Rule of thumb: if you cannot staff a team (even a small one) for a service - it cannot be a standalone service. This rule is sometimes a bit too aggressive, but only a bit - for example it doesn't apply to an off-the-shelf database.

The thing is that Syria is, de facto, not one country. Striking targets in different locations requires completely different capabilities, and the US usually targets eastern Syria, while Israel usually targets western Syria or (as of recent

They haven't really been properly combat tested, for example in SEAD/DEAD. But then many platforms haven't been. And the Israeli Air Force did go as far as publicly post selfies from over Beirut :). You also have to wonder ho

Just so you know there's a very intense client modding community centered around the so called anarchy servers, in particular 2b2t. Cheating is allowed on such servers and it actually makes the game very interesting. Examples: - Rusher

For hypersonics it's more about not melting the airframe, regardless of whether there are any people inside or not. That's why I'm skeptical for such vehicles - unless they're disposable, of which there already are plent

Also, Wireguard is really easy to implement, making it less of a problem to have multiple implementations. Each implementation is more likely to be correct/invulnerable. Small implementation was a design objective of Wireguard, after t

This also applies when you scale up to the multi petabyte RAM range via distributed computing/cloud. I wonder if we could actually continue the (very rough) linear fit on a log-log plot.

There are hundreds if not thousands of those up in the space. You can even rent one yourself as a civilian (order one to point the camera/SAR at a specific location).

Yes, there's a cost dashboard, and as far as I can tell it is near real time. There are also cost limits, both configurable by you and enforced by the platform (since they sell this service on monthly credit - you pay at the end of the

Usually no - it's often better to get API access and install a custom frontend (lots of examples on GitHub - hosted or self hosted web apps, Signal/Whatsapp/Discord integrations, command line tools, ...). You'll pay for

Tons of high profile people spoke like that about a large number of individuals in the past. Here I think it's clear that OpenAI has indeed delivered something serious.

It's more about ESPHome rather than Home Assistant. But yeah it is more fun to do it bare bones :). However, over time I found myself "upgrading" my hand made IoT devices to more standard solutions. Standard solutions usually

I have played the slot machine, and it was hilarious how fast it used up the money I had put into it - I had a genuine laugh. I heard that the machines outside of main casinos in Vegas have much higher payout rates, so that you can take mor

One thing that I never understood is the idea that "gambling is fun". In the culture that I'm from gambling is considered something left for the "lower class". It's a bit similar to acting up while heavily drun

I see, but for a 1GiB mapped code space we're talking here about 2^64/(1 Gi) = 17'179'869'184 attempts, or perhaps about half of that with average luck.

Ah, but you first need to have even an approximate idea of where some code is mapped, otherwise you'll fault on nearly all requests into a 64 bit space.

As in you already roughly know where code is mapped, but need the lower bits of the offset? Or also to learn the specific version of the running code?

I don't think it's so fine. I doubt the WeWork guy has (materially) lied to the investors, unlike the FTX guy. I remember him saying that he's building a "physical social network", and everyone seemed in on the game

You're all correct, except there are not that many $30 SDRs out there. Most of them start at around $200 and end in very very high thousands. Also, most SDRs have clearly superior capabilities to the RTL-SDR, though often those capabil

A lot of non-psychiatrist doctors prescribe SSRIs around the world, and that's a very good thing. These drugs are safe.
