PostgREST is a standalone web server that turns your PostgreSQL database directly into a RESTful API. The structural constraints and permissions in the database determine the API endpoints and operations.

Next-Gen Frameworks Deliver Instant Performance: Marko (39ms), SolidStart (35ms), SvelteKit (38ms), and Nuxt (38ms) all achieve essentially instant First Contentful Paint in the 35-39ms range. This is 12 to 13 times faster than Next.js at 467ms.

While site downtime causes 9% permanent user abandonment, slow performance causes 28% permanent abandonment. That’s over 3x worse. Even more revealing: slowdowns occur 10x more frequently than outages, resulting in roughly 2x total revenue impact despite lower per-hour costs

L’esperimento mentale è stato inizialmente pubblicato da Less Wrong — un forum e blog su razionalità, psicologia e intelligenza artificiale in generale — nel luglio 2010 da un utente chiamato Roko. Al livello più base del tutto, l’esperimento mentale parla delle condizioni in cui sarebbe razionale per una futura super-intelligenza artificiale uccidere gli umani che non hanno contribuito alla sua creazione.

se una super-intelligenza decide le sue azioni per fare sì che siano quanto più positive possibili per il benessere degli esseri umani, allora non si fermerà mai perché le cose possono sempre andare un po’ meglio.

ora che lo avete letto, siete tecnicamente coinvolti in esso. Non avete più una scusa per non contribuire alla creazione di questa super-intelligenza artificiale e se scegliete di non farlo, sarete uno dei primi obiettivi dell’intelligenza artificiale.

Quando Roko ha pubblicato la sua teoria del basilisco su Less Wrong, Yudkowsky si è piuttosto spazientito, a tal punto da cancellare il post e vietare ogni tipo di discussione sul basilisco dal forum per cinque anni. Quando Yudkowsky ha spiegato le sue azioni sulla subreddit Futurology qualche anno dopo il post originale, ha affermato che l’esperimento mentale di Roko dava per scontato di riuscire a superare una serie di ostacoli tecnici nella teoria delle decisioni, e anche se ciò fosse possibile, Roko stava efficacemente diffondendo delle idee pericolose, proprio come i cattivi della storia di Langford.

Imagine if every time you got into your car, you had to manually approve the engine's use of oil, the tires' use of air, and the radio's use of electricity. It’s absurd, right? You’d set your preferences once, and the car would just work.

It Doesn't Actually Give Us Control: The illusion of choice is not choice. When the options are "Accept All" or "Spend Five Minutes in a Menu of Legalese," the system is designed to push you toward the path of least resistance.

Tesla’s ‘Full Self-Driving Supervised’ expansion is back firing as it exposes its shortcomings. Customers left without promised features are growing discontent and demanding to be compensated. It’s turning into a multi-billion-dollar iceberg of Tesla’s own making.

COLUMN "It's always DNS" is a long-standing sysadmin saw, and with good reason: a disproportionate number of outages are at their heart DNS issues. And so today, as AWS is still repairing its downed cloud as this article goes to press, it becomes clear that the culprit is once again DNS. But if you or I know this, AWS certainly does.
