Sometimes I think it could be someone who was forced to embed the backdoor but was smart enough to make it detectable by others without raising suspicion by the entity that was forcing him.

Isn't the main problem that all the jobs are located at central spots? There is a huge amount of land where people can live. But building a cheap house at a location where you can't find a job leads to nothing.
There is also a kind of hype of homesteading. But you should not underestimate the huge amount of work it takes to keep yourself alive. So for most that is not an option.

Hidden alcoholism is a huge problem.
There are estimates that 70% of alcohol addiction is hidden.

While I think freedom is good, I also think there are more people destroying their lives with drugs than people who can regulate their use.
I've seen so many people waste their life on weed and alcohol that I can't be very happy about this news.

Yes, they can prove ownership of an art peace but can not prove the art peace even exists.

I am still very sceptical about this because it looks very slow, but it seems to work.

I think this is a wise answer. Thank you.

Some days ago ICP showed it can run ML on a blockchain.
While this is nice and does show that distributed computing is a real possibility I also don't think that anyone is going to switch from Amazon/Azure to ICP any time soon.
But I must say the idea is really nice. It's very easy to develop Actor model based software and deploy it on ICP.

The difference between opinions in this thread is interesting.
I think it's mainly because some see a punishment as revenge and others as correction.
But, as user publius_0xf3 is showing, revenge does not work. The victims don't get their money back.
If this sentence is used as correction I also think it does not work. Would such a correction really take 25 years? His life is over. I don't see how such a long time is helpful to him, to his victims and to society.

Self driving is a bit of a stretch here. There are already a lot locations around the world where autonomous vehicles are driving, even in the Nederlands.
For example in the Netherlands there is a container terminal that has been using autonomous trucks for decades. And since 1999 there have been autonomous busses in Rotterdam.
Yes they are self driving, but not as smart as self driving means today.

"The earliest computers were open sandboxes of creativity ... But later generations of devices, especially smartphones and tablets, are increasingly walled gardens"
Exactly what Alan Kay has been saying for years.

Why? You can rate limit the business logic but still show the user the default flow.
For example: if a user is requesting a reset password link 10 times a minute you can just send the link one time but display everytime that a reset link was sent by email.

I expected a much higher price. While $190000 is steep it doesn't seem that much for such printer.
For example: Nexa3D ships SLS printers for over $500000

"Of course there are better formats, but all these sources aren’t able to agree on some successful format."
It's the same with csv. They come in all kinds of formats because nobody agreed on the standard. Comma separated, semicolon separated, pipe separated, escaped, not escaped.
Everytime I have to deal with csv I first have to figure out how to parse it in code.
So I think the author is right, we must agree on a better format because that is what friends do.
You are also right because it's an illusion to think that this is going to change anythime soon. But who knows..
