> I'm hosting Gitea (together with around 10 other services) on a 1/1 instance (1 CPU, 1 GB RAM) at Hetzner. Those can be had for € 2,50 per month.

But can the Gitea devs scale it to support potential growth that costs beyond $10 a month? This is the reality too.
Unfortunately tech policy in Australia seems to have a history of being poorly thought out and this doesn't appear to be an exception to the trend. The thing I find so disconcerting is just how little expertise seems to be present in the legislative space around tech in Australia compared with other countries, how did this come to be? It's not as though there's a complete lack of legislative skill either, in other areas things seem to be a whole lot better.
I hope this doesn't come across as self promotion. I just wanted to share this single python script solution that I cooked up for myself.

It creates a markdown file that corresponds to the date you are making the note (so 2018-06-06.md) and adds a timestamp as a secondary header into the markdown file before opening the file in an editor of your choice.

I've gone over the top here and I have this directory linked to my Dropbox folder so everything is in sync. Whenever I need to jot something down I simply use `n` or `note` in the terminal, take down my notes and save it when done.
> Why deprecate OpenGL and not support Vulkan, Apple? Even with DirectX, Microsoft always maintained updated OpenGL on their platform...

A platform owner is free to do whatever it feels like on their platform, provided it respects the law.

You are quite outdated about the state of OpenGL in Windows.

The only thing Microsoft did was to let ICD drivers be around for desktop applications. OpenGL is not supported on UWP or Win32 store apps, nor the Windows 10 UI compositor.

Finally, contrary to OpenGL urban myths,game consoles always favored their own 3D APIs, with the exception of OpenGL ES 1.0's failure on the PS3.

The problem / challenge is that there is too many choices, too many ways to tackle a certain problem, and every library you find will have a different method. Plus each one introduces some university / Phd level mechanic that most developers (e.g. me) don't understand.

It's not so much that people need to read the source code before executing it as it is about the code being auditable by any third party, with or without permission.
Yes, but it's different

Say you buy a car with someone, you'll use it for 80% of the time, and the other person would use it for the remaining 20%

Would you agree if the other owner would spend his 20% driving recklessly, redlining the engine just because the car is his?

And in public companies you don't even get to pick who is buying that minor percentage
Yep, tried again the next day on a desktop and going to slates sight and finding the article. Guess I'm not reading this one...

I'd be more convinced to give it a try if Gitea's repository itself was hosted on Gitea rather than on GitHub.
The article ignores that sometimes, feedback is necessary.

I had a Lyft ride recently where the driver drove a car I believed to be unroadworthy, deliberately ignored the sat-nav adding 10+ minutes onto a short journey, and deliberately ran a red light (possibly because they didn't want to brake moderately hard, due to the aforementioned unroadworthiness).

Now, I'm all for not trying to interfere with someone's livelihood, and have given quite poor Uber/Lyft drivers 5* in the past for that reason, but this can also sometimes a necessary feedback route. Trying to prevent this either via guilt, or because of this idea that engaging with the feedback system lets companies minimise other forms of better management, is ultimately preventing legitimate and sometimes very necessary feedback.

In addition, the heat represents extra energy. Warmth and water (and carbon) are the very fabric of life. Nature will adapt to utilize this free energy source before you could say "thank you".

My prediction is we'll be amazed at the life forms that develop and explode around such submerged cooling structures.
Looks great, but the fact they won't dogfood means I'm gonna stay away for now. Definitely have my eye on this as an option though.
No, because you can not convert heat alone into energy. You need a heat difference (something hot and something cold). And the efficiency of the conversion depends on the temperature difference.
Well that's a nice change!

Powering down some facilities during temporary spikes would make sense (someday if hardware is cheap enough, operating only for peak solar generation/minimum local demand could make sense).

> Google has an extremely blatant monopoly in search

Tough thing is it grew to a position of dominance, on the user side, organically. (On the ad side, the story is more complicated.) Facebook grew on both sides by gobbling up potential competition, e.g. Instagram, WhatsApp, et cetera.
But why would a news website per se need to collect or process user's personal data? If you don't, you don't have to care about GDPR at all.
This is a big reason. The cost of leasing out space is definitely more expensive than the cost of cooling these datacenters.

Why spend several million dollars in leasing space when you can drop a datacenter capsule off the coast with free cooling? Who cares about the cost of hardware.

Tangible problems beat hypothetical risks. Particularly when it comes to technology. Google hasn't dropped the ball in a public, easy-to-understand way. Facebook has. It then reacted with repeated disdain towards governments and its users.

Fair enough, but there is still a hosted solution, it's just hosted email instead :) I know Linux used that approach, which is seemingly ironic since Linus made git, and previously used BitKeeper. There seemed to be some problem that emailing patches to a mailing list wasn't solving to motivate the invention of git.

Hi Tom, I think I remember you from the C3 Crypto Conference where we had a booth. I know what you mean, the initial cost of acquiring this technology compared to regular air cooling technologies is more expensive in the very short term, but when you consider the operational costs of electricity, the ROI can be under a year.

It becomes much more interesting when you also factor in that you can pack >4x computing power into the same physical space saving a lot of real estate and don't need the huge CAPEX in expensive prepared server rooms nor plan ahead the “hot-spots”.

Source? Ensuring the permanent deletion of certain data, once, is easier than implementing an a new and complicated compliance regime.
Playing the devil's advocate: then you still need somewhere that people can get the current repository state from. This place might not need to do anything with pull requests or any other write action on the repository, but somewhere to clone from is necessary. This would then be the "hosted" repo, and the patches sent via mail are just that, patches.
So there was a rumor last year there might be a dual socket Threadripper/EPYC mobo, and that the CPU's would be capable of it, but now that I search for it, it seems that it only was 'some guy on Reddit says' style rumor. Despite that, anyone knows if there is any chance for that?
I think the article is more about the fact that 5* covers every experience from "slightly below average but not enough that I want to crush my driver livelihood" to "This was the better ride of my life, bar none" and everything in between.

Doing so, it's mostly useful to employers and not to users. The only case where it's useful to both is the case you describe, the obvious 1* ratings.

Constitutional amendments are very difficult to get up, the majority of attempts have failed. If either major political party opposes an amendment, it's essentially dead in the water. On current form the Coalition would drumbeat against it and Labor would do the bigger-badder-tougher-meanie-poo dance to try and neutralise the wedge.

Consider the fact that we are in the middle of an ongoing constitutional crisis, for which the political class knows an amendment is the only effective solution, but nobody in either major party wants to even try.
Oui, article 323-1 du Code Pénal: https://www.legifrance.gouv.fr/affichCode.do?idSectionTA=LEG...

La dernière modification du 25/7/2015 renforce les sanctions (donc inutile d'espérer plus d'intelligence et de compréhension de la Loi)...

Article 323-1: "Le fait d'accéder ou de se maintenir, frauduleusement, dans tout ou partie d'un système de traitement automatisé de données est puni de deux ans d'emprisonnement et de 60 000 € d'amende. [...]"

En l'occurence, il s'agit d'accès frauduleux...

Article 323-3: "Le fait d'introduire frauduleusement des données dans un système de traitement automatisé, d'extraire, de détenir, de reproduire, de transmettre, de supprimer ou de modifier frauduleusement les données qu'il contient est puni de cinq ans d'emprisonnement et de 150 000 € d'amende. [...]"

Ca, c'est pour les données que tu as pu récupérer...

Et bonus, l'article 323-5: "Les personnes physiques coupables des délits prévus au présent chapitre encourent également les peines complémentaires suivantes :

1° L'interdiction, pour une durée de cinq ans au plus, des droits civiques, civils et de famille, suivant les modalités de l'article 131-26 ;

2° L'interdiction, pour une durée de cinq ans au plus, d'exercer une fonction publique ou d'exercer l'activité professionnelle ou sociale dans l'exercice de laquelle ou à l'occasion de laquelle l'infraction a été commise ;

3° La confiscation de la chose qui a servi ou était destinée à commettre l'infraction ou de la chose qui en est le produit, à l'exception des objets susceptibles de restitution ;

4° La fermeture, pour une durée de cinq ans au plus, des établissements ou de l'un ou de plusieurs des établissements de l'entreprise ayant servi à commettre les faits incriminés ;

5° L'exclusion, pour une durée de cinq ans au plus, des marchés publics ;

6° L'interdiction, pour une durée de cinq ans au plus, d'émettre des chèques autres que ceux qui permettent le retrait de fonds par le tireur auprès du tiré ou ceux qui sont certifiés ;

7° L'affichage ou la diffusion de la décision prononcée dans les conditions prévues par l'article 131-35."

Pour toi, ce sera peut être #1, #2, #3, #6, #7

A complaints system could meet that need though, and also might be taken more seriously.
For the vast majority of use cases centralization is an essential feature. You want that single source of truth, then you can have tons of branches etc. outside but without that single source everything falls apart if you are a team of more than one person.

I'd argue that even a single developer really benefit from a "centralized" repository. It helps with maintainability, backups, syncing between machines (oh, my workstation wasn't on, can't update my laptop...).

Pulling code from random developers machines might sound pretty neat in isolation but that is the exception and an edge case to something else. And that something else should most likely be a centralized repository.

When people say they love decentralized version control I often get the impression that what they really love is local commits. There is nothing that says that you can't have local commits in a centralized version control system, it is just that being decentralized is a neat solution for many problems. But that is just an implementation detail that very few could care about, had it not been hyped to death.

Now this is something entirely different than the whole developer community putting everything in one basket (github), that's the only type of centralization worth worrying about.

Microsoft's underwater data centre
We're already heating the sea (and everything else) by running the air conditioners to cool the datacentres, and generating the electricity to power the air conditioners that cool the datacentres.

This is more a lot more efficient.

Perhaps there might be a localised effect, but I doubt the effects would be as severe as the carbon emissions saved.

Yeah I'm in the same boat. I've been spending a bit of time looking into some of the big and popular Typescript projects. But something's not sinking in and I could use a intermediate/advanced guide.
Well one runs Windows and the other macOS, for a start. Otherwise, most apps already work on Windows that you're familiar with, thanks to the prominence of Electron. If you need Sketch, which is not on Windows, thankfully there's tools like Figma now that support 1:1 SKetch import and work better anyway.

I'll try to cover the accounts payable/receivable parts at least. One of the major points of modern bookkeeping is accrual accounting, which means that we recognize economic transactions independently of the cash transaction. Since the economic transaction occurs before the cash transaction, we can't increase the cash balance so we use a short term receivables account. I realize that this explanation isn't great, so I'll try to provide an example.

Consider that you sell a product worth $1000 on the first of January and you issue an invoice to your customer that is due 30 days later (net 30 days). As of January first the economic transaction has taken place and needs to be recorded to stay consistent with the principles of accrual accounting. As we've provided the customer with a product but haven't received payment yet, we've in reality given the customer a short-term loan of $1000 which has to be recorded. Accounts payable is the overview of all of these "short-term loans" given to our customers. The ledger entry for this transaction would increase revenue and also increase this short term loan as shown below.

January 1:

c: revenue $1000 (income statement)

d: accounts receivable $1000 (balance sheet)

Whenever the customer pays for the product we have to update our balance to reflect that the loan has been paid and that the customer no longer has any outstanding debt to us. To do this we credit (decrease) accounts receivable by $1000 and debit (increase) cash on hand by $1000. Note that the second entry doesn't touch the income statement as the revenue has already been recognized.

January 30:

c: accounts receivable $1000

d: cash $1000

The final balance of our accounts at the end of the 30 day period will be:

revenues: $1000 (credit)

accounts receivable: 0

cash: $1000 (debit)

Accounts payable is the same thing, but in reverse. When purchasing from a supplier on netX terms, we've been given a short-term, interest free, loan which we have to record until we pay it. I hope this helps.

This sub-thread was about AWS not having the same resource efficiency as Google, and Google also subsidizing with AdSense which is why GKE is free. So in that sense there is no reason why AWS couldnt also make them free.

Not every deployment is $1000s/month. I dont care about EKS, but it will hurt adoption if every single cluster requires a $144/month fee for the master when there are offerings from GCP and Azure that are free and far more polished.
