No one has ever been safe. I would rephrase it as: "More and more people are becoming aware of their exposure".

So agent would have reached perfection. I'm not sure humans can create a machine capable of perfection. This is a philosophical question waiting for a definitive answer.

So the problem is people. Burn them all !

> 2. ... and when that inevitably fails, you... use a programming language?

Maybe it fails because you are trying to solve a problem with a configuration when it should be solved by a function implemented in the program you are trying to use.

Per latest available data, point of origin traces back approximately 13.8 billion years to a singular event designated "Big Bang". YMMV

As impressive as this setup may be, I'm still amazed at how slow this type of robot is, whether amateur or professional grade. I have no expertise in this field, but as an observer, the apparent progress in this area seems very limited. I guess my expectations are too high and my understanding of the problems to solve is too low.

Can't the board of directors be replaced by a board of AI ?

My point is not to say that swap should not be configured on a Linux system. On bare-metal machines, I personally always set a swap partition equal in size to the amount of RAM because I usually want to be able to put the machine into S4 (suspend to disk).

I don't consider swap to be emergency RAM storage. I know that the kernel will decide by itself to use swap even if it has plenty of available RAM and the swappiness threshold is not reached.

Nevertheless, my two decent laptops (one with 16 GB RAM, the other with 64 GB RAM) never swap, even with Docker Swarm and multiple stacks, multiple VMs, desktop activities, and gaming.

It's been a while since I last saw a physical machine actively swapping.

I understand that some limited hardware may need swap, but I can't see such hardware having a GPU with plenty of VRAM.

That said, hacking things is always fun :)

I'm very surprised, I run a docker swarm with multiple docker stacks on my 16GB RAM laptop which is also my main machine. i have multiple browsers each with multiple tabs. I also run multiple VM (Qemu/KVM) and even by gaming on top of all of that, I can not make it swap.

Edit: Typo

Does anyone these days really use swap for anything than S4 suspend ?

Docker Swarm sits between Compose and k8s and can be used on a single node if your needs are modest. I find Docker Swarm more reliable and easier to automate with a CI/CD pipeline than Compose, and it also provides health checks and other useful directives allowing you to minimize downtime, rollback when a deploy fails, and so on.
