We setup each project with it's own subdomain... so a /etc/hosts file would be something like

127.0.0.1 client7.companyname.dev our-amazing-product.companyname.dev postgres2.companyname.dev

So, then we can use the same settings, etc across devs.

Then each dev just runs the script to renew the script as they are needed (no need to share certs between devs)
If the goal of such parallel is to show how Linux is more reliable than Windows, then being the steering wheel is sufficient, compared to Windows not being a part of the car at all.
When I will use copyrighted material, I will get automatically DMCAed by US institutions into oblivion. When OpenAI will use copyrighted material, it tries to pretend that EU is unreasonable.
Fascinating site. I had never heard about it.
Agreed, but also don't underestimate Coca-Cola, McDonalds, or Starbucks. McDonalds for example, is mostly a real estate company which franchises the McDonalds brand, infrastructure, and IP. So, they (1) sell the world, (2) have relatively inelastic demand, (3) cannot be easily substituted due to their brand value, (4) requires minimal labor since you can ignore the employees at the franchises, (5) has low overhead, and (7) enjoys cash billings.

For point (6) about the capital, an argument can be made that large amounts of capital aren't necessarily bad. They can also lead to massive moats. Many great companies boil down to being able to significantly reduce costs over time. For example, Carnegie and Frick invested heavily in capital expenditures so that they could reduce costs over time. Once this happened, they could outprice the competitors leading to more money for Carnegie and Frick which lead to them being able to reduce costs further. A similar example nowadays is TSMC. They spend 36B on CAPEX in 2022.
Compare a 2016-era phone with the current equivalent (e.g. iPhone 7 vs iPhone 14) and there is a huge difference, many of the specs. are 4x those of the older model.

Don't get me wrong, I really don't like the whole 'disposable hardware' culture, but you can't deny there has been a huge leap in tech over the last ~7 years.
I didn’t mean to imply that living in harsh conditions is inherently miserable. I have lived in “natural” subsistence conditions in the Alaskan bush for extended periods of time, and while it was often acutely uncomfortable, it was not any kind of existential misery. Misery comes from unmanageable circumstances or personal outlook.

But, I agree with you that my off the cuff policy proposal has many flaws and would harm some people. I think it might do less harm than good, but without a good bit of (probably unethical) a/b testing I’m really not sure.
I don't think any law is being broken, and the convention that governs use of cluster munitions does not have the United States (or Russia or Ukraine for that matter) as signatories[1]. Maybe OP is thinking that there's some appropriations rule that this violates, but I doubt it.

The broader point, though, is that this is yet another step up the escalation ladder for the United States and we're inching closer to direct involvement in a territorial dispute that has little strategic value for the US. Many don't like that fact, but it's still true. That we're doing this means we're either running out of things to give Ukraine, their counter-offensive is not going as well as expected or planned, or some combination of both. I can steelman an argument for US involvement, but it pretty much stops at degrading Russian combat power to the point where they can't project force anymore, outside of their nuclear deterrent. We've reached that point. There isn't really a coherent end game to this war as long as the US continues to print money and ship our weapons to Ukraine.

That's a good suggestion! Will look into it, should be fairly easy to support
Usenet and IRC (with its hundreds of servers) were a wild west.

Some forums let you pay to regain entry, others would downvote but not outright ban (like Slashdot).

Banning was practically impossible given dynamic IP addresses and dial-up.

The internet was much smaller, its users more technical, and its software much more bug-filled. It was entirely possible that banning someone would lead to them exploiting your server and taking it offline. I witnessed that happen several times.

People focused on mostly getting along. Nobody was sensitive about the bullshit we whine about today.

It's also interesting that the zeitgeist at the time favored conservatives, so liberals were the then-staunch supporters of free speech. (Remember the Church of Satan?) That's completely reversed now.

The internet of today is so incredibly different to the internet of the 90's and early 2000's. Despite all we've gained, we've actually lost a lot too.
Gentlemen (so to say): Please keep the “dick-measuring contest” private, thank you.
> The Ukrainian government stubbornly refuses any negotiation.

Odd that a country that isn't losing doesn't want to negotiate with an invader who has expressed as a bottom line that "we'll keep the bits we've occupied".

Perhaps this is a better phrasing:

The Russian government stubbornly won't relinquish occupied sovereign Ukrainian territory.
So, are they terrorists you say?

Well, then.

Classify them as such.

=> Any funding of them is now funding of terrorism. Including paying tax in Russia. Which means any and all companies doing business in and with Russia, and the individuals working in and for those companies now have to immediately stop, or else face jail... right?

Seems like it could be super effective way of halting Russia?

This is a nice lie we tell ourselves, but it's obvious if you look into what we actually do, that we value small things like convenience and money over a small chance of killing someone. See cars for the easiest example, but there's many more.

Conveniently your chances of dying in a car accident are around 1% each year: https://www.rosenfeldinjurylawyers.com/news/what-are-your-ch....
Does regulation requires them to "understand" the business model or withhold the funds? These are two different things. For $600K, Stripe could send one of its support agents (which doesn't exist now) to verify that OP has a legitimate business. Instead, it took the much easier option of withholding these funds (from their offices in Alto) and earning interest on it... for 9 months...

I'd say good for them. If you accept that kind of shit (in business or in a relationship) you deserve it.
Because their tenants are free loaders? If you're paying for the service, I'd expect a greater degree of autonomy. Unless the service you're paying for is for somebody else to make moderation and federation decisions for you.

(Scroll down to servers)

Incidentally this is public facing Internet servers. The % -inside- enterprises us much much higher.

Tools like Active Directory allow you to scale enterprise operations, which is important for companies that have hundreds-of-thousands of desktops etc.

In any event your estimate of 99.9% is unlikely. AWS offers Windows based EC2 instances, and one presumes they're not doing that for 0.01% of the market. Azure will likely have an even higher %.

From the data though, not just guessing, I'd say it's about 20% overall.
The lack of pro-audio software is definitely a thing. Mixxx is pretty good though for DJing. It's better than most of the rest of the pro-audio landscape on Linux. There are now also pretty good DAWs (Bitwig, especially).

Releasing binaries is still a PITA for Linux. That's one of the main reason it has so little support from closed source consumer software. If you care, see my comment history on my company dropping Linux support for a pro-audio app, even though our software works on Linux.

But for development tools, it's you-win-some-you-lose-some. There are some development tools (the Valgrind suite, for example) that I still miss after mostly switching to macOS. Going from Linux to macOS also means losing great tools.
I tryed a couple of times, but I can't laser anything.
> Once obtained, they can manually be copied into the LAN using a tool like wormhole.

We haven't needed to copy the certs around the LAN. It works fine with dev's just individually running certbot renew as needed.

Yes, it tooks us a fair bit of fiddling around to work out how to do it, but final result is super simple. So I definitely would have considered a project like this in the past, but now we've got the scripts for it, it's pretty simple.
bcachefs will have its share of teething issues. Being merged into mainline is only the first step of a very long journey.
> It is straightforward to create your own Root CA and use it to sign certificates for your private network, using openssl.

I guess I'll be the one to say it: many people, myself included, get intimidated by using OpenSSL. The CLI has a bunch of different options and dealing with the inherent complexity of a PKI makes it all a bit of a mess: where you try to find the right invocations for whatever you need to do online and even then aren't sure whether everything is done correctly.

At least that mirrors my own experience in the past and that of most folks I've talked to, both in private and prod projects. That's why I personally find software like Keystore Explorer actually decent for even things like running your own CA (probably for a small homelab, where you don't need automation): https://blog.kronis.dev/tutorials/lets-run-our-own-ca

And yet, even then I don't have the confidence that I've done things the "right" way, frankly probably not. That's even before you get into things like staying on top of CVEs and keeping everything updated - overall staying safe is very challenging. There's probably also the need to configure a web server, like Apache with SSLCACertificateFile and just plenty of things to go wrong along the way, especially if you need mTLS as well.

> Using this service means you really do not have a private network

That's a fair point, though!
Alas, v1 API is still 401ing for me on one of my apps (but others of mine are still working which is probably what they've hit - an old v1 key which hasn't been disabled yet.)

I'm glad its a tossup for other people! I've been debating it with myself for a long time.

I agree very much with your "cartographic control" point.

I should have been more specific when talking about performance. For a raster tile, if it is performing badly on the server, that is solvable because you can pre-render beforehand. For vector tiles (which I guess most of the time are coming from a MBTiles file which is a cache) if they are performing badly in the user's browser its not really solvable because you can't do this pre-render step. The only solution would be to find a way to simplify the data more to lessen the load on the user's browser. I don't know if you have a similar experience?
Ok! I see a blog post errata coming up in the near future.

How do you believe copyright is keeping the quality down in particular? As I see it, the reason is marketability and trying to conform to standards. Making a new Marvel Movie is sure to have a payoff. Making Parasite MIGHT have a higher payoff, but the risk is way higher.

Removing copyright might help to get various more spin-offs and reiterations on previous work, which does increase the scope, but taking the ability for makers to profit from their work in a traditional sense, will bring us closer (back) to a time when commissioned artwork was the main art you saw

So you're saying most Mastadon servers won't block servers that allow "TERF"s (a term which includes the very mainstream view that transwomen shouldnt be allowed in woman's sports)?
That is a very good question!

In a nutshell we use a probabilistic approach.

Whenever we get an FP exception due to a 0x8b8b8b8b we do the following:

1. We recover the address of the memory that caused the fault (i.e. the address where 8b8b8b8b is stored)

2. We start to count how many adjacent 8b there are. If we count at least 16 of them we know it's very likely our redzone

3. Finally we use what we call the "0x89 trick": the first byte of the redzone must be 89 (so a redzone looks like 898b8b8b...). If we also find this start marker then we are confident it's not a false positive.

Of course there can be still some false positives, however in programs is not that common to have the value 898b8b8b8b8b8b8b8b8b8b8b8b8b8b8b in memory.

This check is really expensive, however the nice property is that we get so few exceptions that in the end even if we waste a lot of time verifying for false positives the overhead is negligible.

Yes. I intend to write one more article on single side band, and another one on the analytic signal. Including there the details you mention.

Yeah, I'm not happy about the provision of cluster munitions, neither is my government.

My opposition is on the grounds of the human and economic cost of land contaminated with unexploded submunitions.

But if Russia's already using them in their usual profligate manner, and they'll help the Ukrainian war effort, then my objections fade to a reluctant sigh.

Im pretty sure you are correct, but I’m struggling with imagining situations where the statement “If you do nothing (the default condition) to sustain or improve your existence, you will be miserable. “ does not apply.

I would be genuinely greatful if you could provide me with realistic examples of where this statement is incorrect.

The only ones I can think of are ones where someone else does the sustenance and improvement of your existence, like in the case of being a child or a ward of the state, perhaps? Also obviously where you are paying others to do so, but there you have actually caused this to happen and therefore are “doing” it.

Apparently you missed the point that Ukrainians using cluster bombs will kill Ukrainians in the future.

The idea that the increased effectiveness of DPCIMs will save lives is a rather theoretical argument. Perhaps it will be comforting to armless children in the future? Because that kind of casualty is a known fact.
Precisely part of the problem is that most instances are in Europe, which means that much of the speech you can find online is illegal, and if you aren't Facebook you don't have the muscle to fight a politician or a judge who wants to make an example out of you.

The rationale of not allowing cluster bombs is NOT based on what the enemy is doing, but the effects on the cluster bombs after the war.

I'm not saying they should not be given to Ukraine, but simply pointing out that you're arguing the wrong argument.

Edit: I have seen good arguments for giving the bombs to Ukraine, and tend to agree with them. I.e., their use is rather localized at this point of the war.

Already copyright laws do not offer protection for writers (see the current [screen]writers strike [1]), visual artists, musicians (see the recent Taylor Swift re-recording debacle [2]), not to speak of the "lower" arts, crafts & merch, where colossi such as H&M and Zara steal art, designs, concepts regularly [3] (not to even mention the sweatshops).

Copyright laws, or in fact generally laws, are for the rich and powerful, perhaps even for the corporations, not the individuals, since they paid for them to be so [4], it's just us, individually, the hoi polloi, who are still trapped into believing that there is rhyme or reason to our current system.

The joke is that while our system extolls itself as the most efficient system in history, based on competition of equals and free markets (two contradictions in terms contradicting each other), it harbours terrible inefficiencies such as the copyright laws, the patent system, and so on.

You miss a key point... Not sure if deliberately or due to distance from all of that.

Allow Russia to back down with positive land gains today and you create a precedent that any invasion on a non-NATO non-nuclear country is possible and viable just because you're a large world superpower.

This should not be the case, and a large part of Europe understands that. Hopefully, you will too.
If we were a rational civilization we'd stop all scientific research immediately. First there's a good chance the great filter is ahead of us and will be triggered by a technology break-trough. Second with nuclear weapons we got lucky in that it's extremely hard to separate fission capable isotope of uranium from mineral ores; if in the future we invent a powerful weapon that's easy to produce organizations like al-Qaeda will destroy every city on Earth.

I own blurays that a) can't be played in any of my physical nor software players anymore (players flat out reject it ever since their decryption keys got updated, which I did to play other blurays that needed the update; physically they're fine, everything points to encryption-level errors) and b) can be decrypted but it takes ages and ludicrous amounts of space to rip + reencoding properly is a very manual process (back of the envelope calculation told me ripping my small collection would take several years)

It's so outstandingly unpractical that I consider that "unplayable". It certainly is for the layperson.

So I've turned to getting these from "that other source" and keeping the blurays as tokens of ownership.

So if the product from OP used Azure OpenAI, it would be okay? You say "companies happily pay up", but the pricing is exactly the same (source: my company is paying for both APIs).

It's been quite clear for some time that, between OAI and MS, they very neatly split their market: OAI handles the early development and direct customers, and MS handles enterprises. It would require OAI to be a much bigger company than it is right now to properly handle enterprises, and MS already has all that infrastructure (legal, support, etc.). Seems like a sensible setup to me, and I don't see the need for enterprises to run open source models themselves (in this context - of course I see the value in all the other respects about lock-in and specialization), especially if they are already on Azure.
