Sure, but being able to pay for inference and nothing but inference out of revenue leads to what end?

Probably a mix of all parts, also in Africa there are hospitals you would certainly try to avoid if you can.

Is it legal to let people suffer or even die at the ER on Kenya if they don’t happen to carry a few k$?

Who is going to write tests? But I like the fact that this approach implicitly approves of the stochastic parrot model. I mean, given enough computing power and sufficiently well made tests, I could just generate random strings of increasin

I have worked a fair share of that kind of jobs in the past. The colleagues on my level who cared about more than being paid and not getting fired where the absolute majority. People want to belong. They want to work. The ones who are the e

Fair enough. A paper map and the ability to navigate offline would be a nice backup, too. Not that I wouldn’t use GPS in distress.

What I don’t need doesn’t need to live unencrypted in my RAM. Of course I do. It is standard behaviour of iOS, and of a lot of password managers. If someone grabs my laptop and runs, at least they can’t capture my hn account.

Instead of having an open port in my router and sending data in plain text, I would use an ssh tunnel or a vpn. Or probably put the entire web site on the VPS.

If a significant share of your employees optimise in the sense of doing the least of work possible, without getting fired, you have a huge problem anyways. Usually, given the right conditions, people have intrinsic interest in doing a good

That is redundancy in my book. I don’t expect holes in my GNSS devices. And if you want to be sure, bring three, because two GNSS units with different readings are not very helpful.

All true, but it is still bad style. There is no need to keep decrypted passwords in memory the user hasn’t even used in the session (or after they logged in to a certain website).

The Swiss cheese model is what people use to sell you more 'security' related software systems that inherently involve more problems. (Also cheese is not very durable, even the kind without holes.)

Plus mechanical release mechanisms of heavier machinery were often designed in a way that the clutch snaps at a certain point (also in order to reduce wear in the clutch).

I once changed a broken release bearing of a truck. It was a relatively simple repair but the very heavy gearbox has to be taken out to do this - which is problematic especially if done on a yard without proper equipment. Since then I alway

Problem is, the way economic activity is organised in general, there is no transition path from complex bloated systems to well designed completely human auditable systems. For example given the inherent (and proven) security risks of the W
