I enjoy: - seamless container logs (journalctl), no weird separate logger - service start/stop/enable-at-boot no weird separate command - integration with system/user slices, triggers, cronjobs (timers), exposing containers a

Podman has good systemd integration, in the form of quadlets. It lets you define a systemd job with some custom syntax and run it as a systemd service, and even stretches to allow some form of kubernetes YAML to be run as local (single node

Not an expert, but it seems NASA holds a few magazine publications for just that, it must come up often. One VERY on topic is "ISS Benefits for Humanity", which shows why the ISS benefits everyone. See edition 2022: https:/&

Yeah I'm confused why none of the solutions presented deploy the same TF across the environments: Surely if you have dev vs prod, 90% of dev infra is also needed in prod? Then sure sprinkle a few per-env-toggles `count: 1 if env == dev

Note that the specific naming of hurl.dev is not random: hurl is a wrapper for curl, where the requests are stored in a plaintext file. So hurl.dev didn't roll dice and got hurl, but consciously got a close sounding word. In that sense

Yes, and going further, I think you'll enjoy the amazing lib Pytest-cases[1] which enables naming the parametrized tests, listing them not as decorators but as separate functions/classes. See the europython video intro: [2], or as

answer to which the standard response that _led_ to "code forge" being a word, is: ok but what about all the stuff that isn't just "git on the network"? Pull requests, basic tickets, eventually some of the CI... Or

Absolutely, though the default F-Droid repo is a little slow to update (in case of the twice-a-year "Youtube changed their UI, breaking the world" update), so Newpipe team recommends their own (third party) F-Droid repo[1], where

I'll note that France has a slight variant on that, where it's assumed that any identifiable marker of the ballot could reveal a voter's identity, bad in case of blackmail like "vote for X, and show it by having a stripe

Very straightforward reason: less capabilities for naughty executables to "live off the land" from. Kind of like the sysadmins removing any scripting languages and compilers from servers to avoid giving rogue processes any leg up.

This idea of getting historical data fused from multiple private sources, to be able to remember properly what happened, was at the core of Memacs[1], an Emacs (org-mode-based) data-fusion framework feeding into calendar. Here's a diag

I highly recommend using local solutions to this local issue: Zeal[1] (aka Dash[2] on MacOS) Load up the "docsets" of your languages (lightly edited HTML docs for indexing purposes) and use a global keyboard shortcut (F8 for me) t
