to lie to get a warrant. Of course nothing was found, because in reality I'm not doing bad/illegal things overseas nor at the border.
You've made a lot of assumptions that aren't true. Highly recommend actually researching them.

You can absolutely have price oracles of crypto assets without any interaction offchain, as you can use uniswap market prices and if they differ from any other exchanges arbitragers will make a profit by fixing that difference. But that is another oracle that is different from chainlink.

Chainlink is decentralized. It could possibly be attacked with enough effort and money to destabilize things but that is a totally different threat vector than the government restricting trading to services it doesn't like or censoring users.

Fei is backed only by decentralized assets.

UST was backed by nothing which is why it collapsed, Fei is over collateralized. You don't get any rewards for holding Fei.

You also say that the party in question, "revealed the recording". The comment in question above regarded a random citizen filing a complain with police that they have been illegally recorded. It is one thing to make an illegal recording, and then publicly release it, creating a record of your crime, and having a random person claim you made an illegal recording, and police opening an investigation based on your unsubstantiated allegation. Even if they were so inclined, the overwhelming majority of police departments have a massive queue of crimes to look into than an illicit recording that may or may not exist.

Cost is the major consideration. If the Cat5 cable was installed during construction, it might be very difficult to pull in replacement cabling. The labor and associated management, administration costs rapidly mount up. Unless a significant proportion of owners want the same, you might be better off seeing if you can simply upgrade your unit's connection. Even that might involve new conduits, etc which you might need to get professionally installed.
You kinda have to read some of his work to know, and it does feel like a secret club with fairly exclusive membership - I don't really belong, I've only ventured into the shallows thus far :)

But the deal is:

Prose that creates a jungle-like density of meaning through the use of long sentences, creatively unusual descriptions using unexpected combinations of words with meanings just slightly twisted to fit into the size of the 'box that's available'.

Prose that acutely both describes and evokes the feel of specific times and places.

I probably miss more than half of the subtlety of his work through lack of familiarity with the 'time and place' stuff. I enjoy the structure created by the delicately woven words, however.

An abridged quoting of Hunter S. Thompson for a particularly memorable evocation of time and place (because this quote is more coherent and memorable than Pynchon):

Strange memories on this nervous night in Las Vegas. Five years later? Six? It seems like a lifetime...San Francisco in the middle sixties was a very special time and place to be a part of...

History is hard to know, because of all the hired bullshit, but even without being sure of "history" it seems entirely reasonable to think that every now and then the energy of a whole generation comes to a head in a long fine flash, for reasons nobody really understands at the time--and which never explains in retrospect, what actually happened...

There was madness in any direction, at any hour. If not across the bay, then up the Golden Gate or down 101 to Los Altos or La Honda...You could strike sparks anywhere. There was a fantastic universal sense that whatever we were doing was right, that we were winning...

So now, less than five years later, you can go up a steep hill in Las Vegas and look West, and with the right kind of eyes you can almost SEE the high water mark--that place where the wave finally broke and rolled back.

The VST support is on our roadmap and it's coming fast!

Currently how I remove noise is to cut it out. Yes, it breaks it into multiple clips, but we have features like "Select All from playhead" and "Select All Clips on Track" to make operating on multiple clips easy. Oh, we also have marquee selection support.

This is a common argument but it completely ignores any idea of efficiency in learning or learning outcomes that benefit the student.

Most people would get way more out of studying a culture and its context by directly studying that and in way less time. This time saved one could spend as 4 semesters of specialized cultural studies, one full cultural study abroad semester, or learning about other things (comparative linguistics?).

There's also the idea that you can only fully appreciate works of literature in their original language, but learning Russian to appreciate Dostoevsky is overkill and many people love his work who don't know the language. Learning about other cultures in translation is arguably going to be superior since any translation you can do is with skills way below fluency.
Memory may be relatively plentiful, but CPU is not, if you want decent battery life.

This is why suspending and re-activating applications smoothly is important. There must be a standard way to tell the app: "you'll stop executing in 5 seconds, save your state" and "you are thawed after a long period of inactivity". I suspect that this may already be present to support sleep and hibernation.
DbC moves the specification of what a function should do out of doc-strings and test cases and into machine readable code!

With fuzzing today, you send one stream of input into an entire program, hope for a crash, then figure out where in the entire execution of the program up to that point things went wrong. You have to figure out how to generate inputs that will exercise every pathway. However, if you had pre and postconditions for every function, you could automatically fuzz individual functions!

You don't have to wait for 99% of inputs to get rejected because they don't have the right header. The "unit-fuzzer" would only generate valid inputs for the function it is testing, and check that the function produces valid output, as well as valid inputs for the functions it calls.

If you have n functions of complexity k, fuzzing or verifying an entire program takes time k^n. However, if you have pre/postconditions, you can verify every function with k*n work. If you have enough cores, you can do this in parallel in k time. That's insane.

Noise is a big one. The more levels you have, the more likely it is noise is going to turn a 0 to a 1 or a 1 to a 2, for example. It also requires more complicated switching transistors, because you can't rely on things being simply on or off, but rather have to generate a number of intermediary voltages.
Doesn't make sense for a couple of reasons.

First, unless the satellite / bomb dispenser happens to be in the right orbit at the right time, you'd have to do some significant maneuvering on orbit. This is expensive in terms of energy/fuel. By the time you put the dispenser over or on the correct path to target, it might not even be faster than a conventional endo- or exo-atmospheric ballistic missile (SRBM/IRBM or ICBM).

Second, long range nuclear strike is one of the USAF's justifications for its silo missile and bomber fleet, particularly the B-2 and just-started-production B-21 Raider (LRS-B). They're going to have some awkward questions to answer if a big part of their signature stealth penetration bomber's mission could have been done by another system all along. Hell, the USAF has been desperately trying to come up with non-nuclear roles for their existing nuclear delivery systems ("Prompt Global Strike", aka "hitting someone in the head with a reentry vehicle full of concrete going 7000 m/s") for years.

Third, it's overly complex for that role. An ICBM warhead dispenser is something that exists; it's called the "bus" on MIRV missiles. If you wanted to put a bomb dispenser in orbit, you don't need a cool spaceplane. You just put a slightly bigger engine (or an extra stage) onto a traditional MIRV bus, so it has the delta-V to get into a stable LEO and sit there until you use or de-orbit it. The Soviets played with this concept extensively during the 1980s, and their "Sarmat" superheavy ICBM is probably capable of it. This was considered pretty destabilizing at the time (since it would avoid north-facing early warning systems) and was banned by treaty. So the US would be opening a can of worms back up that it seemingly tried hard to close in the 1980s, and it's a weirdly complicated way of doing it, vs. just building a superheavy ICBM like Russia did.

A lot of the complexity of a Shuttle / delta-plane design is related to getting back from orbit. A weapons dispenser, whether nuclear or kinetic ("tungsten rods from God") wouldn't need to be recoverable at all. Or if you really insist on that as a requirement, it could use a cheap-and-cheerful Apollo-style splashdown design. Why have it land like a plane? Nuclear weapons are pretty robust. You could splash one into the ocean going pretty fast and still have it be recoverable.

Which leads me to my personal theory: the design only makes sense if the intent is to bring things back. Fragile things. The NASA Shuttle landed like it did, because it had fragile humans on board. But why would a remotely-piloted vehicle need to? Maybe if it's bringing back things from orbit that were never meant to land on Earth in one piece.
Alan Moore's not associated with HBO's Watchmen show. In fact, if you're seeing a version of his work on TV, in movies, or... any other format than his original comic you can be assured not only does he have nothing to do with it but he likely despises it.

I like this quote from Lindelof - the HBO Watchmen showrunner - on Quartz's piece for the show's debut[1], “There is no version of Watchmen I could make that would please him. Not only that, but there’s no version of Watchmen I could make that he would ever watch.”.

Moore's a genius and the HBO Watchmen show's amazing. I adore that both coexist.

It'd be interesting to see a desktop system with almost everything running over PCIe. You could drop the chipset entirely at that point.
Wolves have adapted to be good at deer killing: sharp teeth, front-facing stereo vision, pack behaviour, etc. Deer have adapted to be good at not being eaten by wolves: large eyes, peripheral vision, skittish temperament, herd behaviour, etc.

Wolves would eat every deer if they could. They don't not because they think it's a bad idea, but because either they can't because the deer are good at not being eaten, or when they get too close to that goal, they run out of deer and starve into a smaller population that lets the deer recover.

Any creature that "wins" the "arms race" against its prey either finds new prey or goes extinct. And species that loses the arms race better hope their predators have no other prey and starve to extinction before they all get eaten, or go extinct themselves.

The only reason there's a predator-prey balance at all is a kind of survivor bias: anything not in balance is already filtered out.

Not all balanced relationships are predator-prey. Viruses aren't really predators as such, but they still evolve to a balance against immune systems. If they get too good, they burn out their host populations and go extinct (SARS, say, though there have surely been countless natural examples over history). If they don't adapt in time to better immune systems, again, curtains. You could say smallpox as an example, though the last step in the arms race was an Outside Context Problem[1] from the virus's perspective.

Similarly, any overly-large step in weaponry can be just as deadly as not enough: working Star Wars missile defense could easily have resulted in the end of the world, as would not keeping up with the Soviets. That shaky balance is partly deliberate, and, if you're into the anthropic principle, partly also survivorship bias.
