My extremely uninformed and non-professional take is that communism only really works on small scales. at a small scale, maybe less than 150 people, what actually needs to be produced can be handled by a few people who understand the needs of the community, or people can present what their own needs are and others can help them. For incentives, pretty much the only one is dopamine like you said, but helping out in a community and seeing the impact should not be underestimated as a motivator, and neither should reciprocity (I got helped so I'll help other people).

Larger than that you'll need an organizational structure to handle needs and potentially an enforcement structure to handle motivation or lack thereof, inherently leading to people with more power than others who might abuse that power to garner more of it.

    They both have the same issue, of othering the subject rather than including them. The former is no different from using transwoman and the latter is a weird corruption of bracket usage which implies the word transwoman. Neither is necessary when you can simply separate the words appropriately with a space so as to be clear the subject is a woman who happens to be trans, not a separate category.

    Crontabs can live in different places on different systems, but generally when you run crontab -e you're editing the crontab of the current user, which is generally placed in /var/spool/cron/{username}. If you do sudo crontab -e that edits the crontab/file for root. There can be other files nested in /etc/cron.d, /etc/cron.hourly, /etc/cron.daily et cetera as well.

    To find out where those old cronjobs are still defined, you can recursive grep the name of that unique log file you mentioned (if the log file is part of the command in the crontab). grep -r "{unique log file name}" /etc and /var/spool should find it. If the log file name isn't in the command, grep for some other unique string from that cronjob that would stand out amidst everything else in /etc.

    To add timestamps to log output, you can pipe it through ts.

    I think you're buying snake oil, my friend. What is "AI"? Statistical tools have been used in security auditing for decades.

    The people riding the AI bubble want you to think things are magically different right now, but we won't know that until we can get some solid data over the next year or five to do a proper comparison.
