Denvers original airport was built in the "middle of no where", for noise reasons. Continue on for 30 years and lots of housing built up around it. People start complaining about noise. City decides to move the airport. Moves it 30 miles away, in the middle of no where (now DIA). Yep, you guessed it. People start building close to the airport, and then complain about the noise. I fully expect it to move again in 15-20 years

I have a base docker container and a shell script that "customizes" each instance for where its running (making sure user id matches for permissions, etc). Runs as non root in container, has minimal privileges, and only access to the repo or dir where the shell script was called

You definitely let the ai shoot your legs off all on your own.

"That takes up so much space!"

Worked until reboot. And thats the start of my dive into IT

Had the original plan been simply "extend address space" instead of "extend address space and while we are at it revamp and rewrite every part of the whole scheme including assignment, discovery, and everything else we see wrong with ipv4"; we would be in a much better place.

Adding extra address bytes would of course require new changes across the internet, but that change would be easier to swallow compared to having to rip and replace large swaths of processes to make ipv6 work because of all of the other changes that came with ipv6.

Also, the stupid idea of turning addresses to hex as the default, and more specifically the dumb :: shortening methods really made it confusing for everyone and didnt help at all in the efforts.

It was able to turn me to an author of a number of scifi books that really piqued my interest. One of them it prefaced with "dont read tue summaries" which i thought strange, but i listend, and ultimately bought the book just from reading a single line summary of it.

Local ai is not ready, and if you think it is, prove me wrong with a detailed guide running commodity hardware with complete setup steps that can use a decently sized model.

I spent 2 weeks trying to get anything running - 8gb RX550XT, 12gb ram, 8core cpu. I even tried turboquant to lower memory utilization and still couldnt even get a 3B or 4B model loaded, and anything lower wont suit my needs (3/4B are even pushing it).

We waste a ton of energy on ineffeciencies in hardware and software today all because we managed to "just go faster".

Manufacturing isnt going anywhere, but it will increasingly take fewer and fewer people to operate and build many things.

UBJ would work in some cases where your knowledge could be (relatively) easily applied in other places, but we basically already have a partial implementation of UBJ, you can easily get employment assistance from almost any state in the US, but its also trying to do the same for 5+% of the human workforce at the same time. Sometimes it can be many weeks or even a few months to get something; what can a person already not making a lot do in that case? With UBI the stress is alleviated, and can help bolster the persons living situation when out of work.

As such, i decided to start a new project a month or so ago.. Ive been working to build a model car kit from scratch, and i mean, from scratch. CAD to injection mould to kit and instructions. Im still in the cad steps, but its been pretty enjoyable so far. I am currently designing a retro coupe, which is powered by reactor. I might make it flying style, where the wheels are plasma thrusters instead of wheels.
