Idea for a science fiction short story: dark matter interacts with normal matter only in specific conditions requiring advanced science, with extremely rare occurrences naturally.
Humanity, after migrating from biological carbon based substrate, finds ordinary matter not practical to live in. Dark matter has much better properties.
All humanity transfers to dark matter where it finds all the other "ascended" species historically hosted by our universe. Solves Fermi's paradox and keeps the "normal matter" nursery clean for new species to appear.
Yeah, and block as much as possible the possibility to include their cash cow (office) in open source: the desktop Microsoft Office apps are impossible to run under Linux without a VM, and the web versions are a PITA and lack many necessary features.
His idea would be cool if not for the lindy effect: each one of his "tests" has a somewhat low probability of extending his life by a few months / years.
However each of his tests, as they are new, also has a smaller probability of having ruin effect: killing him or leaving him disabled in the process. Multiplying the treatments increases significantly the downside risks (1 failure is enough) while the positive will not compound (you will need many of them to work to see a significant effect).
This is also a fear I have, I am answering it with building bigger things with AI: what I loose in expertise in the details, I gain in the pleasure of architecturing bigger things.
Down again apparently in Europe. Any news about why ?
They still kill a lot of people and, through their actions/inaction, let many others be killed.
No, but protecting x/xAI from bankruptcy by linking it to the most promising company in Musk's portfolio does. You just need a justification.
This is while they try to find a solution to earn money with it.
I discovered "secret level" on prime recently where there is an episode on UT2004 (with the original sound effects like "killing spree !!!" ). With this additional news, I now want to run it again...
Looking at the fact there are currently no active electricity generating fusion power plants, and we do not know which technology will "win", how likely is this a waste of money ? Or am I missing a point ?
Are the STL files available anywhere for printing ?
Really nice tutorial, and great experiment, however, at home, I would prefer to stay within a much narrower power budget like 5-10 watts max for the router. This one seems in the 40watts-60watts.
> 50 machines at hetzner
- install machines with ansible (using hetzner scripts for OS install)
- machines communicate over vswitch/vlans, external interfaces disabled whenever possible. Pay attention to the custom mtu trick.
- harden machines, unattended-upgrades mandatory on each machine
- ssh open with IP whitelists from iptables on gateways
- machines organized as k8s clusters, took ~1 year to have everything working cleanly
- everything deployed as k8s resources
- use keepalived for external IPs with floating IPs for ingress on 3 machines per cluster
Machines are managed as cattle, it takes <1h+ hetzner provisioning time to add as many machines as we need.
We have a lot of small start-ups, the successful ones go to the US to get more financing and less taxes.
That is more or less what we have in France, it comes with other issues... like really high taxes.
But we have many start-ups, which usually migrate to the US as soon as they grow big.
For the keyboard layout, use a mechanical keyboard program it through qmk, loose 1 month adapting to it, and voila, problem solved.
Works great for me as is. The fact that no android app is necessary is so great. The improvements I would see:
- have a qrcode when running the server instead of displaying the url, much more practical
- have a "relative cursor mode" to behave like a usual trackpad, where you move the cursor from its current position. I am not interested in seeing my display on the phone, just use it as a trackpad while looking at my display.
running the virus code in a container / vm and checking what gets modified
you could have done "free lossless image compression" to have Flic-(Flac)
Actually, a programmable keyboard is great for lefties, you can have a numpad on a layer on the left part of your keyboard. Ah, and move the WASD and gaming keys to the right of the keyboard without having to modify all the games each time you play.
to solve that, I expanded the space cadet to other layers
to do [] and {}
