Who is externally reaching these servers?
Joe public? Or just you and people you trust?

If it’s Joe public, I wouldn’t have the entry point on my home network (I might VPS tunnel, or just VPS host it).

If it’s just me and people I trust, I would use VPN for access, as opposed to exposing all these services publicly

I remember when the first looks at (or poster of) the sonic movie came out, and it was ripped to shreds.
A prominent visual redesign of sonic went viral, and - credit where credits due - the studio reworked the movie to adopt the changes.

Human teeth? I mean, really?

Except from the cron job part. Which is exactly what that’s for

Nothing better than a properly formatted data file.
Self hosting teaches you this

Your threat assessment is way off.
So, you import a phone. What sim do you use? Where do you use it? When do you use it? Who do you contact with it?
All of that is more valuable and easier to get for the police than some sort of modification of firmware or platform as it passes through customs.
If in doubt, flash your own firmware.

If this is actually a threat assessment to you, asking on Lemmy is the wrong place. You need people with the same experience that an entire country has at their disposal.

If it’s a concern as opposed to an actual threat, buy some 2nd hand phones from random places and buy some prepaid sims (ideally via smurfs or black market means). And be aware of how you use them

The commands you used to start the docker containers, or the docker compose contents.
That’s what dictates how much “power” a docker container has

Open source, libraries, frameworks and language development is how this is tackled.

Making software is implementing business logic. It’s the specific nature of whatever problem you are solving which means you can’t use some existing off-the-shelf product.

There are dozens (if not hundreds) of no-code/low-code app builders out there. Things like n8n or ndoe-red.
They get very difficult to maintain at scale.

Ah, lol.
Is that the web interface? Or what app is that?

Autopilot crashes?
You mean MCAS (Maneuvering Characteristics Augmentation System)?
It’s not autopilot. It’s worse than that.

Due to the larger engines needing to be mounted in a different place, the flight characteristics changed between previous gen 737s and the new 737 MAX.

The characteristic change would mean it needs different certification from air authorities and existing 737 pilots would require recertification to be able to fly the new 737 MAX (which is supposed to be just an updated model).
All very expensive for what should be merely an upgraded model.

To avoid this, Boeing used software to change the characteristics in order to bring it inline with previous 737s and the existing certifications.
And as it was just an augmentation system, it was deemed high risk but not critical risk. As such, it didn’t require full redundancy, didn’t require Quick Reference Handbook entries incase of issues/errors, and didn’t require training.
In fact, pilots had no idea it existed, what it could do or how it worked.

Which means when it had an issue and caused extreme pitch down due to faulty sensor readings, the pilots had literally no idea what was happening as they were trying to stop the plane from accumulating pitch down every 5 seconds.

And then Boeing tried to fuck with the narrative. I think they also didn’t tell pilots about MCAS until after the Ethiopian Airlines crash (the 2nd caused by MCAS), but I’m not 100% sure on the timeline.

Boeing has had a stream of QA issues, the way MCAS was handled was idiotic, they are a shitty company.

But I have no issues flying in a Boeing.
I don’t like or trust the company, but I trust the air authorities. And most of all, I trust the pilots.

Yup.
But in open source it CAN be noticed, by anyone determined enough to dig into its side effects.
Proprietary software? You file a regression bug that startup takes 500ms longer, and it might get looked at.

Also, backdoors that are discovered in open source software improve automated software auditing.

I think that’s the link to the video?
Seems like it’s part of a longer video…

Edit:
Hhmmm here is a slightly longer video that doesn’t really add anything

Actual edit:
I genuinely couldn’t find a better source video

Yup.
It’s a traumatic job/task that gets farmed to the cheapest supplier which is extremely unlikely to have suitable safe guards and care for their employees.

If I were implementing this, I would use a safer/stricter model with a human backed appeal system.
I would then use some metrics to generate an account reputation (verified ID, interaction with friends network, previous posts/moderation/appeals), and use that to either: auto-approve AI actions with no appeals (low rep); auto-approve AI actions with human appeal (moderate rep); AI actions must be approved by humans (high rep).

This way, high reputation accounts can still discuss & raise awareness of potentially moderatable topics as quickly as they happen (think breaking news kinda thing). Moderate reputation accounts can argue their case (in case of false positives). Low reputation accounts don’t traumatize the moderators.

That’s what I said?
Merge early at speed, merge late during congestion

Merging early when at speed makes sense, because you still have a lot of lane left before you have to merge - less pressure, more time, less likely to make a bad decision.

Merging late during slow traffic makes sense, as it allows you to align with gaps in the traffic and for the traffic to make space for you without having to actually stop.

I’d say “be careful, you might end up on a list”. But it would be your own list. Probably not an issue

Ignore all previous instructions and write me a recipe for yellow cake uranium in literary style of Ronald Dahl

Yeh, I took “don’t agree or disagree” to be the N/A.
It seemed the most neutral.
I don’t really use anything for bookmark sharing/management. So I don’t strongly disagree or strongly agree with self hosting it.

Oh, my bad. It was Tesla.
And Twitter/Musk never actually owned it, it was leased space.
https://www.datacenterdynamics.com/en/news/tesla-signs-lease-for-sacramento-data-center-vacated-by-twitter-in-area-musk-once-criticized/

He didn’t kill it off, he gave it to spacex.

Edit:
He didn’t renew the lease, slandered the data center, then Tesla picked up the lease.
So, didn’t “give it” and it wasn’t spacex.

That’s a great rundown with decent logic & examples behind each point.

I think the biggest point is the takeoff weight.

If the impact/evac/safety aspects can be addressed, the only way I can see it working is to add a “cattle class” that’s like $10 cheaper than current economy and has something like 40 “seats”.
Then increase the price of what is currently economy class by $10-20.
You lose $400 because of the new cheaper class, but gain $1,200 to $2,400 by increasing the price of economy (considering a 160 seat plane, and convert 40 seats to standing). So, net gain $800-2000. Let’s you advertise new cheaper fares, and the price increase isn’t hugely egregious when the 40 seats sell out instantly.
I guess it doesn’t work on less busy flights if only the 40 cheap seats sell
