Because the benign thing is standard as fuck in many languages, it’s also in Unicode as a single character.

Yeah that shit is more common than people think.

A big part of the business of cloud providers is that most orgs have no idea how to do shit. Their enterprise consultants are also wildly variable in competence.

There was also a large amount of useless bullshit that I needed to cut down since being hired at my current spot, but the amount of containers is actually warranted. We do have that traffic, which is both happy and sad, since while business is booming, I have to deal with this.

I know using work as an example is cheating, but around 1400-1500 to 5000-6000 depending on load throughout the day.

At home it’s 12.

I mean if they are going to be doing model collapse, might as well go full throttle

And that is deliberate

An IBCM is hard to hide. And they don’t need to.

And also hurt rich people with bunkers as well.

IIRC the USA does not have intercontinental missile launch sites in anywhere but the US. The US nukes in Europe are all plane borne bombs.

Those can’t really be launched unless both the US and the host country agree, and France and the UK have a bunch of those as well.

Europe has nuclear weapons closer to the US than Greenland.

Technically, if everything works as if on paper, an attack on Greenland is an attack on Denmark. An attack on Denmark is an attack on France, according to EU articles, which are more tightly binding than NATO ones. And the French have nukes on subs floating under the Atlantic in undisclosed places, and their nuclear doctrine is basically “we use nukes as warning shots”.

In practice, just selling all US securities and cash reserves held by Europe would basically cause the US economy to implode overnight, and the US government to have to declare bankruptcy, and stop being able to pay or even feed its soldiers.

The problem is that it would also cause a deep recession in the EU and basically all over the world, so that’s why we’re playing chicken.

Slopilot

Its incredibly hard to search on the web nowadays, so this is the best I could find. If I try searching for anything military, it’s propaganda slop.

It’s not specifically about nukes, and it might have been the origin point of an urban legend that reached my circles mutated.

Also it’s technically a storage leak not a memory leak.

One thing I think about is that we make servers with ECC RAM because normal RAM has cosmic rays cause random corruption IIRC once every 100 days on average.

It’s overkill for desktops because you don’t care about 3 bit flips every year if you only have 1 machine as opposed to managing thousands in a datacenter, and you regularly restart your stuff anyway.

And then you have people who have to deal with hundreds of people who never restart their stuff.

And companies ship stuff with memory leaks all the time on top of this. US nuclear guidance systems have them, but they are not expected to have to be on constantly for weeks on end like the laptop of Joan from Marketing.

I felt exactly the same way with (combat) flight sims.

Without VR, a lot of it was practicing maneuvers and attitudes as the target or the airfield would be out of my view most of the time. With VR, it just feels right, you can just keep the target in sight and move yourself into position. Your sense of distance and attitude is also 100% better. I can fly altitudes better, dogfight much better and so on.

You also get a much better sense of the whole plane, how big it is, how it moves around, and it also is tons more immersive. I can do 2 hour flights without getting bored easy in VR - not that you don’t get hella tired from that.

The only good thing about this is that we get to watch how Trump can even make US naval procurement worse. It’s definitely going to be a challenge, but the US definitely chose the best person for the job.

Immovable objects and unstoppable forces and stuff.

I’ll be honest, your technique makes the half done sketch look better and closer to what I’d consider a finished piece than the AI copy.

It fucked up your lines and made them uninteresting. I like the original better.

I’m neither militantly anti-AI nor an artist, I just think AI is kinda shit at doing things.

Being IT for you must be like being janitor to a brothel

I don’t see how Russia would agree to US-EU forces on its border. Isn’t this deal DOA?

That’s why for once, the press’ nuke metaphors are apt.

Everyone has the US by the balls, that’s what the USD being reserve currency means.

Everyone owns a lot of USD, both cash and securities, so when the US prints money, inflation hits all the world.

Dumping basically means saying “hey, I’ve got the entire US GDP here in cash USD, I’m selling it for 100 EUR”, and watching the US go hyperinflating.

The catch is that it would crash the world economy.

Collaboration and empathy raised us and made us dominant.

Sociopathy is a disease.
