Re:If AI replaces workers, should it also pay taxes? on Monday December 15, 2025 @09:16AM (#46274821)
In German, this concept is called "Maschinensteuer" (machine tax) or "Wertschöpfungsabgabe" (value-added levy). Interestingly, there's no English version of this Wikipedia article: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wertsch%C3%B6pfungsabgabe
In the blog post the EFS is mounted by the EC2 instances from the start but i expected to be dynamic depending on the scheduled tasks on the instance. I dont want to couple EFS volumes which might be used by the containers if they might get scheduled on an instance. I would like to have a general purpose cluster and let the scheduler instrument the EC2 instance to mount an EFS volume if its needed by a scheduled task dynamically.
Thanks!
Can EFS be used as a volume for ECS tasks?

I described the way it is currently done on mobile devices but i was thinking about a way to even cut that context switch by letting an app react to an email rather than handling the link scheme.

Any reasons why this cant be done using push messages?

Another way could be to send an intent to the right app using some special email header (X-App-Scheme) by the mail app.

The current email login flows force the user to open the mail app and to click the link inside the mail (which then normally opens the app using a registered scheme).

Combined with dns SRV lookups it could be a nice alternative to connectable [0].

Interesting approach. Could be a use case for the ByteBuddy library at http://bytebuddy.net

Looks like an interesting service for managing typical application content like mail templates. A free tier would be great to try it on a project. Does anybody know similar services or open source projects that are mainly a CMS with an API combined with a good end-user editor? Git based would be a plus.
