    Software runs on processing power. Doesn’t matter if it’s mechanical, electrical or biological computing power.

    The important part is, that something is processing it.
    And although by now software development through abstraction feels disconnected from just specialised algorithms: everything will break down into numbers and some form of algorithm to process the information






  • Yeah, I’m having a hard time deciding about that.

    On the one hand I’m often in business trips and want to be at least able to recover my data easily if something happens.

    On the other hand getting the laptop stolen with all the data is a nightmare.

    Didn’t look into current solutions for quite some time though. As I’m currently waiting for a new laptop, this could be a good time to check something out.
    Anyone with some suggestions? (Will look into the encrypted FS OP recommended, but having options and opinions never hurts)

    Edit: ok, just realised that APFS is Apple File System. So that’s not gonna roll for me, as I’m on Linux and would like to have something that’s actually designed and developed for it. Don’t know anything about Linux APFS support, but I’m a bit traumatised by NTFS and anyway I don’t want to have anything to do with Apple

    Anyone with experience with encrypted LUKS and data recovery?
    Some buzzwords for options would also greatly help me
    Thanks for anything in advance!

    Yeah, if I test my software all is good as well. As soon as the customer does something, he finds bugs, because I didn’t thought about that situation.

    As the drug user in the end isn’t qualified enough, they should exactly test like that and not just what they think is right

    But maybe my analogy isn’t completely working in that case…

    Heroin withdrawal is shit, but compared to alcohol or benzos it’s at least not deadly. Also opiates are not hard on the body.

    The problem with opiates is mostly getting clean ones - and the money for it.

    In Switzerland they have a program, where they hand clean heroin to addicts and with a safe clean supply they can work, get a grip on their life again, and they start to reduce the dosage themselves after some time.

    The social stigma and the idea to punish someone out of addiction is obviously bullshit.
    People usually self medicate because of problems. So solving those problems is the right approach and not just taking away the crutch.

    Also the state is losing quite some money with the prohibition - on multiple fronts
