Thank you for your service.

Yes. I think we just need a cultural norm where indie instances proudly proclaim their indie credentials and the associated risks, while large reliable servers share how they are backed up and managed, as well.

I plan to operate on expired certificates for two to four years, forcing all three of my users to click past a terrible warning.

Then I will automate my six day certificate rotation with Ansible (officially), but maybe actually with a stupid bash script in CRON (unofficially).

The real value is in the agility needed to update certs every six days.

Six days is still too long to leave a compromised key in play, but anyone who can rotate their keys every six days can probably also rotate their keys quite quickly if there’s a comprise.

Says everything I need to know about the change.

Yea. Slightly modified - “If conditions are now so prefect now that 8 billion humans can ask their computer nicely to program itself, and it works, then why is non-shit-tier software still vanishingly rare?”

Why does it cost so much to engineer new models?

We need at least two massive quantum leaps in quality before this stuff can be long-term profitable; and there probably simply aren’t two quantum leaps left in the current pathways being explored.

But turning off all the bots, contracts, and lies would cause the investment money to stop immediately, rather than later.

Everyone perpetrating this scam wants to cash out a tiny bit more before it crashes.

Right. But Fermi’s Paradox applies.

Everyone is buying and selling software miracle cure…but all of the software itself is still exaclty as healthy as a con artists prize race horse (not healthy, and actually a mule).

And a lot more money. And so much more power and water. And more data. And more money, too.

They probably live much longer.

But then that’s more years of not eating and drinking to excess…so I can see it both ways.

I was taught how to eat in school, from a food pyriamid modified by producers of breads, dairy and sugar. :(

I’m working on adding to my vocabulary:

“Please be yourself.”

Free space.

Excellent. Can “brings up love of trains in an unrelated conversation” have a separate space from “the world would be a utopia without cars”?

It’s basically the same, but I really like trains and wanted an excuse to mention them.

Sub-thread of a conversation of something unrelated becomes an open source software recommendations mini thread.

I heard one of their private rape islands got shut down. That had to be inconvenient.

Luckily for the billionaires they don’t own any homes, their homes are part of a complex companies, or some bullshit.

We got the nerd tech who exudes, “I’d rather be at ComiCon.”

Wow. That describes my whole team.

Probably depends where the Bayer funding is at.
