That's a pretty good reason for these corporations to keep their grubby hands off Venezuela. At least give the people some time to recover, before stepping in to strip mine their economy again. And when I say 'again', you kno

I get this strong feeling that most of the opposition against IPv6 stems from misconceptions.

> ... but I think ipv6 is inherently more complicated than ipv4 for the average use case. It's not just a thinking shift. IPv6 isn't all that complicated for most common use cases. Its fundamental concepts and rules are simple.

I don't find them equivalent or isomorphic. You are rolling a generic discussion forum and a work planner/tracker into one. In my experience, such two-in-one solutions rarely work well. Discussions and Issues tend to interfere wit

Sounds a lot like the A/B update method used widely in Android and to a lesser extend for embedded GNU/Linux OTA updates. But it uses two distinct boot partitions. Since ZFS is involved here, I assume that boot environments take a

This is the natural way to do it. I have had to use the issue tracker for asking questions (support requests) or informing the developer of something (like of implementing a related feature in another software). Clearly, those aren't i

You're not very off the the mark. To add in that extra detail, xAI is using portable gas turbines that are meant for providing emergency backup power in case of a catastrophic loss of power, like in the event of a natural disaster. Bei

You're welcome! And as you pointed out in your other comment, it's a bit frustrating when someone tries to sow doubt on well-established facts.

What are you implying? That the civilians of Germany too were involved in the Holocaust under Nazism? Sure, they hated the 'other' groups. But the Nazis had to suspend the earlier Aktion T4 after it attracted a severe revolt from

Somebody should also collect the statistics on how many of these aspiring founder dropouts actually succeed. I'm sure that it won't be a flattering figure.

Here are some quotes from an article [1] that directly addresses your point: > The turbines spew nitrogen oxides, also known as NOx, at an estimated rate of 1,200 to 2,000 tons a year — far more than the gas-fired power plant across the

Can somebody explain: 1. The exact problem with the Linux ABI 2. What causes it (the issues that makes it such a challenge) 3. How it changed over the years, and its current state 4. Any serious attempts to resolve it I've been on Linu

The economics behind this isn't rocket science. Micron left the retail market because it is more profitable for them to supply exclusively to the hyperscalers. Not because they can't supply the retail market or because it wasn&#x2

The problem is the economic incentive. In all the prior cases you mentioned, their commercial interests aligned with our own - at least in part. This time however, I'm worried that they aren't concerned about burning down the worl

Considering that these CEOs are talking about replacing all skilled and unskilled labor under them with LLMs, I don't see why they can't be replaced too. In reality, LLMs are overhyped. Even Grok says it straight - LLMs are probab

> The first part works because otherwise reusable rockets wouldn't have been invented (or maybe they'd have been invented 20 years later). I do not want to take credit away from SpaceX in what they achieved. It sure is complex.

Yeah, I have been planning to try out Iroh sometime soon. However, what I explained will take a whole lot of planning on top of Iroh. I also don't want to replicate what others have already achieved. It would be best if something could

Okay, accepted. But are you sure that the supply won't be a problem as well? I mean, even if these products choose a different process nodes compared to the hyperscalers, will the DRAM manufactures even keep those nodes running in favo

by goku12 10mo ago
Okay, but what about the rest? The ones that aren't embedded in someway and use industrial grade PCs/control stations? Or ones with large buffers like network routers? I'm also wondering about the supply of the alternate node

I understand the issue with all the devices. But what about the rest of the things that depend on these electronics, especially DRAMs? Automotive, Aircraft, Marine vessels, ATC, Shipping coordination, traffic signalling, rail signalling, in

Self-hosted FOSS apps are probably the best push towards computing freedom and privacy today. But I wish that the self-hosting community moved towards a true distributed architecture, instead of trying to mimic the paradigms of corporate ce

What I understood is that the author is hoarding them for the future - not because there is any need for it right now. You could argue that it's too much RAM even at end of server's useful lifetime. But who knows? What if he end u

by goku12 10mo ago
If you're gaining advantage by changing RAM from sockets to soldered joints, it's probably time to change the system design altogether. It's better to put the DRAM on the same IC/SoC as the processor - on a dedicated die

You are just repeating the same unpopular debunked arguments that the industry makes out of vacuum. Why does anybody have to know the internals of any system to get the advantages of reparability and serviceability? What were independent se

If the PSU is that crappy, then yes. But these things are supposed to come with over voltage protection, current limiters, resettable fuses etc at the output. Even bad ones are not supposed to cascade their failure to the rest of the system
