No, I really meant less investment - you don't have to push seamless pipes 10+ km underground for the sodium fuel cell to work. It can literally be built in a garage. Liquid sodium is totally fine unless you pour water over it. You hav

There are so many energy projects that need probably orders of magnitude less investment than even the geothermal You propose, e.g. like the sodium fuel cell I have been writing about from time to time. For instance sodium can be used in it

If you are defending against a nation state, you should be worried about your staff being bribed, otherwise coerced or worse just being foreign agents. In properly run networks, BGP hijacks shouldn't have a noticeable impact.

That is what you get when people reinvent the wheel and lifetimes/ scopes are implicit. Docker could've used something like JSON5 [0] for their configuration format to make the lifetimes explicit. Another time when easy won over s

Of course, sodium can be used in its metal form directly to produce electricity in a fuel cell e.g. as described in US3730776A ( https://patents.google.com/patent/US3730776A/en ). The fuel cell does not require any

I was addressing the NAT point. NAT itself is not a firewall, there are different implementations of NAT e.g. full cone NAT that are particularly bad if what you expect is a layer of stateful randomness. And a firewall these days is not per

Please don't spread these false assurances. Yes, the probability of being attacked is less but it is a false sense of security. Nowadays, you download loads of code from the internet just by navigating to a website using the web browse

Yes, but your offering doesn't have to be so general as for instance on your hardware there does not have to be any sharing of resources with non-trusted parties. You also don't need a lot of the accounting and billing stuff inter

The deployment and operations of modern hardware certainly is a field in itself and always was. What experience do you have with that? It doesn't really seem exponentially more complex to me. Yes, accelerators are more common now and t

The idea is that servers should become a lot more manageable and debuggable to the very bottom. At least that's what Oxide Computer offer. (I am not affiliated with them in any way, just find the idea great.) There is a company in Germ

Depending on where you live, Starlink might be a better offering. They do have IPv6. If you just want to play with IPv6 but don't want to change providers, you can rent e.g. a Hetzner VM in the USA, setup wireguard/ IPsec tunnel t

Actually, dual-stacking a website has some benefits. In some countries the CGNAT boxes tend to be oversubscribed and introduce latency. Apple has observed that too and presented some numbers to developers. Having two protocols can introduce

IPv4 is like legacy code that got extended and dependencies added. Everybody is using it, because everybody is kind of comfortable with it and it mostly works/ people know all the workarounds for its quirks. IPv6 is like the same code

Well, hundreds or thousands of servers can probably be still managed by Ansible with Fabric, Puppet, Chef etc. I don't think focusing too much on the technologies used is useful when planning the overall approach. Most companies could

When you can store electricity more directly instead of the (inefficient) conversion to and from heat it is just crazy to not do so. With electricity, thanks to heat pumps you can "move" heat instead of producing it, which makes h

Using heat for energy storage and then converting back to electricity are ok if you don't care about cost of electricity, the facility or the maintenance. In basically all other cases they are some of the worst ideas. We have much bett
