Looks to me that using shark patterns inside a jet engine (vs as outer skin) incl hardened printing methods is a new tech, and yes everybody can eventually imitate/repeat other peoples tech, but it'll take time to get things right, so the article seem unbiased enough.

Not much help, but a quick search revealed this: https://github.com/nschlia/ffmpegfs

This seemed to be read-only tho, so not sure if it covers the use case you described. If you can program a little (AI help?) find a simple fuse filesystem in a language you know, fiddle with it and call ffmpeg or similar on receiving files.

Image recognition, speech2txt, txt2speech, classification and such smaller models. They are fast but have no memory worth mentioning and are heavily dependent on data access speed. Afaik, transformer based models are hugely memory bound and may not be a good match if run on these externally via Usb3.

Good honest article..

For noobs/lurkers like me:

'The Nivenly Foundation brings sustainability, autonomy, and control to open source projects and communities around the globe.'

'Haidra is the overarching organization for the ecosystem built around the AI Horde.'

'AI Horde is a Free/Open Source Software allowing everyone to cluster compute for generative AI.'

I totally love these 'lets run X on this completely unrelated Y' projects, and nested projects like running emulators in simulators etc. Nerds for the world!!

I have used it to bypass geo-location (via tor exitnodes) for years when listening to pandora radio. Have never been worried, but have never heard anything bad either. I got it from fdroid..

ALL marketplaces goes down the Capitalist shittification avenue. 100 gazillion combative market fanatics always trying to sell whatever crap they have, or just scam people straight up. Even proprietary controlled markets have crap content, and are themselves scamming their users. Anyone could/should have predicted that openai's ordinary marketplace would also end in garbage..

Just an amateur opinion: If we think of science as a beliefsystem (a system to arrive at a close approximation of truth), it is much more adaptive than any other explanatory system. I think for that reason alone it will 'win' in the long run, but emotional systems will carry on/blossom in some form or another as societal breakdowns occurs, or if Science incentives gets compromised by ideology/money, thereby resulting in less trust.

If we look at what science already know, some Physicists, (carrol etc) believe we already have an 'engineering corpus' of everything we see on a daily basis, but as soon as we look at the edges of non-human scales/focus there's a lot to find yet.

Even if we ever find a theory of everything and know all the primary forces, we still need to learn all the ways these forces can be combined, and we cant readily predict 'interesting phenomenons' down the line from an algorithm, so exploring will continue in our current reductionist exploration, but will perhaps pivot to a more holistic exploration. Steven Wolframs 'ruliad' is supposed to contain all possible combinations of everything and all their derivations (forgot the def. ;) ), and he talks about theoretical science realms that we will have a hard time even seeing/understanding. Some argue that the primary forces also varies across the universe. Chaos theory argue that it will take endless energy to collect endless dynamic data - even if we compress it into math/axioms etc. All exploration of chaotic space will take time to compute. Also, If we want to utilize our knowledge we need to either store/retrieve, or compute based on data/algorithms. In Billions of years this use/pursuit of knowledge will cost a lot of energy.

There's a lot to think about in such a question, but it's interesting how we can send shit to other planets, but we completely lack the knowledge/technology to manage a large ecosystem, or organize our self in a way where we don't harm each other or our habitat. The first is very easy compared dynamic systems. I don't think we've even scratched the surface of what our dynamic systems can do for us if we learn to tame them.

Anyway, in the long now, thousands of years, I think the system of Science will evolve, improve, but we will not reach 42. There will always (billions of years) be combinations of forces that we cant predict easily and some we have to explore/create to discover/enjoy.

It got a bit messy, sorry..

Not an expert but if there's 3 lines to the fan, then the motherboard might measure fan speed and complain loudly that a fan is missing. It's mostly on newer laptops, but perhaps check that before deciding?

Imho SOLID is underestimated and underutilized in the open source world. It can even be used as local desktop login..

Hm, not sure why he thinks bcachefs will 'mature' over the coming months ? ..unless more debugging/stability features are enabled by default.

I hoped for more speed umpf, but looking forward to testing..
