You can easily buy the correct price of hardware by searching the forums and following the advice. The Freenas/Truenas forum is full of hardware guides and threads on what 10gb NICs or controllers to buy and when you need it flashed into IT Mode.

Most of the resellers will answers questions or even flash firmware. Local Craigslist guys even offered to do it but they don’t know why you’re doing it, the eBay people understand.
This should come as no surprise. ICE vehicles (in the US) has an extremely large, stable infrastructure, economies of scale for parts/aftermarket/service, little to no supply chain issues, and a sense of reliability (most cars just _work_). The economics of EVs just don't play out as well as ICE. While the charging network is expanding there are still not fast chargers on nearly every exit ramp on every interstate like there are gas stations. Then there's the cost of the vehicle which is super expensive compared to the most popular vehicles (pickups and wagons) factoring in all the other EV issues.

My 2 cents: we (the western economies) should have focused on hybrids first before jumping to EV. The fast push to EV was rather bold given hybrid tech works so well and uses the existing infrastructure. The push should have been much slower.

>Have you figured out whether you are Bosniaks or Bosnians?

Bosnians in Bosnia called themselves and still do Bosnians but do omit the "dobri" these days.

From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bo%C5%A1njani
The term good Bosnian (dobri Bošnjanin / добри Бошњанин) was not a geographical reference for the inhabitants along the Bosna River, but it was referred to the population of the entire medieval Bosnia, regardless of religion, which can be seen in various charters of the 14th and 15th centuries during the reign of ban Stjepan II Kotromanić, ban Tvrtko I Kotromanić, King Stjepan Ostoja, etc. In these charters, Bosnian rulers mention good Bosniaks as witnesses.[4

> In early 1377, Tvrtko successfully plotted with the Travunians to take over Trebinje, Konavli, and Dračevica, marking his final conquests of the Serbian lands.

This is exactly what I said, Bosnian King Tvrtko, you omit the part of Tvrtko being Bosnian, living in Bosnia speaking Bosnian language conquered Serbia. Do Bosnians get Serbia now?

Coming back on topic, the idea of having 3 custom made NASes is surely interesting, but apart from learning and experimenting with all these, I don't see a very big advantage from backup/security point of view compared to commecrial NASes (Synology, QNAP).

For sure we can all argue here about selection of filesystem (ZFS, btrfs, ext4...), selection of CPU, RAM type and all the others, but it all boils down to what each one wants (and has the money to spare). IMHO I wouldn't go with QVO SSDs and non redundant volumes (especially spanning 2 disks), but hey that's just me :-)

Yup, it's boxes that need to run logic every frame and don't just get removed from existence if you turn the camera away. It's doing a lot more than just rendering.

Compared to something like God of War that is trying to turn off anything not in the currently loaded level chunk (which of itself has mostly static assets), a simulation game needs to spend its budget moving around assets all over it's scene, or at least prepare approximations for where and what an asset is doing once it comes back in view. This is why such a game tends to be more cpu intensive. But I wouldn't be surprised if the GPU is being used for compute in such a game.

----

With all that said: I haven't played but to answer your specific question it sounds like the game has a very heavy and/or suboptimal GI scheme. People here have said to turn off GI and volumetric and they get much better performance. That kind of dynamic lighting may be the main culprit for a game already taking up a lot of cpu/GPU budget from the above factors.
The Fed has a dual mandate of controlling inflation AND minimizing the unemployment rate. You have to try to influence business growth to accomplish the second goal and it makes perfect sense.
General economic activity effects the velocity of money which effects inflation. If capital—for businesses or individuals—is more expensive, some of people's plans for spending will be shelved, that reduces activity and velocity.

Of course inflation is caused by things other than demand (e.g., supply: energy prices, food prices (thanks Russia!)).

One ironic thing is that one of the easiest ways to find good 'pirate' sites is to simply search for the takedowns. One indirect way to do this search Google for some term like [movie_name torrent] and then go to the links in the inevitable "In response to multiple complaints that we received under the US Digital Millennium Copyright Act, we have removed 8 results from this page. If you wish, you may read the DMCA complaints that caused the removals at LumenDatabase.org: Complaint [1], Complaint [2], Complaint [3]." message.

Those are the results from 'interstellar torrent'.

The takedowns are largely free advertising for the legitimate sites. It requires some basic level of knowledge, but that's true of even just using e.g. torrents on average, so it's probably a quite meaningful factor in this.

Netflix used to advertise sharing your account with family and friends even those outside of the family. At least here in Holland they did. Clearly that made it ok and not piracy.

Not an economist at all but, I fail to understand why "Trying to influence business growth with interest rates is the dumbest idea ever." while manipulate the same interests to reduce inflation is good/smart.

In a world (especially Europe) where you don't control raw material prices or (an important chunk of) energy prices, how can reducing spending by having forced high cost of money possibly work without tanking the economy as a side effect?

And if that's good or acceptable, why is not acceptable have businesses grow because of "free" lent money, especially if this helps improving life conditions for the people that work in those businesses? (which, I have to say, it's not always the case)
That's now, but as we know, prices tend to increase. Netflix was what? 5-10 usd in the past?

This demonstrably false. This is a paranoid take that disregards the actual facts. The same was said of cars when horses were popular.

Economies of scale will make EVs cheaper. The more produced the cheaper they get.

The hidden costs of ICE vehicles means that they are only priced as low as they are because of significant discounting of their real effects on air quality, climate, and diminishing oil supply. If those were priced accurately, they would be significantly more expensive to operate.

No, rich people aren't trying to take your ICE cars, the rest of us are because they're destroying our only habitat. We want our children to grow up in a world where humans can thrive instead of hiding underground to keep cool from deadly heat and starving from the lack of stable food production.

Except when writing in assembly, the compiler can make unintuitive decisions for how to transform our source code into something that runs on a particular hardware and as modern hardware complexity increases it becomes unlikely that a human can guess the exact code that will run.

> the developers do not seem to consider it a core goal of Lean

I guess it depends on who you ask. The original devs of Lean wanted to do "everything" (because that's how you start projects, I guess). Since then it has attracted a lot of mathematicians (especially those working on Mathlib, a library that aspires to formalize "all known math") who are happy to have "algorithm objects" and prove things about them without being able to actually run an algorithm on any input.

This goes together with mostly embracing classical logic (which breaks the original and most powerful version of Curry-Howard, which allowed you to extract programs from proofs). However, in practical situations, algorithms extracted in this way tend to be too slow to be useful, so maybe that's not actually a downside for programming purposes.

Finally, Lean4 "compiles" to C-code, so at least it is (or can reasonably easily be made) portable. People have been trying to use it for real applications, like the AWS stuff others have linked in this thread.
