The innovation isn’t the product, it is the manufacturing. The cells in pacemakers had the housing of the pacemaker to protect from puncture.

These devices are meant to go in portable electronics so puncture safety is far more critical.

Honestly radioactive copper as a low volt lifetime battery is an interesting idea. It won’t live power a phone but it could charge it while inactive.

Good for camping where solar isn’t viable.

The suffering should never be the point. It never gives meaningful satisfaction to the bereaved and affected and studies support this.

It is only human and normal to burn with anger and a desire to see monsters such as this torn apart and made to suffer.

This is part of our animal mind that views tribal justice and the dubious ‘wisdom of the crowds’ as absolute, and most of the fuckdamn reason we’ve spent so long learning how to live around millions of each other is in part giving up these outdated and unhelpful social traits.

In the long run, from the cultural perspective, no amount of his suffering will bring his victims back, and no amount of suffering will convince him that he was morally wrong.

So execute him, and quickly, and spend the money otherwise that would have covered his upkeep on free food for single parents.

What alternative do you have for people actively detrimental to societies such as serial killers and child rapists?

The only danger that creeps in here is ‘who gets to decide who is useless and dangerous?’ because I wear glasses and don’t feel like being on the receiving end of a Khmer Rouge style microcide.

The root of all of a state’s power is the right to employ violence. It is a barbaric practice but to be fair we are a barbaric species.

Some people should not be allowed to curse the earth with their existence.

It may be barbaric, and considering how many innocents have been railroaded into it via abuse or neglect of justice, ethically untenable on the face of it.

That said, I feel there are certain people who’s actions are so horrific and ideologies so dangerous that should not be allowed to harm society again, and that includes having to pay for their upkeep.

There are many worthy of execution that have been released to kill again.

In our imperfect world it is not right to levy a judgment that cannot be reversed.

If we magically had perfect knowledge of guilt and innocence, I would have zero issue with the death penalty being applied.

Since that world does not, and cannot exist, I will accept life imprisonment, grudgingly. Some people simply cannot or will not be rehabilitated.

COMING THIS SUMMER THE BLOCKBUSTER THEY DON’T WANT YOU TO SEE!

Oppenheimer!

Tesla!

Big Daddy E!

Across the chasm of time itself these three masters of reality converge to combine their brilliant minds and hone their arts to battle fascism’s most powerful madman: Cyber UltraHitler Mark 5! Thrill at high-stakes airship combat as Tesla unleashes his Even Deather Ray on the nazi zeppelin fleets! Never before have these mighty Men of Science gathered to battle such a desperate foe! Come for the explosions but STAY for the Intense Chalkboard Action!

PCMCIA but we don’t need to use it much nowadays

Not to vegans, they’re clinically insane.

The pest control is true for the short term, though I find that over time even well kept facilities develop some kind of pest problem.

maybe if they kept chickens in the lobby…

The notable thing about highrises is a small solar footprint, and you need to have ownership/rights to install on the roof.

If you have that much space for solar panels, then maybe a traditional grow would be better than urban vert farming

There’s an organic produce company in Manhattan that uses vertical grow chambers and they get around the lighting problem by illuminating from the center of the cluster and rotating the plant pods occasionally.

They get around energy usage by charging a premium and taking advantage of state agricultural grants.

It’s expensive but you can get city grown butter lettuce year round.

Oh, you’re one of the kind I left reddit because of. Lets see if there are any blocking tools on lemmy.

OH and you ALSO have -5 reputation ALREADY.

What is wrong with you?

I know for a fact I’ve aged past plasticity and IPv6 will never be ‘natural’ but then as far as IT guys go, literally no one I work with is younger than me lol!

I’m retiring soon and fine without spending more of my life expanding a knowledge set I may only use for a few more years, that said I am ABSOLUTELY into crypto and was an early miner before GPUs got edged out.

As far as AI writing code: It simply is the future. I am not exaggerating.

At some point humans will not write line by line code and being a coder will mean ‘knowing how to best instruct AI to make code, then reviewing and verifying it’, and at some point the code AI will write will be incomprehensible to human reading, just like how antennas are designed today.

We are in the infancy of it but I GUARANTEE you there is at lease 2 groups right now training AI on codebases alone.

Guaran-fucking-tee

And the stuff they will make will FLOOD the market with cheap, quick apps and basically turn hand coding into an artisan work or for specific use instances.

That’s a pretty good idea actually but may not cleanly translate to existing infrsatructure.

I got some inspiration from the Dark Souls messages system, and how it can be cross language

There will be a set of tags that the community settles on, things like ‘funny’ and ‘informative’, but also like with any hashtag I think users should be able to create their own and then let other users choose to use or ignore it. This means each community can create their own tag noetic library where the tags only apply to that community’s meaning.

For example the tag ‘sick’ may mean ‘awesome’ in the extreme sports subs but mean ‘actually ill’ in the medical subs, and people can use both freely knowing that it will be the community connotation that is used.

This also means it is language agnostic and people can use the language they use the site in to create new tag clouds for communities.

And with the coming AI chatbot age and forum manipulation, we NEED something better than simple, we need something adaptive, language agnostic, and community focused.

I think the only way to really make this work is to have a crowdsourced safeguard system that doesn’t rely on individuals.

Personally I think tagging is the only thing that can work, because it is a multi axis upvote downvote system that simultaneously creates metadata that isn’t tied to user identity.

The reason it DOESN’T work on Steam reviews is that bad actors are not punished for ‘joke’ tags, and a persistent reputation system per user would fix that.

When content gets a lot of views and engagement, the outlier engagement is easily identified, i.e. ‘joke’ tags, and a temporary decrement on that users’s ‘community power’ can be enacted making each of the tags they use count for less than an average user.

The opposite is true, people who frequently tag useful tags early can be identified, and given more community power, where their tags are worth temporarily slightly more than the average user.

To keep ‘community royalty’ from forming, the extra community power for good tags decreases to normal over time, meaning that only through consistent and frequent community engagement can ‘super users’ maintain their power, meaing if they start to abuse it the backlash will decrement their community power back to a normal user quickly.

With the explosion of forum manipulation and AI chatbots we NEED a better way, and the only way we are going to get there is trying new things.

Well,. here’s a new thing to try.

This is undeniably true though as I am tasked as the security monitor for several tiny LANs, NOT letting every device have DMZ access has its advantages.

Maybe I’m just too greybeard to want to change. I love IPv6 for infrastructure and personal devices. For my home LAN and those I am responsible for, a tightly nailed down IPv4 environment is what I prefer.

I’ll leave the massive address space and IoT readiness to you young and upcoming packet jockys, and in my retirement will marvel at the wonders you create.

For now, you’ll get your DHCP and you’ll like it if you want to stay in my house young man!
