>>3608013The biggest is that each user only hosts a portion of the data, so you [may] have to get data from multiple hosts and assume they will be stable. It's the same issue as seeding Torrents and having them appear and disappear.
It's a nice alternative to the "primary" protocol and can act as a backup service, but relying on it exclusively would break everything.
Sounds nice on paper, but as the image you posted implies, it's mostly nice marketing.

Also, superglue would be superior to the usual thermal goo pads because it's much thinner, which as we know by the distance term in the unit, has a great effect on the thermal throughput.
If you apply the glue/paste in a layer that's half as thick, you double the amount of heat that can flow through for any given temperature difference. CA glue is usually very thin and has a low surface tension, and it would allow the heatsink to sit tighter to the CPU than the stock heating pad.
The only problem of superglue is that it's brittle and will probably crack and fall off from the thermal expansion.

>>3674429https://superuser.com/questions/1300797/how-do-sd-cards-implement-their-end-of-life-write-protection1
I've done a bit of research and I've heard of the SD card end-of-life behavior (not really sure what else to call it) where SD cards and microSD cards make themselves read-only to avoid data loss. When I first heard of it, I thought it was terribly clever. Now I'm not so sure.
Some background: I had a microSD which lasted 2 years of heavy raspberry pi use before putting itself in write-protect mode. I used dd to move the whole os and filesystem onto my replacement card. Within a few days of usage, I realized that this card had write-protected itself too. I thought I had terrible luck, until my second backup card did the same almost immediately.
This troubled me, so I've since let my raspberry sit off. But I've begun to wonder how the SD card knows to write-protect itself. If it keeps a count of the write-cycles, and I used dd to make an image of the whole disk, then I may have crippled my SD cards by tricking them into thinking they were old. But I can't find the implementation of the end-of-life behavior anywhere. Does anyone know how it works? I'd like to try to undo it but the write-protection seems to be implemented on a very low level. I can't even access the /dev/sdX using sudo.
If I'm right and it keeps some kind of write-cycle tally, this is more than a little frustrating. It means that the SD card hasn't actually died – it's just a precautionary measure. While this is nice, I'd like to use it all the way to actual death, as I'm making regular backups.
With that as my long-winded background, does anyone know how the end-of-life behavior is implemented, and is there any way I can undo an accidental triggering of the behavior?
8a8c8b6e No.3674454
According to HowStuffWorks, memory cells in micro SD cards can undergo up to 10,000 write-and-erase cycles before wearing out. Since 10,000 write cycles are the equivalent of writing and erasing the card's content daily for nearly 30 years, memory cards are generally long-lasting.

https://www.quora.com/Why-do-SSDs-and-SD-cards-run-out-of-rewrite-cycles-in-a-few-years-while-internal-device-memory-doesntSSDs and SD cards use a completely different memory technology called flash memory. Flash doesn’t lose its contents when power is removed. However, the physics of flash, which involves forcing electrons to quantum-tunnel through a solid barrier (crazy!) allow it to retain the electrical charge in its cells, but cause the barrier to degrade a tiny bit every time the cells need to be erased and rewritten. Eventually the barrier becomes leaky enough that the cell can no longer be erased successfully. In most cases flash will continue to function normally for thousands of cycles. With proper wear levelling across the entire device by its internal firmware, it’s usually a lot more than a “few” years before wear out actually becomes a problem.
System memory used for active programs uses a completely different technology called dynamic RAM. It needs to be able to be read and written much faster than flash in order to not keep the CPU waiting, because programs are executing directly from that memory. It needs to be possible to individually read and write single bytes repeatedly, at high speed, and without degradation of the device due to the high rate of change of memory contents.
Flash typically can only be written or read in fairly large blocks of at least a few hundred to a few thousand bytes at a time, and is not rewritten nearly as frequently when used as long-term storage. While RAM can be used more flexibly and is faster to access, it is also “leaky” and must be constantly refreshed using additional power to retain its data. (The chip reads its own data and rewrites it again during these refresh cycles, so dynamic RAM is actually constantly rewriting itself.) Once the power is removed, though, the charge quickly drains away and it loses all of its contents. While this of course makes it unsuitable for long term storage, the lack of the barriers that hold the charge indefinitely in flash means that DRAM has no physical degradation that is caused by the read and write process.

>Write amplification (WA) is an undesirable phenomenon associated with flash memory and solid-state drives (SSDs) where the actual amount of information physically written to the storage media is a multiple of the logical amount intended to be written. SD cards typically don't use any sort of wear leveling, so you can easily grind one spot on the memory card to destruction. Typically the file system table gets corrupted because it is written to every time you write anything anywhere else - and then all your files are as good as gone.

AI can't reliably produce correct and functional code, pictures, prose, etc. because of a fundamental issue called the grounding problem.
In linguistics, "grounding" means the thing which connects words and semantics to something in the real world, some purpose or real idea which is not itself just words. Without grounding, all words and ideas simply cross-references to each other in a loop and do not actually refer to anything.
For AI, the grounding problem means the AI can cross-reference data but has no idea what it means, so it has no understanding what e.g. a piece of code should be doing. Therefore it can mash two pieces of code together because they happen to be closely related, and the result may or may not work, but the AI doesn't care.
When Open AI was asked the question "If you have two blue balls and two red balls, and you remove one red ball, how many balls do you have left?" - the AI responded that there's two balls left because one ball is blue, therefore there's three balls left. It gave both answers and reasoned the solution has to do with the color of the balls. That's because it was simply mashing together similar examples involving colored balls without understanding what the words mean.
c8f63711 No.3683862
The proponents of "big data AI" argue that given enough training data and enough examples, the AI can learn all the relationships that exist between the data and somehow extract meaning out of the rules that emerge. In reality, that doesn't give the AI any grounding. It still has no idea what it's talking about.
If the AI did have an idea - some direct experience of the subject it is dealing with - it would not need petabytes of data to extrapolate what a "cat" is in order to draw a cat. If it actually understood the basic concept of animals, it would only need one example.
