If you don't mind it running in a data center in Europe, you could rent servers from Hetzner for ca. $400 per month for 220TB. I'm sure they can provide a few PB on the spot. Spread them across their locations and you have geo redundancy too. Next to no egress fee also allows to have a copy with another provider.

> VPN providers shouldn't be allowed to claim that VPNs protect you from malware or that they do a better job at protecting data in transit than vanilla SSL.

That's... not exactly true, given what definition of "protecting" you follow. VPNs definitely can protect against some forms of attacks that plain old HTTPS can't:

- malicious QoS/routing policies at the ISP (or a public WiFi operator) that, say, down-prioritise or throttle stuff like YouTube, or route it through backed-up links (German Telekom was infamous for bad peering towards high traffic sites including Youtube [1] or where they all but extorted money from "double paid traffic" from server owners [2])

- ISPs hijacking DNS for a myriad of reasons (NXDOMAIN ad-hijacks, government-ordered censorship, thinking they can offer "improved" DNS service by simply answering all requests going out on UDP53 with their own servers [3], ...)

- ISPs and WiFi operators listening on DNS requests or doing traffic analysis to sell to advertisers [4]

- other devices on the network attacking your machine (e.g. in a coworking space) - proper VPN software like Cisco will "cut off" all communication with the outside with the exception of the remote VPN endpoint IP and DHCP.

The part about malware is more sketchy, but in case the VPN operator uses something like PiHole and other shared lists of malware domains and IPs to blacklist common-known vectors and C&C sites, it is a valid statement.

Nobody is confused by the current choices. Saying that the iPhone can't do the thing today that we want it to do in the future is just repeating a fact that is literally the reason for the discussion in the first place.

Outright play time isn't the right way to measure the value of a game (or any other piece of art or entertainment) unless your sole purpose is to spend time. I value Half Life 2 hundreds of times higher than skribbl.io even though I probably have more hours in the latter.
> if I look at the top amount of spent time in game (the "value" per spend money) it's some small dev management games (Factorio, Banished, Rimworld, X4)

I don’t care for those kinds of games at all. That’s the problem with most indie games: they rely solely on gameplay. Me, personally, I’m more into story driven games, and that additional budget buys you better writers, actors, mo-cap, etc.

> the type of game that most AAA developers just refuse to make in the first place. Most of "singleplayer story driven ones" I've played also fall out of AAA space

I’m mainly a PlayStation gamer and they release a lot of story driven single-player games. It’s the may reason I stick to PS. God of War, Horizon, Uncharted, TLoU, etc. are all amazing games and impossible to make on a small budget.

You are arguing from engineering point of view. Even if you come with very solid case, it may not work. Reasons for this decision may not be engineering related, and any reasoning you come up is simply irelevant!

Well, it is. If opium is more valuable than food crops, farmers should grow opium. Then they can buy the equivalent amount of food and still have money to spare.

That's how the economy works. It's called opportunity cost. You should always create the most valuable thing you can, assuming of course that you can sell all of it.
Most GPUs run threads in groups of 16 or more, with one instruction pointer shared by all of the threads in a single group.

So if some threads need to take an IF-branch, and some need to take an ELSE-branch, both paths are executed in sequence, with all threads in the group executing in lock-step, and a per-thread mask disabling the effects of the instructions that aren't needed for each specific thread.

If you do this enough times, with sufficiently complicated branching, you'll quickly negate any efficiency gain you get from the massive parallelism.

That's a bad excuse. In fact I think editions are possible without modules at all, if you are really willing to fix this issue. Tying epochs to modules suggests that they don't think this is a huge issue to start with.

One possible design is to assign editions to all preprocessed tokens. This implies the edition definition should be some sort of pragma (say, `#pragma STDCXX EDITION 2023`) and preprocessors should add pragmas themselves if tokens with a different edition are transcluded into other tokens. Implementations with integrated preprocessor and parser may also use a simpler internal representation to convey editions as well. Now `_` would be a normal identifier in past editions and a placeholder in a new edition, however they are passed through macros. For example:

#pragma STDCXX EDITION 2023
// Hereafter `_` is parsed as `_2023` internally
#define GUARD() auto _ = make_guard()

#pragma STDCXX EDITION 2020
// Hereafter `_` is parsed as `_2020` internally
{
GUARD();
GUARD(); // Okay, equivalent to `auto _2023 = make_guard();`
foo(&_); // Up to the proposal author, but P2169 suggests that
// this `_` should refer to the second `_2023`
}
auto _ = make_guard(); // Okay, equivalent to `auto _2020 = make_guard();`
auto _ = make_guard(); // Nope, `_2020` can't be defined more than once in the same scope

Of course there are more questions to answer. For example what would `#` and `##` do to editions? Should the current edition reset after `#include` finishes? (I think so.) How would we compute the edition for specific syntax from constituent tokens? (A systematic approach would be to collect a set of all editions used in syntactic tokens, and if not all editions in that set result in the same result, to issue an error.)

But I still argue that this design is simple, checks all checkboxes as long as open questions are decided, and can be independently deployed. And this token-level tracking is not something alien, it's required to give more accurate diagnostics anyway---and other languages like Rust have even used it to implement things like macro hygiene.
I meant it in terms of whether your question is about the reordering or the direct threading vs naive switch-loop.
> the rules followed? Maybe family v. friend v. work usage, or such?

Given that the phenomenon happens in all languages, especially where linguistic regions meet, you would find usage influenced by

* brevity of pronunciation (e.g. “chic”, “déjà-vu”)
* preference for local coinage and accent
* dominant regional usage (e.g. computer and automotive terminology)
* *prestige* (e.g. historical EN borrowings from FR, especially for food; computer terminology; “je ne sais quoi”)
* humour, sarcasm (e.g. in Quebec, the term *bloke* is used by FR speakers to refer to EN speakers)
How do you make a distinction between the language they speak in Castile(s) and the one that use in other regions and is official in all Spain? You can't.

I speak Spanish but I'm not Castilian and has no relationship with those two regions (Castile-Leon and Castile-La Mancha).

I came on-line at the tail end of it, when the denizens of the old were trying to find their footing in the new. IRC, mailing groups, early phpBB boards. This means I could've missed some stronger forms of gatekeeping, but the ones I do remember were all what I'd consider pretty good and desirable: it was gatekeeping based on knowledge, or interest in getting one. That is, all natural gates where the act of crossing them ensured you also could enjoy and contribute to the commons. And, importantly, they were mostly gating only write access, not read access.

The overall feel was, the gatekeeping served to bounce off trolls (before that name was common), and to redirect clueless newbies onto a path where they could either go away, or stay, learn a little bit, and then arrive at the gates again, only to find them wide open. Contrast that with the "cozy web", where the gatekeeping just tries to protect the community from the entire outside world. That's a huge change in overall feel - friendly and inviting vs. apprehensive and afraid. Viewing people as potential friends by default, vs. viewing them as potential enemies.

> and making fun of the normies ("I may be a nerd but look at Bill Gates, one day I'll be your boss.")

RE that, I may be biased, but I find it fully justified. It's not like nerds won this in any way - STEM interests, mastery of skills and concept outside of normie culture approved list (i.e. arts and performances - sports of every kind, playing or singing music, painting, writing, etc.), intellectually deep fiction, and clear thinking in general are still frowned upon and actively discouraged by the society.

While the "revenge of the nerds" memes, "Jocks being bosses in high school, nerds being bosses at work" was a good joke / dream to discharge some frustrations over, it didn't materialize either. On the contrary - if you look carefully, most of the successful bosses are high-school jocks too, and I'm talking in fields like finance and tech too. That's because entrepreneurship and playing on the market is a jock's game, not nerd's game. You win it by looking good, talking smooth, and not caring much about the accuracy of what you say - not by knowing a lot, having strong mental models, and treating truth as valuable for its own sake.

> It was a culture I really didn't enjoy and I mostly stayed out of because everyone seemed so interested in exclusivity.

Unless you're talking about those much earlier communities, way before Eternal September, I have a different view. Exclusivity can be good, and back in the IRC/early phpBB era, most exclusivity was of this kind - that is, anyone was welcome, they just had to show minimum effort up front. Contrast that with today's "cozy web", where everything is exclusive by default, and the exclusivity is of the bad kind: secret clubs to which you get invited by existing members and/or both write and read access are behind gates that require great and ongoing investment of time and effort (i.e. keeping up with the flow of the live chat).

Maybe it's the nerd in me showing, but the cozy web is way too personal in this sense.

Memoization is state. As a functional programming maximalist myself, I know it hurts a little bit, but still, Caching/Memoization is statefulness.

Honestly I just think the concept of Son/Radarr doesn't translate well to music, I find Lidarr fiddly in general.

In particular I'd add to your list that the overnight scans to update cover art are an absolute mess. It's not so big a deal on my libraries in Sonarr and Radarr, but for Lidarr? Jesus Christ. I have reasonably sized music library (~400/500 gig), and every night Lidarr starts phoning out to check, for every single album and artist, whether the associated cover art or artist image has changed. This takes hours, and is completely unnecessary, and cannot be turned off. I've resorted to just blocking the addresses it does this on, but this breaks things when I try and use it to add new music.
Damn, if I found it 6 months ago it would have saved me a lot of time...
This would make sense if not for the claim that they list the same drivers as the replacement part for both models. Or do they when picking up the order do the testing to see if it's a 595 or 555 part?

I'm bilingual in English and German, but when I use "Kindergarten" or "Uber" in an English sentence, that's still English, while when I use "Sorry" in a German sentence, that's still German.

I call it two extremes because a lot of people insist on viewing them as Completely Different Things. After all, they have opposite names - "right wing" and "left wing".

>I see words like “flakes” and “derivations,” and I currently don’t know what they mean.

>So far, I don’t get how it’s deterministic.

To make nix deterministic you can specify a hash in non-flakes (or a git rev) for your dependencies, but flakes make this easier. When you "run" a flake (be it nix build, nix shell, nix develop), nix pulls the latest (if no explicit rev given in the flake.nix already) version of whatever is specified in flake.nix that it can find, and creates a `flake.lock` file that specifies the exact version that was used. This file is very similar to cargo's Cargo.lock, and specifies the exact version that was captured by ref/hash. The next time nix is "run", it uses the lock file to get the exact same version as it had previously.

One can develop a flake.nix locally, install, check if everything works, and alternatively change the refs in the lock file to make everything work. When this is done you can move the nix and lock file to another machine and get the same exact build there (with the exception of architecture differences).

Because you can put flake.nix and flake.lock inside of git, you can also share the exact same dependencies with other people using a repository. Whenever I see a repository using these I know that building will be a breeze because I don't have to do any dependency hunting.
