Know who else has access to tax payer records, every IRS employee. Stop trying to make this like “oh my gosh I can’t believe anyone should have such access “. I trust Elon more than any IRS employee.

Seems like an Apache Licensed early clone of Teleport. Nice job.

Consistency. Small discrepancies between environments.
Abstraction. Not assuming too much that you code yourself in a corner, but also not abstracting away so much that the code is difficult to work with.
Industry standard tools that have strongly opinionated built in paradigms (I would include terraform, ansible, etc.). I feel like the tools of future ought to be general purpose programming language frameworks just to avoid this, too many times I either can’t do something, or have to hack together something utterly convoluted, that could have easily been done if the tool was a framework and I could have just thrown in some Go or Python.

This will age like milk.
Highly doubt someone in military PR is doing the 4d chess involved with making this quote while also being in the search grid and not informed:
"While no direct threats to the installation have been identified, we can confirm multiple instances of unidentified drones entering the airspace above Naval Weapons Station Earle," Bill Addison, public affairs officer for the naval station, said in a statement to ABC News.
They’d just say nothing was seen, or it was normal flight ops, or make up a training mission.
The military doesn’t re-enforce the reason for public panic or admit they aren’t omnipotent unless they really don’t know.
I think you are underestimating how compartmentalized the government is.
The best way I have found is to setup keepalived -> pgbouncer -> Postgres. Use repmgr to manage replication and barman for backups. Setup a VIP with keepalived with a small script that checks if the server is primary. You loose about 7-9 pings during a failover, have keepalived check about every 2 seconds and flip after 3 consecutive failures.
I don’t understand the title, it’s seems to be completely unrelated to the article. Godot is a game engine, the article is about AI companies.

Garbage hit piece.

Sources please. I would say this certainly not "fringe" theory.
