not only does he burn through cash, he burns through resources making life worse now for everybody: AI rivals crypto in resource waisting while not contributing at all to any improvements. I fail to see "brighter future" for us through AI as it is energy-intensive, unsustainable endeavor for which we are woefully unprepared both materially (energy efficiency, semiconductor manufacturing/recycling, etc) and psychologically (ethics etc.). Yeah, grand on paper, terrible in reality

putin said same thing about tanks, long range rockets and planes... Ukraine got all of the above and nothing followed. Those are hollow threats of a desperate maniac who's cornered himself
lack of "social intelligence". They mostly rose through the ranks because their technical (or business) skill. They never had to act for benefit of others to advanve
at this point all major chipmakers have proven that innovation is dead, nobody cares about "boring" fratures. We can finally take a step back and reflect on why did we end up here
Best AI rant hands-down. I can agree with every word there.
I've got predecessor to this Dewalt and it's been good. I did build workbench around it when stationary, otherwise it's quite portable and useful for small projects
funny thing is: "Eternity" looks like it shows totals for my upvotes on posts/comments but not showing what those are
thanks for the tech details. It sucks that there's no endpoint for upvotes (yet). I find favorites/saved and upvoted to be distinctly different at least the way I use it. Upvotes communicate to me (and others) that content is of value or that I agree with it. However Saved/Favorite may mean that I disagree with content but I'd like to keep reference for future times. That latter is a private info too so nobody benefits from me "saving" that content other than myself.
TLDR; I'd have to get used to hitting upvote and "save" buttons on content of interest and learn to filter through my "saved" stuff while devs are comming up with endpoints for upvotes.
thank you for such a detailed response. I would love to contribute however at the moment my capacities are rather limited but otherwise I'd be willing to add sqlite adapter. From your description it sounds like currently architecture is narrowly locked on PostgreSQL features. In my daily job I love PostgreSQL for big apps and stacks but I'm also aware how "hungry" PG can be, which is why I'm wondering whether it's "too big of a hammer" for this particular problem. Also, setting up single service is easier to novices vs maintaining several. Docker compose is nice but it has it's limitations.
@mgdigital, first thing I'be noticed: reliance on "heavier" database stack (pg + redis), at least from the first glance at docker-compose. My suggestion would be to have an option for minimalist setup with sqlite and without redis if possible. That would work better for those of us flying with minimal hardware (rpi, old PC and such).
some crypto learned to be efficient, others did not. We still do have crypto-mining botnets. Crypto remains to be useless to humanity and very profitable for few. Same with AI. Same with stock market. Instead of producing something of value we keep on burning through resources while selected few enjoy bonfire others have to fight to stay alive...
