User authentication is not a function of DNS. You are requiring an entirely new protocol to be designed. And the nobody will use it.

For python, certifi is still a thing and it still has it's own cert bundle.

It's mostly historical. They used to suck in the past, but the implementations remain. Nowadays you are better off configuring to use OS certificates if possible.

If you don't understand it, high chance LLM will leave with an open firewall.
The learning curve being a bit rough is massive understatement. It's not meant for not computer savy people.

I have hap ax3. They cleaned up their defaults. No extra license costs.
One issue I had was that I was affected (and many others) by wifi bug in firmware which made connections drop randomly. Took them half a year to resolve it. Wouldn't recommend Mikrotik as access point. Otherwise it's good.

Most old houses are not ducted and retrofiting them is very expensive, capital repair.
Mini-splits are noisy and have major problems getting heat distributed over a whole house.

What are the benefits to actual people? What you are gonna replace lost jobs with? All electronics with ram or storage is now way more expensive due to AI gobling up everything. And then there are local power grid impact concerns.
Why would you be suprised there is opposition?

No, I'm annoyed that they submit their sloppy code to me as some value and then I have to deal with it. Happened in our org.
You are a programmer yourself, that is different. You can review AI output, understand and explain it. I won't get a response from you "I don't know, AI said so".

The amount of non-determinism in compiler and LLM output is so vast that even comparing them is silly.
Tests are not a one time thing. They need to be maintained, and if you use same LLM to do it, it will happily delete failing ones, so better use a seaparate agent, and be prepared for the bill.

Ventilating at night doesn't work at all when nights are hot. And now it happens oftenly, not sometimes. That is a bigger problem than hot days.
Also, all the activity you do inside your insulated home also increases temperature. Human body itself is a small space heater. At some point, you gotta get that energy out somehow, and if nights are hot, there is no way to do that except via a heat pump.

Sure. But try it on a project on non-trivial size and then tell us the cost of it. LLMS are billed per token.
