I hear Ass is difficult to milk

it only really worked as part of a team.

Where it worked well is the "devops" or sre/sysadmin would sit in the same team and take away the rough edges of the infra.

conversly they would also keep an eye on the web people and see what they are doing and why, learning the tooling they use and try and rationalise it so they don't install 50 messaging queues.

most firewalls limit ICMP across their boundaries, hence why ping doesn't work for a lot of places from the outside in.

This exploit is a unicast packet, which is unsolicited. For NAT, you probably don't need to do much. for ipv6 you'll need to make sure that your firewall doesn't blindly pass on ICMP ie make sure its a stateful firewall.

wait, IPA in an ultrasonic bath? isn't that asking for fire? normally ultrasonic baths are warmed, so you are heating a liquid and causing cavitation in something that has a flashpoint of 11c.

Resin is much more precise, but its still plastic.

The stepup to CNC will allow aluminium and brass parts, but depth will be a challenge. Making anything deeper than a few cm on a desktop CNC is possible but has limitations.

Just to add to this post, the resin isn't great to handle, but crucially for the end user, you need to post process the part quite a bit before its "usable"

The part needs to be washed, and then stuck in a UV bath to do a final curing.

Having said that, you get higher precision parts and can print in optically transparent materials.

I mean yeah, but who is letting unfiltered ICMP onto a production network?

I mean I get the appeal, but that does mean that your agents also have the same level of access as you, and no way to limit actions to agents.

For us, most of our MCPs have non-undoable actions disabled. This is to stop agents writing a tool that recursively doing something silly.

The way they captured the actual spray whilst printing was really clever.

The print head is in a fixed location, as is the camera. The paper is moved under the print head. BUT! the clever bit is having the printhead driven by the rotatry encoder attached to the moveable platform

This means that the head is always in focus, and perfectly lit, plus you can experiment with speed trivially.

I think we broadly agree. I wasn't precise in what I meant by parental training. As you pointed out, in modern british cities, outside of the immigrant communities, parental duties are rarely communal. Moreover they are happening later and as you point out, away from family and other support groups.

This is a change that has accelerated in the last 25 years, and we do all need to do something about it. I suspect the first step is making housing mor affordable, which means building more homes. (both "private" and social, [council housing] we can't just cater to one part of the market.)

hooooboy yes.

> No, Jan 6th wasn’t part of the political process.

You and I might not _like_ jan the 6th, but it was part of the process, it started out as a rally for their candidate, and then dissolved into a riot.

The consequences for the rioters, and the pardoning of them subsequently signalled where the country was going. (Biden trying very hard to not ever be seen as partisan, at the expense of justice, and Trump asserting that loyalty to him is the only currency that matters.)

Not all rallies are for the good of the country, or move the country forward. But they are part of the process, legitimate or not.

The civil rights protest were widely seen as illegitimate, and they were brutally put down. It was only through persistence and a wide base of political action from peaceful marches right up to armed resistance, did laws change.

Its a mix.

Some of them think its safe, others think the risk is overblown, and a lot just don't want to deal with their kid having a shit fit.

In the UK, unless you are adopting a kid with needs, you will not get any parenting training. so you're on your own on how to deal with children. TV was safe when I was a kid, and younger parents who grew up with digital TV also had safe watching, why would youtube kids be any different?

With my kids (and yes this is a boast, I'm middle class, this is how we assert dominance) I was lucky enough to be able to enforce time limits of TV/netflix etc. They also aren't allowed youtube on their own, so never got onto the conversion ladder from crap to exploitative crap.

crucially they don't have tablets/phones whilst bored. TV is a treat, so boredom requires them to sit there and fucking day dream like the rest of us.

> being civil and participating in the political process.

This _is_ the part of the political process.

For example in the USA jan6th was part of the democratic process there. Not a good part, but its still part of it.
