Since we are asking why questions. Why does everyone else have to support them with tax money when it costs 30k to run a wire to a house? If there is no prospect of scaling it further to boost local infrastructure, then they should be footi

It could be the opposite, it is not as demanded because it is not as available. If it were, I thunk people might have preferred it more often.

Tangentially related question, maybe someone can explain why graph/quad/grid ruled notepads are harder to find and way more expensive. I can easily get college ruled notepad for $.50-$1 almost in any department store, but graph ru

Here is an example of contact discovery protocol by Signal using remote attestation [1]. Client itself can ensure that the code running on the server is authentic. It is computationally insensitive, but beneficial to the end user. [1] http

Attestation is great for cloud computing. Horrible for user devices.

Based on you blog the city you moved to is Pine Bluff in AK with a population just short of 50k. Have you tried showing up at public hearing and gathering some support from the public?

Hacker Lab positioned themselves as for profit. I am more interested in sustainable non-profit, so probably relying on charity to stay afloat can be fine, if it is reserved for nice-to-have things, that can be reduced if needed.

Ok, [e: less than half the aforementioned figure] is <$150, then maybe that specific machine required multiple classes?

Looks like they were in Provo, UT and could not find a suitable place there. I expected that they had moved form somewhere in the West Coast, like Oregon or California.

Wow... I assume this happened in the US? And then we are going to see articles, that manufacturing is dying in the US and there are no qualified or interested people and how it needs to change asap. Can you share more from your experience?

$300 is a lot for basic classes to get started. Are we talking about Ultimaker 3d printer level of equipment or a CNC machine for tens of thousands?

I find it very impressive. Some things that stood out to me is fully manual onboarding and even manually updating the database. It makes tons of sense, but as an engineer we tend to want to automate all the things, and, I guess, loose momen

I read his Black swan and Skin in the game and he had some good ideas there, that stuck with me, so definitely recommend these books. But your summary is very accurate, so his books should be taken with a huge grain of salt.
