Geo location aside, putting things off shore is really a way to drive up cost such as maintenance like mad and it makes even less sense when you are working with large surfaces rather than something designed around having height and wind to

China seems happy to export solar panels to anyone.. Taiwan would probably not like to be a big importer of something it can't procure from other trade partners at similar prices though. I think Taiwan wants tariff wars with China to r

I suppose a headline that doesn't have much to do with the content is also such a technology?

This is GPL code so decompiling isn't necessary or the problem. Accepting over the wall low quality code and having a submitter for it who may know nothing about it makes it difficult to work any of this low quality code into the mainl

I'd categorize a cypherpunk as a very specific form a cyberpunk, so to me that's normal journalistic form to use both terms at some point in an article.

My teachers only commented/deducted if I mixed spellings in a single essay. If a teacher can't teach someone who uses either variant they probably have a stark educational deficit themselves.

Spending this much on a server's CPUs has been a pretty normal thing in DC/server rooms for a very long time, the rise of X86 in servers is a similar cheapening like the rise of ARM. It actually meant a lot of redesigning of appli

We are seeing justice from the many ways. There aren't many people who appreciate waiting on justice in crimes that are ruining a lot to steal a little.

Why keep running an attack that didn't even work? Every second probably causes a loss of some bots up to a point..

Maybe I deceive myself when I think its too early to know if the Marshall plan through Glasnost was the intelligent half of an eternal cycle.

It doesn't really track that the original creation of .io being sordid means a political change won't have implications, (possibly even) modelled on and/or justified by the questionable history..

Unless I missed something this is a VPS in a cloud, so really its not about replacing hardware to get back up. There's certainly an interesting problem of scale and redundancy where I think you need 3+ half full racks to really be effi

Funny, I can imagine bash is a real improvement on ansible. I once started with bash, switched to bash in ansible and then to "good style" ansible and then to a nixops cluster. There wasn't really a good point between bash an

Most memory safety errors are from not being able to test things like whether you are really dropping references in all cases or whether your C++ additions are interacting with each other. C is not safe but it is safer than C++. Rust is not

There are developers that earn that much, and the probability goes up at MS, Mozilla, etc, but I think a lot of qualified experienced Compiler developers exist who are earning less than the 150k a year when you consider the global market a

Apparently the nature of markets is offensive when the description of them doesn't go along with pavlovian expectations? I've met a lot of people who couldn't find the job they wanted in the place they wanted anymore and join

On the plus side, adding profanity once it is scanned for sounds like another way to weed out some commercial use without explicitly weeding out some commercial use.. That could be handy to an already annoyed maintainer.

Fine, but then the US has spent a terrifying amount of my money on sports and I want it all back if the point of their sophisticated pro-social spending (which strangely has to include private ventures getting handouts) is actually to extra

Er no, not really (past results != future results).. This high pay has worked out because there are jobs to move people to because demand has so far been expanding. If we are sick of the new output then your job will be filled by someone wi

Grades are almost guaranteed at Harvard Undergrad. A grader who gives out any Bs or less for any properly submitted paper can expect an outraged Professor to make them stop before he has to deal with the backlash which may include a lawyer.

That's a problem, but I think the problem is checks and balances for actual repairs to the checks and balances that would restrict a role are prohibitely hard to make while privilege escalations enlarging a role are at best temporarily

Biden was never an entertainer like the other 2 demented old men (entrusted with WMDs) under discussion. If we send you to space you'll have to pass a fitness test.. Because we aren't stupid? But sure, anyone in the middle of a ps

Right, AI is really just what I use to replace google searches I would have used to find highly relevant examples 10 years back. We are coming out of a 5 year search winter.

A demented figurehead with other people behind him directing the show. It's as if acting was the perfect training for the worst idea for a position in a system of checks and balances.

Single core containers are also a terrible idea. Life got much less deadlocked as soon as there were 2+ processors everywhere. (Huh, people like hard OS design problems for marginal behavior? OSes had trouble adopting SMP but we also got to

AFAIK significant banks didn't really shut down over FATCA, some have paid fines or higher tax rates and most of them do the minimum for anyone who matches any of the criteria for persecuting a possible US person, within the limits of

Every zero sum game has some side effects people try to focus on.. When I look at the number of children who have been abused for the Olympics, I think there are better ways to have an international convention and to push a healthier level

Sure, the stock market is clearly grounded in a positive sum game of enabling more investment options. Things like whether to penalize day trading for its zero sum aspects or appreciate it for side effects are an argument in legislation&#x2

What is bad for society is zero sum games. They are profitable for individuals but take the same or more from elsewhere so they raise nothing. There are a few zero sum games where we think the side effects are good (i.e. in the pricing of s
