So now a cryptopro tells us that bitcoin shouldn't replace the USD? Thats so fun because apparently everyone doing bitcoin does it for a different reason. Anyway do you believe that when the world goes down and you need your gold, you

I thought a few years back already that owning a bigger house will be cheaper than ever due to the progress of cheap renewable energy, cheaper and cheaper heat pump technology and batteries. Nice to see blog

I did made the point that AI/ml is helping us and the type of energy location and load is much easier to get green than lets say concrete. We need AI/ML for getting there faster and helping more people around us. Alone for weather

Your bank building has to be maintained and heated. Heating which is added to your use of the local bank. My perspective is not limited. Just because people live in a city center, doesn't mean that most people do. Open Google Maps and

Insulin is a bad example and a good one. A bad one because what happens in the USA is some super weird shit (and it only happened in the USA, thats why USA people drive to canada or mexico). Without insulin though, they wouldn't be ali

I. believe that watching mulitply movies is still a lot more co2 efficient than driving a car to a big independent room, which gets heated and than also shows a movie through a big projector than having a tv running and streaming it from th

Datacenters always run because there is always something to do. For everything else, there are already plenty of energy saving mechanism build into the CPUs, Mainboards, Disks etc. A Datacenter doesn't run on 100% Energy just because t

AI and ML will help a lot of people and already does. Alpha Fold / protein folding will help us with cancer. We will have better batterires thanks to ml material research. We will be able to calculate and optimize everything related to

Yes, start comparing energy spend on bitcoin mining and the missing features. You will see that bitcoin already consumes a lot more energy than our proof of stake system. What do you do when you want to exchange 1 bitcoin for 1 car and the

Yes. But what are you implying? Entertainment + ad garbage still is a lot more co2 efficient than printing flyers and sending those out.

Have you checked how much co2 a normal car drive creates vs. watching a movie online? We need to be realistic here. We know what modern entertainment looks like and its not realistic at all to just 'read books' and play board game

I actually listed them up directly after. For example alphafold: Protein folding. It is also now used in fusion reactor plasma control

The normal miners never said that. They just say this at conferences for simple greenwashing. The normal miner doesn't go to those bitcoin conferences, they buy asics, put them in some warehouses around the world and make money.

The wealth gap is widening while in parallel poorer people have better lives than ever. We house, heat and give access to knowledge to a lot more people than ever before. Cheap medical procedures through AI will help us all. The AI which wi

I disagree. Datacenters save a lot more energy than they make. Alone how much co2 is saved when i can do my banking online instead of having to drive to a bank is significant. The same with a ton of ohter daily things i do. Is video produci

But we do know that the Proof of Stake system we currently have, is a lot cheaper and more advanced than what Bitcoin does. Bitcoin doesn't solve any problem yet which is fundamental to our society and a fiat system like the trust issu

AI is not just LLMs. AlphaFold for example moved a critical goal post for everyone of us. bitcoin is only negative. It consumes terrawatts of energy for nothing.

AI solves gigantic issues and helps us with cancer, protein folding, potentially math and other studies, material science etc. Bitcoin consumes as much energy as a country and has basically done nothing besides moving money from one group o

I'm from germany. In germany you have the concept of specialization and you can choose different areas.

I have ADHD and i still believe that we as a society fail in teaching. I learned complex math concepts before the university like math i needed for 3d graphics without issues. If we as a society think its okay to have such an entry barrier,

Great! I failed in university at math. Why? Because the tutors had not the time to help me. My level of math was not the same as the other students as i was not in the math part of a gymnasium. I struggled and wasted a lot of time and energ

Consiousness is a emerging feature of our brains complexity. The way this dude throws around quantum and co is just esotherical.

How is it compared to lsd or ketamine? Is it like suddenly an lsd trip and than suddenly out again?

by k8sagic 2y ago
ketamine you get in germany for $50 which is enough for 4-8 hours. 'not that exclusive' for someone who is an addict and wants to do it regularly for sure. For someone to just try it out once but being poor (really poor), borderli

I'm happy to discuss this topic and to clarify it. For me the 'package manager' aspects are more than the templating and having a zip file. For me it is more what apt etc. do So using helm and its remote repositories, using t

So you combine helm with kustomize patching? that just solves a subset of issues helm and kustomize have right now.

I'm running a 500 node cluster, 3 private ones and 5 in an opensource context. I see this primarily from a business/ops perspective and i do not install helm charts manually through the cli besides for testing. We provide kubeapps

by k8sagic 2y ago
I think you are marketing this thing wrong. This has very little to do with helm. For me helm is primarily not a package manager, its a templating language and a way of configuring and installing it to a k8s cluster happens through kubeapps
