I ran from Reddit, it be like that
- Comment on DNS security is important but DNSSEC may be a failed experiment 5 days ago:
Nice opinion piece, but I disagree with the core idea that dnssec’s biggest problem is visibility (also, there hasn’t been any padlock icon in years in browsers). IMHO we have 3 main drivers that made https a success, and dnnsec (and smtps) not:
- enforced by browsers: while you could file it under “visibility”, the difference to me is that browsers refuse to load your site without https. If they had resorted to a mere red address bar, https would never really have taken off.
- ”atomic”: a site with failed https is only 1 failed site. Other sites, APIs, mail servers etc under the same domain will still work.
- DNSSEC is HARD. Yes, your dns./website provider makes it look easy but really, this stuff is seriously hard to do right now, and there is little tooling to help you with it; the same reason smtps (and maybe ipv6) failed so hard, I think.

Did you drop this /s?
- Comment on Microsoft uses 'Copilot' for practically everything. A watchdog wants the company to change its advertising. 1 month ago:
Why all the effort? Wait a few weeks and Microsoft will have renamed it themselves anyway.

Are you British, perchance? The phlegmatic and restrained professional answer does indicate such origins.
- Comment on Data centers powering artificial intelligence could use more electricity than entire cities 8 months ago:
“Could” is key here. You know as well as I that even in Europe, this isn’t going to happen.
Related: I did read somewhere that OpenAI’s Sam Altman invested US$370m in (tadaa) fusion - the energy source that’s been expected within 30 years for as long as I can remember. Like it or not , that’s never going to “fix” anything in 3 years time. - Comment on Data centers powering artificial intelligence could use more electricity than entire cities 8 months ago:
“But but but… AI will solve the pollution problem!!1!”
In the end, indeed it will.

Definitely.

“Don’t do that again, now pay a cookie crumb for this highly illegal attempt to meddle with democracy”.
Sigh.

Are they mentally or ethically incontinent? Stupid and/or evil is leaking out from everywhere.

There is a different story here, hidden beneath the floor boards.

How oddly specific. Are you, perchance, afraid of garlic?
