That’s not necessarily true! I can think of 3 nearby Rocky Mountain resort towns without great cellular or terrestrial internet.

I think it’s slightly more likely this will happen. From the Taiwanese perspective, this could be seen as partly collateral for some of the big defense sales that happened recently. The US is very motivated to bring some chip manufacturing

What problems have you had with the file system? I have had softupdates turned on for as long as I can remember, and haven’t run into any issues.

I forgot about that chemistry! I’m excited about it as well. It still seems to be unobtanium for my use-cases :)

The problem here is that there's not good alternative to Lithium for now. LiFePO4 (commonly seen as LFP) chemistry is a little safer, but also less energy dense & heavier. It's unclear to me whether or not these downsides rule

It’s really too bad! I’d rather not be using AI as a search replacement, but I do feel like search results have degraded significantly.

In the original comment’s defense, sometimes you need to find where to start. For example: when writing a research paper, one might hastily cast a wide net before locating and drilling into a topic from a respected source. I’m not well-vers

This is how I use it as well. I don’t trust it, but find it more useful than Google these days for zeroing in on a topic.

I haven’t been through the trademarking process myself, but I would assume that a LOT of them exist. Would it be possible to register a trademark that looks similar to another company’s and impersonate them? I can’t imagine the process woul

I think the life support problem on Mars is a supply/demand problem. We haven't been able to make it yet, so why worry about developing life support systems? The initial proposals I have seen is to send robotic missions first to p

Out of curiosity - what problems did you run into?

Many of the design decisions they’ve taken don’t make sense otherwise. The rocket appears to be designed for reusability in Mars. They could have followed traditional designs and saved a lot of money.

What exactly did the officials think would happen when it was approved in the first place? The rocket is mind bogglingly huge with a mind boggling amount of thrust. I did want to comment I’m aware of concrete chunks being thrown in the firs

I think it's probably because most skin cancers manifest after reproductive age.

Absolutely! It just happens to be a good fit for me :) I use very little bandwidth and processing with the vast majority of my projects. In the even that I do need heavy lifting for a couple hours, it still tends to be a pretty minimal cost

If I had to guess, capitalism?

Totally disagree! :) My monthly costs are minuscule with a reserved with a t4g instance, Lambda, S3 and Cloudfront as my primary usage. Honestly, it beats out the “budget” VPS providers I was previously using, and is a heck of a lot more po

I completely agree. It’s odd they would announce charging for dedicated IPv4 while not having a free shared egress solution (unless I’m misunderstanding). I would expect them to reduce NAT pricing in the long run, but who knows.

We have a human in the loop as the fallback. It’s just a different attack vector. Brute force becomes a lot harder, but social engineering becomes easier.

Weird. My fortune 100 company doesn’t use SMS for 2FA.

Sure, but the comment I was responding to referenced auditing the DoD. This is a whole different can of worms :)

by pnpnp 3y ago
You’re missing the “compartmentalized” nature of TS/SCI projects. You would need many, many auditors or the paperwork would be enormous to be cleared for each one. Yes it’s technically possible, but the current model doesn’t support mo

This has been coming for a long time, and I expect other services to follow suit. After you hit IPv4 exhaustion, the price crunch only gets worse. I guess it finally hit a tipping point where it’s going to be taken seriously.

I think so as well. When M1 Macs started pushing ARM chips out there were growing pains, but most of the ecosystem adapted fairly quickly.

by pnpnp 3y ago
Things like the SR-71 and B-2 development programs are off the higher level books. Due to the compartmentalized nature of some of the programs (with good reason), it’s infeasible the DoD would ever pass a traditional audit. Much like the CI

To be fair, the US Army puts a looooot of ammo in the ground, which can have pretty severe consequences. The consumer market still uses it, which is probably a tiny fraction of what the military uses in training.

I have been a huge advocate of NATS. For anyone looking to support multiple message patterns on one message bus, this is what you want to check out. In AWS terms, it’s like SNS/SQS/Kinesis all rolled into one bus & very intuit
