tl;dr: physicists incl. hawking worry about singularities and event horizons, but to us, external observers, these need infinite time to actually form. basically, stop worrying about objects that can't actually exist in our light cone.

If it's part of legislation, you can fight it. If the official ideology is equality and racial prejudices "don't exist", then any problems are suppressed and you can't do anything. Soviet union was defacto an aparth

Have you heard about Roma? The communist states tried to help them but in a hamfisted ways like separating kids from parents. They did nothing to actually resolve racism. Many Roma ended up in squalor in segregated settlements. That goes on

Yes the article is very meandering. But near the end he mentions that the chips nvidia sold last three quarters alone would require about 15GW of electricity to actually run. But where are all the datacenters? And how long can this go on? W

Are you aware how https proxying works? Clients use CONNECT method and after that everything is opaque to the proxy. So without mitm you only know remote IP address.

No mention of taint mode, you had to untaint all data coming from user. By comparing to fixed string or convert to number or filter through regexp at least. If this were more broadly adopted, would save everyone so many headaches.

After I had a reckoning with bitrot, would muchly recommend to use something with ECC memory for NAS. And a checksumming filesystem with periodic scrubing that won't get corrupt on you silently.

The electronics went so cheap recently, so selling it to strangers is rarely worth the effort. Then there's a question, what OS are you going to put on an old PC. And then even if they are, say, only using browser, and would be okay wi

Then someone finds out you are rewarding outsiders for something they are doing for free anyway. Such cutting into company profit is inexcusable. You are supposed to ride even your own employees raw to maximize profits, not to splurge money

They can be disabled by firewall, iptables can match outgoing sockets by owner uid. I know it's not the same thing as landlock, still can come in handy. And raw sockets require elevated privileges anyway iirc.

The question is, is it more or less just than allowing for abuse of all kinds of loopholes to avoid paying taxes altogether. Hiding everything in "unrealized" and other kinds of hitherto untaxable stuff. Even if they would have no

I don't think they are highly concerned with people installing their own OS on desktop machines, that's still a fringe group. And most of us are using smartphones too. Also there are likely other trivial exploits like CUPS which w

Before you could assume signed arithmetic overflow will be whatever the CPU does, or null pointer derefs will be trapped by the OS. That is pretty big difference from what can happen now, moved C away from that "portable assembler"
