Out of curiosity, how do windows filesystems for solutions like these compare to ZFS in terms of reliability and features ? ZFS has been my only choice for NAS servers at home primarily due to it's data integrity features.

I appreciate that, however I feel constraints give meaning to a task, you might argue that I can self impose them, I will argue that I wish those constraints to be imposed by society or by the conditions needed to advance science. To do tha

Not everyone wants to be human for ever, some people take joy in their work and want to continue doing it and contributing in a meaningful way, etc, etc. Nothing to do with being a workaholic or the rest. I hate to say it, but 'leisure

As a piano player you might find this guy interesting, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lubomyr_Melnyk His playing style focuses nearly exclusively in using harmonics and resonance to create his music.

Don't you feel it's a bit harsh to summarise the entire debate between idealism and realism as hogwash ?

I see your point, however these humans are alive, thinking, using power you might say anyway. There is a nearly infinite task in improving our society and science, and we have strong evidence that humans become self destructive or just dest

Plenty of developers come out of non CS degrees, enjoy your degree, it will give you a more in depth understanding on computational substrates (electronics) which is a good advantage. On the other hand... you should do your self a favour an

Eh, bots these days use a good distribution of user agents strings and you can define the type when buying traffic typically. There are ways of finger printing browser engines but that's not done for ad bidding. Plus even if it comes i

That was mostly the point, though there are dozens of offshoots I'd love to argue to death on. I feel quite strongly that the path we take on labour and automation will strongly pivot us towards very different futures. Do we want to li

I don't really want to divert this thread into a full discussion on the validity and value of IQ tests, but I do find the view you are espousing to be very depressing and I had hoped that they had died along with Ellis island and phren

Are you honestly suggesting there is anything other than education preventing them from it ? That asides, research mathematics is only a small subset of mental tasks available to humans. There are a lot of areas that could benefit from &quo

I do wonder about the "not everyone can contribute" perhaps they can't contribute in building cars, but with a cultural shift and education, well there are a lot of avenues of research and mathematics that only require though

Original games were organised by the city states and were primarily a means of showing off their best potential soldiers, though it served several other reasons as well, like most things it got complex. Fun fact, even though there was meant

I won't argue that they would fit right in with any government Greece has had since Kapodistrias. However there are a lot of good people in Greece right now trying to turn the situation around, the Olympic games of the past made things

Let's say that I have some direct experience, both with working within the Olympics games and with Greece. I don't honestly want that cesspool anywhere near Greece, the level of corruption and incompetence I witnessed by the olymp

True, but i'd rather the brothers kept up the excellent work with the actual simulation, and just let others focus on the interface work via plugins. StoneSense and Dwarf therapist developers are doing an excellent job at enriching dwa

To be honest, most people play dwarf fortress with considerably plugin assistance, including the much needed Dwarf therapist. However I feel like the complaining over the interface is really unnecessary, any interface would struggle with th

Your comment about the Medici line confused me a bit since I believed them to have ended quite a while back, however there do appear to be two cadet lines still around. When do you generally consider a line over for the purposes of the stud

So expose a mentally ill person to more triggers for his mental illness, for something which society despises and condemns him for ? I fail to see how this could ever be a good idea or moral. It's akin to saying lets make serial killer

I kind of agree in the "depends on the unwillingness of some participants" however to play is to often discover the boundaries and the rules of the game. As people often discover in sports, the rules aren't what is written in

Have a look at the end of the video, you will see it's finishing process in snapshots to engineering specs. The main process you are seeing is only the initial forging before you use higher accuracy machinery for the final processing.
