Docker isn’t, but I was under the impression that hyperscalars tended to put all their containers in lightweight VMs or use something like kata containers anyways for security purposes

As much as I wish your estimates were true, you have no numbers to back you up. They seem wildly optimistic.

Fedora is great but installing nvidia drivers is just enough of a hassle for most people to skip over it and choose a derivative like Bazzite

Simon Clark had a pretty good nuanced video on recycling and goes over plastics recycling in the latter parts of the video https://youtu.be/iOtrvBdRx8I

TL;DW Consider the environmental impact of systems over materials, most plastic doesn’t get recycled but some types of plastic are highly recyclable, existing plastic is undervalued, reduce > reuse > recycle.

Books are not immune to being written by LLMs spewing nonsense, lies, and hallucinations, which will only make more traditional issue of author/publisher biases worse. The asymmetry between how long it takes to create misinformation and how long it takes to verify it has never been this bad.

Media literacy will be very important going forward for new informational material and there will be increasing demand for pre-LLM materials.

What do you even do at a gym?

Jump

Grappling7155 @lemmy.ca 12mo ago

A lot of exercises you can do in the gym you can also do at home with a pair of dumbbells or even just your body weight.

The benefits of the gym for me is having an air conditioned environment, with machines that can guide my exercises and help enforce proper form, a good space to meetup with personal trainers, opportunities for group classes, and somewhere where there’s people around in case anything goes wrong in one of my exercises.

Not all gyms are the same too. There are climbing gyms, kickboxing gyms, mma gyms, gyms with pools, gyms with basketball and volleyball courts, gyms with tennis, squash, and badminton courts, etc. A lot of those you can’t do from home.

Debt and ledgers.

Anthropologist David Graeber made a compelling case that this was the system in many different societies and places before cash. There’s nothing stopping us from doing it again. His book talks extensively about how each society handled repayment, the role of violence, interest, social hierarchies, etc.

For some reason it’s become commonplace to think that barter is what preceded and/or would replace cash if we ever lost cash.

Anthropologist David Graeber has written a more compelling account of history with examples in a variety of societies showing that debt and ledgers are what came before cash and I’m thinking a system based off of them would probably be strong contender for a future without cash.

Unless this thing runs on fossil fuels, I don’t think it’s really going to have a big impact on climate change.

I guess there’s an argument that this is taking away engineering hours from projects that might have more practical uses in addressing climate change but I’d counter that sometimes engineers need a break from their usual work to avoid burning out from tedious incremental tasks and rigid processes. A bit of time and space for experimentation can be helpful, reinvigorating, and can lead to future discoveries and inventions if done right.
