Unfortunately that won't wash if you are renting a server of collocating. Replacing a drive without it having already failed would most likely result in a charge for unnecessary hands-on maintenance time.

Though if you are expanding the storage anyway you could do it with an identically sized pair of drives, sync the existing array over to one of the new ones, drop the extra, then you have to unmatched drives for a new array. If using LVM you can join that to the existing VG or (less safe but better performing once you are done) you can try reshape the two arrays into a stripeset for RAID1+0. And hope that the new drives are not from the same batch as your existing ones and have just been sat in a store cupboard for the last year.
Have you tried coc? Despite the repo name it works with regular vim too and is definitely the easiest way to get completion and other LSP functionality (jumping to definitions, doc previews, error highlighting etc).

Thank you. Do you mean how did I make the dark mode? If so, they were all photo templates I made from Adobe XD (so it is how you want it to look like)
I find that so helpful, thank you. I think you scratched the itch in my head. I think my real concern is, "was the shed building time well spent?" I think it served it's purpose and helped me de-stress.

I am 50 now and need a new focus. As you mention, we have x capacity. I am hoping that my "this time 5 years ago photos" in 2027 are not pictures of sheds :-)
What's more important than preaching about signed vs unsigned is raising awareness not to use both.

Most signed/unsigned related bugs (outside numerical/math sensitive domain) are due to using both simultaneously and the side effect is of course going to be overflow/underflow.

On the other hand, I'd favor int over unsigned as it's more practical when dealing with memory address arithmetic & array indices due to address difference being signed.
That's interesting! I definitely wish you the best of luck.

Ps. Don't forget to submit it here ;)!
> Romania has basically no competitive advantage in the EU, except a cheaper workforce.

Part of that advantage is that Romanian labor laws are less restrictive (the minimum wage is a third of the french one, for instance). So France had a choice between repelling labor laws to keep worker competitive, tell all french truckers they could kiss their job goodbye, or introducing some protectionism.

I'm usually in favor of free trade, even when it costs jobs, but in that case I think free trade would be a direct race to the bottom. Jobs performed in a country should respect that country's labor laws, otherwise companies will just shop around for the country with the least restrictive labor laws without even having to move their operation. Unrestricted european trucking went against that.
> but the barrier to entry is low for another UX

I don't agree. I think excellent UXs have a super high barrier of entry. Look at apps such as Google Docs, TikTok, etc.

A company could build an UX without even thinking about being decentralized and users will care about the UX but not about "decentralization politics". If an excellent decentralized UX is built, you just copy the interesting parts and add you proprietary ones, sell you brand and success!
Democrat -> Blue, Republican -> Red
It wasn't designed that way. In other locations in the city, street level is at least 150 cm above the water. But because of natural subsidence, ground water extraction, construction and peat oxidation, some parts of city's peat soil have subsided in the last few decades to only 25 cm above the water.

> I just don't see how doing everything in a web3 solves anything better than regulations.

Maybe - but then, good luck getting every single country in the world, to agree on identical, completely open regulations way, way more advanced than PSD2. This is what ""web3"" (or more accurately, open and composable finance primitives such as Ethereum/alt-L1s and the surrounding ecosystem) achieves.

Any time I'm working on some code I open a GitHub issue for it. I then make comments on that issue as I go, recording decisions I make and things I try and "next steps" I need to take and links to API documentation or example code that I need.

I try to ensure there's as little relevant information as possible that's exclusively in my head.

This means I can recover from an interruption - "get back in flow" - much faster than if I kept everything in my head.

More importantly, it means I can have an order of magnitude more projects on the go at once. I sometimes return to an issue I first opened more than a year ago and can productively start working on it with just a few minutes of review of the previous comments.

Wittgenstein in a lecture once asked his audience to imagine coming across a man who is saying “...5, 1, 4, 1, 3 — finished!”, and, when asked what he has been doing, replies that he has just finished reciting the complete decimal expansion of π backwards.

This.
There isn't a Web 3, at least right now. No concept in the Web 3 craze would currently be possible or practical and if it was you can be very sure that the existing powers that be would shut it down to defend their position. Also valuing digital scarcity is sad and just a way the "haves" distinguish themselves from the "have-nots". The fact that anything can be copied freely and shared is the best part of the internet.

Plus all NFTs are a hilarious game of what marketplace it is published on. Give it 6 months, there will be massive fragmentation of the marketplaces and you'll see "NFT Artists" listing the "Original" on 50 marketplaces at the same time.
Blaming the people that don't take the vaccine is the last refuge of the incompetent politician. What's even more ridiculous is that there's no way they'll be able to put three vaccines into whoever's left before Omicron comes and goes.
You could have 15 people in an org and it's entirely unsupported to drop the Exchange server if you wish to have AD synced users regrettably. MS are very clear that "ways around it" go against their recommendations, even if I don't like it myself.
I kid you not I got an explanation about feeling sad and depressed around birthday once: "when we are born we are separated from our mothers and that event deeply traumatizes us for life". Really? an underdeveloped brain of a baby is already traumatized at birth? Maybe you're right, maybe I just have to switch.
My own experience is that I tend to snooze as a car passenger on a long trip while I do not when I am the one driving. No need for speculation, I know I would be incapable of taking over on a short notice if the car does something bad.
> Unit tests should be small, specific enough tests that they should not ever require using the database.
> I don’t know if it’s laziness, IDGAF, ignorance, stubbornness, [...]

My impression is that most people who think along these lines just lack the technical ability to make tests that involve the database fast (or maybe even robust), or just parrot something they heard. If you want to test a service that requires DB access for most things it does as part of its core logic, why either exclusively rely on more difficult to debug end-to-end tests, or put in extra effort and bloat for worse tests with nonsense like mocking when you can just give it a database in a way that adds basically no discernible overhead to your test run?
What is new, though, with web3, is that now they're trying to turn every single interaction that you have on-line into an economic transaction.
It depends on how much gravity is needed for how much time to stave off the long term effects of zero gravity. If we're lucky, then just sleeping at a higher G may be enough and you just need the bunks built in a centrifugal train.
The entire premise of up- and down-voting is that some comments are more valuable _to read_ than others. “Let’s just have a debate” isn’t really a fair criticism; we can’t afford to debate everything, so ultimately there’s going to be a preceding value judgment.

That value judgment may look a lot like an ad hominem, but it’s perfectly rational—for example, in this case, the question is, should I take the time to seriously engage with a book written by a man who claims vaccines cause autism, led a group that opposed flouridation of drinking water, claimed that 5G “damages DNA” and is being installed to facilitate “mass surveillance”, and, oh, by the way, is a master falconer? (Nothing wrong with that, but I find it hilarious.)

Obviously the answer is no. There are a lot of interesting, well-founded books on science that I want to read, and I just don’t have time to read a book by a master falconer, let alone engage meaningfully with it online. Maybe the earth is flat, and I’m just living with my head in the sand. Oh well?
Indeed! If it takes 20, 30 40 lines to put a window on screen then that feels just as crazy as the 100 or 200 you need for a vkHelloWorld
I think the point regarding centralization is that with the blockchain the ledger is central (assuming a single coin ends up winning) whereas right now we have many different ledgers that may not entirely agree. Including single individuals having their own ledgers.
Would it be fair to say given the contents of the movie that he's given up then?

edit: beautiful quote from the interview: "Are you really more interested in the private life of your favorite celebtrity, than you are in the protection of intelligent life in a galaxy of 400 billion stars?".

The answer to that question, for the general public, is not good news.
I never clear database, use fuzzy tests, and combined its VERY hard in practice. The reason you do it is mostly DEVELOPER HAPPINESS and QUUICK TEST WRITTING/DEBUGGING which I can't state enough how important it is.

So, integration tests. I have REST API which i test via PowerShell and pester so no transactions are possible. There are 2 options:

1. The database is dropped before each run and recreated via migrations and seed

2. The database is never dropped

3. This one possible to: run thousands of times then drop the database. It helps with randomization exhaustion of certain limited set of objects.

First step lasts from 20s to several minutes depending on the size of the db so its not that bad during CI/CD run, but its BAD during development because you can't just run single test 10 times quickly but you need to wait for DB cleaning in between. That clearly sux. Oracle db is the worst here.

Another thing that sux is once you have it running longer then 5 minutes, you again block development AND deployment. That sux big time. Now you want to parallelize which is mega problem since its ONE THING to run single test on database, and ANOTHER THING to run multiple tests on the single database in parallel. It can be done, but its better to forget this IMO and just make it in parallel on different databases (I did this one tests run on 10 servers each using its own db and taking set of suites of tests).

Now, WRITING TESTS LIKE THIS REQUIRES LOTS OF THOUGHT, REFACTORING OF BOTH TESTS AND BACKENDS, particularly combined with FUZZY tests (where in essence you randomize test input on each run)

Fuzzy tests with the non-dropping database are absolute astonishing both in its testing ability and its potential to produce flaky tests. Out of 10 failed tests, in my experience 1 is due to bug, 9 are due to flakiness of randomization and database state.

And all could be fixed. But it requires infrastrucutre, tools, and methodology.

1. I log each test run on InfluxDb and dashboard them on Grafana so I can compare months or runs and see what tests are flaky and if there are any other patterns.

2. I require from developers to NOT drop the database and use randomization for any input of almost ALL attributes it has.

3. I ask for them to run serially any test thousands times without ANY error (to prevent flaky tests). Then I ask them to run them in combination with all other tests (so they don't get dependent).

4. I have tools like complete db export when tests fail, verbose communication details with any touched REST endpoints, option to quickly run single or set of test in a loop, option to change tests before run without any particular toolset (i.e. notepad/vim).

This is VERY hard to do, honestly. But it totally rocks if you happen to do it right. We almost never had a bug found by a user.
Can you explain that jab/reference?
Don't greenhouse plants also rely on insects for pollination? Unless they're all relying on imported seeds, I guess.
Testing it… I’m not sure. I tap on the 3d cube logo in the picture of an object, and then “camera screen” pops up, but it’s not the camera app, it’s safari, I see that in the apps list (by double clicking the home button). Nothing in downloads either. Very strange.
Can confirm, when I made this thread it didn't have the old. name in the URL.
That is a great explanation! Did the book explain what happens when we go beyond our capacity?

I concur. And it seems depression is also an incarnation of the less of balancing mechanisms. You tilt and tilt .. more and more toward negativity, and every reflex idea goes further in this direction.

That's why I don't listen to myself much when I'm down. I aim at staying in the middle, doing the simple regular things .. because I want to avoid kicking the feedback loops (staying awake longer, bad hygiene, bad diet, isolation etc).

ps: in a way I think social-ness is a balancing mechanism in itself, others can serve as stabilizer quite often, breaking your bias and avoiding loops.
Are they planning to harness it to align the stars and form a Coca Cola Ad constellation?
I know who the pilot was on this flight and I’m damn happy she won’t be getting near the controls of a plane again anytime soon. Coworkers were astonished she didn’t rip the flaps off.
That wouldn't track informal trades made with cash. With a common ledger there would be no way to circumvent the system.
HN isn't being criticized for being wrong, but for being too critical and too partisan.

That kind of proves that there is no substance behind Web3, other than a hype train, saying that the technology will be useful someday. "get in now before it is too late."
But those platforms that let you use the scarce digital assets will. OT allow you to pull unlicensed copies from anywhere but from known endpoints, thus your digital copies are useless as none point to them. Similar to how you hosting www.google.com on your web server doesn't get any of the real Google traffic as none point to you.
This is what happens when you ignore every one and experts. How much money and resources have been literally wasted because this man's ego of knowing better than anyone else?

And this man according to his fans is going to save the planet? What a joke.
So many people complaining about web3 being:

- more centralized

- more controlled by VCs

- less performant / reliable / secure than web2

These are probably all true for now.

They failed to see the key features web3:

1. the possibility (but not guarantee) to operate in a hostile government / regulatory environment

2. the possibility (but not guarantee) to operate without a legal entity without shareholders / boards

Web3 is not a guarantee of decentralization or security or anything else that people often mistakenly attribute to it. Web3 has one superpower in that it can say a huge FU to gov and FU to big tech. Web2 can't.

That's it.

It's ok to be disappointed by this superpower. But after reading "the Sovereign Individual", I am a believer in this superpower as being incredibly meaningful and impactful in the longer span of human civilization.
> "As of 22 April 2011, the city had confirmed 837 deaths with 1,196 missing"

Hell, that's less direct deaths than Chernobyl, the worst nuclear disaster ( only in direct immediate deaths, indirect long-term deaths are hard to calculate, and the WHO estimated them to be at around 9,000, which is still probably less than what that oil tank's oil killed indirectly via pollution).
The Arms Export Control Act is a US law, and his friend was neither American nor in America. As a non-American myself, I don't like it one bit when I see US law reach into what should be sovereign countries. And then have that dismissed as "there's nothing stopping Georgia from doing a favor for the US", when that favor involves taking away the freedom of one of their citizens. A US citizen getting extradited to Russia as a favor would not be treated so casually.
But we (Nordics) replaced all our oil pans. I naively thought it was the same thing just oil instead?

A boiler makes hot water in a tank in the basement and showers, radiators and taps use that hot water?

I have seen (In Scotland) some extremely weird contraptions where water was heated in the shower by what I can only assume was an flame in a box on the wall. But surely that’s not what Germans and others on the continent are using? They do have a central hot water system?

How else is water coming to the radiators? I guess my question is: are there gas lines around a typical home to any other place than the boiler and possibly stove? Why?
From a cursory look Arweave is not looking interesting: it start with lies that it is censorship proof, but with a way to remove child porn and spam because lawyers, and then lies that a one time payment buys storage for eternity, of course not. I stopped looking for other lies from there.

Really don't know why I bothered when there is the Andeersen Horowitz logo at the bottom of the page which tells you all you need to know, these guys would never fund anything that does not involve thinly disguised theft.
If think you’re mixing up Medicare (old people) and Medicaid (poor people).

Doctors love Medicare. It pays them nearly instantly, steady stream of clients, and known fixed rates commensurate with most private negotiated rates.

Medicaid is the one that has much stricter benefit rules and tighter price guidelines.
Because we have natural pathogens that could be released to do the same as a bioengineered one. For example the Spainish Flu, smallpox, plague. All of these could be introduced into our cities and kill millions. In addition there is and has been for quite a while the potential for buoengineered viruses as well.

So, what should we do if the local chapter of the Aryan Nation or whatever bad actor we choose to discuss were to go on a bioterrorism campaign? What could we do if we had not capability to test, evaluate and develop counters for these agents? These labs are where the folks that understand these agents come from.
The point is that for a role with 1000 seats, at a turnover of 10% and the usual acceptance rate of 0.1-1%, they will be interviewing thousands of people for this role every year. It's not gonna be a white-gloves process like hiring a C-level.

That’s not limited to US healthcare threads, there’s plenty of similar topics (prison systems come to mind). I appreciate your response, I’d love to see a resolution to the groundhogday-esk parts of HN.
Fwiw, cents on the dollar = a few percent = very expensive for financial transactions (that’s a PayPal level ripoff).
That's very heavy framing in order to make something quite banal - rejecting a medical treatment as is their right - into an evil action. Like it or not, this is what it means to be a liberal democracy.

"These people" haven't killed anyone and there is no court of law that would condemn them. The economic costs are to blame on a bumbling government that failed to prepare for pandemic scenarios and doesn't have any ideas on how to deal with the virus except through vaccines. Unfortunately for them, Omicron's not too fazed about said vaccines, making the whole exercise more and more absurd.
Isn't it harder to operate in a hostile government with a centralized ledger? Once the government somehow gets a hold of which wallets you use, they will be able to track down all your steps.
As someone said, you confuse interrupted with distracted. I medicate my distraction away by microdosing lsd. 10 microgram every 3 days. There is now quiet in my head. Look into it.
if we rearrange all taxes to be fees on pollution we have the market solve this problem in no-time. i think a fair and square CO2-eq tax is the only solution that will not require govt to come up with loads of quota/restrictions (which will take decades to setup and will always be unfair to some).

the current situation is a joke: lots of tax at the petrol pump, but not for airplanes. restrictions on plastic bags and straws but subsidies for lifestock and their feed industry.

the current situation is setup for total destruction and the only changes we managed to make were tokens: nothing has made a real dent. because god forbid it changes the status quo. the status quo has all the lobby power, and democracy is a racket.
I've heard of a couple of CEOs, and a few freelancers now doing hands on things in their downtime.

IMHO, software development is a rollercoaster of exciting highs and lows. While woodwork, creating something tangible with your hands... it's something else. It's a perfectly balanced sweet continuous feeling of pure zen that you don't want to stop.

I believe it can make you more productive when you return to your main work.
I'm an American. I find modern American society to be borderline braindead in regards to mathematical literacy, scientific literacy, economic literacy, and being able to fluently speak more than 1 language other than English. It is clear to me that older generations of America are more skilled than the younger people now. Back in the past, most older generations of America were much less overweight, obese, unhappy, illiterate, criminal, violent, lazy, spoiled, unprofessional, anti-family, anti-leisure time, etc. They were the ones that actually made America great. But now that American civilization has collapsed because of increasing wealth inequality and decaying infrastructure due to antisocially greedy oligarchs that economically abandoned the working class many decades ago, America is crumbling while China and Russia grow stronger economically, intellectually, and politically. China and Russia will defeat the U.S. in regards to geopolitical power because working class Americans are too poor to afford resources for improving themselves intellectually, financially, emotionally, and physically. Working class Americans have to illegally riot against the ruling class in order to get human rights back and get American civilization to stop collapsing because of increasing wealth inequality and decaying infrastructure. Because the ruling class is ruthless towards working class Americans now. This is why COVID deaths usually happen to working class Americans more than most Europeans for example. Because most Europeans have a social safety net at least.
