New comment by redm in "U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Bay Model"

redm — Thu, 04 Jun 2026 11:28:05 +0000

These are the kinds of interesting engineering challenges that were solved with human ingenuity and grit; I wish we were talking more about them to our youth to inspire imagination about what's possible.

New comment by redm in "Google’s AI is being manipulated. The search giant is quietly fighting back"

redm — Wed, 20 May 2026 15:56:08 +0000

Manipulation and misinformation on Wikipedia have been happening for many years (based on my personal experience trying to correct facts). I'm not referencing politics per se, though political views certainly impact Wikipedia since source material, these days, often has a political bias. I'm talking about business facts that get manipulated for that business's benefits.

How does that saying go? If you can't identify the mark in the room, you're the mark. Diligence and a good amount of skepticism serve you well before AI, and certainly post-AI.

New comment by redm in "Data centers are transitioning from AC to DC"

redm — Wed, 25 Mar 2026 22:22:19 +0000

I guess we've come full circle. It was just 20 years ago that my datacenters gutted DC in favor of AC.

This is pretty cool!

What's holding me back from AI repos and agents isn't running it locally though. Its the lack of granular control. I'm not even sure what I want. I certainly don't want to approve every request, but the idea of large amounts of personal data being accessible, unchecked, to an AI is concerning.

I think perhaps an agent that focuses just on security, that learns about your personal preferences, is what might be needed.

I agree with the sentiment of this article.

Sadly, I'm still disagreeing while crypto kiddies are driving past me in lambo's. If its the future of money, yes we'll get there eventually, but like every technology shift, there's a lot of money to be made in the transition, not after. *

* I sold all crypto a few years ago and I'm a happier person :D

The question I keep coming back to regarding the recent debate around age verification is "Why now?"

I'm 47, and I started using the internet in my early teens through BBS gateways. I've seen every age of the Internet, and there's always been widely available pornographic materials. Why all of a sudden is this a crisis?

Perhaps I'm missing something?

New comment by redm in "Cloudflare was down"

redm — Fri, 05 Dec 2025 09:23:38 +0000

SLA’s usually just give you a small credit for the exact period of the incident, which is arymetric to the impact. We always have to negotiate for termination rights for failing to meet SLA standards but, in reality, we never exercise them.

Reality is that in an incident, everyone is focused on fixing issue, not updating status pages; automated checks fail or have false positives often too. :/
