V4V based, multiply redundant object store with decentralized CDN for PeerTube self-hosters. Removes 99% of the bandwidth costs of media hosting, as well as the storage costs of online hosting.

Scored some good year contract server deals on black friday to set this up.

Using SeaweedFS and PeerTube. Open Source all the way down

Happy to help anyone wanting to setup their own SeaweedFS or CDN federation for PeerTube as well, decentralization is the way.

It bugs me when people bemoan a release of an emulated game.

Look, you want preservation of old games? Emulation is the way to do it.

Sure, you can go to ROM sites and download those games for free. But ROM sites aren’t exactly legal, and some of us would rather buy the game. And if you don’t think ROM sites are risky, be thankful you don’t have a parole officer.

Questions at the end

>"...at an economy-wide level, AI is so far generating more jobs than it's taking.

>"What we found was there was a five-times increase since 2017 in terms of the number of AI-related jobs that were available," says Amit Singh, from Mandala.

>According to their analysis, the number of jobs in AI doubled in 2023 alone — often in the same areas thought to be prone to cuts.

>Mandala rates telemarketers, tertiary educators, events professionals, intelligence and policy analysts, legal professionals, counsellors, supply chain workers and insurance clerks as among the most vulnerable workers.

>"The jobs that are most exposed [to] AI generally tend to also create opportunities for people who can learn those particular skills," he says.

>Based on snapshot research of Australian job ads, Singh estimates that tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of AI-related jobs have already been created this year."

1) Are these all these created jobs "real" jobs that will stick around? Or are they things like "prompt engineer"?

2) I've yet to see an AI that can reliably teach across everything a mathematician might teach at university. What tertiary educators are at risk, and how did this person figure it out?
