I worked for an airline fare pricing startup. The key to getting a lower fare is to not be flying for business. Since airlines can't outright ask you if you're flying business, they'll instead offer tradeoffs that a business

Helm gives you more than enough rope to hang yourself with. At $dayjob we barely use 3rd party helm charts, and when we do we eventually run into problems with clever code. We do package our own helm charts, not in the least because we sig

I had a similar experience. After running `guix pull` a couple of times on an ancient laptop I shelved the project until I made a distcc cluster (I never did).

This is how Kafka does it. Kafka has spent years working on the rough edges (e.g. partition resizing), haven't used it recently though.

> You can rsync a JSON file just as you can rsync a SQLite file.... `sqlite-rsync` does a deep comparison and only transmits new rows, without deleting other data. `rsync` on a json file just replaces the file.

I use pass[0] which uses a flat directory structure and git. It works great! At $dayjob we have json lockfiles committed to git and merges get pretty gnarly. Not as big of a fan of just dropping it all in json. The toml lockfiles are a

Skimmed the readme, seems like it's not AEAD? I don't see any reason to use a tool that's not AEAD. Also, while I get the appeal of just storing it all in a giant JSON, I don't really feel that's the final word in

Writing C code that performs this fast doubling algorithm for Fibonacci numbers was actually quite fun. Highly recommend it. In my experience where I didn't modulo the numbers, the compute time was dominated by the last couple of mult

The submitted link might be better changed to the actual release notes: https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/kea/-/wikis/Release-Note... which start with this information.

I thought so too, but later on in the paper they mention that they performed necropsy on the mice that survived. > samples from surviving mice on day 12 were also obtained through necropsy to measure viral titers.

The paper is interesting, but it doesn't seem to be supporting your title? I'm just past the part where they showed 100% infection rate in mice.

You're right, the law text doesn't specifically call out the Windows operating system or the Linux operating system. The example you gave of Open Source Windows drivers is valid. The Grandparent's point about that "it d

A couple of years ago, I was researching modern food science (for unrelated reasons). What really struck me was how focused we are on product longevity. Everything must have low available water in order to survive warehouses, transit, and

Well written! Would you mind sharing how you came up with the "middle out" numbering system? I can never seem to come up with something this inspired when I'm doing math problems by myself.

I just read the article and feel I learned nothing. It's all the obvious lessons, without any real implementation advice. Am I the wrong audience?

`sqlite3_rsync` must be installed on the remote host too, so now you're cross-compiling for all the hosts you manage. It also must be installed into the PATH the ssh uses, which for a number of operating systems doesn't include &

Yeah, but unfortunately the SQLite team doesn't include that tool with their "autotools" tarball, which is what most distros (and brew) use to package SQLite. The only way to use the tool is to compile it yourself.

> only one allocation per node I believe the implication is there's fewer than one allocation per node with the new API. You allocate contiguous memory once, and use it to store n elements.

I solve most of those issues with a Docker Bakefile; I'm confident I could solve the rest with Bakefiles if I had to. Reasonable developer experience.

I think Yarn zero install is now the default, and does the same thing you're advocating? I'm not really a JS person, but it looks like it's done reasonably competently (validating checksums etc).
