This is a kind of issue where big states should think and co-operate and discuss before they act, to present a united front in Congress and courts.

Yes. The leisure industry is, in fact, a real industry, and it is a service industry that creates a lot of employment.

The new os.Root is supposed to handle symlinks correctly in a sandbox, but (of course?) the first release had a bug related to symlinks.

And TLA+ and Lean say "catch it before you write any code".

> But for serious projects I expect to maintain long-term, I still pick Go.

Maintenance is a big win for Go imho - that you can go to code you wrote a year or more ago - and jump right back into it, with little-to-no re-learning curve. The syntax is not providing cover for complexity bombs, and the tools keep the workflow simple and quick.

How is it with Rust ? Does one's own old code remain maintainable ?

If you want the masses to run locally, try squeezing the memory requirements down even more. 8GB of system RAM is not uncommon IRL, I suspect.

Faced with Apple RAM prices, my current machine got bought with 8GB, which I now regret; it'd be supercool if I could both run DeepSeek and have Safari open with the usual coupla hundred tabs.

For me the CPAP was too damn invasive. Fail. So as an alternative they made me a dental appliance. I put it in at bedtime and it kept my lower jaw jutted out just enough to maintain airflow. It worked :)

Yes! I had a mandibular advancement device for many years, but after about 10, my lower jaw stopped resetting all the way in the morning. I forced myself to find the right CPAP (nasal pillows with fabric elastic chin strap to keep my mouth closed). It's been about 5 years and my jaw finally is >95% back to normal (YMMV).

But by far the most critical part of getting CPAP to work was using an open source program to review the SD card raw data every morning, learning the interplay between max/min pressure, temperature, humidity, and ramp. Gaining access to the admin controls on my AirSense and fiddling it myself over weeks to find the right settings--this was the only way I made it work. The idea of waiting 6 months to make a change to the pressure was bonkers to me. Especially, for some reason, my brain is shit the next morning if I over oxygenate with too high max pressure overnight, worse than not wearing it at all!

But once you dial in the settings. It's magic.

> Autonomous operations will increase with time, and sooner or later warring nations will just drop clouds of small drones in particular areas and 'let god sort them out'.

This does feel inevitable. And yet can it be made "hackproof"? Even now there are claims that Russian EW is responsible for not just confusing but also taking control of Ukrainian drones, sending them into Baltic countries.

Nowadays potential insurrections are starved by population dispersion into low-density areas, like suburbs. It's getting hard to form an angry mob.
