The wrong lessons were were learnt in 2008 after no individual suffered any negative consequences for their part in causing horrible losses for a lot of people.

> There is no reason these companies, even if massively overvalued, have to "pop."

This is a wild thing say without any qualification.

> This is a wild thing say without any qualification

It’s really not. Bubbles are notable because most elevated asset prices slowly go down. And they have common characteristics that force the reckoning. Usually debt. Sometimes operational leverage.

> i try to be fairly reasonable about the time im taking and no one has ever questioned it or pushed back

In other words, it is roughly the same way as regular PTO except "unused" PTO doesn't accumulate, and you won't get paid for any unused PTO at the end of your employment - which is the the whole point of "unlimited PTO"

> now same machine is 2.5x the price

2.5x?! I have a bunch of older Haswell servers I got for free that are rotting away in my garage. I had initially thought of stripping out the ECC DDR4, but now I'm wondering if I'll get takers on Marketplace...

Honestly, if someone can actually use them (as demonstrated by paying the price+shipping) then they would probably have a better home with that person.

I'm more worried about my `~/.aws` and `~/.ssh` folders. People who use IDE-based AI tooling with IDEs that support dev-containers have no excuse for not leveraging dev containers, both for preventing agents losing your data and defending against secrets-harvesting supply-chain attacks

Using containers as a security boundary is inexcusable.

It is excusable if all you care about is blocking sudo access while letting the ai use a pseudo sudo.

That entirely depends on one's threat-model. Also, containerization is 100x better than rawdogging.

> That entirely depends on one's threat-model

I think not, virtualization has such low overhead now that there's just no excuse. It's generally trivial to switch from containers to VMs.

Could you elaborate on this?

The cost-benefit ratio of using VMs over containers is very high. You trade negligible overhead for an actual security boundary.

Containers don't provide good isolation and tend to be trivial to break out of.

> What was Disney thinking?

"We continue to make a shit-load of money off toys and merchandizing"

This would be congruent with Damon's retelling of how a studio exec walked him through how the math of a traditional theatrical release wouldn't work out for the movie.

> Using raw uncompressed bitrate is a bit disingenuous

It is not disingenuous given the context. Gp was responding to ggp's hypothetical:

>> Is there a compelling reason encoding needs to be done locally?

> You will need to buy, at least, a bunch of decent 120mm fans to prevent this or invest in some water cooling

There's a cottage industry of 3D-printed fan-shrouds for data center GPUs - 120mm are often the sweet spot for quietness and practicality. The shoud smugly fits the GPUs intake, so it gets all the airflow from the attached fan(s), whose speed curves can be attached to GPU temperature.

Shoutout to the makers and hackers supplying those!

Turning it off would have solved the bureaucratic problem for flight crew. Sadly, the passengers (collectively) failed to accomplish this basic task.

> Turning it off would have solved the bureaucratic problem

The article says two Bluetooth radios weren’t turned off. Do we know if one of those was “the bomb?”

You can't really turn off most BLE devices with internal batteries, off means low power mode nowadays. Some of them are still discoverable on wireshark when they are 'off'.

It could've been in checked luggage and turned itself on from the movement. No way for the passengers to get to it. Unfortunately it didn't turn itself off (although if it did, and then later turned on again, that would've been even worse.)

The passenger may not have even known, I've certainly renamed friends' phones as a goof, although not to something that would get them in to trouble.
