Let's encrypt is great but if you operate any kind of scale you can quickly hit their rate limit. AWS only recently started allowing you to pull the certificate out of ACM.
Do you actually know what Vienna did? Because the overwhelming number of people who reference the city basically just repeat a few dubious talking point about restricting rent.
My local library has been running a tool lender library for quite a while. It's quite popular as it rents out both manual and electric tools. This is great when you need an extension ladder but don't want to own an extension ladder.
What happens is that economics shift from a renewable model to an extractive model.
Farms are renewable so farmers maintain them over centuries. Mines are extractive so they get pumped and dumped.
What landlords do in these situations is try to extract as much money as possible before the enterprise collapses, either literally or figuratively. New housing doesn't come online quickly so both quality and quantity fall.

Yeah, I've seen those contracts. They just reference a SeCuRiTy doc that's 20+ years old, and has never been re-evaluated. Things are secure because they follow the doc, not because they have actually evaluated the reasonable attack space.
I've fighting customers for years on their ideas of proper TLS usage and it's always the same thing. They've got a security doc that never changes and has never evaluated any of the trade-offs. Almost to the point that the people who wrote them choose things that increase downtime and KTLO work without helping security.
Because there are so many applicants that have good grades.
A more cynical view is that the governing boards want a way to pick and choose who they let in. So they create "holistic" application systems to get "360 degree view of the candidate".
> As per The Information, Meta employees used a total of 60.2 trillion AI tokens (!!) in 30 days. If this was charged at Anthropic’s API prices, it would cost $900M.
How are the investors not completely losing their minds at this kind of spending?
Fun story - at Oxford they like to name buildings after important people. Dr Hoare was nominated to have a house named after him. This presented the university with a dilemma of having a literal `Hoare house` (pronounced whore).
I can't remember what Oxford did to resolve this, but I think they settled on `C.A.R. Hoare Residence`.
Right now, liquid fuels have about 10x the energy density of batteries. Which absolutely kills it for anything outside of extreme short hop flights. But electric engines are about 3x more efficient than liquid fuel engines. So now we're only 3x-4x of a direct replacement.
That means we are not hugely far off. Boeing's next major plane won't run on batteries, but the one afterwards definitely will.
