  • Slow and requires additional tooling to run normally. Just not a lot of development on the core pieces tbh. Wasm support for example could make deployments way simpler (implement an ipfs proxy in any browser or server that supports wasm) but the ticket for that kind of died off. There is a typescript implementation, helia, that I haven't checked out yet.

    We are honestly kind of in a decentralization winter again, with ActivityPub being one of the few survivors gaining traction from what it seems. OpenSource luckily doesn't just up and die like that, so I still have hope for some next spring.

  • Makes sense, I bet there is better product fit for this in future but its cool to see first adoptions.

    Sterilizing that would be a bitch, was designed for level ofreliablety I would be comfortable with for surgery, and as with all medical equipment it should be bought with right to repair in mind (not the current practice and its an active problem).

  • Why is Linux unique in this? Windows, Mac, Solaris, and BSD all don't follow that nomenclature.

    Also get why the FSF nags a bit, many in industry would be very happy to remove the FSF all together and focus on maximizing software development for corporations instead of maximising freedom for users.

  • I'm not going to lie I thought this was a rare moment of police org stating that. It clearly is. It would be like them saying locked houses impead investigation and that they only want locks for car, houses, whatever to support a master key the police own.

    It shows a clear lack of understanding of just how insecure that makes something and just how much trust in state would be needed for it to be even conscionable.

  • IPFS I'm really glad things like nerdctl and guix support it, but I wish more things too advantage of the p2p filesystem.

    Petals.Dev and hivemind ml P2P AI inference and training seem like the only true viable options to make foundational models that are owned soley by authoritarian government s and megacorps.

    Matrix for federated general real time communication. (Not justs chat, video, images, but just data, with third room being on the cooler demos for what is possible)

    Activity Pub for asynchronous communication between servers. The socialmedia aspect is obviously the focus and the most mature, but I'm also excited for things like Forgejo (Codeberg.org) and Gitlab's support.

    I am also excited for QUIC for increased privacy of metadata and reduction of network trips.

  • For sure, if you need paid support (which if you aren't a tech giant, a fledgling startup, or a system with no need for uptime metrics, you probally do) the you have:

    • SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (aka SLES and only still Libre option in this category unfortunately)
    • Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)
    • Ubuntu are

    if don't need paid support then Debian, OpenSuse, Rocky, or Fedora are all good picks.

  • I always saw architects roles in modern development being the person trying to find synergies between different teams andcoordinateing them working with each other.

    Like if some team makes a sick project for managing streams of data streams the architect should be promoting it for other teams to leverage.

  • RancherDesktop if you want a dead simple way to spin up a k3s cluster with a GUI. All of the kubernetes tooling works on too. Works on Linux, Windows, and Mac (Intel and Apple SI).

    Rancher.academy had, at one point, been a really good resource, but I honestly just haven't watched tutorial in a while for k3s/rke2 so I would be lying if I said I knew one.

  • I mean even native american nations within the US have cultural differences.

    I wish I had a metric to go by, like number of shared common past times, language, legal structures, life goals, etc.

    Like China Town vs a minnonite community vs the bayou vs rual Midwest vs New York vs Atlanta vs Islanders vs Indians on the Res vs Inuits vs Cuban Americans vs Mexican Americans is just a awesome variety to me. I've had the pleasure working with people in all those places and it really destroys the notion of "common sense" because depending how you are raised it really changes what you think is common.

    You do have the melting pot effect multiplied by living in the era of mass communication and rapid transport too. So one person maybe surprised that you having handled a rattle snake or wrestled a gator or shot a machine gun or gone surfing, but you can talk about what just happened on game of thrones or the news.

  • For the first I think not being trained and having the knowledge of surgery is categorically different, so I don't think that critiques holds up.

    For your last point i think the rationalzation would be: "Punishing people for bad behavior is something that if everyone did would be good."

    Your second point holds more water and is the standard critique (and my personal stance) on it though. My only critique against it use is that I think too often people think they and their circumstances to exceptional and they more clever then they are.

  • I do want to stipulate, that the US is full of different cultures. I don't want to make it seem like we don't have tons of shared culture here, but I feel its a disservice to ignore how many different cultures make the US
