Longer - fifteen, closer to twenty years. It took this long for there to be one or two companies that they could be sure wouldn’t just cut and run (especially given how cutthroat the aerospace industry is).
Living 20 minutes into the future. Eccentric weirdo. Virtual Adept. Time traveler. Thelemite. Technomage. Hacker on main. APT 3319. Not human. 30% software and implants. H+ - 0.4 on the Berram-7 scale. Furry adjacent. Pan/poly. Burnout.
I try to post as sincerely as possible.

Conventionally Point Nemo is the target.
SpaceX’s track record for orbital insertion definitely had something to do with that. When last I knew, N-G didn’t have its own launch facilities (that might’ve changed in the last few years but I doubt it).
Probably jet lagged, too. A lot of pre-prods are worked on during the flight home from a conference and after one gets home when they can’t sleep.
Trying to kill the Internet Archive would set just the precedent publishers want to kill community libraries.
I’d be surprised if the big publishers didn’t try setting up their own pay-for-access libraries in a few years.
Change up the kinds of malware they write.
Do people seriously not keep copies of their finished work anymore? They just post them and delete the local copy?
I thought that feature was built into it, but okay.
Folks have made it - I think ollama was name-checked specifically because it’s on Github and in Homebrew and in some distros’ package repositories (it’s definitely in Arch’s). I think some folks (at least) aren’t talking about it because of the general hate-on folks have for LLMs these days.
“Those who would repeat the past must control the teaching of history.”
You don’t say.
Outfits that haven’t installed patches since February are getting popped in May by a vuln that was published in January.
I wonder how many folks are just refusing to use Rust to spite the Rust Evangelism Strike Team.
Let’s agree to disagree. It does what I need.
Firefox. Syncthing. KeepassXC. (g)vim. ssh. git. htop. less.
Is it bad that I keep wondering if one of the big book publishers bought a DDoS from somebody’s botnet?
That lawsuit was a long time in coming. Covid just goosed the schedule forward about a year, and probably made it easier.
There are spambots that still post on Usenet newsgroups even after organics abandoned them twenty years ago.
They have had a plan for it, from the very beginning. Big-budget space projects like ISS don’t get anywhere without a wrap-up plan. ISS is in LEO, and its mass contraindicates moving it into a graveyard orbit. Conventionally, stuff in LEO gets de-orbited; same thing happened with Skylab in '79.
