Agencies operate untold nodes.

No.

Recommend just running it on a VM in proxmox or similar

I'm a big fan of the ESOP model, particularly in engineering firms. It's hard to find a better way to motivate younger employees to put in those hours.

So what I do in my free time, but getting paid for it?? Sign me up.

I own the car and pay taxes that are partially used to build/maintain highway infrastructure.

I do not own the train. I guess it's true that my taxes were partially used to subsidize the tracks without my consent, though.

Piracy is "wrong" in the context of the social contract we're taught from birth: treat others nice and they'll treat us nice. It's the underpinning of our success as the human species.

Corporations are not humans and do not honor the social contract.

Yep, this is exactly what I do. It's nice to be able to use Messages from my desktop, plus it fulfills an edge case of 2-way backup with Synology Drive and iCloud for me

Super slick!

What are some common applications for this, though? I can't think of a reason I'd want to access this versus, say, a remote vm?

Why haven't plugins become more of a "thing"?

Not really sure how this is different than a meter at the POI at every substation?

Very cool!

I remember signing up to do that in college to make extra money and them not accepting me. Bah!

What kind of telemetry (protocol, topology, etc) is used here? I'm in utilities, so am used to seeing modbus, DNP, etc, but also some OPC-UA nowdays.

I like the idea of a 3d generated scene we can explore with VR

I hate to say this, but many recruiters who contact me seem to reside and work from India. I get all kinds of recruiter attention, including unsolicited emails, calls, and texts, but most of them seem to be looking for a relationship where I do the work, and they subcontract with a subcontractor who's subcontracting for another contract for a major firm.

It's basically spam at this point. How can we "stand out" without getting bombarded with low-quality "proposals"?

I would have presented it as a question versus a statement, in that case.

Are you saying that this was a form of Socratic questioning- intentionally presenting an incorrect statement in order to obtain the correction?

I'm a controls/automation engineer, not a SWE, and the first function is infinitely easier to understand for me. It simply says what it's doing, in order of operation, in easy to read code.

I don't know, does that mean it's declarative? I don't understand how that's supposed to be more difficult than stepping through loops.

The only person who loses in that scenario is the person boycotting.

The artist will still have fans, the label will still get paid, but you will miss out on the art.

I would argue the only option is to acquire and store the music using technology not officially supported by the industry (stream downloaders, then torrents, etc)

Definitely crazy any way you look at it; something was observing you, whether man or otherwise.

I personally could buy the "autonomous alien probe sent 10,000 years ago" narrative, but just seems like we'd have more concrete, widely distributed evidence by now.

What year? Fits the military drone narrative.

How are you measuring which group is bigger?

All is not fair in love and war. See: Geneva Conventions.

How are you calculating 5W? And subsequently 20Wh?

I would have thought that if we’ve learned anything in the last 100 years, it’s that prohibition of, well, anything, simply does not work. We can only try to harness the thing to improve mankind as much as possible, and regulate/control/obsolete it as much as we can otherwise. I would say this is especially true with technologies.

It's an arms race, that's just how competing interests work.

Archicad is amazing, but unfortunately, technically not free.

Absolutely. I wish there was secular community that offered as much.
