I know some people frown on having multiple processes within a container but there are scenarios where it is needed. I've used both openrc and runit for that purpose and runit has been the simplest to setup and use.

Do you believe the current medical research is held back by the price limitations and if we just infuse more money, we'll find cure for many more diseases ?

Even if we consider that, we'll reach the same position as today because if only rich can afford medicine, the market will price that in and it's customer who can barely afford the medicine will shift from middle class to upper middle class and so on.


> Public transit is a good business model if you don't have to compete with government subsdized roads and you don't have government limits on what you can charge

Without subsidized roads, its easy for deep pockets to offer exorbitant prices for land and monopolize the roads. Anyone not planning to charge high prices for usage will be held off by high acquisition prices at "market" rates.

There's only so much land and roads possible to a given location, privatized roads is like giving default monopoly. It will turn out just like the isp situation, only worse.


Doesn't it mean Google will collect the app ids of all installs on all devices whether they are signed into an account or not.

I'm not naive to think its not happening today, whats probably new is them admitting to it.

How long does it take them to use that info to drop ban hammer on the user accountd for using apps like newpipe and hide behind reasons like violation of TnCs.


Yes we have banking websites but they are increasingly moving to an auth model where you have to enter an otp generated in the app but the app refuses to work on non-verified devices.

They didn't say no changes. They are just saying we'll address the concerns of hobbyists and students.

Lets not celebrate prematurely and let us wait for more details on whats actually changing both technically and process wise. We should demand more clarity and should not wait to discover it after the implementation at which point it is hard and nearly impossible to push back against.

We don't want to be in a situation where they technically make it possible but make it practically impossible to install apps outside playstore.


I think you are correct. Clearly, they got spooked, but not enough to make full reversal. I am actually mildly optimistic. It has been a while since I saw a minority ( not that many people are aware of it outside HN circles ) shake a bigger company to a hesitation.

> The angry social media narratives have been running wild from people who insert their own assumptions

There may have been exaggerations in some cases but these hand wavy responses like "you can still do X but you just can't do Y and Z is now mandatory" or "you can always use Y" is how we got to this situation in the first place.

This is just the next evolution of SafetyNet & play integrity API. Remember how many said use alternatives. Not saying safetynet is bad but I don't believe their intentions were to stop at just that.


If there is an alternative software that can run on the device without going through extraordinary hoops, I may agree that it is licensed.

If there is no other alternative, buying hardware and licensing software are not two different steps. Its just buying a device.


One perpetuates the other. If you have k8s, you are tempted to use microservice architecture and if you have microservices then k8s makes them look manageable.

I suspect both of them will go down together if/when they do.


I guess the complaint is that with resources being immutable, the only standard & recommended way to deal with a problem is to take the resource out.

I know that is the whole point of sheep vs pets but it somehow became the "did you restart the pc" version for operations.


There's only small parts of the typically used parts of the kubernetes api that are immutable and those have good reasons. So I'm still not really sure what issue you're describing.
