DBeaver works surprisingly nicely with less popular DBs. I work with Babelfish for PostgreSQL [1], it supports connections with SQL Server client libs. Most GUI client tools (like SSMS) expect "real" SQL Server on the other end of the wire - depend on various system views for DB introspection, so only partially work with Babelfish. Even if client tool is based on JDBC (like SQuirell SQL), it doesn't guarantee that this tool won't use additional SQL Server-specific queries for introspection. DBeaver is much better at this, I guess it is using JDBC API or DB-neutral INFORMATION_SCHEMA views for introspection.

>you pay the same in taxes as the basic income, for a net tax rate of zero

I think this is the make believe part. In Australia, we have a goods and services tax of 10% on every purchase, plus an income tax of around 19% for amounts from 18-45k (thats low/mid-low).

All in all, about 9k in tax for this low bracket. If we're paying that for all 26 million people here.. hey I guess that's probably pretty doable. Damn

The spacecraft should generate the key pairs itself once it landed and send the public keys to earth to be sure no human stole the private keys.

But, while fun, your idea is not that stupid.

If the spacecraft continuously generate key pairs, you could even avoid landing it and "just" throw it in some direction, Voyager style (if you can afford rebuilding some every few decades) or on some orbit in the solar system. You don’t have to pay for the landing tech.

I disable sleep on Linux because sometimes the laptop would wake up and either overheat in a bag or just make the battery dead-flat. Both those outcomes are highly undesirable. Old Dell XPS so sleep and hibernate are supported.

I find boot times quick enough on modern laptops that shutting down and restart is fine.

If I want to leave session alive during the day I just lock it and leave it running. Hibernate is enabled for if battery gets low but I hardly ever manually hibernate.
It's a lot easier and less labor-intensive to dig a dwelling or expand a cave that will keep you warm in winter and cool in summer than a to build an above-ground house that will. Rodents which would invade below-ground food stores weren't as widely spread in ancient times either.

PRC will definitely weaponize this for mass foreign propaganda, which up until now PRC has been thoroughly deficient in, despite all the reees of 50cents on western net. The reality pre-LLM is PRC propaganda on western social media platforms has been very limited in scale for the simple reason that they are not wasting valuable English fluency to shit post on western platforms enmass. Low 100s-1000s of accounts, most of which target diasphora in spambot efforts, frequently in Chinese. Now that LLM has made it cheap to spam passable English/foreign languages, I'd expect increased volumes of PRC propaganda on western social media where anonymous posting is asymmetrically easier. But then again, they don't need a PRC LLM for that, plenthy of US bad posting on western platforms from international audiences and US herself.

I didn’t know his middle name was “Riddle” that’s almost ironic.
For one, it'd be really hard for an LLM to get the CRC32 right, especially when it's in a header before the data it covers.

Then again, this whole approach to fuzzing comes across as kinda naive, at the very least you'd want to use an API of a coverage-guided fuzzer for generating the randomness (and then almost always fixing up CRC32 on top of that, like a human-written wrapper function would).
A bit off topic but also related: I use Minio as a local "S3" to store datasets and model checkpoints for my garage compute. Minio, however, has a bunch of features that I simply don't need. I just want to be able copy to/from, list prefixes, and delete every now and then. I could use nfs I suppose, but that'd be a bit inconvenient since I also use Minio to store build deps (which Bazel then downloads), and I'd like to be able to comfortably build stuff on my laptop. In particular, one feature I do not need is the constant disk access than Minio does to "protect against bit rot" and whatever. That protection is already provided by periodic scrubs on my raidz6.

So what's the current best (preferably statically linked) self-hosted, single-node option for minimal S3 like "thing" that just lets me CRUD the files and list them?

This is my first encounter with abelard.org. While it is delightful in a kind of early internet culture way, I sincerely doubt Random House, Inc. gave permission to reproduce this in full to this pseudonymous author who writes in the persona of a space alien who is the reincarnation of an 11th century philosopher monk and, well, I'll just share their words: [1]

> abelard is thought to live in a ger on the steppes of outer mongolia, surrounded by an indeterminate number of yaks, husbands and wives... and vast hordes of children preparing for the cultural conquest of the world... abelard is known to have long conversations with the good fairy. it is rumoured that abelard arrived on a cultural troubleshooting mission to this planet from a star system approximately 40 light years away: this prior to the earth being offered probationary membership of The Galactic Anarchy (some call it The Culture).

> as abelard is from an advanced culture, this entity has to communicate in rather simple language in order to be understood by the savages... consequently there are various rumours... one is that The Culture have forgotten all about this attaché, who often gets homesick and pissed off with living in such a primitive backwater. another is that this entity is a reincarnation of another Abelard born in 1079.... both of these rumours are true to a related degree.

If you catch a public defender in a candid moment, you’ll get a lot of stories like this. What makes the criminal justice system so difficult is that the overwhelming majority of the people that it targets are guilty of what they’re accused of, and scumbags on top of that. When you face that day in and day out, it’s difficult to make yourself keep your eyes open for the innocent ones.

I remember an ACLU email in my inbox about the Juwan Wickware case: https://www.aclu.org/news/criminal-law-reform/only-america-1.... It was trying to drum up outrage about a young man who attacked a pizza delivery driver as part of a coordinated robbery. One of the members of Wickware’s party ended up killing the driver in front of his wife and kids (who were in the car). When I dug up details about the case, I thought “you’d think they’d have picked a more sympathetic case to make their point.” But the fact is that those are few and far between.
Out of curiosity is that view limited to retail pricing laws or does it extend other types of regulation as well? If it doesn't extend what makes pricing regulation different from other regulation in terms of consumer protection, in your view?
You are arguing semantics, I am arguing equivalence. If you have a piece of property, that is reserved for your exclusive use, at a price that is below market value, in perpetuity, that can often be passed to your children… then I think we are talking about a distinction without a difference.

Perpetual and especially heritable property use (regardless of technical ownership), that exists well below market rates, is a form of landed aristocracy, just without the pomp and titles.

I would say the very same thing about property owners who have perpetual and heritable property tax exemptions or perks, and I do in the case of California.
Ah, thanks! Makes more sense :)

It's a bit complicated as there are things that are mandatory according to some agencies and some that are only recommended but not required.

You would be surprised but the overwhelming majority of maintenance procedures and their bureaucracy is decided by airplane makers and airlines exactly because local authorities have different or no rules at all.

Besides who can know better than Boeing how to maintain a Boeing airplane? Same for other companies.

The issues arise when companies know that some procedure is required to be done and logged but shrug it off for whatever reason. Remains to be seen why.

I think you mistake my point: Iceland's culture _is_ perpetually endangered, more than most. These steps appear necessary for them, they appear to work, and even 100x larger countries whose cultures would survive anyway do some amount of the same.
Smart contracts operate completely transparently. There is no private data other than the private keys used to sign transactions. Unless you just encrypt the data, then you need a key to access it, and the nodes don’t have that key.

I know a guy that worked on this same problem leveraging TEEs (trusted execution environments). This enables 3rd parties to run the software and join the network and take part without having access to the data. Unless they find a flaw in the TEE that can be exploited.

It's another iteration of the unit record machine [0] - batch processes done with a physical arrangement of the steps in the process.

CPU design moved away from this analogy a long while ago because the tasks being done with CPUs involved more dynamic control flow structures and arbitrary workloads. But workloads that are linear batches of brute force math don't need that kind of dynamism, so gridded designs become fashionable as a way of expressing a configurable pipeline with clear semantics - everything on the grid is at a linear, integer-scalable distance, buffers will be of the same size, etc.

If you're innocent, you don't need to lie to your defense attorney.

If you're guilty, the system is not designed to protect you, and there's no reason why it should permit the guilty to commit perjury out of some desire to balance out (?) the fact that the prosecution and police sometimes lie as well.

What is a scenario where an innocent person needs to be allowed to lie to present an effective defense?
