This ain't AI... This is the haphazardly thrown together product photos you see on amazon, which just plasters a few stock photos together with the product.

With the growth of Kubernetes, it's getting very feasible even for smaller companies to rent their own colocation in a datacenter, shove their own servers into the racks and run the company's own private cloud.

We did the math at my current employer, and AWS was roughly 20x as expensive as buying your own servers over a 5 year period, including the datacenter costs. Of course this also means you have to take on more responsibility yourself, like swapping hardware if it breaks, and cabling the rack yourself... But nothing that makes up for the 20x price difference.

I think Sybil Ramkin from Terry Pratchett's "Guards! Guards!" has Daenerys beat.

While "MØ" is her initials, it's actually also a word in Danish for "Maiden". It's an old word, not used commonly.

The Google Translate text-to-speak is fairly accurate: https://translate.google.com/?sl=da&tl=en&text=M%C3%B8&op=translate

Ørsted is also pronounced fairly accurately: https://translate.google.com/?sl=da&tl=en&text=%C3%98rsted&op=translate

"Møl" is the Danish word for "Moth", the Google Translate text-to-speech pronunciation is pretty good:

"Øh" is actually how we spell and pronounce the Danish equivalent of "uh" or "uhm".

These are great points, but there is something more that phones have going for them.

All modern phones are full-disk encrypted by default, and can be remote wiped. I think this is only the case for Mac laptops, but not for Linux and Windows.

So if your phone is stolen, it's not really a risk of the thief having your password manager and your 2FA at the same time, but rather can they get in to your phone and then password manager and 2FA before you can trigger the remote wipe.

Unless the attacker is sophisticated enough to mirror the whole disk and attack it offline.

  • A fan in the background, cool
  • TV in the background, cool
  • Children playing in the background, cool
  • Music in the background, cool
  • a dripping water faucet in the background, drives me utterly insane
  • Music on repeat, drives me insane

I too am a bit speechless that two companies get to censor what all stores are allowed to sell.

Sweden and Denmark (and probably the rest of Scandinavia) has Kex which is somewhat similar
