Nerdy folks out there may appreciate... just finished a rewire of my home network. New network switch in the basement, with a nice UPS. A tiny 'rack' with patch panel and home runs to various places in the house for wifi access points, outdoor cameras, ethernet wall jacks for computers, etc., etc.

Inside you there are two wolves. One is active, the other one is on hot standby and becomes active if the first one fails or is taken down for maintenance. Add more wolves as necessary for increased redundancy load balancing. A quorum badger can be added for environments with multiple active wolves.

America doesn’t need a ‘spiritual renewal’—it needs a commitment to reason, science, and secular values.
As fewer Americans believe in God, we move toward a future with more equality, critical thinking, and policies based on facts, not faith.

Approximately 20 members of Elon Musk’s staff have begun working within the Education Department. They have gained access to multiple sensitive internal systems, including a financial aid dataset containing the personal information of millions of students enrolled in the federal student aid program.
