I have a partially renovated little village house with a small backyard and shed about 19km from Fugueira da Foz Portugal I will sell you for the €24k I have stuck in it. The interior needs doing but the roof is new… near Montemor-o-velho…

The tax is 40€ (forty euros) a year. South facing king roof slope ideal for panels and south facing varanda over the backyard.

Also, your observations about “east” fail to account for places like Japan, South Korea, and in terms of trust, I think you find high trust in places like Singapore, but only from a certain set of empowered locals, ditto Dubai… But your intended generalism is perhaps Eastern Europe?

Well, if you are ultimately responsible for your own government and it’s mess, you realize that it’s a losing proposition to simply be cynical about your government.

Maybe it’s time to fix your government instead of acting disengaged and cynical?

In other news: people in corrupt places have low faith in their systems.

America certainly has its problems and corruption, but if you look at what are considered the least corrupt nations on earth, say Finland, you find higher trust in society and government etc.

So I’ll contend that trauma traumatizes people, aka you are stating a tautology

No way!

It literally says a well regulated militia. Fact.

Spare me your creative interpretation masquerading as originalism

I think exokernels and isokernels solve many of these issues where containers are currently used, check the Ocaml community for examples.

They run on hardware.

Ultimately, there needs to be a singular scheduling system running on hardware and a singular HAL-like driver layer, and exo or iso kernels deliver just that, vs lxe containers provided by os services.

The sizes are also quite impressive.

I don’t think so. I run 2 dedicated-cpu cloud instances that will thrash any load you throw at it high availability, and I can spin up an entire 3-node production cluster in a few minutes with good old Ansible and some cloud provider module.

Kibernetes brings me overhead and wastes system resources.

I already have infrastructure as code.

Why would I want to containerize systems I already have YAML to describe?

People forget they real hardware has to run this stuff, and layers os schedulers are not helpful.

Look at the disaster of fibers threads and processes already!

How does it beat the pants off Ansible?

Merely making scriptable infrastructure doesn’t require kubernetes or containers… Ansible or it’s ilk will do just fine. Deploy cloud instances like you currently deploy containers. Save money, get better performance, have real networking.

*i have used kubernetes and understand how to use it as intended. I feel like I am missing the motivation for it’s current widespread usage in web apps

“So you want to run a bunch of stuff on one computer, why?”

In a quest to get closer to the metal, Kubernetes keeps you far away, which is the opposite of what any production service should want.

What is the purpose of adding layers when uni-kernels and eco-kernels give you better isolation and better performance?

Your cloud provider already runs your virtual machines OS on a hardware hypervisor. Then running Kubernetes on top of the OS and then a zillion containers on it is a recipe for poor performance.

What is the logic here that I am clearly missing?

Cloud providers native Kubernetes stacks don’t improve performance or pricing, compared to their cloud compute instances virtual machines and a dedicated virtual machine per would-be-container that thankfully doesn’t need to now share processing resources with others.

What gives? Why on earth would anyone run production processes in Kubernetes?

Yes, it does.

The entire second amendment here: “ A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.”

Notice the first phrase. Absolutely nothing here says “every Joe wacko can have military grade arms in case they want to overthrow the government “

Tell me it’s originalism to interpret the words above in any way other than what it reads as: a description of state militias.

You think the minimum wage is unconstitutional?

That’s pretty extreme.

You cannot realistically expect 21st century America to agree with you.

If the constitution DID oppose a minimum wage, and it doesn’t, I would say ditch the constitution. Common sense.

Thing is, all this legalese mumbo-jumbo is a racket and a scam. The constitution is written in plain English in a rather common vernacular.

So-called “conservatives” have hijacked a silly notion of knowing the original intentions of the founding fathers and delivering an unbiased truthful channeling of that into a winning strategy. To the rest of us it’s rather obviously a scam.

Per the topic of this particular judgment, they agreed to hear a challenge to a non-law!

The Obama era Clean Power Act is not law!

This court went out of their way to steal authority thst congress specifically placed in the EPA and based their judgement of overreach on a non-law proposed bill from over a decade ago.

I allege that they are corruptly serving the Federalist Society agenda and deliberately dismantling environmental regulatory bodies for clear goals the Federalist Society maintains

… based on a proposed bill that never became law. The Supreme Court based their judgement on the Obama era Clean Power Act which never became law. That’s how out-of-their-way to cause trouble this court went.

This Supreme Court is going out of its way to be destructive and cause harm.
