Been running OPNsense for about four years now, without much hiccups. It’s been more or less a set and forget system to me.

I’ve been running on a small Protectli box and mainly using it for normal firewall stuff, Snort and as a Wireguard server.
It would be interesting to have blog posts about the optimizations that were made.
Laser is for satellite to satellite communication so far.

As a sibling noted, people do that. But disk space is cheap, and you aren't really losing much other than disk space for unused portions of the OS that are in a container, but what you gain is a normalized environment that's easy to develop for, test, and add to as needed.
This is because each app has their own private keychain (separate from the saved passwords) which is not cleared when the app is deleted. Apple tried to change the behavior and have it wiped on delete, but many developers complained. This allows apps to track you across installs of the app.
> Is it unethical to use accessibility tools that cannot see visual ads?

Arguably, in a black and white sense I think so. In a practical sense no. You wouldn't expect someone who's blind to get a free meal at a restaurant just because they are blind. From a practical point of view implementing ads for the visually impaired probably costs more than the ads gain, and therefore a company would rather not, but if a company implemented an accommodation so that the ad could be experienced by the impaired person, then I would argue not experiencing that ad is unethical.

> Is it unethical to use a computer that isn’t associated with you?

The point is applying Kant's categorical imperative. If we took the idea of using ad block and made it a rule that everyone must follow, websites would not be able to fund themselves because they fund themselves by showing ads which creates a contradiction and therefore using adblock is unethical.

You can equivocate to try to justify the behavior, but that doesn't change that for most of the web, you are provided a web page in exchange for ads.

Companies are taking your data and selling it because they can, and you don't know the value of your data, so that is arguably theft and almost certainly unethical too. Poorly specified contracts are also unethical. When you visit a website, you don't know what you are giving up or the price you are paying. That's wrong.

I am a little sad there is no wide spread doxxing of the owners of adtech/data broker companies to force the ethics discussion in congress.
They kind of have it[0] with ECS deployments but it’s being retired in November.

Installing it isn't really enough, you want updates. Protectli provide instructions to compile it yourself, so even if they stopped providing binary releases, you could DIY it; well worth the premium for the security conscious in my opinion.
I am pretty sure HFT is the only reason the average joe can trade in the first place and can definitely say that X's stock is worth Y price. Otherwise you would have to trust the broker to give you a correct estimate.
That's hypervisor's (or some theoretical HAL's) job. While those can also be called an OS - I meant, there's no need for a full-fledged one, like Linux kernel.
Hey thanks, Daneel - A bit of accountability always helps!
It's difficult to comprehend what's going on here without it being spelled out because it really is that dumb. For an Android app to connect to BLE devices, it needs the location permission. An Android app with the location permission gets access to gps location. It's not possible to allow an app to connect to a BLE device without also giving the app access to the location API.
If they still have credit they are not short on money by definition. When (where) people have no credit, they spend only what they must or less than that.
this is what u are supposed to do, but people generally are lazy and for complex binaries or programs this can be a bit of a fiddley task honestly. you can write scripts which dump out all you need if u want. when people only had 'jails' still i think this was more common. rapid development kills all :D
Thank you; understood. I've just looked at the Wikipedia definition[0] as well, which is a little different, but I get the point you're making.

I haven't thought about this enough, but one thing I'd note is that HFT is risk-taking, and taking a risk generally has the possibility of profit or loss.

A second thing would be that the phrase "society's resources" is a bit dangerous, as it might let us think that the money they're using is somehow everyone's money. When in fact they're spending their money on this, hoping to make a profit.

In retrospect I probably shouldn't have made such a claim, since I really don't know much about Jordan Peterson and his views.

Because the main point of Docker is to allow you to run programs in their own OS. It became popular as a software distribution method for typical Linux software that is not self-contained - requires a ton of system dependencies and spews itself all over the filesystem.

If your program doesn't do that - e.g. most Rust and Go programs which are a single statically linked binary - then there's very little reason to use Docker in the first place.

People will say "but you still want to containerise things!" or "what about orchestration?" and sure those are some incidental benefits now, but they only really happened because everyone was more or less forced to use Docker to actually run apps.

Docker is a workaround for shitty software.

Those one wheel things are very dangerous, if the motor cuts out or overloads it pitches the nose forward and slams you into the ground. A 4 wheel electric board is safer, it turns into a regular board if the electrics die or you can just jump off at low speeds. I use a Wowgo 3X which is about as close to a Boosted as you can still buy today.

I work in this space. This is only going to continue this way. Companies are increasingly worried about their data, both from a reputation standpoint and a legal standpoint. Even with a SOC2, many companies will simply issue a questionnaire out of policy. It cost them nothing.

My biased answer is to use one of the SaaS products that automate this (I work for one).

If you don’t want to use a 3rd party, they do become easier over time. They’re still a mental drain to do manually, but you’ll find patterns in the questions that you’ll learn to answer pretty easily.
chatGPT is amazing if you have not mastered the language you are writing in. its what it is for. give it some text, have it rewrite it. that its generated by it doesnt mean any content was produced by it. often ppl just use it to rephrase. imho thats what its for. (hard to tell tho which is which :D)
> By the way all of the complaints in this post can be solved if OP uses a PaaS solution.

This statement is untrue. PaaS offerings just trade one set of problems for a maybe slightly smaller but mostly the same set of problems. I actually can't find a single complaint in the article that is solved by PaaS solutions.

I guess it depends on what we meant when we talk about OIDC, but in system-to-system authentication (e.g. GitHub Actions to ${cloud provider}), there are no browsers involved.

On January 17, 1961, in this farewell address, President Dwight Eisenhower warned against the establishment of a "military-industrial complex."

In a speech of less than 10 minutes, on January 17, 1961, President Dwight Eisenhower delivered his political farewell to the American people on national television from the Oval Office of the White House. Those who expected the military leader and hero of World War II to depart his Presidency with a nostalgic, "old soldier" speech like Gen. Douglas MacArthur's, were surprised at his strong warnings about the dangers of the "military-industrial complex."

As President of the United States for two terms, Eisenhower had slowed the push for increased defense spending despite pressure to build more military equipment during the Cold War’s arms race. Nonetheless, the American military services and the defense industry had expanded a great deal in the 1950s. Eisenhower thought this growth was needed to counter the Soviet Union, but it confounded him. Though he did not say so explicitly, his standing as a military leader helped give him the credibility to stand up to the pressures of this new, powerful interest group. He eventually described it as a necessary evil.
Something to keep in mind is that science is not only practiced in cutthroat academic institutions. Arguably most of the science being practiced today is happening in R&D departments across the world, where there is a strong financial incentive to beware of false positives due to the expense of policy changes.

I worked in private agricultural research for many years, and the issues you describe here did not apply to us. A single instance of statistical significance was insufficient to make any assumptions or adjust any policies. Of course we would present those results if we got them, but nobody was getting excited about it until we got the same results consistently several more times, in several different locations, with several different research teams. Being the first to get a positive result was no more meaningful that being the 10th to get a positive result. Promotions were based on your ability to design and conduct solid research, regardless of the outcome.

Somewhat orthogonal to what Folia is doing, and already explored by the community.

Folia's main trick is to dynamically split the "main game tick loop", where logic and actions are processed into several threads based on location.

Such that processing for say a mob farm in the South of the map does not impede on processing for a hopper based storage system in the North West etc.

This doesn't solve the everyone's at one place problem (or "Jita problem", in EvE online parlance) but does solve some issues with populated servers where player density isn't extreme.
Here in Tokyo, it's legally required to have liability insurance to ride a bicycle. I don't know how many people actually do this, but it is the legal requirement. It's also very inexpensive (and a good idea in case you hurt a pedestrian). It hasn't stopped bicycling from being very popular for getting around, and it seems like every mother with kids has an ebike with a child seat or two.

There is a git plugin that pushes and commits every change automatically. But be carefully where you push it as the config file can contain sensitive stuff! I have my own Gitea behind the firewall.
> This is plainly false in every way. Firstly, buildijg is an expense - why would you build now if you can put off the expense?

It might be worth considering how, if that were true, anything that has a capital investment required of it ever gets done. Building is not an expense to a building company. What do you think the company does to generate revenue, if it's not building?
For a typical 70AHr car battery, the 1 mA from this monitor will take 8 years to drain the battery. When you get a "25% remaining" alert, you only have 2 years to recharge it! No, seriously, the self-discharge is about an order of magnitude greater than this monitor.
However, the reliability of model outputs is questionable, as LLMs may make formatting errors and occasionally exhibit rebellious behavior (e.g. refuse to follow an instruction).

Right…sounds quite reckless?

I use tools like Valgrind/Helgrind etc. to ensure that million+ line C++ code used in production by large international corporations has zero memory leaks, no buffer overruns etc. It’s easy. It works. No need to rewrite in any other language.
> The article seems to be suggesting the device itself is gathering data and reporting back covertly ... but I believe it's just the AMap library included by the app developer doing its thing.

If this is the take away, then I need to think about how I have phrased things. The GPS co-ordinates are sent two separate companies:

1) The Bluetooth device developer (bm2.quicklynks.com)

2) AMap (dualstack-cgicol.amap.com)

Looking at the decomplication and HTTP REST messages, it is very clear the app developer is deliberately sending GPS to their servers. They send a JSON object with the battery voltages, bluetooth device address and lat/lng in the same request.

The cell data, wifi beacon data - this is exclusively collected by AMap services and is not apparent without investing significant time reverse engineering their SDK.
> When I used an enigma machine at a museum

Did you use the one at Bletchley park too?

I tried to go back to use it again but it had been stolen and the one they had was locked away behind glass.

https://drenigma.org/2017/10/16/the-stolen-enigma-machine/
The issue I had with the EC2 deployment workflow was that it needed the AWS CLI configured, so it relied totally on AWS'es locked in workflow.

I was thinking more of the lines as a standard API/set of protocols that works on the NAT-scale automatically.

Humans are bad at guessing resources, and having people tweak all their VMs all the time with crappy code and crappy APIs is kinda the weakness of all dyno based workflows nowadays.

All the "web scale" jokes have a core truth in them, and are actually not so funny for a reason :-/

But relying on a standard set of NAT rules and relationships, which the Dockerfile already provides, could make this an advantage instead.
The problem with letting people do what they want, is that you will inevitably have bad actors ruining things for the rest of us.

That's where regulation comes in, where government comes in, where centralization comes in.

Do you seriously believe, that if Bitcoin becomes the global currency, that crime won't skyrocket due to people getting robbed relentlessly? You just need the PK dawg, and it's very easy to tell if you were told the truth - access to the wallet opens up.

I think you are just naive about the nature of mankind. We need rules, structure and order - the key question, is how do we create the environment that allows enough structure to not interfere with the creative process to allow us to continue growing and developing new technology?

Bitcoiners have a sad, yet fascinating trend to talk about nothing but Bitcoin. Take a look at your comment history.

Something I experienced recently on Android was an app that every few hours kept popping up an alert saying something like "App X wants location data, so it has turned location on".

How is that even possible? I know apps can request location data to be turned on, but I was surprised the app can unilaterally turn it on. I couldn't find any way to prevent that.

These are the kinds of reasons why I can't trust any phones at all.

> Challenges in long-term planning and task decomposition: Planning over a lengthy history and effectively exploring the solution space remain challenging. LLMs struggle to adjust plans when faced with unexpected errors, making them less robust compared to humans who learn from trial and error.

While working on smol-developer I also eventually landed on the importance of planning as mentioned in my Agents writeup https://www.latent.space/p/agents . I feel some hesitation with suggesting this because it suggests I'm not deep-learning-pilled, but I really wonder how far next-token-prediction can go with planning. When I think about planning I think about mapping out a possibility space, identifying trees of dependencies, assigning priorities, and then solving for some kind of weighted shortest path. That's an awful lot of work to expect of a next token predictor (goodness knows its scaled far beyond what anyone thought - is there any limit to next token prediction?).

If there were one focus area for GPT-5, my money would be on a better architecture capable of planning.
> In that Reddit comment linked in that article the person says they were spending $325k on self-managed infrastructure and the same thing would cost them nearly $4 million on SES.

Okay, if you're spending $300k+/yr, then sure it's not surprising you've got an economy of scale there.

But how far can you get on a budget of $15k/yr? SES is competitive.
One thing that I've learned over the years is to cede possession of a storyline or character arc to the fans if they've come up with something better that they cherish. They will continue to build whether you like it or not. In original Minoan or Mycenaean mythology Pan was some terrifying deity that required sacrifices and complex rituals to halt his plagues and dearth of animals. Some fifteen hundred years and two regions later and he was a drunk goat man who liked to shag forest spirits in the dawn light while people cheered him on. Same with the King Arthur legend, where Sir Lancelot literally began as fan fiction who became a core part of the mythos during the shifts originally from heroic honour to stately honour to chivalric honour. In more recent years we've got Scooby-Doo, where Fred has gone from just being the guy who drives the van to being a romance oblivious himbo with a love of engineering but absolutely no skill in it thanks to over fifty years of parodies and copyright skirting fan references influencing the official works.

Fanon can and often will supersede canon, to the point where after a generation or two the fanon is woven into the canon. You will never stop this process, so you might as well make a fertile field for the audience's ideas to grow after you've harvested your story.

The old web was killed by the corporate web at least ten years so. The corporate web has created this absolute dumpster fire dystopia of brainless bumblegum listicles, outrage bait attention economy, and frightening total surveillance secretly destroying people's rights worldwide.
