You can absolutely regulate towards the goal of affordable, instantaneous money transfers within the context of the traditional finance system. The EU has done just that with SEPA (Single Euro Payments Area). Here's the SEPA instant cr

It's 8×100G yeah, but they also use two fiber pairs so four lanes go on each. The QSFP-DD modules are also bigger (they stick out further from the slot) and have more power available, so that probably helps somewhat with engineering.

100G-LR4 is a technology that's on its way out, and this illustrates why. Muxing four 25G lanes is complex and costly and these days also unnecessary at 100G. 100G is going single lambda. This is still the way to build 200G/400G&#

One of the Finnish news stories stated that as of now, the municipality is receiving only one fifth of the normal amount of waste heat they use for district heating. That sounds like they have shut a lot of things down to cope with the loss

This is no longer necessary as of Podman 3.3 or so--there's a single Podman systemd unit that will launch all containers that have restart=always.

I have a Shenzhen-made 12V/20Ah LiFePo4 battery that has Bluetooth and iOS/Android apps for management. It, too, prompts for a password if you want to enter the "Pro Info" screen that shows per-cell voltages, BMS error s

Enterprise drives with PLP (power loss protection) are surprisingly affordable. I would absolutely choose them for workstation / home use. The new Micron 7400 Pro M.2 960GB is $200, for example. Sure, the published IOPS figures are not

For just the fuel, yeah, but the expendable second stage adds a lot of impact.

1) The JWST is not in the shadow of the Earth. It’s solar powered. 2) It didn’t cost 9,000,000 dollars to build. That’s off by 1000x.

The Mac mini itself is not the only hardware cost for AWS here, though: I wouldn't be surprised if their Thunderbolt Nitro hardware cost just as much each. It has to be a very low volume device (relative to other things AWS does).

The Wikipedia entry you linked to estimates 2021 internet traffic at 276 EB/month. That’s an average 839,625 gigabits per second. So 60 Gbps is one 14,000th of that. Of course, one figure was about capacity and the other about actual t

Right. Dual stack IPv4 + IPv6 is strictly worse for reliability than plain IPv4 because both stacks need to work perfectly or you'll encounter issues. In that sense it provides the opposite of redundancy. Happy Eyeballs (RFC 8305) is t

Netbox is awesome and I have just started to plan some automations to use its data (I currently just use the GUI). However, if I use it as a source of truth for what is essentially config management, it would be replacing something that&#x2

These details about the proprietary "SmartScreen" were really useful. We have been sending login code emails via AWS SES and have had a lot of issues with Hotmail/Outlook.com not delivering them. My takeaways: 1) There's

Over the last year or so the company I run moved some content delivery workloads from a CDN onto our own network. So now we have something like 100Gbit/s of total external bandwidth. The next thought in my addled brain is that since we

Sounds like the parties need each other, then. Could it be that economic links promote peace and stability?

You absolutely should check the MX records, though. It’s easy and catches tons of typos. I was floored by the difference when I implemented this as pre-check before a Stripe Checkout form.

What audits? The point is that there hasn’t been anything like an actual audit.

Yeah, that doesn't sound like my experience at all (which is limited to this one place). If anything, the burgers I like are less dry and less chewy than the beef-based competition.

The local burger joint closest to my house is 100% vegan and uses Beyond patties. It’s also, in my opinion, the best burger in town. I’m a carnivore and would definitely notice the difference in a Pepsi challenge of the patties themselves,

Thank you very much for this! One small thing I noticed: the curl examples on the v6 page call the v4 version.

With the disclaimer that I know nothing about this: doesn't the M1 have a separate "Neural Engine" for this? So it's using neither the CPU nor the GPU cores for TensorFlow?

The retail box came with a replica of Henry Jones’s grail diary. That was mind blowing for a ten-year-old who had just seen the movie. All in all still one of my fondest gaming memories.
