   Why not just have the manager take everyone's badge, and use it every day? I wonder if the timing on RFID is loose enough to proxy it over the web.

   Wouldn't there be satellite imagery of said ship in the area? Can't you get that from the likes of Planet Labs? If so, this should be a pretty easy theory to (dis)prove.

   This is a thought experiment. Let's say that someone (perhaps DoE) identified that the power grid was at risk of attack. Convincing a bunch of people (politicians) to spend a chunk of change to secure it would be betweeen difficult and

   I'm surprised that this phenomenon has only recently been confirmed. Electrolasers ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrolaser ) have been thought about for 30+ years. The idea if you create a laser-induced plasma

   Gut feeling: the work was outsourced / off-shored, and the team was a set of "outside" developers.

   Does anyone know if this SBC contains RISC-V Worldguard capabilities ( https://www.sifive.com/technology/shield-soc-security )? I've been looking for a RISC-V SBC with a way to protect asymmetric keys. The new ESP32

    I want to feed jellyfish flavoured water (think chicken stock), and then try to cook them. This couldn't be done with wild fishing, but if the jellyfish could be temporarily transferred to a holding tank while alive, it could. The chic

    I've always wondered why NILFS (or similar) isn't used for cases where ransomware is a risk. I'm honestly surprised that it's not mandated to use a append-only / log-structured filesystem for some critical systems (

    I think the idea is that there are error recovery semantics that: 1. Determine the last sane state of the system, and work forward from there. (Read the servo position and try to go from there) 2. Have a the "recovery" routine to

    Throwing AI at the problem might not actually be the worst suggestion. I wonder how the likes of copilot model the AST. Heh, you might even be able to build an approximation of a compiler using AI.

    Is there a reason not to force a linear typing system (at first) -- a la mercury? To simplify the lifetime analysis? And then in later versions that can be relaxed to affine typing, and then subsequently normal lifetimes?

    I actually really like the "mailboxes are on the receiver's heap" thing. One of the big reasons why Go's channels bother me is that they're bounded. This makes things far more complicated, because they're not b

    Maps is very well monetized. They make money from maps ads, as well as maps API[1]. Their minimum $ for maps was very expensive last I checked too. [1]: https://www.investopedia.com/articles/investing/061115/h

    The article seems to be tying two ideas together - immutability and infrastructure as code. I’m unsure why the author decided to link the two ideas. Immutability, IMHO, is a terrible idea for infrastructure as a general purpose rule. Making
