    That's all nice on a theoretical but such ideas quickly fall flat in a world where corporations are owned by rich people and create pollution often whole countries are even unable …

    Well, this is just silly. "We can all agree: the incentives are bad." Seriously?! If I kill someone, or behave like an asshole, everyone will hate me, so I've got an incentive not …

    They for that reason also were very very early in the Xen game both host and guest. Back when it was essentially a research project, why before hardware virtualization was even on …

    I will focus on the things that people rarely point out. Btw. to be clear, I largely use Linux personally and professionally. So no evangelism here. First of all: The BSDs are ALL …

    There is Consent-O-Matic. Also I wanna know when websites don't give a shit about my privacy and therefor have to show a cookie banner. While theoretically not consenting should me…

    No, please don't! It's great. The current law forces people that don't give a shit about user privacy to have a banner (or any other way of asking for consent first) while giving e…

    It's okay. They are market leaders. And we use their services cause we can trust that they know what they are doing.

    "doing a lot of work" and "doing a lot of the heavy-lifting" are and have been somewhat common on reddit, etc. I guess it's a great source for LLMs for weighting, because the weigh…

    I get that. That's not my criticism. My criticism is that you can do say that about many things. With that argument you can essentially encompass everything, which is cool in a way…

    Fair enough. Isn't that another topic more tied to WASM compare to what initially claimed to be a "System Interface" and not a language interface or a browser interface?

    Even if something lasts due to pure inertia it lasts. And something that lasts is pretty nice if you want a standard to last, or be implemented. The standard usually isn't the thin…

    I think there is a difference between "just copying" and "building upon understood systems and standards". Also to be fair "just copying" works really really well, especially for s…

    I am curious about how many of these cases are self-diagnosis and how many of them are wrong self-diagnosis. Highly subjective (which is why I am curious), but I know zero people i…

    Do you have no intention of answering skydhash's initial question? Do you have any examples of what you actually learned?
