Can't even sign up. Gives generic error about "payment / registration failed" - its a regular credit card that I use everywhere. Oh well...kinda glad to be honest.
Knowing Oracle it will eventually become a nightmare anyway (whoops, we accidentally billed you $70 for the free-tier, but you need to manually call this long-distance number between the hours of 9am-4pm to reverse the charge and this also happens to be our sales dept)
>In Derek's example the switch and the bulb are 1 meter away from each other and therefore the time is 1/c seconds, i.e the time light takes to travel 1 meter.
Perhaps I didn't make my example clear. Imagine loop with 2 switches...one switch 1 LY away...another switch 1 meter away.
Derek flips the 1m switch and light instantly turns on: What does that tell you?
Derek flips the 1m switch and light doesn't turn on: What does that tell you?
How were you able to find out that information before waiting 1 yr?
Can someone answer the General Relativity concerns regarding this?
Imagine the same loop as Derek setup in the video, but where it extended into next galaxy (say 1 light year away). In next galaxy there is another switch - we don't know if the position of that switch is open or closed...
Now when Derek connects his switch and light nearly instantly turns on...this is obviously telling us information regarding the switch 1 Light Year away. How does this not violate General Relativity since seemingly that information is traveling faster than speed of light?

Thats probably true to a degree, however I think the system will breakdown this decade. Given current inflation rates, anyone with an IQ >120 will soon see that the debt/benefit ratio is becoming unworkable.
The last 2 employees my company hired actually game via github - we were using an open-source repo that someone had made and eventually reached out and asked him if he wanted to consult for us and add some features to his code...that lead to an ongoing basic permanent consulting gig.
Its pretty otherworldly, I was an active member of a top 25 sub. Although the sub is decidedly non-political, the mod recently decided to post a politic-specific sticky as first post.
I commented in that thread "this sub is probably not the place for these overtly political posts"...the mod responded to me by banning me for "advocating politics / agenda pushing"...its literally orwellian newspeak site.
At the recent COP26 in Scotland, they flew in 80+ EV to parade around in...however there wasn't enough charging stations to charge the vehicles so they had to find a fleet of petrol powered generators.
This is a perfect microcosm of the state of the ongoing climate crisis scam.
Munger is a real proponent of Chinese-style capitalism and generally praises the idea of social-credit systems.
It only makes sense that his architecture style would also favor brutalism. He probably repurposed some of the designs of the old commie-blocks from eastern europe.
>There's no way for me, a hypothetical person who wants to keep my Signal messages 100% encrypted in the Signal ecosystem, to opt out of my contacts using an Element bridge.
This sounds like a made-up concern.
How do you stop me from screenshotting your convo and posting on twitter, or just copying and pasting from one app to the next?
* Local RPI / Container connects to message queue in cloud
* Web User inputs request to Web UI (cloud)
* Local RPI / Container retrieves request via queue and access final device
* Reports status back to queue which is then reported by Web UI
Basically the local device is your router using whatever message queue you want.
We're a industrial-control company whose traditional UI has been standard win32 applications - we've slowing converting our stack over to a web interface but as our UI needs to talk to lots of local devices, we've hit the problems you described.
Our solution has been to basically mandate that the user install either a small embedded device (ie. RPI or equiv) or manually launch a container. These essentially just serve as a local websocket / api router so Chrome connects to some local "device/container" and then that connects to all the local devices.
Although this is a logistical hurdle, its actually simplified other aspects of development since now this device/container has a bit of intelligence and can act as real middleware to simplify what the UI needs to contemplate. Basically MVC-style development using hardware bits as Controller.
MacOS and Windows have figured out that showing a GUI ASAP satisfies the user. Even if in the background its still negotiating networks, initializing sub-systems, etc.
I wonder why Linux has not yet taken that approach? That is move GUI far up in the init-queue and let it initialize networks, avahi, resolved, firewalld, etc as GUI is showing login screen...
