And then some server vendors insist on on doing some out of bound interrupts from their management engines, which introduce odd latency spikes that are hard to debug.

A very cool project that has had some success is https://althea.net/ . Perhaps you could start a network in your area.

Take a look at CUE ( https://cuelang.org/ ). It allows for backwards compatible config files, among other things.

It was not always like that. There was a time when companies were not using so many finance tricks and had better resilience and balance sheets. Unfortunately, since the 80's there has been a trend of increased financialization of the

Akash looks cool! I am working on a self hosting solution ( https://protos.io ) that is similar to Sandstorm, and I've been dreaming of a way to deploy VMs on various cloud providers, without requiring an account creation bef

Synapse is a beast. I am looking forward to a more compact server to become viable. Matrix is working on Dendrite ( https://github.com/matrix-org/dendrite ) and there is Conduit ( https://conduit.rs ) as well.

I agree, but I think that is more of a long term concern. The USD will be dumped as the worlds reserve currency but I presume this will be a long and volatile process. There are 2 reasons why I think the USD will slowly be dethroned as the

Short term, the USD will probably strengthen because of huge demand from emergent markets and other places that have USD denominated loans. For more info you can watch the Dollar Milkshake theory [1], or some of the work Raoul Pal has done.

"The $1200 money isn't free, it is borrowed from future taxpayers." That is debatable. They say this but at some point you have to wonder, will they have the capacity to take it off the balance sheet without massive inflation

I agree. That is why I stopped using languages that have a poor concurrency story. Also, using an external queue and workers considerably increases the operational complexity of the system. An in-process solution with some light persistence

There is no shortage of atrocious examples, like this one, that prove that people need to take digital sovereignty seriously. Our data and our interactions should not be intermediated by some digital feudalistic lord, without any recourse w

I am not sure if this is accurate but intuitively, in strong psychedelic experiences it feels that both the DMN and DAT are active at the same time, which leads to, among many other things, a clearheaded view of mental processes that are ha

I can't tell you how happy I was when I discovered noms several days ago, and then the subsequent disappointment that it is not developed anymore. Anyway, now that it's in the open maybe someone with the technical chops to develop

I really hope WireGuard becomes a standard and get's included in the macOS/iOS and Windows kernels as well. Key management and and other fancy features could be left to userspace applications but having the basic wg capability in

Very cool. I see that respeaker has even a 6 mic array for the pi: https://respeaker.io/6_mic_array/

Thanks for the tip! Both Rhasspy and PicoVoice look great. Anyone can recommend a microphone array that works with the raspberry pi?

If you are a target of the NSA or some other state actor, then perhaps. If not, and you take a bit of care to disable the voice assistant on your devices (Siri, Google. etc), then you should be fine.

As far as I know Mycroft does its speech recognition in the cloud, so your voice has to leave your network unfortunately. This is the reason why I don't have a voice assistant yet. There was snips.ai which tried to solve this problem l

That's why I don't like to call the current system capitalism. I find Varoufakis' description more apt: socialism for the rich and capitalism for the poor. Or put in another way, privatised gains and socialised losses.

Inflation is a loaded term, so I replied to mention that asset inflation was high, even though that is not reflected in the reported inflation numbers. As for you second question, I think the answer is yes, because for now I see CBs injecti

There was great inflation in financial assets, for the whole decade leading up to the current crisis. So there is a good chance the same thing will happen again, now that the central banks have taken the big guns out. I keep hearing that th

Hard to say, but if FED does inject a lot of liquidity into the market, it's possible that the stock market will re-flate. So if you have equities and other hard assets (gold, real-estate, bitcoin etc.), you might do good in the future

You're probably right, but keep in mind that for the past 100 years we have seen a systematic trend in lower interest rates that brought massive debt expansion and financialization of the economy. We are at the 0% interest rate at the

Linuxkit allows you to build your own appliance like OS, while Bottlerocket is more of an end user project. A project that is more similar to Bottlerocket is https://www.talos.dev or https://www.projectatomic.io

That's great. I didn’t know that all the gTLDs are blacklisted, I thought they only the first 100k. This should make the transition smoother
