if motherboards were sparse why not look on ebay or something?

this motherboard seems like a really bad choice, because it's for a workstation not a server - doesn't have vga out, does have audio output and doesn't have IPMI

meaing you not only paid extra for wrong MB but also for the gpu and kvm

i'd also go for a better powersupply than bronze - at least gold, if that thing runs 24/7. The return of investment is like ~2.5yrs depending on the PSU (at least in my country)
You're right, I initially missed that it was for sharing music with others, not just organizing your own.
Probably the most unique aspect: one batch can brew up to 6 micro-batches (different water but the same beans), then mix the water together into the final product.

You're telling me I can stop using GitHub: I know that already. I am bringing this issue here to have a chance at avoiding that.

Re-hosting my repositories is one thing. The other is that I would like to interact with other people's repositories, which happen to be on GitHub.
I was underweight and borderline anemic through early 20's and it didn't make a difference, but still huffed and puffed. I could do low intensity things like cycling for 10 hours a day, no problem, but jogging, swimming, or running would make my descending aorta vibrate my lower abdomen and maintain a typical hr around 120-140 bpm (resting bp was 100/50, now resting hr is 115 with bp 125/80).

I'm in the process of losing 40 lbs (17%, cut) and then rebuilding muscle mass.

DMS under the covers is another tool. The Postgres support for it lags pretty well and is mostly and after thought. It's much better to try to leverage something more native, either the WAL or if on a more modern version take advantage of logical replication.

For coming off Heroku DMS isn't going to work cause you don't have a replication slot, so your only approach is wal-e, or maybe wal-g?

Fast cloning is one nice feature for sure of Aurora, but when you go into Aurora you're starting to deviate more and more from native Postgres. Fast cloning can definitely be done one without Aurora. We're working on bringing our ability on Crunchy Bridge down to a few minutes similar to Aurora, while still being 100% Postgres. Not there yet, but suspect we're a few months away.

You are assuming that Apple would have a say in the matter. The US is deteriorating socially and becoming much more authoritarian every day. It is not at all outlandish to believe the US could simply compel Apple to store this information and/or funnel it right to the NSA/FBI/Whoever. They could even be ordered to lie and say they are respecting our privacy and would never do such a thing.
Some of those things are pretty easy to solve.

For example checking upcoming card expirations is running a DB query on a daily background / cron job that returns cards where the expiration date <= some threshold that makes sense for your app (maybe 2 months). It's like 3 lines of code with most popular web frameworks. Typically you'd be storing a card's last4, card type, exp date and an association to a user in your system so this info is handy.

It doesn't take much more effort to send emails out as warnings for that. I've done it in a few systems before Stripe had this email feature.

The smart retries is interesting but this feels like another thing where Stripe is happy to collect our data but then re-sell it to us at a premium once they've gathered enough data. Similar to having to pay a lot more money per transaction to get fraud protection rules (Radar). Basically we pay Stripe to train their system and then they double dip and charge us extra to use these features.
It's not the same argument that's being made today. They arguing against delegation of your vote to another person. Quoting:

We no longer have a system where you vote for an elector who decides which presidential candidate to vote for. The electors in the electoral college execute a formality, they don't make decisions. The issues around electoral college vs. popular vote are not addressed in this paper.

Sidestepping the whole apple/freedom/consistency argument, are consoles actually good for consumers?

Consoles are fundamentally locked down, as the platform-holder (Nintendo/Microsoft/Sony) sell the console at a loss to drop the market price (impossible for commodity hardware that can be used for other purposes), then recoup their money by taking a fee from every copy of every game sold for their console.

This used to make sense because consoles used to be unique specially-designed hardware that kind of necessitated purpose-designed codebases, but nowadays consoles don't really have a difference compared to commodity PCs. In fact, the latest generation moved to x86 specifically so that they would be more similar to PCs! That was for the sake of letting devs use PC dev tools and it, but IMO there wouldn't be much loss if the consoles were actually 100% compatible OOTB with normal PC applications.

The main reason consoles exist with broken compatibility is:

1. Simpler, potentially more reliable purchasing experience (there's only 1-3 hardware devices that can run your console game, thereby sidestepping the paradox of choice)

2. Social-network lock-in (bad for consumers IMO)

3. Slightly lower upfront costs. Except that's basically not true, it only applies for a specific arbitrary standard of minimum graphical fidelity. A Raspberry Pi will always be cheaper, and a cheap x86 PC should be able to run 2010 games just fine. Batman: Arkham Asylum was from 2009, and is no slouch in terms of graphics. Arguably, consoles are better upfront value for money.

4. Potentially simpler dev target - only one configuration, means QA is easier.

5. Exclusives. In theory it gives devs the chance to make something they wouldn't have made otherwise, or gives them the chance to develop the game specifically around the one hardware architecture, but I'm not convinced either of these are real problems.

6. This isn't related to compatibility but debatably consoles have a better UI than HTPCs. Also, being gamepad-only means you don't get rekt when joining a lobby with KB+M players in FPSes.

Personally, I don't think so. There's more analysis to be done but I'm ending this comment here.
Then (in the hypothetical) you should use what your competition uses and not use Cairo; Cairo wouldn't be vying for your attention, and Cairo doesn't make money when you use it so wouldn't care what you use. If there's a FOSS competitor worth leaving for, that means the environment is healthy.
Exact same for me.

> With the new Apple Silicon devices the you can’t boot your own OSes anymore

I'm not sure this is confirmed. Though either way it's somewhat moot as Linux drivers for key Apple Silicon components (e.g. GPU, radios) are unlikely to be available any time soon.
During late summer a widespread hope bordering on complacency occurred among the Swedish health officials as the number of cases and deaths receded: there was a chance that the (non-mentionable) herd immunity strategy was going to pay off. Various mathematical models were proposed to show that only a fraction of the normal > 60-70% immunity should be enough to suppress the virus. No second wave was probable. That hope spilled over into conviction among various sectors that demanded restrictions be lifted. The need to be right was greater than attention to the numbers coming in.

What is happening right now is that the number of deaths are rising rapidly, the number of people in intensive care have exploded over the last two weeks [0], which means the number of deaths will also explode over the next few weeks.

The Swedish experiment that chose not to aggressively push back the virus but instead to let it wash through the community while protecting the elderly is starting to look like a failure, and the people responsible are starting to look markedly stressed. The economy is healthy though, comparatively (and for the time being).

A lot of this thread feels like Microsoft's terrible naming having not surprising negative consequences. "ASP.NET" can mean so many things to so many people.

To me it's usually a synonym to the full-fat MVC with controllers, DI, everything. This is reinforced by most of the dotnet templates and documentation, which make it feel like if you ask for a banana you're given a gorilla and the entire forest whether you want it or not.

In comparison, if you look at Go you'll see the "net/http" package. It's the HTTP server. Extendable. Built in - not something to download from NuGet. Only does HTTP - not reinventing its own DI, configuration management, IIS, etc.
Well the software rasterizer is the most important to me, but lack of dashed strokes are a problem too. I'm also potentially going to use Cairo's recording and Postscript/PDF surfaces, but it's understandable if those go beyond the scope of your project :)
>as in "we can't produce enough food."

US nuclear-war planners in the 1970s or 1980s estimated that there was enough food in silos in the US to feed the survivors for about 3 years. I think they assumed that 50% or 60% of Americans would survive. Usually, most of the grains and beans in those silos would go to feeding livestock, but in an emergency they could be used to keep people alive instead.

So, unless the livestock-feed supply chain has tightened up significantly since the 1970s or 1980s, the US would have about 3 years to get mechanized agriculture back up and running.

Also, ISTR that they estimated that most cars and trucks will survive the attack, but since the electrical systems of automobiles have changed drastically since the 1980s, maybe the US's current inventory of automobiles is a lot more sensitive to electromagnetic pulses. (Cars and trucks are relevant because the US would need some way to transport the grain and beans in silos, most of which are on farms or near farms, to where the people are.)
One form of discrimination begets another - since subpopulations often happen to be quite different in various aspects, positive discrimination towards one racial or ethnic group would be expected to cause some discrimination of other factors that happen to be correlated with belonging to that group.
I like that.

I think it makes Linux some sort of United States: users like the principles, but almost all use one of the 50 major implementations, which tend to have small differences. When defending any perceived shortcoming, they will point to a different implementation without the particular flaw, or argue that the feature is not only unnecessary but undesirable.

Many outsiders are uncomfortable with the unwavering commitment these users have for the principles. Others often talk about moving to the USA, or how they plan to, but few make the effort to do so.

[The last paragraph convinced me the analogy was better with the USA than the EU.]
Apple's revocation policy gives you no control over the revocation–you ask them to revoke things for you by contacting them, and then they decide whether this seems like a valid request, then they grant it for you. This is not how revocation usually works, so if so, why is Apple not vetting requests when they are placing themselves into the process?
Thank you o great open source communities leader, what would we ever do without your most insightful guidance?
Furthermore, if you’re one of the few who do know and it bothers you, you can turn it off.
Interesting, looks like the wikipedia title spells it Betteridge's with an apostrophe. %27 is the url encoding for the apostrophe and %25 is the url encoding for the %. So it looks like the link somehow got url encoded twice before it was shared resulting in the apostrophe becoming %27 and then the %27 becoming %2527 and producing a bad link.

Some common method of people finding and sharing that url must have had an issue where it incorrectly encoded the url twice. I wonder what it was :) .

Or perhaps the scraper has a bug where it is double url encoding the en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Betteridge%27s_law_of_headlines link?
Both are important to understanding the constitution say the scholars.

This gets at the heart of existential risk. Should we abandon all technology to avoid the possibility of nuclear war and just wait for an asteroid or climate change or resource exhaustion to kill us? Nuclear destruction only gets easier over time as technology progresses. My cell phone is faster than the supercomputers of the 80's used to model nuclear explosions. Even North Korea can refine uranium. Guided rockets are cheap enough to launch high school science projects. Hypersonic cruise missiles are on the horizon.

Generally I would propose we avoid nuclear war being an existential risk by going to the stars as soon as possible. That has other costs that, yes, should be balanced against the costs of nuclear war.

AGI is another path to a post-existential-threat future for humanity but probably has the greatest risks because it accelerates virtually all of the existing risky technology and climate trends, balanced only by the hope that its intelligence grows far faster than the risks and that it's value-aligned with humanity.
An acquaintance just recently got an email spam about some "network scanner as a service" (sken[dot]ai) because he had starred the bandit network scanner repo. Shady as fuck.

Not blaming you, of course.
That’s why I keep Firefox around as well. Surf in Safari and work in Firefox or Chrome.
I also wrote this same program for my work as an product manager working on oss projects, but ultimately decided not to release it publicly due to my own ethical concerns. I use it exclusively to contact folks who "touch" my projects repos, in order to get better feedback on the problems they're encountering, and better understand their use cases. But, I also understood this tool would be very valuable to spammers and generally make the quality of life on GitHub worse.

I'm also of the opinion that grabbing people's email through the commit history is at least shady if not outright unethical, even if it's public. Most folks I talk to don't realize that their email is public this way.

I tried recently to productize my version of this tool [1], with the caveat that you can only use to contact folks that tough repos you or your organization owns. It hasn't seen much success so far though.

Fair enough, but that's not a typical experience on either Windows or Linux in this decade - if that's happened to you, then I think you've just been incredibly unlucky.
This is fair.

My personal philosophy is to imitate success. Marcus was born to the purple so it makes sense to limit and find balance in the stoics before him. True stoics have this 'lack of free will' twinge to them, where bad things happening is a way of life and you have to just roll with the punches.

Let's look at another Stoic and his accomplishments, seneca. He was exiled, came back and tutored Nero (Another crazy emperor) and ended up killing himself.

Why is Stoicism held to such a high standard when it's examples are so poor. It seems to turn people into this laconic acceptance instead of having fun and doing stupid shit for the sake of it.

Long live Linux!
That's not really the same as not being able to run these apps, don't you think?

But besides this bad example, I agree with you. Windows has always been a black box, but as time goes by it's become a stupid black box. It feels so incredibly refreshing when I go back to Linux and I feel in control of the entire system. Almost like a physical sensation.
That's the same way a CA works (except with a bit of automation instead of emailing someone).

I go to the CA that issued my cert and say "I'd like to revoke this" (whether that is an API call or an email), they then publish the cert into their certificate revocation list.

Now, Apple could deny a request, but they are under no obligation to do so, and I would argue that they shouldn't be making those judgement calls.

As they did here, they get the email, they then publish the CRL, and wash their hands off it.

This is fantastic thank you; I thought our customer card data was effectively held hostage in Stripe so the only way to move customers to a new system was to wait until their credit cards expired and were updated.

We're planning to migrate away from Stripe after this latest in a line of price increases.
It shouldn't even be a "hard" problem any more. Search and relevance are mature technologies. You do need to provide some features, but there are many: time spent interacting with tabs, was it a "terminus" in a navigation session, active user marking/tagging, signals from other users, other products, etc. It would be an excellent use of ML. The rest is capturing these in a user friendly product, though if it makes Megacorp no more ad money, I doubt anyone will work on it however useful it may be.
What should be the proper process then? Should Apple reply to all revocation requests asking for a proof that the certificate has really been compromised? OCSP or CRL revocations are easy to revert, so why risk letting a compromised certificate to be used for an extended amount of time?
Another fun trick: curl https://github.com/USER.keys to list a user's public ssh keys. Iterate over every GitHub user, then correlate. Now you know what accounts are actually the same user (or share ssh keys).
Heh, dunno, notice that Apple is comparing themselves to the Intel chips, and in particular the i9. But NOT the AMD chips. On various metrics the Zen 3 looks pretty good compared to M1. AMD has Higher peak performance/throughput, similar per thread performance, and I've yet to see a GPU comparison.

We've had a few people migrate from Heroku and RDS over to Crunchy Bridge and see 2.5x performance improvement on warm cache and up to 5-6x performance improvement on cold cache for the exact same $ spend. I can't say easily how that would compare to raw EC2 cause it really depends on how you tune and configure. But there is definitely some opportunity to optimize vs. any stock install and setup.

The real thing about EC2 is it'll be cheaper. But when you do have a bad day, say page corruption you're gonna have more than a bad day and a bad week/month trying to untangle that. I'm not sure how helpful RDS is in those cases. I can say that Heroku historically was solid (I was there way back in the day having helped build the service). And there are some other options that can still deliver good performance, good support, at a balanced price.
Why are you surprised? It is always the "little man" that pays the most amount of tax.
