What people don't understand about gitlab is that it's a absolutely monumental resource consumer.

I run one for a community of hobby developers and to keep my stuff out of github for ideological reasons, but it's running on what is, by _FAR_ the most beefy machine I run.

Normally I have machines that are a couple cores, couple gigs of ram, or single purpose machines with under 1G and a dedicated thread on the hypervisor.

Gitlab has a 32G DDR3/8 Physical core CPU machine to itself.

I consumes, at any given time, about 25% of that (before FS caches, which, you're going to want).

I had a friend running this before me on a VPS with 4G of memory and the thing was so annoyingly slow that we blamed the hoster and our users were turning back to bitbucket/github.

Since the upgrade, things are smooth as a babies butt.

Although it's hard to justify the SERIOUS expense of this server, it's certainly fast enough. I worry about larger deployments though.

Btw, you can get a taste for yourself if you like; https://git.drk.sc

Maybe it doesn't scale very well with many users/projects. We've only got a couple hundred projects and around 100 users. (and only a handful of CI runners)
I really don't know. It just seems to be once of the anecdotes people use to illustrate the genius of Jobs.
It's not a conventional hoster in the sense of hosting WAMP/LAMP/MAMP, but enterprises (mainly from Europe) used their dedicated servers a lot for their stuff.
This is a bit misleading as the article is about a service and not a product based business. The terms MVP and MRR do not translate well to a services based business as the two scale in vastly different ways. $10k monthly revenue does not equal $10k MRR as there's nothing reoccurring about it. If these are reoccurring revenues (say from a retainer) then the article does not mention it, and even if so MRR is much less impressive for a services business because scaling is so hard while in a digital product business, if there's demand scaling is considerably easier.

I am using their previous "VServer" offering and while it is not easily visible on their landing page it is possible to reboot their VPS into either a Linux based or a FreeBSD rescue image and install your favourite Linux distro or FreeBSD from there.

This way you can run for example a FreeBSD or Arch Linux VPS for under 3 Euro per month. :)
Great prices.

What's strange is that only RAM and disk space increase linearly with the price, not the CPU, nor the traffic. That creates an incentive to buy small instances and getting a lot more for your buck.
> Are you suggesting that a footpath is safe

You mean they aren’t safe where you live?

Blimey. I’ve been attacked once, in total, and that was as a teen and an adult intervened within seconds.

I used to walk to school if I missed the bus (or if I wanted to miss mandatory religious activities), and that took me an hour. Sometimes I’d walk home afterwards, because the school had a then-novel internet connection. I’ve walked a few hundred kilometres around Berlin in the last few months, and explored several other European cities by walking around on foot for hours each day. If you go to Venice, your only options are foot or boat, and the boats don’t go everywhere.

Which is true. But most US citizen doesn't realize how their system, while extremely bureaucratic in nature, protect real bad things from happening.

>But it does resolve to a local address.

Huh? The exploit allows remote website you visit ends up having access to stuff bound to localhost. If a localhost website has access to other localhost stuff, it isn't as much of a big deal.

>The point of rbndr is that it switches between resolving to a remote address and to a local address, which is an entirely legitimate thing - https://owa.example.com for most companies will do exactly this when you move between the corporate network and the public internet.

IMO it's worth blocking it, and only allowing that behind a flag or a custom whitelist that the user maintains. Enterprises can easily do that.
I got confused at your mention of "Burgenland" together with your nick, which led me to find out that "Burgenland" and "Burgenlandkreis" (Burgenland county) are two different counties in two different countries:

I don't disagree, but they certainly won't support the kurds' efforts against a NATO member.

Don't misunderstand that I think this is a) a good idea, or b) ultimately going to work out the way Turkey wants it to work out.

I don't think the kurds will choose to live and die by Afrin.
In the context of renting one of their VPS this is fair criticism. The information handed out by Hetzner is not adequate regarding their exposure and timeframe for patching. It's been several weeks since the public disclosure, and if they are still vulnerable for meltdown this puts all customers systems at massive risk.

"The host systems will be updated to fix the vulnerabilities as soon as possible. The necessary reboots will be announced on Hetzner Status. You may subscribe to be notified. "
This may be, but Gitlab seem to push all of their RCs to prod.
Keep in mind that Hetzner has a rather lax (non-existing?) policy when it comes to stopping outbound spam, so make sure to check that IPs you get from them are not on MX blacklists.

To clarify - saying this as someone who was forced to blacklist their IPs on more than one occassion, not as someone who ran into tainted IPs as their customer.
I'd be _really_ suspicious of data showing a 10M tsunami in the open ocean. In deep water, they're super long wavelength low amplitude waves, it's only when they interact with the bottom that the wave piles up and gets to large amplitude.
They will anyway; the center core separates later and won't do a boostback to land. And there are only two landing zones at the Cape as well.

But that's irrelevant to the launch; they cannot launch from the ASDS.

Hardline bargaining, sometimes works, very high ROI. Probably underreported, not entertaining/uplifting.
> I bet you are a white anglo-saxon republican, who has a lot to loose (or at least thinks he has a lot to loose).

I guess racism is fine when directed at a supposed white person. Amazing that you can determine a person's race based solely on their opinion, and even more amazing that you found it relevant.

And what if he/she isn't white? Does that make his/her thinking wrong? Did he/she step off the plantation? Why is a person's ethnicity at all relevant here? Should we all declare our skin colors in our profile so you can properly analyze our arguments based on your prejudice?
You were the one who was talking about usefulness. While it may not be an objective metric, it's still what everyone evaluates their language ability on: whether they can use it to talk to people.

The bar for diplomats is much higher, since they need to be fluent enough to avoid a diplomatic incident. Would you trust someone with 2 years of high-school French to speak that well?

That said, I agree that Chinese is more difficult than most other languages; mostly due to the writing system, which even Chinese schools spread over multiple years for good reason. But that is no argument against offering the language anyway.
Do you have a source or reference where i can get a deeper information/knowledge about the relationship between the dollar, yuan and bonds?
I felt it here in Anchorage when I was on my way to bed. It felt like a shallow, rolling earthquake. It reminded me of a quake I experienced in 2001 in Washington state. The shaking went on for what I thought was 30 seconds. My wife woke up but my kids did not.

Within a couple of minutes, I saw the reported magnitude, depth, and location on the USGS earthquake site, https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/map/.

About the same time, Google started showing a tsunami alert:
https://www.google.org/publicalerts/alert?aid=43774f005241ac...

We are in no danger from a tsunami here in Anchorage.

The alert shows potential tsunami waves arriving at coastal towns over the next couple of hours, with the first potential wave arriving in Kodiak in a few minutes. I have no idea how likely these waves are, but 7.9 is big. I am sure a lot of people are scrambling for high ground now.

God speed and be safe.
Im disappointed to confirm these are quite real. I've seen a particular case where a benefits enrollment page has a check box list where your selected enrollments at the top of the page _silently change as you edit fields near the bottom_. And you can bet which direction those values change. It doesnt hide a submission button like the author's example but it DOES prey on those who neglect to review their submission in full before continuing (which I guarantee is a significant and quantifiable benefit to the payer)

It's a big stretch of the imgaination to dismiss this behavior as 'designer error'. This is a great example of where class action lawsuits can and should be employed.

Hey! OP here :)

I agree that it is not a product. Another more correct term would have been "MVO" (Minimum Viable Offer)

It is a productized service business offering design as a service. For a fixed per month we do design requests, so it is recurring in that sense.
Do you know why these reports mention Hawaii, rather than (say) Vancouver and other coastal cities nearer to the epicenter, where I would imagine a tsunami would reach first?

I thought just the same thing. Bubbles all around.
A lot of the Dollars value are due to trade of oil being conducted with US dollars. Thus the Federal reserve has had a special privilege of being to able to print new US dollars through debt which a large commodity oil are being traded in.

However with the rise of electric cars in the future there may be less demand for the Petro dollar. How will a new world currency be formed, will it be a Petro Yuan or will it be a global crypto currency like Bitcoin? Doesnt a new global crypto currency need to have around 2% inflation new coins per year to stop hoarding from occurring?

US produces a lot of IT-services for example Amazon, Google, Microsoft, Uber, Netflix, Arbbnb Dropbox but nowadays less physical goods.

Can anyone compare their service to Linode or DigitalOcean?
I'm currently using Linode but the Hetzner prices seem way lower:

For 35€ a month I get 32GB RAM, 8 vCPUs, 240GB SSD + 20TB Traffic. The comparable 40$ plan for Linode offers 8GB RAM 4 CPU Cores 48GB SSD and 3 TB Transfer (See: https://www.linode.com/pricing)

Am I missing something or is Hetzner just way more competetive?

Pretty much. I used to use Perl 5 a lot but I never considered using Perl 6 and eventually moved on from the Perl ecosystem altogether. The huge advantage of Perl ~10 years ago was the massive amount of CPAN packages but in the meantime python & friends mostly caught up in my experience.

Meanwhile the shiny new revolutionary Perl 6 took forever to release and when it finally did nobody cared anymore. Quoting Wikipedia:

>The design process for Perl 6 began in 2000. [...] on December 25, 2015, the first stable version of the specification was announced.

I can respect taking the time to do things right but when your development history resembles that of Duke Nukem Forever something is off. That in my opinion hurt Perl more than anything else, even more so than the lack of compatibility between Perl 5 and Perl 6. If Perl 6 had released in early-to-mid 2000 I think there would've been enough interest out there to bridge the gap. It would've been messy but it could've worked.

Instead Perl 5 felt a bit like a legacy language "while we wait for Perl 6 to be finished" and Perl 6 was nowhere to be found. And Perl went from the de-facto scripting language for un*x to people asking "Is Rakudo Perl 6 used in production?".

OK, I'll bite.

How does your contract move gold from you to me? If it doesn't (which it obviously doesn't), how is it removing the utility of escrow? In fact, what is it achieving in this case that does something different to a traditional payment system?

And in what conceivable way has this anything to do with the utility of Amazon or eBay?

That's not to say that smart contracts cannot have any utility, they can. I could imagine, for example, that they could replace a lot of the functions of notaries. Or, in fact, any case where the primary problem is a common understanding of the state changes of a digital asset. But I can't see how they have any utility in any of the examples you cite beyond a mundane payment system.
From my experience this is false. Hetzner reacts to abuse notices and I never received a server with blacklisted IP addresses.

The only organization that caused issues is Microsoft / Outlook.com, but they seem to block every IP address by default. I was able to unblock myself by filling out a form and waiting a few hours for all my servers so far.
Well done.

You've just engaged in an ideological rant about muslim rapists in a thread about people being too old to drive.

You linked to the Gatestone institute, twice. Started by a known anti-muslim zionist and the reporting has been repeatedly accused of deliberate inaccuracies.

You also linked to WND twice. A publication known for perpetuating shaky conspiracy theories and white supremacism.

You chose two extremely right-wing (and unreliable) sources twice each. Not one countering article did you submit as a comparison.

We can all see exactly where you stand here.

Never dealt with their enterprise/server stuff, but the consumer end is a fucking nightmare. The website is shitty by itself, but the best part was that until recently, some very smart folks at HP decided to use the user-agent string to determine the OS of the visitor and then only show according drivers. So there I was with my Linux system trying to download WiFi drivers for Windows which I just couldn't find, I was close to freaking out. I only realized this when I tried again the next day, coincidentally using a Windows machine. They added an option to switch the OS by now but man, I had some nice insults ready for the genius coming up with this...

Too bad WiFi reception was just as shitty under Windows, literally no signal next room. Oh and the USB ports didn't work properly under Linux but OK, the system wasn't advertised as Linux compatible anyways.
It's also called a "money bill" xD

Controversial is such a wishy-washy term to use as your example. In newspaper speak it mostly means people disagree or don't like something. Here are some examples:

"Slow iphone? Apple will let you turn OFF the controversial feature that reduces iPhone speed" from https://www.thesun.co.uk/tech/5368260/apple-iphone-slow-feat...

"Controversial designer Hedi Slimane takes the helm at Céline" from https://nypost.com/2018/01/22/controversial-designer-hedi-sl... .

If "controversial" is the gateway term you think it is, then it's so overused and applied to so many divergent cases as to have no power.

E.g., based on the article about Hedi Slimane, what are "all the negative connections to this word" that you imply may happen, and what is the narrative being pushed?

The UK is the second-fattest country in Europe after Malta, and obesity (BMI > 30.0) puts you at risk for type-2 diabetes. It's a public health issue.

I am not sure where I said anything about "beacons of integrity and truth," but I will take institutions that routinely call themselves out for their mistakes over Hersh who appears to stand by all of his reporting despite serious flaws in his stories.

I get my news from the sources you mentioned along with many others. I was taking issue with your disposal of babies with bathwater. If you are discounting information coming from flawed institutions with actual policies and procedures in favor of dubiously sourced "investigative" reporting by people like Hersh, we are in deep doo-doo.

FWIW, I am about as close to being on the ground as just about anyone outside of the actual participants in the war.
