I would say the takeaway is that it cannot be expected that the majority of businesses hire an IT security expert (let alone multiple, + technicians) whose job it is to keep on top of CVEs and apply updates to a variety of embedded devices. IMO it must be a legal requirement, which is now coming (e.g. NIS2), but it will take time.

Thank you for saying this. It's quite frustrating to read some comments here that have obviously lost touch with the reality of the vast majority of people and businesses across the world.

I upvoted the post because they make a valid point and 99% is indeed factually incorrect hyperbole.

EU chip industry: best I can do is supply chips that are in 99% of industrial equipment and vehicles. Also supply the only machines in the world that enable leading edge lithography processes.

Extremely strong performance from India’s Skyroot with their Vikram-1 rocket. I can say that many in the space industry are looking for new launch capacity to LEO.

You can block the web user interface and effectively block Polymarket for 99.9% of users. No ban is ever 100% effective.

I've written about this elsewhere but I predict there will be a significant secondary market for repurposing parts of datacenter GPUs (for example, RAM chips) by desoldering them and soldering them onto new PCBs that fit PC/consumer use cases.

You're absolutely right.

> Git repositories were never extended to version everything developers build with in the AI era. [... more fatalistic verbiage ...] A system that cannot be retrofitted for what's ahead.

Two paragraph later:

> Entire will be based on three key components: a git-compatible database [...]

So which one is it?

I predict there's going to be a niche opening up for companies to recycle the expensive parts of all these compute hardware that AI companies are currently buying and will probably be obsolete/depreciated/replaced in the next 2-5 years. The easiest example is RAM chips. There will be people desoldering those ICs and putting them on DDR5 sticks to resell to the general consumer market.

> It's only a "desirable feature" to the nihilistic maniacs that run the markets as it's only beneficial to them.

... and which forces do you think are the core concept of "the American experiment"?

You would likely need at least one per orbital plane, of which there are about 24.

This looks pretty neat, thanks!

Being open source is technically not required to verify this. It’s possible to prove or disprove security claims by reverse engineering, and iOS specifically is already a popular target for professional/academic RE.

Of course, a hardware switch is always more secure.
