Why?

Tumbleweed is the rolling baseline.

SLES is the major release branched off that, every 2 years.

Leap is a regular release of tumbleweed, rebased to SLES, to get current packages.

MicroOS is a configuration and repackaging of dunno, leap probably

So they have one baseline, all of them, openSUSE

Liberty Linux is a repackaging of rocky Linux, no? Which ad I said, suse had been doing already before.

And the ranger/kubic stuff came with an own team.

The beastie enabling all these related configurations single source cross CPU architecture is their open build server combined with their openQA.

These guys rock. Except in marketing...
There's not really magic with s3, you still need to name things with coherrent prefixes to spread around the load.

DynamoDB is almost simple enough to learn in a day. And if you're doing nothing with it, you're only really paying for storage. Good luck with your decisions.
If you follow Rick Houlihan (@houlihan_rick) then all the accolades that AWS for DynamoDB pale in comparison to its current team and execution in that the company seems to not be investing in it so much so that Rick left to join MongoDB.
My anecdote: a friend of mine gave me a ticket for a float tank in London for free. Decided to try.

As others mention in this thread, it was not completely depriving of stimuli, but close enough. The air felt a bit colder than the water, so I definitely felt where one ends and the other begins. It was a 60 mins session, first 10-15 mins with relaxing music.

What was immediately noticeable to me is that I initially had incredible back pain. I realized this was just tight muscles. After some 20mins this went away and I actually felt like after a massage. Very interesting and I was almost disorientingly calm.

On out of body experiences and other magic: At around 45 mins I had slight hallucinations. A weird colorful line appeared on the horizon and I started hearing some of the best drum and bass I have ever heard (was not an existing song). Probably a flashback from my youth when I was in the scene.

All in all very interesting and I thought about buying a float tank at home (they cost 10-15k-ish). I was renting at the time however so it was not an option otherwise I would have definitely done it. It' on par or better than a massage for me when it comes to the aftereffects. The process itself is less enjoyable though than a massage.

Edit: one of the commenters asked about a bad experience.
I was actually fairly scared to try it, although I have relatively extensive experience with meditation at the time I was suffering from pretty bad anxiety and I was afraid to both meditate or try float tanks in case it makes it worse. I can say it provided a short term (hours to days) noticeable calm, so it definitely did not make it worse. YMMV

Yes, I had the single dose Jansen vaccine in May. I also had some residual coughing when exercising or talking emotionally (positive emotions, not shouting). Same thing with strength as with you. No problem with push and pull ups, squats or jumping. It is just that my heart rate goes up faster than usual. E.g. I had to carry a 50 lbs box upstairs and after the second floor I already felt my heart beating. Wouldn't have been an issue before, even if running upstairs with 50 lbs.
> you don't want a "bull case" for a currency.

Yes you do. Because currencies are a position to store value just like every other “investment”. Currencies can go bad and become literally worthless via hyperinflation, for example. And some currencies will hold their buying power better than others. To not consider whether your currency has a strong bull case… or whatever you want to call it… is basically blindly trusting it. That’s closer to faith and hope that logic.
I've got my ISP router (because it needs to decode the fibre-optic), but that's bridged directly into a TP Link C6U router that handles PPPoE. It runs OpenWRT with most of the default packages, I've only installed some monitoring/stats graphs and all packages needed to setup DNS over TLS (via Cloudflare).

The home network is fully wireless (wiring is pretty old and sockets are in some unfortunate places). There are both 4GHz and 5GHz wifi networks.

All my personal devices have static 'leases' to my "dev" subnet, which has no restrictions, port forwarding for certain services, multiple split VPNs with different routes.

My significant other has her devices on a "trusted home" subnet (with static leases).

All other home devices that may need an internet connection (eg: Homepod), live on a restricted (firewall) subnet (with static leases).

Any new device gets leased an IP on a "guest" subnet, that can only communicate on that subnet, and to the internet unrestricted.
MikroTik for router (which I hate) and UniFi APs for WiFi (which I love).

First: Ok, so. Let's imagine that there was a perfect sound money. One that couldn't be tinkered with, one that couldn't be debased. Would you still need to "encourage spending"? I definitely do not think that's a given. I'd even argue that the need to intervene in the economy by playing with the cost of money is a symptom of the current system.

Second: Yes. No one is denying that Bitcoin is volatile. If you pick any arbitrary period of time you can come up with whatever statistic you want. This is not sound argument IMO.

Does it, though? The actual literature I’ve seen on the topic seems to take a far more nuanced view.

Sounds like a straw man. Bagels, being highly perishable, doesn’t make sense to pile up. The alternative to “wringing out excess capacity” would rather be to reduce batch sizes at the cost of set-up and clean-up time in order to better adapt to variations in demand.

They could also address society generally having poor health - If the CDC pounded the table about unhealthy foods/the obesity epidemic I'm sure it could move the needle in some way. Addressing the obesity epidemic would be killing 100+ birds with one stone.

There are set of authors/artist who rely heavily on their "visions" and use these as a source materials. Philip K. Dick is one of these visionaries(Exegesis, VALIS).

I've failed to find a nickel gold alloy with such a small amount of gold ("0.4g" according to the website) that still looks gold/yellow - 'white gold' which is a gold-nickel-palladium alloy has a magnitude more gold in it than that and nonetheless looks silvery.

I suspect this is a coated surface, with the coating being easily vaporized by a 405nm pulsed laser.

You lived somewhere and are speaking for the whole country... I live in Zurich (the city) since 2015 (and my wife since 2018) and we have the opposite experience. Small talks with strangers and totally open converations with swiss people if you want. But you have to be open for it. If you are an introvert yourself, people mostly just respect that and cut conversation to a minimum.

And yes, Im speaking mostly for Zurich City as part of Switzerland, not Switzerland as a whole.

My point was that simple a-priori logic of the kind you offered regularly fails. A fast-food restaurant who wants to keeps its machines running has profit-driven feedback loops of a radically different nature than those of an energy market (esp. when such a market has natural monopolies).

And likewise, markets are amoral. If the "market" opts for a failure every decade over a higher-priced day-to-day run... this isnt "rational" or "correct" or "ethical" or whatever. The way a market happens to function is amoral.

You can make the argument that over fairly short time horizons in non-critical areas "meeting consumer demand" in most cases has a certain consequentialist justification. This doesnt carry over, a-priori to all possible cases.

Ie., it is quite reasonable for a society via a democratic expression of ethical judgement to say "the market is not here considering the long-term impact in the right ethical manner"... ie., that being without power when it's -20 outside & affecting the whole population in ways not priced in by the market is a *moral failure*.

It is the prerogative of the collective to say at once "here's how it should be", rather than via iterated interactions "here's how its happened to be".

Arguable whether adding a ‘fake news’ label is censorship.
It's clear that novelty introduced into complex biological systems has long-lasting, higher-order, unpredictable effects. The chemical novelties introduced by humans has manifested numerous unforeseen effects, one of which has been the damage to the great barrier reef.

Then humans come along again with another great novelty they'd like to introduce to this complex system (artificial clouds), which will also likely have "unpredicted", higher-order, long-lasting effects.

>But this time it's good!

>We actually understand what we're doing this time!

>Trust us - we fully understand this complex system and the consequences of our actions now, really!

>We understand with 100% certainty that this is a 100% net good and it cannot possibly have detrimental effects worse than those that have already occurred!

We said the same things about coal and DDT. The skepticism around this artificial cloud plot is warranted and welcome.

Let's just back off for a little while. Rather than add more novelty, let's try to undo some of what we've already added. Take the via negativa. Ease up on burning stuff. Let nature's clouds do their thing. Just relax for a bit.
We paid 2000 EUR for a 55" HD (1K) Sony in 2010, and would happily go down a bit in size as it's now mounted over a piano that frankly sees a lot more use than the TV. I'm completely ok with paying 1000-1500 EUR to get a 40"-50" 4K set that we don't have to constantly give the side-eye once the current one gives up the ghost. We rarely watch anything, so it might be more of a question of whether this one will outlive 720p/1080p freeview or not.
ISP fibre -> ISP fibre terminating box -> Router Netgear R6220 running OpenWRT.

My home server and several machines are directly connected to the router via ethernet, and it also offers WiFi in the house.
The router offers regular IPv4 NAT in a /24, and passes down GUA and ULA /64s. It also runs a wireguard VPN, DNS and DDNS, and acts as firewall.

My home server runs Ubuntu and runs a lot of stuff, like storage, Nextcloud instance, torrent, internet radio, UPNP media share to the TV, and more. Mostly docker containers and traefik for HTTP, managed with ansible playbooks.

Considering I got both of those devices from the recycle bin, I'm very happy how they work.

ISP fiber box is some kind of a Mikrotik, feeds into my own Mikrotik firewall. From there on I have two gigabit switches, connected to e.g ethernet outlets around the house and anything else that needs Ethernet like the Ubiquiti mesh WiFi endpoints and TV's, computers. It is housed in a rack cabinet inside a cupboard, and I also have a few Raspberry Pi's, external disks, MacBook Pro 2016 model that has been turned into a Linux server since I have a newer Mac now. Also, there's a UPS with a 100Ah external battery in the same cupboard on the floor. So a pretty minimal homelab overall.
>They're entitled to live like that if they want, so long as it doesn't turn into socially and structurally coercing everyone else to live like that

Yet people routinely advocate for subsiding what we want and penalizing what we don't in damn near every other public policy context, transportation, energy, housing, etc, etc, etc.

So how do you reconcile this? Surely those people who want a conservative lifestyle have just as much right to try and get society to do what they want on the issues they care about as any (to pick an example) the people who want us to reduce outsourcing of manufacturing to countries with less environmental protections do?

> There are no reasons to be bullish about currencies, that’s not their purpose.

Whether you hold currencies, stocks, cryptos - these are all positions with various possible outcomes. A currency can become worthless through hyperinflation, for example. So yes, you absolutely should be sizing up your currency position and deciding whether it is to your advantage to hold it.

You can say a currency bull case is that it’s stable representation of value. That thesis could play out or completely break down depending on how the government in control of the currency behaves themselves.
Aside from my modem (Netgear CM1000) I have all UniFi equipment: a USG, couple of switches, couple of access points, and two mesh antennas to join the house and shop networks. Overall it works great, although with the direction the company has been headed recently I don’t think I could recommend building such a setup today.

I also run my own DNS: two pi-hole docker instances running on Linux servers, backed by unbound. That I can recommend wholeheartedly.

I completely disagree with that article. Instead of "avoid this or that", one should be understanding how Typescript compiler works and not treat it as a blackbox. Ultimately, Typescript does compile to Javascript.

One cannot use Typescript without understanding Javascript, since every single Javascript library is not written in Typescript.
The most reliable way to build a system with DynamoDB is to plan queries upfront. Trying to use it like a SQL database and make Ad-Hoc queries won't work because it's not a SQL DB.

Data should be stored in the fashion you wish for it to be read, and storing the same data in more than one configuration is acceptable.

Same here, but from Slovenia, equally a small village.

I think people forget the incredibly huge role internet has in terms of openly available knowledge.

In my opinion the majority of negativity around internet is from the general public and about the websites that the general public uses aka. facebook, twitter, instagram, ...

This has became even more apparent when I started teaching computer science to students and adults. The most noticeable was their inability to use Google, actually being able to find information online.

Techy people quite often forget that, since we're so used to solving problems.

Imagine programming without internet... <insert stackoverflow joke here>

As much fun as it was to tinker with all of the networking gear in years past, I have settled on using a google wifi mesh system for the time being at home.

If I could do it over again, I think that I would have opted for something a bit more "pro-sumer", perhaps ubiquiti's mesh system. For what it is, the google system works well enough, but there are a few annoyances that make it less than ideal for the average hacker news reader. An example of this is that you DO NOT get a web interface. Everything must be done with their mobile app.

The best part about the google system is that they intend for the routers to be setup and managed by an average person, which in my experience has lead to a very stable system. I couldn't tell you the last time I had to reboot any of the hubs and the family hasn't had any complaints. A close second is that the hubs each have an ethernet jack on them, allowing my desktop to be "hard wired" into the network and still get fiber-like speeds despite the fiber drop not being near the desktop computer.

Even in my small-to-mid sized home in suburbia seems to benefit from the mesh system and I won't be going back! The benefits are real.
