Something like this is rowhammer. Can it be exploited in a lab setting vs practically in the wild? Is fail2ban + WAF sufficient? How much network traffic is needed to remotely trigger the exploit in the field? How much inside knowledge of the system itself needs to be known?

These go from extreme edge cases to viable approaches over time, so it needs to be patched. I think the really messed up thing is the lack of communication from the Ubuntu team. If they have a rationale either way, that's fine. They may disagree on the severity, identified a problem in the fix, etc, but the lack of transparency is causing a loss of confidence in the team's abilities.

Did they reinvent subversion?

End users should be expected to care about security. They should not be the only guard rail, but they are part of the defense in depth plan.

You do know about all those security training courses HR makes your take every year that you skip over?

Does Ubuntu LTS really make sense as a non-workstation distro? Especially if you are using PPAs to enable functionality.

Not that deep archive isn't a valid option for the appropriate work load, but it has different effective costs.

Not sure what you mean. The marketing video shows pancake optical stacks and specs have mentioned OLED displays. While the marketing video attempts to play up an immersive fantastical reality, the experience will function like a Quest 3 or Apple Vision Pro, where there are external cameras that then get projected onto the internal screens.

The form factor itself is also a killer. Couldn't imagine doing anything besides using it as large private display for 2D games. You aren't going to be moving your head around quickly with just pressure on your temples to hold it in place.

Not sure where this lands functionality wise. I feel like it's most direct competition would be as a cheaper Apple Vision. You would need to pair it off with a Windows system for heavier productivity work most likely. Even though their OS is "android", it doesn't have the Google ecosystem behind it, let alone matured on that front. Media consumption on the go seems to be the other use case.

So, compare them to either XREALs plugged into a laptop/phone, or Apple Vision Pro I guess.

This seems to be reflected in their recent changes in how they track views on YouTube

A shared blind spot as noted at the bottom needs to be considered more often. In my day job, most of my coordination with others and now LLMs, is clarifying context and requirements. Claude is very happy to make assertions without the full picture in my experience, even when I give it as much context as I can.
