From article: ads are also running on: HBO Max, X, YouTube, Amazon Prime Video, LinkedIn and Meta, as well as cable television channels.

And what choice do these platforms really have? They either run ice ads, or risk getting on the bad side on the administration.

Historical equivalent.

Sometimes you should say no. We’ve ceded power to corporations in the society so that they are essentially the most powerful thing next to the government. (potentially more powerful than the government in some cases) if they are not willing to say no, that is a problem

So? Risk it. Make a (very small) stand. We're talking companies that are almost monopolies or at the very least duopolies.

I agree on principle, while at the same time I'm fairly sure the common employees at these respective companies are probably thankful that their job security is not impacted by their employer taking a (very small) stand.

Rate limits are primarily applied to unauthenticated users, open source projects and business accounts have none/much higher tresholds

Only norway has significant oil revenue - sweden and denmark specifically are primarily economies driven by a highly educated workforce and well regulated job markets - Lego, Novo, Maersk are all exemples of this kinds of companies depending on those socalled big government programmes to produce highly educated and specialised workers.

Of the scandinavian countries, only Norway has money, Dragsted is danish.

Looking things up:

1) Norway oil + mining, which finance a large service sector that "is the bulk of the economy" (except not really: it would be 90% smaller without the resources)

2) Sweden mining + chemicals, which finance a large service sector around that

3) Finland mining + forestry, a large chemicals sector, which finance a large service sector around them like in Norway

They all do large scale resource extraction, which then supports the economy on top of them.

They all have oil money. Frankly the closest country to them that doesn't have a large resource base is Belgium, and they only have a service sector because they used to have a large resource extraction base recently that is dying (still not quite dead). Now they're ... well, pretty much their business is becoming government (they have a lot of huge governments and large international organisations on their territory. EU, NATO, SWIFT, Benelux, at least 10 Belgian govenerments, ...)

This is what people don't seem to realize. This is how it works. The question, of course, is how to make it work without resources. Even the Ottoman arabs were doing fine in economy until the west conquered them and decided Jesus demands we force them to stop the resource they were exploiting on a large scale (black slaves, not that they didn't exploit European, Indian or even Chinese slaves, but in much smaller numbers)

As you mention, one can also make it not work even with resources, as in some places outside Europe. (Ottomans were Turks & would get upside that you put them on the same footing as Arabs, Turkiye has a diversified econ today, was never properly invaded etc)

It's not really about services, is my understanding..

Music, Merchandise and the third M I can't recall.(Not movies, they are too uh context-dependent-- not precisely centralized because Hollywood processes are far from that)

Since financial or even governancial services can be thought of as extractive, what a country needs are cross-class meaning-agnostic exports that foreclose getting cynical about "creating value"

Ah.. got it! Meals

Sorry programmers!

Sweden is considered a socdem >> benelux+rest of nordics thanks to ABBA & IKEA meatballs, even though the reality is flipped.. UK is going down the toilet because her last "comparative advantage" of music production has been .. braindrained

Ottomans were not Turkic. Well, somewhat, sure. But, only after the many genocides that spread after the collapse of the Ottoman empire did Turkey become majority Turkic.

I should have said "people who think of themselves as Turks (but are more often than not Anatolian/Greek/Caucasian in genetics/culture)"

Also the rural urban etc divides

You forgot the word 'oil' between 'has' and 'money'.

Havnt docker been cncf member for ages?

Anyone know the backstory of why Georg Wendt is on the memorial? He died in 1948 and atleast the wikipedia page doesn't outline whether he was murdered or related to the nazis?

Yeah, its the same underlying functionality that Depot, Docker Cloud Build and also Offload uses under the hood to switch the context to a remote host: https://www.docker.com/products/docker-offload/

While I generally agree with the author on code over tools, the article could have benefitted from some concrete ways that this could have potentially been done somewhat securely by sandboxing, enforcing zero trust, network segmentation, and all the other known controls we've developed over the last decade.

I love the optimism of this space, but fear that the "security is a sham" attitude will bite us all in the ass down the line.

The dispossed is stil the one book which had the biggest impact on how I see the world and its flaws.
