> They also 'verify' in the sense that any driver can challenge and get a "better than road side" test back at the station under supervision (blood tests with saved samples for court challenges, etc).
DUI (in Australia) refers to "Driving under influence" and focuses on threshold detection rather than degree of impairment (although relying upon other studies that allege to correlate the two).
In the case of drug impairment, "better than roadside swabs" evidence for court challenges includes samples of urine, breath, hair, saliva or sweat.
Blood samples, rather than breath tests, are typically for alcohol.
Independent of roadside pass / fail on swabs for drug / alcohol levels Australian RTA can still ask drivers to complete an impairment test; assessing balance, coordination, and overall behaviour.
On challenge, this is something that can also be further assessed for court evidence; eg: are their perceptions of impairment because (various) medical conditions that cause slurred words, etc.
Sounds like an Nvidia driver module issue more than anything else. If I had to guess, simply removing the Nvidia module should fix that and still get you video through one of the various backup paths (opennuveau etc)
You can run no-mode-set to get video output at boot/installation phase but then you're stuck with 800x600. That's with the FOSS nouveau driver in the kernel.
There's no fixes that I could find. My LLM research says nouveau dropped support for that Nvidia architecture on newer kernels. Bummer.

I think it will be Linux on the server, or the one that runs your watch, your phone, the radio or infotainment system in your car, maybe your thermostat, a bunch of medical devices and military devices, running in space shuttles and space stations and... You get the point. It's on everything.
The smartphone is the most important piece of infrastructure in the modern world, yet we have basically two vendors.
Unless something dramatically changes, that's the world we're in for.
Chinese foundation model providers are releasing fewer weights as they "catch up", not more. There's little incentive for anyone to dump on the market if they can't collect the proceeds.

Foreign state actors are not lacking incentives when the entire US economy is propped up by overvalued and overhyped AI. Like dumping a model that runs at Opus 4.6 brains at a fraction of the price on non-nvidia hardware.

If you limit LLM use to cellphones, maybe, but that seems awful silly right now. And why would you when there's so many B2B or B2C tools and products for it to go in. No reason to consider the market to be that constrained IMO.

Yep. Kubernetes is not just kubernetes when moving between clouds, it becomes a very opinionated product (for better or worse) with lots of vendor addons. Could someone that is familiar with one pick up on the other? Sure! But there are gotchas. And then kubernetes on prem adds the hardware lifecycle piece, and potential data locality issues, etc.

I think this is gradually getting better. Networking with Gateways is better than with Ingress in this sense. Things like autoscaling groups need to get better, as they are (or were a couple of years ago) very bespoke.
There are differences across vendors, but there’s a way to build with k8s where the benefit far outweighs the cost.
We run a bunch of services in two very different cloud vendors (one of which used to be DIYed with kubeadm), and also on dev machines with k3s. Takes a while to figure this out and to draw the kustomize boundaries in the right place, but once you do, it’s actually really nice.
Two things work in our favor:
- we’ve been at this for around 8 years, so we didn’t have to deal with all the gotchas at once
- we aggressively avoid tech that isn’t universal (so S3 is OK, but SQS or DynamoDB is not; use haproxy instead of ingress controllers; etc)

This doesn't directly answer your question though.
I would disagree. If you only do X, in fact I think you will miss a lot of things that could make you better. You can become better writer by reading other great writings, if you only write yourself, you will not have the full big picture on what is possible. Then you can become better by thinking a lot, imagining a lot, etc... Same with most fields I would argue.
Although we were discussing about the decay of skill in something. While in some things the decay is super clear (as in running - pace, not the technique), I think there's many areas where there's no clear decay and other activities will actually significantly boost it, and any decay that there is, will be removed in just few days of practice or remembering.
