This is episode 3 of a four part series about our ability to predict the future based on the past, using letters written in 1959 as a way to unearth what specifically makes this so hard.
Outside these four episodes, the program itself discusses many different aspects of life and society, it explores preconceived ideas and dogs into journalistic myths and misconceptions.
Highly recommended!
Start your own “musings” community and have as much fun as you like.
Yeah, I belatedly realised that.
Apparently Debian ranks lower than the distros that are based on it.
What ranking are you using to arrive at this conclusion?
Pretty sure that you can use it with a CloudFlare custom error page.
So … a company that despite decades of effort, can’t make a competitive web browser with all the help in the world, is now going to distract itself with even more non-essential rubbish with absolutely zero chance of success … can’t wait to hear what the excuse is going to be when this CEO leaves to pursue other opportunities.
Meanwhile the Assumed Intelligence Ponzi scheme will have collapsed, taking with it a significant portion of the economy, let alone the ICT industry.
This timeline needs some tweaking…
Build a website on your preferred platform, you’re already using WP.
Create a static version of it. There’s plugins for exactly that purpose.
Put the static files on a web host, I use s3, but you can use whichever you prefer.
When you update the site on WP, run the static extraction again and update your actual site.
Why do you see this as USA only?
Because the announcement doesn’t use UTC to announce the event and there’s absolutely no chance that anyone outside the US knows when some random timezone is, or if daylight savings is active in that timezone or not at the time of the event.
The announcement also tells me that the organisation is run out of the USA, not a place universally known for its inclusivity or global consideration. Reinforced by a text only image with no alt text.
I think a tech workers coalition is an interesting and potentially useful idea, but the announcement doesn’t even contain a URL to the organisation.
Which leads to my conclusion, a USA only affair.
I’d be delighted to be wrong, but that’s what the announcement conveyed to me.
So … USA tech workers only?
This is the job for the OS.
You can run most Linux systems with stupid amounts of swap and the only thing you’ll notice is that stuff starts slowing down.
In my experience, only in extremely rare cases are you smarter than the OS, and in 25+ years of using Linux daily I’ve seen it exactly once, where oomkiller killed running mysqld processes, which would have been fine if the developer had used transactions. Suffice to say, they did not.
I used a 1 minute cron job to reprioritize the process, problem “solved” … for a system that hadn’t been updated for 12 years but was still live while we documented what it was doing and what was required to upgrade it.
Linux aggressively caches things.
4 GB of RAM is not running out of memory.
If you start using swap, you’re running into a situation where you might run out of memory.
If oomkiller starts killing processes, then you’re running out of memory.
No, “the due and payable” kind.
I suspect that the house of cards will come tumbling down as soon as one of the companies in this massive Ponzi scheme fails to pay their bill.
Is Utah nominating itself for the Darwin Awards?
