Intel's ARK lies about how much RAM their CPUs can handle. For example, I have some SFF computers based on their Pentium Silver lines, that they claim can only support 8GB and I've successfully used it with 16GB. Same goes with 32GB of memory.

I would not be surprised if the i3 CPUs can handle much more than what Intel says they can.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think .tv domains are pretty pricey. They're loved by people who need a bulletproof domain for their sketchy business but I don't see how they would be useful as a disposable spam source that's going to get burned quickly anyways.
That's a surprisingly great idea. A mobile phone can be used as a server, and for their capabilities, they are cheaper than Raspberry Pi when with some issues especially. Out of curiosity I just found an offer for a used Pixel 6 Pro for 70 EUR, supposedly only broken screen and the rest is working, where it has 12GB RAM with CPU Octa-core (copypasting: 2x2.80 GHz Cortex-X1 & 2x2.25 GHz Cortex-A76 & 4x1.80 GHz Cortex-A55), that's a fairly good offer.

No, that has not happened in 15 years. Every bankruptcy since IndyMac has ended with depositors being made whole. The precedent is a lot older than the recent bank failures.
I’ve been thinking about this a bit more. What happens if the server operator bans a DID? Does that ban the DID across the whole network via federation? What if I run my own server? Does that make me un-bannable?

Is there even such a thing as DID bans or is everything handled via moderation and filtering? I’m guessing impersonation would still be an issue even if domain based handles solve most of the impersonation problem.

I'm really impressed with the quality of the output- backing it with search results seems to do a lot of good relative to ChatGPT's straight-up hallucinations.

How does it decide what search queries to run and which results to use? Any chance you could append the top sources to the output, maybe even highlight which claims are based on which sources?

Following that thread of thought, I'd love to be able to filter out commercial websites and blogspam as sources, or limit it to scientific publications and .edu/gov domains.

Nonetheless, this is a damn promising line of R&D.
It was this way until very recently, google "starlink lasers". The newer satellites have satellite-to-satellite laser links which can form a chain until they reach a satellite that is presently overhead of an earth station. SpaceX has now started selling the global ocean maritime product version of starlink which specifically advertises full ocean coverage worldwide. I recently saw a person's first hand experience of successfully using Starlink on a cross ocean voyage from Polynesia to Ecuador.

Most starlink traffic still is "up and back down again" to a satellite that's moving while simultaneously in view of the CPE and a starlink-run earth station.
For the use cases mentioned in the comments here, I don't think you really need a third party tool like this.

Connect your phone to a USB-C display and viola! Screen is mirrored and network, mouse and keyboard connected to the display are now connected to the phone.

There is also the Microsoft phone app for win10/11, and Samsung Dex.
Who knows how it will evolve, those are the same folks responsible for deprecating C++/CX and bringing back the WinRT development experience to COM/C++ like in 2000, before .NET came to be.

Eventually they got tired of C++/WinRT, left it half-done (see CppCon 2016 talk about future roadmap plans), and started Rust/winRT.

Would you mind publishing a EBNF or similar grammar spec? That would make the syntax clearer.
Back in the day, access to the Internet was very expensive in my locality. We only had mobile data with max 20GB per month, and after that - 7KB/s unlimited for ~20% of average local salary. Having no job, it was very hard to pay that amount for the Internet, so I came up with a solution. I have set up a cloud server for 10$/month, got couple of SIM cards with that internet plan, and started developing a Linux tunnel program, which would join bandwidth of multiple interfaces into one by directing packets to my server. The server then forwards the packets further. I hadn't used it for long but it was very fun and satisfying to do it.
> If I'm reading this study [0] right, it's about 10x more microplastics than rock salt, which makes sense if you think about it.

Yes, it does make sense, but that’s because micro plastics are everywhere we bother to look. In the air, in the water, in the fish, in animals, etc. However, that is no evidence that the micro plastics we get from salt are significant in any way compared to other sources, particularly considering how little of the stuff we actually eat. From an ecological point of view, getting it from the sea is much better than ripping mountains apart to extract it.

Notice the people you are following are referenced by URL.

That we can see entries of the form hostname/users/username in the output of a that specific curl command is proof that it is the identity of a user as defined by the ActivityPub protocol?

Shouldn't we be able to look at the ActivityPub specs and see how the identity of a users is defined?

Many prices change seasonally; comparing inflation to the rate 12 months ago accounts for any seasonal variance.
Webfinger is entirely separate from ActivityPub, and is already used by other things like e.g. RemoteStorage.

Even if we postulate that what you say is true (I don't agree it doesn't scale, and there are increasingly commercial offerings if you don't want to run your own and there will be more, but let's put that aside), none of that stops people from using webfinger. If you want more than one user on the domain, it requires at a minimum the ability to dynamically rewrite a URL to redirect to a static URL (or you can of course have a fully dynamic endpoint), otherwise it just requires the ability to serve up a single static file.

While I kind of like using DNS myself, and might have gone that way if starting from scratch without an alternative existing, the existence of webfinger and the fact it is in use for multiple things would have made me stop and think twice and just use webfinger.
It's interesting to consider how much of this advice OpenAI violates. They spent years doing relatively derivative work in a well hyped space with lots of big companies that were in fact competently executing on a big technological transition. It took them, what, seven years to get to the point of doing ChatGPT. They are mostly in the b2b space but clearly didn't start with a letter of intent.

In my experience they're all pretty much the same.

There is teaching-only/research-only and teaching-and-research.
teaching-and-research is the standard, research-only the elite, and teaching-only is usually seen as "not real professors".

Then for each of those the levels are student, temp, junior, senior.

They all have different names for some reason instead of straightforward ones, because egos.

Some of the combinations don't exist, in particular for teaching-only.

In general due to limited junior/senior positions, there is a massive amount of people at temp level, sometimes indefinitely.

The article above mostly rants about how the majority of the teaching is done by the teaching-only staff (as you would expect), and how they should be given more consideration. The truth is that the worth of a professor is measured by his research, not his teaching.
Not "probably". The government is the ultimate backer of the FDIC and would be obligated to step in if FDIC were somehow unable to cover its obligations.

No one wants to make micropayment decisions every time they visit a web page. Micropayments have been technically possible for decades and have never taken off for good reasons.
> There is zero reason for a language runtime to be opinionated about the database.

The API is extremely simple. It's little more than a hash map. That's hardly opinionated.

> All the good programming advice will tell you such a coupling is a bad idea.

That advice is outdated. Virtually any modern application will want a database, and this API can serve as a foundation for it – a foundation that conveniently already has many of the features (esp. global replication and consistency) that you will want and that are incredibly difficult to get right if you build them yourself. Think of this as the application's "file system". PaaS today usually doesn't provide direct disk access, so this is the low-level abstraction for persistent storage that is available. An abstraction that, in many cases, will in fact be all your application ever needs.

I think that the occupy movement was a domestic threat that genuinely caught them off guard because they were so focused on international threats due to the war on terror.

This iteration of the culture wars is an over active response to that threat, which is ironic because the war on terror was a hyper over response itself.
While it is interesting to see the work going on this, unless something really messes up node, I don't see any big adoption ever taking off, other than how egcs forced GCC to come back on track.
> for every news article I consider reading, I want to have that website extract a little bit of the money from that pile

I'd like that, too. A simple implementation that automatically deducts a payment on access might be promoting the same type of low-value content that's growing everywhere now, and which the GP called out: clickbait and stuff that enrages people pays well.

I don't know if a more complicated distribution scheme would help. People don't like dealing with complexity, and automatic metrics can be easily gamed, so I feel like such a system will tend to regress to the same behavior as a simple one, with more overhead.

There was an effort to introduce a micropayment system for content creators before, in Germany - maybe other elsewhere, too. In the early 2000s, when the web seemed to be full of interesting blogs, bloggers often had a "flattr" button, which would give them some money out of a monthly sum you could set. At the end of the month, everbody you "flattered" would get a share of your pile/allowance. I think there was a way to weigh how much they should get, compared to others.

Anyway, the system was made to reward creators with small amounts of money while keeping the transaction costs low.

It didn't really go anywhere for whatever reason. It seemed to disappear quietly after a year or two. Maybe it still exists, but I don't see the buttons anymore. I guess the economics didn't work out in the end.

Maybe it was too early? We have Patreon now, and it seems like people are adopting their approach. Interestingly, though, most of the time, it takes the form of subscriptions over payments for individual piece of content. (That payment model used to exist, but I haven't seen it in a while.)

So modern subscription models using Patreon seem to work well in supporting creators of interesting content, while there still isn't a micropayment pool for one-off access that I'm aware of. That makes me wonder what economic factors are at work here that can explain this, and shed some light on why a system like you're suggesting hasn't become mainstream yet.

To quote the spec:

'In ActivityPub, a user is represented by "actors" via the user's accounts on servers.'

and:

'All Objects in [ActivityStreams] should have unique global identifiers. ActivityPub extends this requirement; all objects distributed by the ActivityPub protocol MUST have unique global identifiers, unless they are intentionally transient (short lived activities that are not intended to be able to be looked up, such as some kinds of chat messages or game notifications). These identifiers must fall into one of the following groups:

1. Publicly dereferencable URIs, such as HTTPS URIs, with their authority belonging to that of their originating server. (Publicly facing content SHOULD use HTTPS URIs).

2. An ID explicitly specified as the JSON null object, which implies an anonymous object (a part of its parent context)'

and:

'All objects have the following properties:

id
The object's unique global identifier (unless the object is transient, in which case the id MAY be omitted).'

So a user is represented by an Actor, an Actor must have a global identifier, and that global identifier is the "id" field in the JSON. https://masto.ai/users/mg in your case.

(You may also search the ActivityPub spec for "webfinger"; it is not mentioned - it's a convenience offered by implementations like Mastodon, and not required by the ActivityPub spec at all; your interop with Mastodon will be harmed if you don't support it, but it'll work - users just need to input your url instead)

EDIT: to further underline the relationship of Webfinger to ActivityPub, look at the section for Actor's [1], and how the use of webfinger lookups violate the spec ("otherwise, the entered value should be considered invalid") - it's an extension/change used by things like Mastodon for user convenience, and not part of ActivityPub itself at all.

Even if the target system doesn't have explicit login attempt limiting, you still run into the natural limitation of target CPU time. It's common to have login attempt limiting just to avoid letting remote targets waste all your CPU time with bogus attempts.

The amount of passwords you can try against a single target with an online attack is extremely limited, not even enough for a decent sized dictionary attack. You would have to be using an absolute horrid password for the attacker to get a hit.

Online password attacks are only really viable when you don't care about the target. Just use tiny dictionary of a few thousand common username/passwords pairs and hit every single ip address on the internet.

Rightly so, if justified by the consequences—to the extent of causing injury or death.

As with other professions, civil, chemical engineering etc., when the outcomes are the same (people killed or injured etc.) then the punishment should also be the same.

Software design should be no exception to any other profession just because it's common for programs to have bugs.

Moreover, the profession of programming now calls itself Software Engeering, if it wants to play with the Big Boys then it must face the same consequences when things go wrong.

> French people couldn't be wrong: they consume plenty of rich food and they don't have American health problems.

And you know why your average American turns into an unhealthy tub of lard ?

Simple really:

1) Americans have a penchant for over-processed foods which in turn contain high-levels of "the wrong" fats and, of course, sugar (which in America is generally the horrible processed type, e.g. corn syrup) .
2) American portion sizes for one meal could feed an entire African family for a week, American portions are obscene
3) Americans are largely sedentary, and have a penchant for driving instead of walking
4) Americans have a penchant for intensive industrial farming which reduces the quality of the raw ingredient

Now, you may choose to try to argue over point (4) if you feel you must be patriotic and defend US agriculture. But points (1)–(3) are, regrettably hard truths.

It's not rocket science.

Yes, some people do have free money hanging around. It's what drives a large part of the economy. If you don't have an ethos of saving, don't have a family then (assuming a decent wage) your money will tend to go to your hobbies. For a lot of people, their hobby is basically buying things.

Steam sales encourage this behaviour though. I will have an intention to play a certain game. If I see it's heavily reduced now, it might make seem to make sense to buy it now even if I don't have the time to play it, rather than get it later when it might be full price.

But it doesn't necessarily need high subscriber rates in any one place to make lots of money. If you just focus on those high population areas, 1.7 billion people live in cities.
