I can draw some parallels between that and a healthy SRE culture. Except for the casualties, of course. Wondering if the first SREs who created the guidelines had aviation industry…

Sorry to say this, but HN is a problem as well. I’m looking for that 1% of the posts that interest me, and when I find them it’s fantastic, since it’s info I would not be able to f…

Based on the record in video game sales, I suspect that a lot of kids took the opportunity to improve certain skills during this period. I play a bit, and noticed that even old mul…

This is karma for all the pain caused to independent artists by copyright censorship “AI”.

Makes sense now, thanks.

You can add client side decorations to the list. It feels wrong because it is.

Is there a pdf available or just the abstract?

Right, there are plenty of such examples from physics. I was wondering if biology is the same. But it actually sounds worse. I think computer science is doing much better nowadays.…

Right, maybe “conservative” was not the best choice of word as it has many meanings. I was thinking about “cautious”, not “traditionalist”. Sorry for the confusion, I’m not a nativ…

Personally, I think it’s best if scientists lean towards the conservative/skepticism side, to filter out scams or bad science. But there should be a balance between that and allowi…

I’m not familiar with tor, but isn’t it possible to run it on a pi and route traffic through it? This way nothing would leak. Are there any disadvantages of that?

We’re talking about corporations of the size of small cities. There are going to be some amazing people in there, but some that you don’t like as well. Both groups will stand out. …

Agreed. That’s like pointing out the name of the pilot after a plane crash caused by a hardware malfunction.

This sounds great, thanks for clarifying! Also, thanks for Let’s Encrypt. I didn’t make the connection between the two names. This initiative looks much better to me now. Is rust t…

Thank you for your reply. If I understand correctly, this is an initiative that might have multiple sponsors, so it makes sense to have a central entity organizing it, and followin…

Great, another company that is dictating what software I am running on the computer I own. I’ve never mined Ethereum, but this really upsets me.
