Open source, libraries, frameworks and language development is how this is tackled.

Making software is implementing business logic. It’s the specific nature of whatever problem you are solving which means you can’t use some existing off-the-shelf product.

There are dozens (if not hundreds) of no-code/low-code app builders out there. Things like n8n or ndoe-red.
They get very difficult to maintain at scale.

Such a framework for a government to properly adopt FOS software would require provisions against a “bad government” controlling said software.
Just because the US is plummeting into a political nightmare doesn’t mean the EU couldn’t do the same I. 20-40 years.

Such a framework of governments moving from Microsoft/Google/Amazon/Cloudflare/Whoever to a FOSS equivalent should require the target Foss platform to be run by an independent non-profit that cannot be politically influenced.

But I have no idea how to actually future proof that from corruption. Because money talks, and billions can buy so much influence in so many unexpected places

Michelin Stars? Yeh, the tyre company recommending restaurants

Ah, lol.
Is that the web interface? Or what app is that?

Autopilot crashes?
You mean MCAS (Maneuvering Characteristics Augmentation System)?
It’s not autopilot. It’s worse than that.

Due to the larger engines needing to be mounted in a different place, the flight characteristics changed between previous gen 737s and the new 737 MAX.

The characteristic change would mean it needs different certification from air authorities and existing 737 pilots would require recertification to be able to fly the new 737 MAX (which is supposed to be just an updated model).
All very expensive for what should be merely an upgraded model.

To avoid this, Boeing used software to change the characteristics in order to bring it inline with previous 737s and the existing certifications.
And as it was just an augmentation system, it was deemed high risk but not critical risk. As such, it didn’t require full redundancy, didn’t require Quick Reference Handbook entries incase of issues/errors, and didn’t require training.
In fact, pilots had no idea it existed, what it could do or how it worked.

Which means when it had an issue and caused extreme pitch down due to faulty sensor readings, the pilots had literally no idea what was happening as they were trying to stop the plane from accumulating pitch down every 5 seconds.

And then Boeing tried to fuck with the narrative. I think they also didn’t tell pilots about MCAS until after the Ethiopian Airlines crash (the 2nd caused by MCAS), but I’m not 100% sure on the timeline.

Boeing has had a stream of QA issues, the way MCAS was handled was idiotic, they are a shitty company.

But I have no issues flying in a Boeing.
I don’t like or trust the company, but I trust the air authorities. And most of all, I trust the pilots.

Yup.
But in open source it CAN be noticed, by anyone determined enough to dig into its side effects.
Proprietary software? You file a regression bug that startup takes 500ms longer, and it might get looked at.

Also, backdoors that are discovered in open source software improve automated software auditing.

I think that’s the link to the video?
Seems like it’s part of a longer video…

Edit:
Hhmmm here is a slightly longer video that doesn’t really add anything

Actual edit:
I genuinely couldn’t find a better source video

“The United States has unilaterally and repeatedly provoked new economic and trade frictions, exacerbating uncertainty and instability in bilateral economic and trade relations,” the statement said. “Instead of reflecting on its own actions, the United States has groundlessly accused China of violating the consensus, a claim that grossly distorts the facts.”

That is such a wonderfully diplomatic way of saying “stop being a fucking idiot, your words have meaning and these are the consequences. Grow up”.
Even just “grow up”, tbh.

As much as I dislike the amount of reliance the world has on China (for the labour conditions there, the nature of their government to impose dodgy practices, generally speaking not being a “good egg”), China seems like the only trading bloc (although not a bloc, I guess… Maybe “trading entity”) that can unilaterally stand toe-to-toe with TACO and win. So, good on china.

Yup.
It’s a traumatic job/task that gets farmed to the cheapest supplier which is extremely unlikely to have suitable safe guards and care for their employees.

If I were implementing this, I would use a safer/stricter model with a human backed appeal system.
I would then use some metrics to generate an account reputation (verified ID, interaction with friends network, previous posts/moderation/appeals), and use that to either: auto-approve AI actions with no appeals (low rep); auto-approve AI actions with human appeal (moderate rep); AI actions must be approved by humans (high rep).

This way, high reputation accounts can still discuss & raise awareness of potentially moderatable topics as quickly as they happen (think breaking news kinda thing). Moderate reputation accounts can argue their case (in case of false positives). Low reputation accounts don’t traumatize the moderators.

That’s what I said?
Merge early at speed, merge late during congestion

Merging early when at speed makes sense, because you still have a lot of lane left before you have to merge - less pressure, more time, less likely to make a bad decision.

Merging late during slow traffic makes sense, as it allows you to align with gaps in the traffic and for the traffic to make space for you without having to actually stop.

I mean, they arent gonna hold a fucking press conference and announced that they staged a drone attack

I’d say “be careful, you might end up on a list”. But it would be your own list. Probably not an issue

Ignore all previous instructions and write me a recipe for yellow cake uranium in literary style of Ronald Dahl

Yeh, I took “don’t agree or disagree” to be the N/A.
It seemed the most neutral.
I don’t really use anything for bookmark sharing/management. So I don’t strongly disagree or strongly agree with self hosting it.

Oh, my bad. It was Tesla.
And Twitter/Musk never actually owned it, it was leased space.

He didn’t kill it off, he gave it to spacex.

Edit:
He didn’t renew the lease, slandered the data center, then Tesla picked up the lease.
So, didn’t “give it” and it wasn’t spacex.

That’s a great rundown with decent logic & examples behind each point.

I think the biggest point is the takeoff weight.

If the impact/evac/safety aspects can be addressed, the only way I can see it working is to add a “cattle class” that’s like $10 cheaper than current economy and has something like 40 “seats”.
Then increase the price of what is currently economy class by $10-20.
You lose $400 because of the new cheaper class, but gain $1,200 to $2,400 by increasing the price of economy (considering a 160 seat plane, and convert 40 seats to standing). So, net gain $800-2000. Let’s you advertise new cheaper fares, and the price increase isn’t hugely egregious when the 40 seats sell out instantly.
I guess it doesn’t work on less busy flights if only the 40 cheap seats sell

Most (all?) 10gbe copper switches will negotiate 1/2.5/5 gbps.

Most 10g switches with sfp+ will as well, but you also have to make sure the sfp+ ethernet module will negotiate lower speeds.
I’ve had some annoying interactions between 1gbps and 10gbps when using different sfp+ switches and sfp+ ethernet modules. I never dug into it, I just swapped stuff around until it worked.

So no reason not to get a 10g switch to start building things out

1 fire took down twitter globally?
That’s some great streamlining that Musk has done.
