Can we just emulate the rules that the torrenting subreddits use? They still exist after years.

Why?

This is excellent advice and makes me feel less crazy…

The brain science and neurology advancements that would be required to get to such a point would be absolute mind-blowing breakthroughs in medical science and would completely change the world as we know it. The mental/personality disorders we could now understand and solve would make me so hopeful for humanity and the upbringing of welfare for everyone. This would without question be a good thing.

Neuralink is an excellent advancement for brain science and it is greatly going to help disabled people and those with little function left over their bodies. It’s okay to celebrate this technology while also hating musk.

Like SpaceX, they’ve both been excellent ventures that he so far hasn’t ruined (probably thanks to the people he delegates to). Just because it’s fashionable to hate him for how he’s absolutely fucked over Twitter (which i’ll remind everyone we’ve always hated and agreed is bad, use Mastodon instead) doesn’t mean his other companies largely spearheaded by others, and their results, are also bad.

That’s not even to mention that the kind of dystopian technology people are imagining isn’t anywhere close to what the Neuralink device is actually capable of. What everyones fearmongering over is still just science fiction. It’s just barely able to interpret brain signals, it’s not as powerful as everyone makes it out to be.

2nd edit: forgot what instance I’m on, this comment probably ain’t going to do well lol

AWS is expensive and confusingly structured, but I’ve been impressed with the ECS stuff. The UI for all of it is also way overcomplicated and stupid, but once you have it working it works.

That’s what happens when Reddit unilaterally bans everyone but those with milquetoast opinions. Those people have to find somewhere else to go. It’ll change over time as people migrate.

We really should have a method of banning remote individual users from your own instance. I’m as anti tankie as they come, but defederating isn’t the answer. It’s just continually shrinking and sharding the fediverse in a way that will hinder our growth.

Off the top of my head we use AWS ECS which provides a rolling upgrade method. Push up the new container into ECR (from github actions after they pass tests) run the upgrade command, and new containers will start booting. Once they pass their health checks the load balancer starts serving traffic to them. Once they’re live, the old containers are removed.

We also use a blue/green deployment method so we don’t have to worry about breaking the production database with database changes.

Not too much, just that it would be incredibly tempting of an option for a millionaire. Anonymously destroy your competition by paying some dark web site in Monero? Sure why not?

Haters. Groups paid by Steve Huffman. Script kiddies. Any rich trust fund pissant with a couple hundo to spend on the dark web.

I am not a full network engineer so take my opinion with a grain of salt. From what I understand, NAT with IPv4 works really really well to mitigate IPv4 address exhaustion. Then there’s an issue with the amount of extra processing switches and routers need to do IPv6, we’re going from 32 bits to 128 bits which is a huge increase and for switches and routers that are handling packets as fast as technically possible with a low amount of resources typically, that’s a not insignificant hurdle.

It’s just easier to do IPv4 in every way, plus that’s what the world’s been using and is used to.

I’ve talked to several network engineers over the years about IPv6, engineers that work as hands on with actual production infrastructure as you can get. And they all said that IPv6 would likely never be fully adopted.

That single tool is still propped up by that collective decade of knowledge. ChatGPT would be nothing without sites like stackoverflow

I wish he had written why he’s so anti-container/docker. That’s a pretty unusual stance I haven’t been exposed to yet.

Where does this guy expect people to find his website? Because there’s only going to be a small amount of nerds who still use RSS feeds. Does he recommend a different search engine?
