This. You know a lot of tech from the 60s and 70s is still chugging along (I know a guy who makes more than I ever will because he know his way around VAX)

We already had Y2K. Seems dumb to create any so called standard limited to a 100 year lifespan.

It is the new antivaxx. People who know a little more than the average non-techie person based ofc on mostly secondhand sources amp up the scare factor and get positive feedback in terms of clicks & attention and -- if they graduate to grifting -- ads. Yeah it is all a con stochastic parrots biggest bubble since tulips scorch the planet yadda. Meanwhile materials scientists using it to make better solar panels, plasma physicists using it to enable fusion, medical science unlocking the proteome for personal designer therapies.

People should spend their energy learning how the tools work, and how to use them well.

Your LLM agent and its ancillary vectorDB will remember everything for you. I suggest selfhosting and not using a corporate secondbrain.

This may come across as tongue in cheek but I am deadpan serious.

If I had mod points I would upvote this. Please do yourself a favor and use LibreWolf. It is literally just Mozilla with the adware/telemetry ripped out, uBlock0 preinstalled and good privacy-preserving defaults while maintaining usability. In other words it is what people who donate money and code to Mozilla are trying to help create, namely, a non-commercial open source browser for users by users.

My only complaint is that they will not shut up and take my money

You're supposed to stand on the shoulders of giants to see further ahead, not to better shit on their heads.

Did you come up with this? Because its spot-on and I plan to use it going forward

Greetings fellow dungeon wanderer Soon it will be Junethack!

Actually my assumption is that they DIDNT add the required staffing, 24x7 support protocols, CAPA protocols, physically distant redundant datacenters, ...

Cloud is not just someone else's computer. It's also someone else's BUSINESS OPERATIONS

Sounds to me like the walled garden model is failing. I like this.

Fedora my daily driver for ~15 years has been rock solid but reasonably agile at picking up new technologies and packages. And now Microsoft has a vested interest in keeping it maintained. I like this.

Seriously there is no engineering benefit to the vast expense and difficulty in putting compute in orbit. The power supplies are ON EARTH, cooling in space is damn near impossible (radiative only), servicing/hw upgrades untenable, There is obviously a reason, but whatever it is it is not technical

You are aware we decoded the entire proteome yes?

Exactly. This kind of s--t is why I do my best to support Monero, the only crypto worthy of the name. We *must* create Privacy Currency, because banks and corporations *will* foist Surveillance Currency on us.

Actually there have been not one but *two* chains called TRUMP. USD1 is a stablecoin like Tether but even murkier. This new coin $WLFI is just an Ethereum ERC-20 token that (iiuc) can wrap USD1.

It looks like the scheme a financier would set up to make tracing money hard if he never heard of Monero. In a world where all the ledgers are open and you can see every address and amount, you will want to obfuscate via redirection and "parallel ledgers". But since it's basically just lining up txns on the ERC-20 chain with txns on the USD1 chain there's really no obfuscation whatsoever.

Some investigative journalists or infosec bloggers are going to start connecting names to addresses in the $WLFI Etherscan and when they do, they are going to become (a) famous and (b) heroes

I used to be in a libertarian cult. I think their fundamental flaw is thinking that because the government lies and fucks up some things, it can *only* lie and fuck things up. They also assume a free market will provide all services well and will self-police... but they do not look at honest academic studies that show time and again that is not actually what happens.

Aside from solving the entire proteome and predicting weather better than our wildest dreams yah total scam
