This works if you can connect your actions directly with the outcomes. How would would you assess the efficacy of preventative actions whose consequences are delayed and uncertain? "I think we should X because it will probably contribu

Do you mean "Static Mappings"? I have a couple dozen of those and had no issue during my pfSense upgrade. I also rely heavily on two settings in "Services > DHCP Server": - [x] Enable DNS Registration (leases will aut

I actually read "Never Split the Difference" a couple years ago! Initially just to prepare for a salary negotiation but I found it to be very useful in many other ways. Your second recommendation is also appropriate: I had a ton o

This feels like a distraction from what is really needed: a return to open standards/protocols. I love the idea of Matrix but the complexity of key management and federation for the average person is far too high. Signal is a perfect d

I have read in the past that ASICs for LLMs are not as simple a solution compared to cryptocurrency. In order to design and build the ASIC you need to commit to a specific architecture: a hashing algorithm for a cryptocurrency is fixed but

Can you explain why ECC is great for ZFS in particular as opposed to any other filesystem? And if the data leaves the NAS to be modified by a regular desktop computer then you lose the ECC assurance anyway, don't you?

If you're approaching it from a "semantic pixel peeping" perspective then yes, I understand what you mean. It's a pretty clean bite... but it's important to remember the context in which most images will be assessed

Hyperrealistic beans? The focal plane? You are reaching really hard here. The table grain is the only thing that gives it away - if it weren't for that no one without advance warning is going to notice that it's not real.

No one has the right to someone else's IP. If Disney decides to pull all their shows and shut down then there could be no legal way to watch it other than pre-existing DVDs/BluRay. The issue at hand is the absence of a legal owner

Not a tangent – this is exactly the point I was trying to make but perhaps did not do so as clearly as you did. The infringement is always about distribution, not consumption.

And much better keyboard control. It can also do interesting things such as run in 1:1 scaling mode (for example, 4K on a 1080p monitor) and then you can use your mouse to zoom in and out (wheel) and Ctrl+drag to pan around. VLC walked so M

I think your third point is what I've had to attune to when criticizing cloud dependence. I think if your entire source of revenue is dependent on AWS then you should be prepared for 16+ hours of downtime per year. Individuals notice i

My annoyance was based on that page :D But I've since learned that they are in fact using SemVer which means it was my expectations of what the project was trying to do that was mismatched. I didn't expect Major updates to mirror
