If the data isn't changing often, could you use an SSD read cache to keep the 20TB array mostly spun down?
Data that's about to be written to disk often resides in ram for some period of time - bit flips in non-ECC ram can silently corrupt the data before writing it out. ZFS doesn't prevent this though it might detect it with checksumming.

>but it's not accurate to say it is "wired in" as the primary and inescapable strategy.

The issue is it is an effective strategy. You have to actively control it from taking over. The vast majority of the population must be inoculated against using dominance and to stamp it out, which again comes down to "who is going to teach them that and ensure these teachings don't get corrupted".

Saying that unimportant things like 12-step programs use this is pretty useless. While some individuals may have high stakes in these programs, for most people there is no stake at all. If your local chapter fails under a brutal dictator you can just go to another one. The rate of failure like this won't even be documented.

When someone says fuck your checks and balances in your government it's a different story you're in grave danger, and by watching the news now, I don't think many people are willing to do much about it at all.

Chomsky is only pro anarchism when it comes to the West. He is perfectly fine with communist/post communist regimes rampaging around unabated and uncriticized.

Does this mean then that they will be forced to lower their prices, or not to increase them, or... what does this mean for consumers in the end?
> Why do you say Jesus was anarchic?

At a guess, I'd say it's because Jesus spends a lot of time casting the religious authorities as villains, so this viewpoint is extended to a general belief in antiauthority and consequently pro-anarchy. Except this also misses all the times where he turns around saying "follow the law" and other events where he criticizes antiauthoritism (e.g., his rebuke of Simon Peter during his arrest).
Look at the first paragraph of the Wikipedia page on the topic

> Symbiosis (from Greek συμβίωσις, symbíōsis, "living with, companionship, camaraderie", from σύν, sýn, "together", and βίωσις, bíōsis, "living")[2] is any type of a close and long-term biological interaction between two biological organisms of different species, termed symbionts, be it mutualistic, commensalistic, or parasitic.[3] In 1879, Heinrich Anton de Bary defined it as "the living together of unlike organisms". The term is sometimes used in the more restricted sense of a mutually beneficial interaction in which both symbionts contribute to each other's support.[3]

It acknowledges the popular use of the term while implying that the technical meaning is broader

> I’ve never heard of any meaning of symbiosis other than mutually beneficial

This is exactly why it's so funny to me. Some snake oil salesman says "we have a symbiotic relationship with XYZ" and in my head I'm thinking "yes, a parasitic symbiotic relationship..."
The North Cascade Mountains in the Pacific Northwest are also sometimes called the "American Alps".

Have you checked out older and/or discontinued stocks of name brands like dell or HP? I've seen those for $50-$100 on Amazon and ebay. I remember seeing an older 2021 dell (or possibly hp) touchscreen 2 in 1 for like $80 or so (I think it was on amazon). Might be worth it more than a random brand.

The labels are in Japanese if you want to try with your phone. The intro through Google Translate:

"The survey conducted by the "Kowloon City Expedition" first produced an east-west cross-sectional view. This panorama depicts life when Kowloon City was at its most lively on top of that cross-sectional view. Based on the remnants of life that remained in the area, we have added documentary materials and the results of interviews. If you look at Kowloon City as a whole, where each room was colored by its own lifestyle, you will see that it was a dense city where "anything goes", embracing both the sacred and the profane."
Tailscale works perfectly for remote access, I do "backups" with rsync over VPN nightly to an offsite location.

Syncthing over Tailscale is running smoothly too, it doesn't matter where my machines move, they find each other using the same internal address every time.
What's important to add on here is that Chomsky wasn't a revolutionary anarchist. He talked a lot about changes within the existing framework [1] - such as increased power of labor - which were consistent with anarchist principles.

In general, it's important to generalize this. Most political philosophies are better understood and judged by the directions they demand existing societies move in rather than the final destination, which might never be achieved.

[1] EDIT: of the society he was living in, or see better comment below.
Having worked in the ag-tech space, there are few heavies in the room that are happy to just wait out the IP limits on promising technology held by a startup/competitor who hasn't figured out how to monetize it yet. This is exactly what Driscoll's has done here. They never invested much themselves, and now that the rights are going for fire-sale prices, they'll step in and start developing themselves. I have a pretty good guess about who will be working to extend the tech.

Monsanto, Driscoll's, Simplot, these are companies that have decades of proven revenue that is not going away until humanity evolves photosynthesis directly. They can afford to wait it out until the price drops, and they'll only clamor to acquire a "promising startup" when they think the price can't get any lower.

IP protection here specifically serves to prevent e.g. Monsanto from eating ZipGrow or whoever's lunch.
It literally failed due to the concentrated efforts of the world. That's historical fact.

That doesn't mean it wouldn't have failed for specific reasons if allowed to continue, however we don't know what that failure would be, and stating it as was done, is a ridiculous idea.
Depending on your exact usage profile, adding a couple of smaller SSDs (in a mirrored configuration) for the OS and anything which changes a lot might enable you to set your NAS to spin the HDDs down for a lot of the time - they draw a lot less in that state (c1W each) until you need them. ZFS generally seems to handle the longish delays in spinning up before returning data in my experience (though annoyingly it will spin disks up one after the other instead of in parallel, extending the wait time by quite a bit - I keep meaning to write a simple shell script to detect if one drive is spun up and spin the rest up to fix this - openSeaChest is worth knowing about for stuff like this).

You’ll also need to do some sleuthing work to find out what background stuff is likely to keep using them though (don’t forget stuff like ZFS auto snapshot tools) - it took me a while to find everything when I did this (I had to keep a few instances of fatrace running and watch the timing of file accesses for a couple of weeks to find everything).
If you missed 2 before the trials and another after? I could see someone being on final notice before the trials and then fucking up again.

But they didn't actually say how and when she was DQed, just that she missed the Tokyo Olympics due to breaking the whereabouts clause. There are clearly favorites at the trials and if someone 'should' have gone I could see announcers making the speculative leap.

Do you have an example? It sounds like a complete category error. That or you're using the word very differently than most people do..?

An adherent of an ideology might, like, have rituals. But the ideology isn't the rituals.

Here are some ideologies off the top of my head: democracy, marxism, environmentalism, libertarianism, atheism, the moral basis of Christianity but not the religion itself, utitarianism, humanism, empiricism.

None of those have, as far as I can tell, a single ritual inherently associated with them.
Thanks for the answer. I realize that the “everybody for themselves” part was not a correct assumption.

They don't show it "open", and i don't know enough about what it is to spend any time finding the actual "toy" to see how dangerous it looks.

What happens, though, is the police will do something and then post-hoc rationalize it. Without video there's no way i can believe he was "brandishing" this "toy". Some guy who pointed a single finger at a cop in the US recently received a $175,000 payout after being arrested and charged because he was constitutionally protected by the first amendment for his "speech". Didn't stop the cops from arresting an older man, though.

I've seen a lot of abuse under the color of authority articles and videos and analysis, so here's a possible series of events. Bray may be a little touched - the article skates around this, but in a high crime area, someone who's a little weird or different or moving differently may find the police initiating contact. Bray may have had this toy on a keychain or near his hand, and on a frisk or whatever the police found it. Bray may not have "cooperated" fully with the invasion on his person, so is arrested, and charged with having a bladed weapon.

I was witness to police threatening someone with being charged with having a sawed-off shotgun for merely transporting a pneumatic potato cannon in their trunk. Why were they pulled over? Their license plate lights weren't bright enough because a bug had gotten into the lens and died - you know, "let's harass the poors" sort of policing.

I see your point but disagree. Sun was the last holdout of the propriety Unix vendors to support Linux because they had underpriced the other Unix vendors like Linux was underpricing them. Sun's whole idea was to create cheap Unix workstations by using commodity parts and having a low-cost Operating System in SunOS and then Solaris.

Becoming a Nasdaq-100 company is a trailing indicator of going mainstream. By 2005 RedHat and Enterprise Linux had won, and Sun had about 5 years before Oracle purchased them.

OpenStack is great if you want to manage your own data center and some companies should do that. It is a cost/benefit analysis that some will make on the side of doing their own thing.

They frame it positively, of course ("now your data lives on your device!") but AFAICT it's all downside. I can't browse my location history on a nice big screen, and (very annoyingly) the app does not let you view your aggregate history over the span of a month or year -- only a single day. Plus, if you lose your phone, you lose all that precious data, unless you configure the app to automatically sync your history to Google's cloud...wait what? Wasn't not doing that the whole point? Just baffling.
I know a bit about the computer system at our children’s school. I only have access to the parent portal, but that’s enough to give me some idea how it actually handles things. Plus I used to work for a university, and I got a good look at the internals of its system - and timetabling isn’t fundamentally different between primary/secondary and tertiary, just it gets more complicated as you move up.

So, to answer what I think you are saying - normally you divide the day into chunks (“periods”). At our children’s school, it is primary, there are only two notional periods a day (morning and afternoon), when our son goes to secondary school next year (which appears to use the same software) there will be several periods a day, one per a subject.

Anyway, in the system, a period is a class, not just in the academic sense, but also in the OO sense, and as such it has instances - “morning period” starts at 8.35 am local time any day the school is open. So that start time would be stored without a date, just a time plus time zone. But then, there is an instance of “morning period” every one of those days, which starts at a particular instant in time - today it starts at 2024-07-04T08:35+10:00. And yes, you could store that just in UTC, and convert to the school’s local time on display.

I suppose there are three main data types you really need: (1) date without time (2) local time in specific timezone (3) UTC instant

For (1), whether you need the timezone or not depends on the use case. For stuff like dates of births, you generally won’t know and don’t really need to know the timezone in which they were born. But, for other applications, it becomes important, since Wednesday afternoon in the Americas is Thursday morning in Oceania and eastern Asia, so whether it is Wednesday or Thursday depends on your timezone. People expect days to start and end at local midnight, not UTC midnight - which for me is 10 or 11 o’clock in the morning.

For hire dates, many jurisdictions have employment laws that have different rules depending on how long you’ve worked there. So you need to know how many days since hire to know what legal regulations apply to the employee. And obviously that is meant to be calculated in local time, if you do it in UTC or HQ timezone it could be a day out, which might cause legal issues. (e.g. in some jurisdictions it is easier to fire an employee in the first six months, you wait until the last day to terminate them, except because you got the day off by one, that was yesterday, now you have terminated them illegally)

The cheapest NAS is usually just taking some old desktop PC and repurposing it headless. :-)
AWS, GCP, and Azure all offer cold storage for about $1 per TB per month. If you want any cheaper you need to build a second NAS.

You could also take the awkward route and add one or two large drives to your desktop, mirror there, and back that up to backblaze (not B2).

The other suggestions you got for hot storage strike me as the wrong way to handle this, if you're considering $80 per year per TB for backups then just make another NAS.
