Isn't GIT you can have a statement that is valid in a system, but can't be proven this way or that given the systems' axioms? And this is true for all such axiom systems? In other words the axioms are an incomplete description of the system.
Maybe the problem is axiomative deduction, we need a new inference-ology?
I understand the desire to make a suite of apps, and to create something cool for people to play with. Is your motivation to involve your creation with this topic specifically because you desire to expose people doing bad things, for the righteousness and morality of such?
Also, do you feel it's more important that the information simply "gets out there" than there exist a coherent set of theses addressing questions like: 1) what was the nature, scope and purpose of the hustle Epstein was fronting/running? 2) Who unequivocally did bad things related to this?
It's not an either or, but right now it appears the topic is data without conclusion.
I think it would be interesting to target an AI at all the data and have it devise a set of theses with support. My feeling is the topic remains in a state of "100% data, 0% conclusions" - which appears to be a way to sate public curiosity while avoiding consequence.
If you can ride a regular bicycle, you can ride a penny farthing. Getting on and off is the trick (there’s a small step on the frame above the small wheel). Once you’re in the saddle, just ride like you normally would. Watch out for potholes, or over the top you go. But I’ve put a few folks on mine while friends hold the bike, and they’ve had no problems riding it.
That said, they are very dangerous as they tip forward way too easily if you’re leaning too far forward or bombing down a hill, and it is a long way down. Everyone I know who has ridden for any length of time (as in, years of riding 100 mile rides (oh, yes, people ride them that far), parades, and the like) has been seriously hurt, myself included.
I hesitate to call Hetzner "cloud". Hetzner is an EC2+S3 competitor, not an AWS one. IMO the minimum for being a real cloud is you need hosted Postgres, hosted Kafka, hosted Kubernetes, and S3-compatible object storage. Without the first three Hetzner is just not in the same product category. Nobody sensible buys AWS for the comically overpriced EC2.
Another missed component is a real autoscaling load balancer. This often gets missed and taken for granted. Possibly due to if you haven't seen a good one (AWS) you might not realise what you're missing. Most aspiring "cloud" companies have fixed capacity single tennant load balancers which is not cloud in any definition.
It's far cheaper to do it yourself, but the entire point is that you outsource the management of the service. Lots of people don't want to deal with database failovers, or - god forbid - deal with Kubernetes control plane issues.
On the opposite, it is more expensive, and any large enough company should probably at least consider renting metal rather than services. For a small org, though, it lets you avoid a lot of infrastructure/ops work.
You understood it! I’m so proud of you. Actually I think you’re kind of special because the reference requires stitching together some desperate signals. I think you’re pretty creative.
Cool idea. What do you think about dependence on that though? Do you feel like a kind of betrayal of human potential to not train your wetware but to only be Zen in augment?
