They are using the Hashicorp Vault implementation, and it's been around for years. I think we can safely say they know what they are doing.

Until you get sued by JK Rowling. Unlikely? sure, but I wanted to decouple for other reasons. That's why i went with PassCrux for mine. Can't argue that it's too close, since "crux" is just latin for cross, as in &q

That's why you have a public-ish recovery guide for all the other steps.

You should add a feature where you can select the shares/threshold, with 3/5 being the default. edit: d'oh! you do, I didn't get that far into using it yet cause I was on mobile.

Glad to see this idea getting traction! Had the same idea years ago (same hashicorp lib too) but lost motivation to polish it to the point I felt confident enough to Show HN. https://github.com/xkortex/passcrux But giv

Hooo boy where do I begin? Dependency deadlocks are the big one - you try to share resource attributes (eg ARN) from one stack to another. You remove the consumer and go to deploy again. The producer sees no more dependency so it prunes the

lol WHAT? AI datacenters are bottlenecked by power, bandwidth, cooling, and maintenance. Ok sure maybe the Sun provides ample power, but if you are in LEO, you still have to deal with Earth's shadow, which means batteries, which means

Satellites can adjust attitude so that the panels are always normal to the incident rays for maximum energy capture. And no weather/dust. You also don't usually use the same exact kind of panels as terrestrial solar farms. Since y

The simplest is drop the longest latency probe, and add a new one in the proximity of the fastest.

I wonder if you could optimize for reducing the total probe count (at the expense of possibly longer total time, though it may be faster in some cases) by using some sort of "gradient descent". Start by doing the multi-continent p

How about: maybe some things lie outside of the purview of empiricism and materialism, the belief in which does not radically impact one's behavior so long as they have a decent moral compass otherwise, can be taken on faith, and &quot

I can relate. It's definitely possible, but you have to really want it, and it takes a lot of work. You need cybernetics (as in the feedback loop, the habit that monitors the process of adding habits). Meditate and/or journal. T

I think we are closer than most folks would like to admit. in my wild guess opinion: - 2027: 10% - 2030s: 50% - 2040: >90% - 3000: 100% Assuming we don't see an existential event before then, i think it's inevitable, and soon.

It does objectively improve productivity though, beyond offsetting withdrawal. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S014976341...

That's literally AI though. AI has been around formally since 1956. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dartmouth_workshop AI != AGI != neural networks != LLMs But Tao did mention ChatGPT so i believe LLMs were involved

Going by the graph in the article, that's still ~13% of homes owned by investors with >5 properties. And that's total of what is currently held, it speaks nothing of liquidity. That number likely includes investors who have had

Yes. Sugar (and all of its downstream phenomena - diabetes, insulin resistance, the ease in which sugar adds calories without satiation signals) is well established to contribute to CVD. Long-chain (animal based) sat fat and trans fat is al

I think you have hit the nail on the head why more police funding, more surveillance tech, more dystopian BS that looks more like PreCrime every single day, is only going to get us so far. I'm sure there are exceptions, but I think mos

> the costs of implementing a zero-crime world are far greater than the crime. Exactly, I like this. Thanks for helping me rephrase.

I'm probably not doing a great job of getting my point across, and most of that is on me. Let me try to clarify. Every aspect of cybernetics (whether it be engineering, society/politics, biology) involves deliberate tradeoffs. In

Decreasingly so. Particularly if I am going to anything charged (e.g. political rallies). Which is a shame, they are very useful tools and it's a very real chilling effect.

I get it, I used to drive a GTI. I don't mind just loud exhaust by itself, as long as they are tuned well. It's the pops/crackling/backfires that set off all the neighborhood dogs and sound like they split the air that

So we have stats, that's the closest we have to objective, but I guess we can't trust those. You say your anecdote contradicts "the stats", and I genuinely believe you. Sincerely, what's the alternative? Vibes? We g
