The market is a wet dream of manufacturers, of course. Already knowing that for all the forseable future however much you can produce will be sold at very good prices - amazing.
Until the house of cards comes down. Most of the stuff ordered is, as someone put well into a meme, money that doesn't yet exist buying chips that don't yet exist for data centers that have not yet been built.
Basically, violence in the Middle East started on a significant scale with the collapse of the ecosystem. Natural climate shifts in the area reduced food available and regions that were inhabitable. This resulted in massive population migrations (the Sea People, the Babylonians, etc). As natural resources were depleted and became highly centralised, violence became worse. The collapse of the tin market resulted in Dark Ages for many cultures in the region, where societies imploded catastrophically.
As wealth increased, corruption increased. We know all about a copper merchant in Babylonian times, but it was unusual enough that he wrote a long and rambling letter in cuneiform about it. These sorts of complaints weren't common but increased. Corruption requires chaos, and chaos generates conflict. So this relationship should not be surprising. It's not that corruption causes violence, but corruption and violence have the same cause and are tightly coupled.
That is highly speculative.
Now that the Big Tech companies have done all their training on illegal material it's important that no startups can compete.
The US hasn't been free this century.
Donald, is that you?
Trump and cronies appear to indulge in insider trading on these prediction markets.
Meanwhile IRS is banned from auditing Trump’s past tax returns -- what does Trump have to hide ?
If you extend this regulation then all prediction gambling like the stock market will be prohibited. Also goodbye to powerball and anything else because guessing could be considered potential prediction.
There is no upgrade path from AL2 to AL23.
You have to completely rehost your system if you want to continue using Amazon Linux. That's my point and it still stands.
You're on your own. There is no upgrade path.
Amazon Linux 2 goes end-of-life on June 30.
The difference is, that at least until now open source teams have taken full advantage of these responsible bug disclosures and actually fixed their damn bugs. That Microsoft Windows bug was also responsibly disclosed, and Microsoft fumbled it anyway. Now we have a six year old exploit, which is public and available all over the place, and no mitigation.
I guess I'll stick with open source
I agree with your sentiment 100%, but the hacked entity was OPM, not OMB.
Clouds will depend on the frequency.
X-Ray lasers are extremely difficult but they exist. Stepping down from extremely difficult to merely difficult may have some merit.
Whether it's worth the cost will be interesting. Microsats is curious - geostationary would be an easier place to start without the steering complexity.
An interesting project for sure.
Remember when they ported VAX/VMS to PC architecture and put a Windows 3 GUI on top?
That evolved.
"Watch this space."
> pay the Chinese to host our fucking military servers
no, but that's literally what they were doing.
DC doesn't run a serious country.
