Most of the time I see "serverless" used these days, it's referring to the fact that server specifics are abstracted away from the application itself's deployment artifacts. Instead it just runs on a platform of some kind without worrying about having to be built for this version of this OS, etc.

While it is being used a bit recklessly here, taking it literally is about as insightful and constructive to discussion as pointing out that "cloud" servers are located on the ground.

I would even defend its usage here by pointing out that it's entirely possible to use this at a company in which the servers are managed by one person or team, and the developers building applications simply interact with the service and never touch a server themselves. Neither team has to touch each others scope, making it indistinguishable from conventional "serverless" approaches in which the decoupling occurs across company rather than across team within one company.
Sure, the original article is about a legged movement, and the entire thread is about microparticle (plastics/rubber) emission comparison between wheels and legs.
We have been investigating (and even implementing) ways to kill off mosquito populations for years now.

I don't know why we are dragging our feet on scaling this up. Are we too hung up on potentially erasing 10% of a bats diet?
Agreed.

I originally did not do so since it was incomplete and I was a bit worried about the association.

It's all in a public git repo so my name was never truly hidden. But now that I'm using it more, it does make sense to be more explicit about who runs the site and what "qualifications" I have.

It may not happed immediately but added to my TODO list.

China's AI Engineers Secretly Accessing Banned Nvidia Chips
This comment strikes me as unintentionally helpful in understanding the problem.

"Gun violence" is of course factually a non-issue in America. Being scared of guns is like being scared of shark attacks or being struck by lightning- technically possible, but realistically such a small risk for the average person that it rounds to 0. But, if you follow certain news or get your social media algorithms tuned to show you certain content, it can seem like this big scary thing.

I also can't really fathom what "repressive moral culture" someone is imagining in America today. There has never been a time of greater tolerance for diverse sexual expression, recreational drug use, religious freedoms or alternative lifestyles. In 2024 you can be a tattooed queer polyamorist pagan who goes to Burning Man for a week and then returns to your corporate finance job on Monday.

But, all the "content for you" algorithms everywhere on the internet will have huge swaths of people afraid of their neighbor and society at large and believing they're under attack and marginalized.
One small catch, maybe even a constitutional hold up?

It's not really your home if you are obliged to sell it after x years.

The traditional societal compact with private property is that the property is yours for as long as you choose to keep it. (Providing you pay the taxes covering the costs to provide municipal services to your property.)

This kind of changes that, and I'm not sure it would stand up to constitutional scrutiny?

Amazing how prescient her talk is on so many levels -- things that in 1982 there were likely few folks really thinking about deeply and holistically.
Ideally you would design your architecture with the realization that every architecture will become inadequate over time. So basically, design things so you can rip out various parts of it when the time comes.

I'll probably get a copy, just because I might learn something interesting.

In the end, the point isn't to learn software architecture, it's to learn the thought process behind software architecture.
>Today, it looks like landlords using mathematical algorithms to align their rents."

It's unclear how that can ever be outlawed though. Given the classic supply/demand curve, everyone can theoretically independently derive the optimal price. Doing so would arguably be basic business acumen, and I'm not sure how the government can ban that without banning any sort of pricing research, or preventing businesses from setting prices. Realpage goes beyond this by pressuring landlords to accept their recommended price, and that's probably what got them in hot water, but they could probably have gotten away with it if they didn't do that.
We need to eradicate human biting mosquito species (which are only a tiny fraction of mosquito species) with release of sterile mates like we do with some other pests.
Most applications are designed for full screen on the common displays of their day. 1080p monitors are common enough that everybody still designs their apps for them and so you can use them less than full screen on a 4k monitor. Back when smaller monitors were common apps were designed for them and could be used tiled on 1080p monitors. If you can still find such an app it will work great tiled, but few projects allow for the idea that you might want to work on something else at the same time and so less than full screen is not something they allow UX to think about.

I feel like it's only possible to get excited about software anymore if it's open source and not in the control of some vendor. Not because I care a lot about the ideology of free software, it's just because the way corporations take over and ruin/sell out everything has been so demoralizing.
A Review of Pseudo-Labeling for Computer Vision
In the halls where shadows scheme,
Monopolists weave their golden dream,
Yet greed, a chain, tightens fast,
As echoes of justice grow at last.

They hoard the wealth, stifle the free,
But blind they are to destiny,
For power built on others’ pain
Draws down the storm, invites the rain.

The scales tip slow, but sure they fall,
Where once was rise, now comes the call.
No fortress high, no vault so deep,
Can hide the seeds that justice reaps.

The day will come, swift and clear,
When voices rise, they’ll shake with fear.
For in the end, truth takes its toll --
And chains of gold will break the soul.
When was this?

Have you paid attention to the percentage of wages required for a unit nationally? In your area?
Even if in a lot of cases the market would correct, it often takes a lot of time, and with a lot of negative externalities. Society bears the cost of that.
Delighted to see dokku on here. It's an amazing product and the founder is super humble and helpful.
I can't afford to throw much money at it now but it would be great if more people supported it financially
The motivation can come up discovery though. If there is something nefarious, you would expect the defense to bring it up during pre-trial motions (which are public, just not presented to the jury). The defense also has wide lattitude to bring up such issues to the jury (although they are often limited in what they can argue about it).

In some cases, selective prosecution is itself a defense; but (as you allude to) that is a very high bar for the defense to clear.
You want them to do it for free? Do you know how hard that is
Azure Kubernetes Wrangler (SRE) here, before I turn some LLM loose on my cluster, I need to know what it supports, how it supports it and how I can integrate into my workflow.

Videos show CrashLoopBackOff pod and analyzing logs. This works if Pod is writing to stdout but I've got some stuff doing straight to ElasticSearch. Does LLM speak Elastic Search? How about Log Files in the Pod? (Don't get me started on that nightmare)

You also show fixing by editing YAML in place. That's great except my FluxCD is going revert since you violated principle of "All goes through GitOps". So if you are going to change anything, you need to update the proper git repo. Also in said GitOps is Kustomize so hope you understand all interactions there.

Personally, the stuff that takes most troubleshooting time is Kubernetes infrastructure. Network CNI is acting up. Ingress Controller is missing proper path based routing. NetworkPolicy says No to Pod talking to PostGres Server. CertManager is on strike and certificate has expired. If LLM is quick at identifying those, it has some uses but selling me on "Dev made mistake with Pod Config" is likely not to move the needle because I'm really quick at identifying that.

Maybe I'm not the target market and target market is "Small Dev team that bought Kubernetes without realizing what they were signing up for"
I read the blog post as "everything's fine".

Tiling window managers are a niche, wanting to integrate them into a desktop environment is even more so, and the article mentions no less than 3 options for doing it.

For me, that's really good for a niche.

Personally, I am a lot more worried about the X11/Wayland situation, with the former being more or less deprecated, and the latter still having issues after all these years, and compositors and therefore window managers being a common point of issue.
Washington. But it also I think depends on which developer you are - seems like two developers here have 90%+ of the new developments.
What does that even mean, though? Data does not have a location. It's just information. The fact that "I live on 123 Oak Street" is data. It's not anywhere. How can you say that it's in a particular country? This post might be read by people all across the world. Now that information is in many different countries? Or none at all? Is it simply about where the physical hard drive containing a textual representation of that data is located? What makes that relevant?

These laws seem to have been written for the age of fax machines, not for today.

You are right; the arrest might be legal and even morally justifiable.

However, I still argue that wanting to provide secret communication (which Telegram actually doesn't do) is not abetting crime or helping it more than any other product.

In fact, in my humble opinion, it's the opposite: Private communications are a countermeasure against the natural tendency of governments to become tyrannical, and thus maintaining one is an act of heroism.
Yes and no. It's a reason why I use my own wm. I have a floating desktop and 9 tiling ones. By most of my browsing is on a tiling desktop that is usually single window but where I do want it to split if I open another window
You can have that transformation, but the issue is a person who goes on steroids and barely works out will realize bigger gains than a natural lifter who structures their entire life around optimizing their gains. Obviously the dedicated lifter on steroids will have the biggest gains, but it is a situation where anyone can get jacked by merely injecting themselves with stuff and not having an ounce of dedication.
You could probably set up some keylogging to see if anything special is happening before it, it'd also let you know for sure if it's a keyboard issue or not.
It seems niche. The service got rented by local biz trying to stand out or for some event where attendees needed additional info. Signage would be needed to tell the public where to tune in.

For someone to stumble across it, they'd have to already be tuned into it's broadcast frequency. I'll guess that the device's frequency gets set to an open slot on the local airwaves.
Then you could also sell it on my platform https://gitsell.dev for way less than the ~20% fee you pay leanpub.

That's what we are doing at Aide (shameless plug since I work on Aide)

I think using the LSP is not just a trivial task of grabbing definitions using the LSP, there is context management and the speed at which inference works. On top of it, we also have to grab similar snippets from the surrounding code (open files) so we generate code which belongs to your codebase.

Lots of interesting challenges but its a really fun space to work on.

This definition leaves out those in a bureaucracy who are only devoted to themselves. I assume since their personal devotions may or may not have to do with the goals of the organization or the organization itself that their impact cancels out.
Wild, I knew Frontier as an ISP in upstate NY that only provided DSL service with abysmal speeds. I assumed they would just die off, but I guess not.
I believe they are talking about the Dokku commands that are needed to set up a new Dokku app.

For example for a static site that would be the following:

dokku apps:create dewey.at
dokku domains:set dewey.at dewey.at www.dewey.at
dokku letsencrypt:enable dewey.at

That's also one of my wishes to get improved, currently I just have a long text file where I store them so that if I move servers I can just re-run them if needed.
That Zehnder unit is fantastic. The filter, not so much. (“ISO Fine” is IMO particularly embarrassing. It should say something more like “ISO ePM 1 40%”, and then buyers would think “40%? that’s lousy!”). Even the fancier ComfoWell filter is crap. And they’re overpriced, have lots of resistance, and don’t last long. You can confirm how poorly it works with a portable particle counter.

Get something like this if you have space:

https://www.hvacquick.com/products/residential/Air-Filters/P...

And consider putting it upstream of the Zehnder unit in the outdoor intake duct. Then it will extend your ISO Fine filter’s lifetime to effectively infinity. Or you could replace it with ISO Coarse. Or with nothing :)
Because most real-world problems are subject to hysteresis [1], and declarative systems fail very badly at modeling history.

A very simple example:

* install a server program, which for security is run as a dedicated (newly-created) user

* run the server program, which generates logs owned by that user.

* uninstall the server program - but the user must not be deleted while the log files exist

This example is simple enough that many declarative systems don't require too much massaging to handle it, but many more complicated examples exist.

Thanks for your effort!

But I need none of this. I want to open a REPL and type (dotimes (i 1000000) (print i)) - or anything morally equivalent ;-) - and I want it to do its job and the user interface to be responsive!! There were Lisp systems, which did this 40 years ago and there are some which can do it today: Execute simple plain Lisp code concurrently without any special instrumentation. Each REPL executes by default in its own thread, concurrently. I want the same for the other tools, too.

Execute (dotimes (i 1000000) (print i)) in the Emacs Lisp REPL. The UI is dead then. I find it strange that it is dead and I find it strange that there are people who don't find that strange. ;-)

> What kind of code is this that take >1 second in each repl? Out of curosity.

All kinds of stuff.

> Out of curosity.

Have you ever used a multithreaded Lisp environment as a primary work tool?
I am using the router my ISP provided, a Technicolor one, it happily handles over 500mb/s in both directions for a service sold as 500.
Honestly I was afraid of this, but when I walked up to the front desk to quit, I was given a clipboard with a single piece of paper. It was pretty painless.

My hobby includes a lot of large docker images, self-hosting a somewhat popular website, and attempting to get my file server serving as quickly as possible to the other places in my house.

I use a reasonable amount of bandwidth in my WFH job (and my partner does as well), but we're just barely topping out a 300Mbit connection right now. I think we could make use of gigabit during the burstiest periods, however.
I would rather have one 4:3 display than two 16:9 displays awkwardly stacked.
No one is forcing you to rent it
There are a lot of little things that daemons like gsettingsd handles, like resolution changes if you add a monitor or change the size of the window you're using your VM in, that you have to do manually if you are not using a desktop environment

I got tired of doing that stuff manually ten years ago, myself. when I plug in a USB stick I just want it to mount, I don't need to wind up reading the mount man page. I have shit to do.
just because they're not selling it now doesn't mean that they won't. there's nothing stopping them. money can make them.
Yeah, the existence of town pornhole is so important that either you need to guarantee starting towns get it, or you need to ban it outright. I believe most competitive play has it banned because of how powerful it is - but sometimes a scroll of town portal still appears ... or a shrine.

That was always one of the balance problems; the spells are either insanely powerful or absolutely useless. Summons boat

I love her sense of humor! One story she tells is about the world’s first computer bug [1], I had never heard it nor the history of the word.

She also mentions they were using computers to enhance satellite photos, it took 3 days to process but they could determine the height of waves in the middle of the pacific and the temperature 20 feet below the surface.

Why you should fail our interview

DD was great at the beginning, but over time they moved to value-based pricing.

It's sad but understandable that all the good monitoring tools move up the food chain.

This is cool, it’s just unfortunate that it’s necessary.

It would be nice to see more research into the role of “payor harm” in patient outcomes.
What I’ve seen happen is that people pay Datadog and, for some reason or another, they:

1. Cannot really get the whole team on Datadog onboarding (Development too, not just “Infra”), so there are these really deep gaps that will never, ever be covered.

2. Don’t use all the services they pay for: “Oh, these CI/CD observability pipelines thing that costs us half our infrastructure? Yeah, I suppose they run fine.”, “Oh, these Profile Hosts? Yeah, just in case we use them, although it was 11 months the last time we did use them...”

3. Pay in excess for services they don’t take advantage of because of #1.

4. Cannot allocate time to follow through with their Account Manager and apply the spending suggestions they sometimes make. “Hey, you’re spending tons on Profile Hosts, but I don’t see usage. Have you looked into that? Oh, yeah, some day we will...”

I would definitely not call them useless, but gosh they are expensive for the minimum of things, which I agree if you cannot commit to the points above, you might as well setup your own Prometheus + Grafana + Loki + Mimir + Tempo stack and see what you can come up with, or even try one of the other alternatives I’ve seen around, like SigNoz[1].

I hope so. I liked my KDE + XMonad setup, but picom really made my PC slow. A 100% KDE solution would be perfect, as I'm not a XMonad power user
I bought a bunch of 2x10gbit/4x2.5gbit switches as well but I'm in a townhouse with four floors and it's a small challenge to distribute that bandwidth. We have individual runs to each room, but part of my network is built on older in-wall UniFi wifi nodes that have their own PoE needs and top out at 1Gbit themselves.

The problem is that there's just a lot of home infrastructure that requires upgrading before I can get to this point. I could get 10Gbit to the UDM no problem, but then I need to install the 10Gbit cards in my file server that are sitting on top of it, swap out a 1Gb mikrotik that routes all the home server traffic, etc etc etc
It seems like you're saying "I don't know how they'd do a thing they're not trying to do." I wouldn't read too much into the slight vagueness around the distinction between just setting prices with the information available versus what Realpage was actually doing (as you describe) – I'm sure the case itself will draw such a distinction pretty well.
This is one of my pet peeves as a visually impaired person. Basically nothing scales right for me anymore. Apps and websites designed for desktops have such insane padding that when I scale them up, basic information is truncated.

By the time they're easily readable for me, 'progressive' websites go into mobile mode and do things like collapse their (non-resizeable) sidebars. Last week I tried to cut down on excess padding in a sidebar by resizing it and literally watched it go from 40% excess/wasted horizontal space to completely collapsed and hidden behind another click (and thus unusable with keyboard friendly addons like Pentadactyl).
My server struggles a bit with the load on the WordPress site. You should be fine just reloading. I will make sure to improve things for the next time!

It's absolutely not, and it's foolish to try to treat anything online as "just a string of text", as if the actual content and intent didn't matter.
Why would you have your demo video set to "unlisted"? (on what appears to be your official channel) I'd think you'd want to show up in as many places as possible
My impression is that most Git LFS users trust the SLAs of their cloud hosts for git (and thus git LFS), the SLAs of whatever their large blob backplane is (S3 or R2 or one of the OpenStack S3 clones or whatever) plus the IAM dance to use it, and/or use the usual S3/R2/OpenStack backup tools.
Oh nice, `:` does work:) I thought that wouldn't work because it was a shell built-in. Thanks!
> Hospitals and insurances should be fined if they have a high ratio of claims that get rejected first and reversed after appeal

They'd just invest more in not having to reverse on appeal. Handling these kinds of incentives with rules and strictures gets messy fast.
If you need this speed you should be hardwired not of wifi IMHO. Great for servers. Preferably use fiber to the servers not 10gb Ethernet. I've been meaning to run fiber to my outbuildings, may as well go 10gb+ for that, it doesn't cost much more.
