uuid.uuidv4() recently switched to "adaptive entropy" instead of "xmax entropy" in an effort to save costs on non-premium users.

At this point, I see no identity verification or proof of some kind of humanity working. I think what we need is the equivalent of what was done for CORS: client/server cooperation. That is, APIs should mark that they are human only, a

Im not sure proof of identity solves anything. People will still have LLMs with their real identity verified.

I dont think the problem is parties by themselves. I think it's more the fact that the US system cannot accomodate more than 2 parties. Plenty of other democracies have parties, including cross government branches. What makes the US un

Snapshotting a filesystem is trivial with e.g. btrfs. You can hook snapshot creation in your agent. That is a single one liner of btrfs subvolume snapshot, in a single hook configuration file, ready to be valued at $10B as quantum agentic v

Isn't there a nasty selection/volunteer bias at play with the developers?

> I'm not sure what you mean by "fix" DHCP SLAAC was part of IPv6 since the original RFC, its a horribly over engineered stateless replacement of DHCP. Nobody asked for that.

by Galanwe 5mo ago
Its not just NAT, it's also DHCP. Somehow the nerds creating IPv6 decided to not only add bytes (which is what people wanted), but also "fix" DHCP and NAT, which nobody asked for.

I used powerline before. From my experience its really bad, unstable, slow. What did work pretty well though is MoCa, basically reusing coax/antenna cabling. I get a pretty stable connection roughly equivalent to 2.5G.

I guess buying the second hand devices wouldnt be that expensive.

If we are going the distributed way, then why not host everything on a blockchain, instead of federating thousands of small instances? I would be happier with my code distributely hosted on every participating node, rather than federating i

> it only promises memory safety if you restrict yourself to safe APIs which simply isn't always possible. Less than that actually, considering Rust has its own definition of what "safe" means.

You can find 2.5G switches with a reasonable amount of ports on the cheap. For 10G though the cost is still prohibitive IMHO unless you are fine with 2 ports. For cables, I think everything converged to cat6a a while ago, which is both reas

by Galanwe 6mo ago
10G DACs are no cheaper than cat6, which is perfectly fine for 10G at most practical distances. Considering the target audience of these cards it seems pretty obvious to me that letting users "just buy a cat 6 cable" is miles more

I am shocked that soft and fresh cheese are conflated in the same category. Both the texture and process are different. Brie is nothing like Ricotta.

Hum no, to me they are orthogonal. v4 was built around the idea of multiple free standing networks linked by gateways. v6 was built around the idea of a universal network. I dont care about what your LAN adress space look like when I'm

by Galanwe 6mo ago
... and they were right. v6 adoption is often an all or nothing, because if you run both stacks, you have to ensure they are consistent. While you can reasonably do it on your home LAN, doing it across an entire infrastructure is the worst.
83.
by Galanwe 6mo ago
I agree with you. While I can see some benefits to v6 on the internet, I find v4 to be miles easier and cleaner to work with in a LAN setup. Unfortunately though v6 oversteps on LAN features and makes bridging v4 and v6 way uglier than it s

Every year I just wish someone will come up with IPv4-with-more-bytes and we can switch to it before IPv6 gets another percent usage share.
