There are some people with 300k on their original Chevy Silverado transmission. But there are MANY people that have them blow up every 100k miles. So, would you say the 4l60e is a good transmission because yours went 300k?

Im in the Central valley and have helped at least 5 friends replace or rebuild theirs. If you visit a transmission shop, this is the transmission that keeps them in business because it's one of the few cars where someone will still spend $3k to fix a 20 year old car.
that's what I do and its easier to setup and understand than dokku that's for sure. tried using dokku multiple times and ran into so many issues with it. with traefik you literally just have to copy and past few lines in a compose file and push to docker hub and traefik will pick it up.
No. GrapheneOS (or rather its main dev) has a big thing against CalyxOS. Not so much the other way around it seems. The developer of GrapheneOS seems to think they are attacking him but when I read in the CalyxOS community they really don't seem to care one way or another :? I looked at both a while back but I didn't have the right phone for Graphene and Calyx didn't support my model in the end either although they did have plans to do so. But OnePlus made a nasty twist that made it impossible in the end.

I don't think LineageOS has any issue with GrapheneOS or the other way around. They're not really fishing in the same pond. GrapheneOS is a security hardened OS for pixel phones only, whereas LineageOS is more like a long term support ROM for as many devices as possible.
They really skipped over the actual original use of the word, which was not witchcraft, but "wyrd", the Anglo-Saxon word for "fate", although according to commentaries on Beowulf it was less "inevitable because of (divine) decree", but more towards "inevitable due to the consequences of our actions". "Wyrd" was the the Anglo-Saxon spelling for the Norse "Urd", the well that Odin dropped his eye into in exchange for a draught of its waters of wisdom.

The "wyrd sisters" would be Norns, the three women who were the Norse "fates". In a Christian context, of course, trying to access the future as a tool to benefit oneself is forbidden, so someone with access to the wyrd would be a witch. But I would assume different from satanic witches, because source of the knowledge is not demons but a pre-Christian access to the waters of the Well of Urd, the Well of Wyrd. In any case, Shakespeare's wyrd sisters are probably representing the Anglo-Saxon Fates (or "fate" collectively), rather than any modern conception of witches.

How does that prove that Telegram as a whole is not secure? The only thing that would demonstrate is that your normal, not-E2E encrypted, messages aren't E2E encrypted, which yeah, of course they aren't.

I think you might confuse what the mud puddle test aims to demonstrate. It's to be able to confirm E2E encryption, which if you do that test with Telegram + Secret Chats (which is the E2E encryption feature in Telegram), you'll see you cannot recover those messages.
Please educate us. The article you linked only has these two bits, as far as I can see:

And:

You can't assume there's free speech in the western countries either. Eg. Germany's banning political speach, left and right, even physically attacking and shutting down unconvenient conferences. There's such a thing as foreign intimidation of activists. Countries like India are engaging in politically motivated assasinations in western countries (Canada). Etc.

Just because some activists is in a western country doesn't mean they're free from influence or intimidation.
Early Scenes: Remembering a Childhood in the South Bronx
Snowden left the United States because the Federal Government wants to imprison him. The government wants to imprison him because he revealed them to be engaged in illegal surveillance on a scale that makes the Stasi's seem modest by comparison. To stay out of prison, he had to go to a country which wouldn't extradite him, hence his presence in Russia.

Edward Snowden is a hero who has made a tremendous sacrifice for Americans and for American ideals. The fact that he has to live in Russia to enjoy peace and freedom is a damning indictment, to be sure, but not of Edward Snowden.
Russia will never let him go. They will point a gun at him and let him explain on camera how great Russia is and why he's never going to leave.

He became an essential part of their propaganda, he doesn't even have to do it in person, his X account is enough.

The idea of essential immortality or at least a version of you getting immortality (as far as the version that conceivably gets booted up is concerned it worked, it's the reconstructed body that came out the other end of the teleporter not the one killed and disassembled down to the atoms in the Star Trek teleporter thought experiment, also featured somewhat differently in The Prestige). Loads of people are afraid of death or think they're important/special enough that they deserve or are interesting enough to keep around forever.
If Telegram helps Mother Russia more than it hurts it, which it likely does + it's something Snowden would reasonably say. Makes perfect sense to me.
His continued existance in Russia antagonizes the US Intelligence Community. That itself has value to Russia. Not tremendous value, but value nevertheless.
> some put in a ton of effort and do it properly, and that's fine...

I mostly agree with you, except with this statement. It's not fine, the companies that fall into this trap are wasting their time and resources on something that is not a real opportunity. This is the main source of waste imho and unfortunately happens a lot in EU projects.

Other than that, spot on.
In 1000 years, computing is going to be absurdly, magically, mythically cheap.
If we're still in a position where the cost of booting someone up is a constraint, it's probably not a future you want to participate in.

If progress continues, laws will be developed to mandate minimum compute resources available for simulants, like a basic right to life for biological people.

The basic premise of the article, "Given that running a brain scan still costs money in 1000 years, why should anyone bring you back from the dead? Why should anyone boot you up?"

The answer is, something has gone awfully wrong. Understanding cognition and the architecture of human minds has several parallel tracks, some of which should result in what amounts to brute-forcing the problem. It's not unreasonable to expect several of those tracks to converge on a solution within the next 5 decades - breakthroughs could significantly speed up that timeline, and molecular scale imaging is being pursued for many reasons beyond brain science.

This is a bit like asking "what if we only have ICE cars in 1000 years?"

Technology - especially compute - is on a persistent trajectory, and within 150-200 years, the atomic wizards and tamers of rock lightning should have us to about the halfway point of the Landauer limit, in terms of compute efficiency. It's hard to imagine things will come to a screeching halt, and we'll just live with early 2020s chip technology, give or take, for the rest of human history. We could even optimistically hope that we'd have overcome our collective nimbyist anti-nuclear idiocy and were on totally renewable and nuclear energy, with a thriving, nascent spaceborne civilization working out in the solar system.

You'd fire people up because you could - because there will be people who just like to explore the old stuff, because unless something goes wrong, treating brain scan simulants is the moral and humane thing to do. Boredom, curiousity, legislative mandate, slave labor to populate your torment nexus, friends to hang out with in your virtual paradise - there are as many reasons as there are humans. Imagine the heists and treasure hunting possibilities... just spin up the bank CEO and get his passwords and knowledge of the system, or spin up the space pirate for the coordinates of the golden asteroid.

I think a better question would be "since it cost time and effort to scan a brain, and this person underwent the procedure willingly, isn't the only moral answer to boot them up?" By the time it becomes a meaningful question, the operational overhead should be trivial. Strange things will come up, like how many copies you're allowed to run, globally and locally, what and how you are to contribute back to society, if at all, what the rights and responsibilities and citizenship and political valence, and all those things. I can't fathom a future where it's ever a matter of "hey, there's a 1000 year old copy of a person here, but nah, we're so bored and jaded, why even bother."
I do have some concerns about Docker Inc. and Mirantis (which now owns Docker Swarm I believe), yeah. Swarm is pretty mature though, and while I don't think it's going anywhere soon, I don't think we'll get any more core features anytime soon.

For Lunni, my plan is to add support for another orchestrator while keeping the developer experience of just working with docker-compose.yml. I really didn't want to do K8s, but given it's essentially an open standard now, it should be a safer bet than Nomad. I guess we'll see when I can get to it!

> The concern here is Intel is the last US HQ CPU fab that matters, and its relevance is waning.

I gave up on US fabs a long time ago; are they really that relevant to begin with outside of paying lip-service to those concerned about offshoring manufacturing jobs? We just went through (and are continuing to experience) a chip crunch and it's not like Intel came through despite having a domestic fab.
They are saying it from the perspective of the RAM being on the same die as the CPU. This is one of the innovations of the Apple Silicon architecture as it SIGNIFICANTLY reduces memory access latency.

It's not just TSMC's 3nm process. It's also Apple engineering.

Yeah, it's so weird (and shameless).
Intel has 10 wafer fabs worldwide. Yes, not all of them are at maximally modern nodes...

But here's an idea. Let's spin off Intel's fabs not into one company, but two. Get a little anti-trust and market competition to go with the CHIPS investment.

Intel won't like it, but make the CHIPS funding dependent on it.

Yes I know, no way that gets out of congress intact.

I think it would help to be designed to be usable by the keyboard alone but also to be usable by the combination of keyboard and mouse, and to work well either way, and you can do both together if you want to do (they are not different modes so you do not need to switch the mode).

Microsoft Windows has some of that; you can push ALT+SPACE and use the menu for move and resize by the arrows, but you can also use the mouse to move/size windows. Microsoft is not the best way, but this specific example is one of the things that can be done.

I also think that multiple document interface and tabbed windows could also be implemented in the window manager, that would not need to be the features of specific programs such as a web browser. (Some additional commands for application programs to interact with the window manager would be helpful; a window was created by another one, and is a part of the same program as this one, and some application commands are not specific to this window (but sometimes the user might want to start a separate instance for some windows anyways), etc.)

There are economic systems in which 100% of the value produced is paid out to laborers. We're just not in one.

> Exploitation only starts at stripping your company's assets (labor, loyalty, real estate, supplies, customer goodwill) in order to boost other aspects - usually 3 and 4.

First, this is merely an opinion. It's not a matter of me "misunderstanding" exploitation. It's an opinion that this is when exploitation starts.

Also, this is UNAVOIDABLE. You MUST, necessarily, take some money away from labor to give it to 3 and 4.

Your entire thought process rests on this word here - "stripping". What is that? When does that begin?

So fake images were way less common than real ones.

Now, that won't necessarily be the case. I don't know how this will catch on culturally but going forward, it's not just possible but probable that any given photo an acquaintance shares is "not real" in some way.
