love the idea! I would have registered if it weren't using passkey. is there a reason you chose this for user verification? I've never used it and am hesitant to adopt technologies that give chrome more control over the browser market

I'm a novice at nginx and using modules. how do I figure out if the nginx docker images that I use are effected by this? it looks like the default image uses `debian:bookworm-slim`. is it safe to assume that the compiled version in that upstream image isn't using any additional modules?

> The issues affect nginx compiled with the ngx_http_v3_module (not compiled by default) if the "quic" option of the "listen" directive is used in a configuration file.

I second Hyperion and Neuromancer -- both are amazing book and a great representation of modern and classic sci-fi

I love this paper! I first read it years ago in college. The Botany of Desire is also a great read if you're into the study of plants and civilization

Well written article, thanks! I think some of your critics need to look up the term "veiled criticism"

Right! I had a similar thought: the article appeared to be building to an interesting conclusion then ended abruptly... One follow-on paragraph could have easily explored autodidactic methods, through tools like youtube or open online courses, and how they have catalyzed an area of learning that previously didn't exist -- ie easy entry courseware is orthogonal learning model from the traditional education model.

IMHO, the only thing that is going to disrupt higher education in the US is a change in the federal student loan system. Otherwise, the money is going to keep flowing and those institutions will have little motivation to adapt to survive

edit:

Good article! Thanks for sharing
