I won't lie, some of my infrastructure decisions are driven by the consideration that by 2030 large parts of the world will be in a hot war, with nation states specifically aiming to knock out each-other's energy and computing infrastructure for economic disruption.

I am, hopefully, completely off my rocker on this one.

@monsieuricon some could argue this is already happening, certainly it is in many regions of the world

@monsieuricon im kinda like that but it's fueled half by reason, half by pure anxiety about not being able to do what i love

i have generally built my entire computing life around the fact that every single piece should be able to get a drop in replacement maintained by only one person, or something close enough that would be easy enough to switch to, or at the very least,something i could switch with another existing mostly compatible system. every single piece.

bonus is it's very hackable, if i don't like one piece, i can either fork it and change it, or write my own replacement

@monsieuricon same, and for me it mostly means bringing things physically close to me, and make them more resistant to being offline.

I like what the friends at @modal have been doing, and Iā€™m aligned with their values

@dme Keeping things distributed, for the most part. AKA "returning to the original ARPANet design goals."
