<p>You state that like decades and billions is a long time.<p>You have 10000 people who need to do this trip every hour, how will you manage that with this? It can’t scale.<p>In the end normal people will be stuck without proper transport, while a tiny majority will fly around in comfort.</p>

<p>This so inefficient it’s painful to watch. It’s about 14 miles to go from jfk to manhattan. A train could do this in 20 minutes or so. A train could ship thousands of people in one go, supports millions of ordinary people in their daily lives, and doesn’t cause excessive noise pollution at street level (not to mention the climate, safety, and infrastructure benefits)<p>In London a new train line was built deep underground from Heathrow all the way through central London and out the other side. It stops all the way, travels further (19 miles) and still only takes 25 minutes, so don’t pretend it can’t be done.<p>Instead of supporting people we solve problems for the 0.001% who will give us a quick buck, while we pretend we’ll one day be rich enough to ride these things</p>

<p>You should ask claude code to write a bash script that does this for you. Then run that as a Cronjob every night. You might not need any inference at all to create the flash cards so it would be free.</p>

<p>Doesn’t really work though - and given athletes are on the edge of performance there’s probably more people that fall in between than you might expect<p>From the Wikipedia article:<p>While the presence or absence of SRY has generally determined whether or not testis development occurs, it has been suggested that there are other factors that affect the functionality of SRY.[25] Therefore, there are individuals who have the SRY gene, but still develop as females, either because the gene itself is defective or mutated, or because one of the contributing factors is defective.[26] This can happen in individuals exhibiting a XY, XXY, or XX SRY-positive[27] karyotype[better source needed]
Additionally, other sex determining systems that rely on SRY beyond XY are the processes that come after SRY is present or absent in the development of an embryo. In a normal system, if SRY is present for XY, SRY will activate the medulla to develop gonads into testes. Testosterone will then be produced and initiate the development of other male sexual characteristics. Comparably, if SRY is not present for XX, there will be a lack of the SRY based on no Y chromosome. The lack of SRY will allow the cortex of embryonic gonads to develop into ovaries, which will then produce estrogen, and lead to the development of other female sexual characteristics.[28]</p>

<p>It can’t be fully secure but you can use a domain or path with a uuid or similar such that no one could guess your dns endpoint, over dot or doh. In theory someone might log your dns query then replay it against your dns server though.<p>You could also add whitelisting on your dns server to known IPs, or at least ranges to limit exposure, add rate limiting / detection of patterns you wouldn’t exhibit etc.<p>You could rotate your dns endpoint address every x minutes on some known algorithm implemented client and server side.<p>But in the end it’s mostly security through obscurity, unless you go via your own tailnet or similar</p>

<p>Why are SaaS margins apparently dropping? The cost of producing saas is going down, no one is investing in new saas companies, the build your own saas will crumble as described in this article, meanwhile corporate IT departments will be decimated to pay for ballooning AI costs leaving saas as the only option to run companies.<p>Are any saas companies actually reducing their prices?</p>
