This sounds a lot like every framework, 20 years ago you could have written that about rails.

Which IMO makes sense because if code isn’t solving anything interesting then you can dynamically generate it relatively easily, and it’s easy to get demos up and running, but neither can help you solve interesting problems.

Which isn’t to say it won’t have a major impact on software for decades, especially low-effort apps.

I sometimes wonder if Qmail had had a clear license, if Gmail would have destroyed the self-hosted mail ecosystem so thoroughly.

Sounds like stuff Stalman wrote about 45 years ago, are windows users really that far behind?

This has been true for a long time, CPU sockets don’t last long enough to make upgrades worth it, unless you are constantly upgrading. Whenever i’ve built a “futureproof” desktop with a mid-high end GPU, by the time I hit performance problems I needed a new motherboard to fit the new CPU anyway. Only really upgradable components are storage and ram, but you can do that in your laptop too.

The main advantage of Desktops is still that you get much more performance for your money and can decide where it goes if you build it yourself.

SpaceX isn’t public so 9-5s will just buy TSLA instead.

Also thanks too Moore’s “Law”, pretty much anything launched will have 1/2 the processing power of something on the ground of equivalent size every 2 years.

Part of the success of cloud hosting is that thanks to Moore’s law companies were hesitant to buy hardware only to have it quickly become outdated*.

*cloud servers are actually pretty expensive so it really didn’t work out like this, but by the time that was obvious, the advantage of cloud was you had support for aaS Software built in (e.g Database, load balancing, caching, etc), and downstream of that is the death of open source vendors being able to get by selling support, but I’m sure that won’t have any negative effects 🙄.

Not a space expert but in v1.5 isn’t the center of mass being unaligned with the center of drag going to cause issues over time?

Lol, either these won’t be able to cool themselves or they will pump out heat straight into the upper atmosphere, which seems like a bad idea (I honestly don’t know enough but I suspect we simply don’t have the data to know what long term negative effects it will have)

Also just like Starlink this is a really dumb way to solve any problem other than how to inflate SpaceX valuations.

Now the lie that Starlink is resistant to censorship has been exposed twice (Ukraine & Iran), this is just the test Elon Grift.

Good

You can just admit you don’t understand the joke or security.

It’s a joke because AI tells people to kill themselves, so presumably an AI talking to businesses will talk them into shutting themselves down.

And as Mamdani is a socialist, he presumably wants private businesses to shutdown (and be replaced by cooperatives)

I’m in, anything with less Tankies and less channers is good.

What’s the best instance to use, I assume I can keep my current user and just view posts via piefed.social

I dunno I’m in favor of telling businesses to shut themselves down.

Well except the boats fortress Europa pushes back into the sea but we don’t talk about them

Lol

I’m no fan of Tankies or the CCP, but I’m really not seeing any more pro-china propaganda than you see elsewhere, mostly excitement as a result of their green tech stuff or HSR (while ignoring why China has a need for HSR)

I am seeing a surprising amount of anti-china paranoia from the UK press right now that frankly seems like it’s engineered by the US given its timing. Like articles about diplomats using burner phones as if that isn’t standard (for all countries).

People should understand the limits of E2E encryption.

I’d rather be unhinged than wrong.

No encryption is largely based on encryption algorithms, security is much broader than that.

It’s a lot easier to ship 1 app with a backdoor than reconstruct messages by scanning memory.

Sure but it by necessity sends some encrypted data to the server, Wireshark isn’t going to tell you if that’s just your message or your message and additional information.
