Will artificial intelligence create useless class of people? - Yuval Noah Harari

1:00 "bring the latest findings of science of the public", otherwise the public space "gets filled with conspiracy theories and fake news and whatever".<br /> he fails to mention that ALL his beautiful "scientists" are financially dependent on corporations, who dictate the expected results, and who sabotage "unwanted research".<br /> for example, the pharma industry will NEVER pay money for research of natural cancer cures, or "alternative" covid cures like ivermectin / zinc / vitamin C, because these cures have no patent, so there is no profit motive, and also because the "militant pacifists" want to fix overpopulation this way.<br /> a "scientist" should be someone, who has all freedom to propose hypotheses, which then are tested in experiments (peer review), and compared to real placebo control groups. because that is science, or "the scientific method". everything else is lobbying for "shekel shekel".

tl;dw (best DevOps tools in 2023)

1. Low-budget cloud computing : Civo (close to Scaleway)
2. Infrastructure and Service Management: Crossplane
3. App Management - manifests : cdk8s (yes, not Kustomize or Helm)
4. App Management - k8s operators: tie between Knative and Crossplane
5. App Management - managed services: Google Cloud Run
6. Dev Envs: Okteto (yeap, not GitPod)
7. CI/CD: GitHub Actions (as it's simplest to use)
8. GitOps (CD): Argo CD (wins with Flux due to its adoption rate)
9. Policy Management: Kyverno (simpler to use than industry's most powerful tool: OPA / Gatekeeper)
10. Observability: OpenTelemetry (instrumentation of apps), VictoriaMetrics (metrics - yes not Prometheus), Grafana / Loki (logs), Grafana Tempo (tracing), Grafana (dashboards), Robusta (alerting), Komodor (troubleshooting)
