Specifically, if you're serving it as a "Model as a Service" business you need a license. Other uses do not.

Prompt injection in hardware! What could possibly go wrong?

TLDR for those who gave up reading:

The distributed repos and "commit-then-push" metaphor might be due for a replacement since we're always online anyways and repos grow larger and larger. Perhaps using VFS where all files are always instantly available with copy-on-write semantics.

There are several players working on systems that work on thousands of commits per second scale, some based on Git and others not.

Love to hear more about the Git implementation. In using S3, are you going the walgit route or more like git-remote-s3?

Would be interesting to see how much a PTP-aware switch would impact the jitter, and whether 802.1AS is possible.

Truly loved it. Hated that Microsoft killed it.

From what I can deduce from the release notes and the linked documentation, it can still be enabled?

And it relates to Windows and Linux only, and using the TPM.

My guess is that unreliable TPMs made it risky to have this enabled by default.

Inside the pods it makes no sense, but I do enable it on some memory-constrained worker nodes. Note that the kubelet by default refuses to start if the machine has any swap at all.

Getting it from source is as easy as `go install github.com/minio/minio@latest` if you have a recent Go.

In addition your favorite Linux distribution probably has it as from-source builds already.

For a container image you could try making one from Alpine or Wolfi.

Ah, DigiCash! I was really optimistic on this concept in my student days - one local bank even had a PoC with digital cash.

This is exactly how the physical representation of money works as well.

The central bank controls how many bills are in circulation, and the central bank regularly expires old bills and coins.

Yeah, I know of one example where idea was actually created and pitched to media outlets.

They did not like the idea. They very much more like the idea of owning the customer and keeping the customer paying subscriptions.

I also know of a media outlet which incentivizes customer to go from credit card payment to automated bank transfers, since credit cards expire every x years but the bank transfer goes on forever.
