I don’t even know how he’s still a doctor with how much bullshit he talks.

In my former life, I spend a few years working for a Contacting company - we were expensive and only hired real talent. Rigorous testing for anyone before the job interview even took place. We were expensive as f*ck. Gen-X owner. Nobody took our bids on RFP's seriously.
Never once saw one of our bids on a project get picked up by the big boys or state government.
Not once. They scoffed.
"We can hire 30 people from Palmer group for that!!!"
- 64 Year Old Boomer Department Head
(Palmer Group was a well known Jeet-Farm).
We were rolling in money, despite having never, once ever won a bid.
Our job was to show up after the "cheap labor" created a four-alarm fire, and fix it.
And we charged those same 64 year old fat boomers through the nose to do it.
They'd rather pay twice - once for a shit job and then a premium to fix it - than just pay people to do good work up front.
I say it again: Fucking boomers.

Tindra@TindrasGrove@infosec.exchange (2026-07-23 06:57:39) I’m gonna need everyone in security to internalize this.
Hell, my local country fair (y’know, the place where you can submit your veggies to go on display and get judged and get ribbons and shit) is requiring online registration.
Guess how many people that’s locking out? How many of the people whose submissions are what keep the exhibitions going don’t have emails or cell phones?
If your solution doesn’t work for my friend who can only be reached via landline phone or mail, it doesn’t work. ---Attachments--- image: https://media.infosec.exchange/infosec.exchange/media_attachments/files/116/965/864/567/106/093/original/b46cf34c0f07ca82.png

(eval 'Toast)@toast@donotsta.re (2026-07-23 06:27:39) the needs of most people are 90+% similar, so efficiency looks like applying economies of scale to these needs to require fewer resources
this is just true, in fact capitalism has come to the same conclusion, which is one of the reasons centralization is so common
unfortunately once you go in this direction you end up with secondary failure conditions
the capitalist one is very well-understood: since it demands growth, once you have met those needs, you need to find a way to extract additional value out of people, even if the whole planet is your userbase, so you have to keep changing stuff and making things nobody needs and get everyone to play along and pay along
even if we were to eliminate this, this same centralization also creates a horribly fragile system : global trade between specialized hubs is efficient, but when a canal is blocked the whole world feels it; resource distribution is controlled by the strongest, so when the loudest voices backed by guns demand a resource (and are willing to give something back for it too), nobody has any left; when the biggest banana plantation gets a virus, it spreads like wildfire and the entire species becomes extinct overnight
which is to say that some degree of smaller, duplicated, inefficient but distributed is required for sustainability, without even needing to consider other negatives (such as the rampant exploitation required to run these systems)
on top of this, the 90% similarity completely ignores the dissimilarity of the remnant. the greater the stack and engine of economy of scale, the harder it is to make any adjustments, meaning that while most of the needs of most will be met, no one's needs will be met in full
what's worse is that scaling is not a linear relationship, it is a curve. the amortized "cost per user" may flatten out eventually, but remains real, meaning that in absolute terms the costs remain astronomical but now the people delivering needs are infinitely removed from those receiving them. we
