I very rarely see actual candles being lit anymore. It's almost always fake candles with led lights.

Exactly I don't get why we can't figure out and prioritize allowing fish to pass around the dams.

Firecracker can be used for sandboxing. I'm not currently using the Pi + Firecracker combination but I think it's a very useful one. But the best sandbox solution probably depends on what you want to do.

I find this idea that we need to go through hell to reach salvation to be such a common trope. An unhelpful one. It affects how we see relationships and mental health too.

Maybe we should seek out the good things directly and not act as if the bad things are somehow going to purify us.

I think there are scenarios, however (un)likely that will lead us to this point. Imaging them and spreading such ideas can make that more likely.

I think the point of stories like these is to accept that the world is too complex to fit into a story but we can try to fit a part of it anyway and we might learn something from it or at least get an interesting experience.

Also, set up formulas for calculating speed, torque, forces etc, of each system.

Then create a modular simulation library and point and click simulator where all the component variants are covered so that the user can piece new systems together using those components.

Yeah I agree and I think code forges as well as AI harnesses are kinda the killer apps of this (relatively short) era.

I think once we figure out how to tighten the loop of user feedback, expert analysis, automatic/static verification and AI generation then technology is going to make another leap.

I've tried both incus and firecracker. Both seem to work well after initial script setup. I've got the impression that firecracker should be a fairly safe option for such use cases.

I think these SFRs are basically indoor blimps.

And yet all this power in the hands of the very few are only there because the rest of us don't know any better than coordinating for their benefit rather than coordinating in any other way.

> places like India

I had the impression that India is quickly turning rich enough to say no to things like this.

I've used Interrail every time I want to travel a longer distance across Europe by train. Spares me some of the stress of dealing with interruptions since I can often just hop on the next train. Unless it's fully booked...
