It depends on why you're testing. You never just test to gather data without purpose. So when we were doing PCR testing, it was partly about gathering population statistics to build dashboards, because a surge in positive PCR test resu

Think of all the gaze and marketing data we can extract and sell to third parties!

If your DHCP server + DNS Resolver support it you can set up a local TLD and register machines by hostname using DHCP and then have the DNS Resolver in your router resolve those hostnames as hostname.local-tld. You don't need any confi

The real "fish out of water" question is "tell me how to use Ansible to configure 200k embedded appliances where the end customer doesn't always allow firmware updates through their firewall?"

At the very least you can put it at the bottom of your /etc/resolv.conf prioritization and put some backup systems like an SSH bastion in /etc/hosts so that there's some system out there that you can reach with mutu

What you're asking is akin to "why do people sometimes need a boat to get from point A to point B? All I've used are cars and I think that should be fine."

I think you're assuming too much care. Right now they haven't adopted that business model because they don't see it as a viable business model. As soon as they realize that they can lock certain categories of query behind a d

I suspect that a lot of people are ignoring the shift to a model where you feed entire specifications to a group of models in differing configurations controlling different aspects of the development task. In that model it doesn't real

I think Zuckerberg is pretty out of touch with how people actually live and that makes him pretty blind to the actual implications of these technologies. It's too easy to become enamored of technologies and way too hard to find actual

That's going to stop eventually, and I think at that point we're going to see business models more like the major CAD providers.

I'm not arguing for myself, I'm arguing for the tens of millions of people who do not understand this system, are not aware of how it works, and are constantly pressured through employer plans, tax deferment, and other aspects of

The reason we didn't see it in the US first is because he was probably gathering data from a pilot system. When he finishes his moonbase and/or volcano lab then we should probably start moving to the Northern Territories or the Yu

Hopefully you didn't accidentally waive your right to class action by signing something at some point in the last 15 years that survived multiple buy-outs to land in the hands of some company tertiary to the lawsuit.

If you think it's a wakeup call about passive investment I think you're asking the wrong question. The vast majority of people do not want to become experts in the financials of 800 different companies in order to maximize their a

This was always the endgame of moving away from managed pensions to 401k's. First you get everyone's retirement income into the stock market, and then you use the stock market to take it all away from them.

It's also probably good to make sure students know how to figure using a pencil and paper because pulling a calculator out on a job site is pretty impractical.

We flipped from an Epicurean mindset to a Stoic or Nihilistic mindset. IOW, we stopped talking about helping people lead good lives and started talking about how we can all weather stress and work hard and deprive ourselves of good things t

Except if I really wanted to be an awful human being, I'd just buy property, subdivide it, and then multiply my votes in the town election by the number of property units I've individually sold to my various LLCs. This is kind of

Presumably you test some things and use common sense for others. Like if you search for "grain filling oak" using an engine like Kagi(because Google just sells you the same product repackaged over and over) then you'll get pe

It's a kind of crab bucket thing in the sense that people see other people getting slightly ahead on something and instead of looking for their own way to get ahead they reach up and try to pull the other person back down into the buck
