Not likely. The snapshot doesn't write much, and both SSDs and ZFS are copy on write. Which means the cost of writing after a snapshot is the same as before the snapshot. On the other hand context is missing. Both SSDs and ZFS don&#x27

The complications here is that all voice, messages, and identities are going through the Xbox live servers. Facebook is a bad example. Facebook has many games on their platform. Getting banned from Facebook would ban you from all those game

The definition of AI is very vague these days. But Bayes filters are trained on good and bad data, and then learn over time automatically by what people mark and unmark as spam. This is exactly what things you would call AI do. A person or

Various OpenPGP clients have this feature as well, such as OpenKeychain. OpenGPG, the the most commonly used implemention of OpenPGP, doesn't have QR codes because it's meant to be a cli and a library. With an open standard differ

If the parents are talking about choice, then forced Chromebooks are not choice. The students must use them, and schools like them because they are very locked down and centrally observable. But the student has no choice

I don't think you understood the comments above, but I definitely don't understand your point... Compilers introduce bugs, yes. Compilers are code, and code can have bugs and regressions. But the comments above make no mention of

In your world, I have a service that speaks only ip4v2 and a client that speaks ip4v1. How does my packet get there? Everything in between me and them needs to understand how to handle this conversation. Old routers and switches may drop or

There is one more and that is unreliable or filtered connections. Having wireguard style VPN on a network that is unreliable can keep connections alive that might otherwise be killed. This usually isn't due to any error correction, jus

That's a hyper specific nit you got there, and only referenced once in the middle of the article. However sudo -i, sudo su, and sudo su - are all common ways to achieve the desired result, with very subtle differences. Sudo su - is my

I don't fully understand what you are saying, and I don't know what systems you're including in "all". The system you describe building is exactly what nix does, as well as debian, El, and Arch. Their spec files des

These statistics are meaningless. How many Tesla cars with full self driving are there compared to regular cars? A Tesla with FSD will only be using FSD a small fraction of the time. If we had statistics on the number of hours FSD was activ

Of the cloud storages, AWS S3 is the most expensive for both storage and bandwidth. A half petabyte at other places such as wasabi would cost 35k a year, including bandwidth. Open street maps by comparison in 196GB compressed including full

I am no fan of the cloud, but with that many disks, failure rate goes up. So you also need someone to go to the DC. All the disks will bought around the same time, which means failures start to cluster up as well. The machine also needs to

I don't think you nessairly need to give up interop. Kinda like his JavaScript can call wasm modules. The compiler would need to know how to use nixpkgs, but the user could write their derivations any way they see fit.

I don't mind the nix language, and I far prefer it to lisp. But something I haven't understood is that nix compiles to derivations. I don't think it would be difficult to have a nix compiler that takes Lisp or whatever and sp

In my experience, bleeding edge and stable are about the same amount of pain. Breakage isn't actually that common, and fixes come a lot faster. And even if you perfer stable, the latest will become stable eventually. Not trying your wo

My reading seems to be that the compiler can and will do it automatically. The annotations make enforcement. It's easy to make the compiler put something on the heap by accident.

A single family home can be an apartment. It's a _home_ not necessarily a house. Just like a 600 sqft studio in Manhattan can be a "mansion" because it is over a million dollars. Many people living in New York rent, with no a

You make it sound like any government should be able to cut ties with any company at a whim. Microsoft and Apple dominate the desktop market, with Microsoft in a commanding lead. Imagine if the UK government said no one could buy SQL Server
