I bet strongly against that. "Decentralized" systems do not scale, and are impossible to keep clear of spam.

It's just POSTing the image to a web server running from something else. I don't understand why they are doing dumb things like passing everything to a shell when PHP has curl support of its own, and imagemagick.

Perhaps a little exaggeration, agreed. The wavelengths you want are in the UV end of things, which I assumed would be mostly clumsy CO2 tubes. Just the concept of giving a consumer a high power laser they can't even see makes me extrem

I don't agree, their demonstration video is enough without further domain experience to see that it is at a minimum ineffective at what it claims. If it was really supposed to be able to give you the smoothest shave ever, they would at

Light has a fun property of being bent when it passes through substances that have different optical densities. With some combinations of material and process we can exploit this property to achieve total internal reflection[0]. With a cyli

There's no laser there. If there was a laser there it would be a significant hazard to everybody in the room, so it's good it's completely fake. With the sort of power you would need to be cutting hairs in any capacity simply

Yes. In my place of work that sort of behavior towards anybody would see you instantly excluded from every social circle, not by regulation just because we have some moral core and empathy. If people are being made uncomfortable by others f

That's going to be problematic, lots of people at conferences talk in low voice about confidential things. Surely there's better ways to combat harassment than pervasive surveillance.

I don't think that's an issue, they have enough data that as soon as you can find one person they can probably extrapolate the rest of them. It's kind of creepy but whatever.

My comparison was between the C1 offering from Scaleway and the lowest DigitalOcean package. Scaleway has far larger disk and memory, but the disk is remote over the network link and the 4 ARM cores are 32bit and terribly slow. I really lik

It's approximately the same price as Digital Oceans lowest offering, which has significantly higher performance in every area.

I thought ARM servers might be nice on scaleway but was quite disappointed in the performance. 32bit and all disk IO over a network connection is really not a good start. Maybe that will improve when we see more ARM64 around.
