There is good evidence that demodex are one of the causes of rosacea, so they are likely not as beneficial or benign as the article makes out. Some dermatologists are prescribing ivermectin cream (yes, the "horse paste" antiparasi

Note that potatoes have a very high GI - for example, eating mashed potato will badly spike your blood sugar, about the same as if you'd literally eaten pure sugar. This is a bad idea.

If TTLs can be arbitrary lengths, wouldn't setting them to high values (a week, month, year, whatever) allow you to implement whatever manual override mechanism you wanted?

Have you looked at Azure Blob Storage's lock feature? Could that be used?
908.
by GordonS 4y ago
Ah, someone mentioned it in reference to Azure Blob Storage recently, and I had (apparently incorrectly) assumed it was also an S3 feature. Any reason Azure Blob Storage couldn't be used as a no-setup, managed, cheap way to acquire dis

Random thought - doesn't S3 have a leasing/locking system that could be used for distributed locks?

It sounds and looks like "poopy", and makes me think of poo.

The article is one-sided... but are there honestly any good arguments in favour?

I thought it was a very well written and engaging piece. Given that this ludicrous legislation was, undoubtedly , pushed for by the Home Office and shadowy security apparatus, it seems plain to me that those same groups will have access to

Microsoft also said it was coming in NET 6, NET 5, Dotnet Core 3... Hopefully they actually mean it this time!

I don't understand; are you claiming that anyone who ever takes antibiotics is putting themselves at risk of developing autoimmune conditions?

Interesting, how long is a course for you, and what dosage please?

by GordonS 4y ago
I was bitten by a tic when I was a kid, maybe 30 years back, got the target rash, went to the doctor and got some antibiotics - no idea which ones, and IIRC I didn't take the full course. Around 5 years later I got reactive hypoglycemi

Was going to say the same thing. IMO the snap concept would make it worth learning something new for some use cases - but forced automatic snap updates, high memory usage, long startup times and permission issues are not selling it. Moreo

I took a quick look at your landing page, and I've got to say it doesn't do that great a job of telling me what it is or how it works. Are you able to provide a short summary, and maybe compare it to Ubuntu Core and BalenaOS? Woul

No issue with Canonical making some money from their OSS efforts, but as-is the pricing seems crazy. At the least, I wish they'd do something like make brand stores free for less than 100 devices. That would also serve to hook people i

Aren't they only using it for security updates though?

I like Ubuntu, and looked into using Ubuntu Core for an IoT architecture a few years ago - but the "brand store", which IIRC is mandatory for private deployments, are complete madness. Plus, while the concept behind Snaps is int

Also keen to see something like this. Firefox surely (hopefully!!) isn't going to block cookies across subdomains, or a whole bunch of things are going to break. Would love to see confirmation though...

dotTrace fantastic, really essential for performance profiling. Likewise, dotMemory is really good when trying to reduce or understand memory usage (tho dotTrace does have some memory tooling too). I've been happily paying for a JetBra

I don't really get the hate for regular regex syntax. And certainly to my eyes, this doesn't look any better to work with that regex. Take the capturing groups sample, is this really meant to be an improvement?! Rulex: ``` :([s]
