I've gotten used to ss now, and I quite like it, I just wish there was an option to not show the send/recv numbers. I never use them and the width is already so wide that the output barely fits into most terminals when you have th

What I find cute is that every year on the 21st of december a small number of modern day pagans and nature lovers gather at Ales Stenar here in southern Sweden and watch the sun rise over the center stone of the "ship". We bring t

I'll never forget a past job where they used a lot of Excel in ways I did not know was possible. First of all they had an invoicing system in Excel, that pulled in data using VBS, into Excel templates, and at the press of a button in t

Poorly worded by the person you replied to. I hope they meant that the military could give them the discipline and structure their parents were unable to. Of course it depends on what military we're talking here, considering the situat

Haha this is the problem, we're taxing work instead of taxing wealth. If AI is generating wealth for someone, should we tax it?

I can imagine that using eBPF will be faster, but I never really imagined SElinux as slow myself. I guess it's because of all the files that need to be opened, and updating policy. They probably mean for hyper scaling environments SEli

I wish you the best of luck, truly. But I have written C in the past, it was almost 20 years ago, and everything seemed to work fine, until the memory leaks. Of course today I would ask the AI, why is my program leaking memory. I think you

by INTPenis 10mo ago
Because I don't know C well enough. My philosophy regarding AI is that you should never have it do something you couldn't do yourself. Of course people break this rule, or the concept of vibe coding wouldn't exist. But some o

Perl was my first favourite programming language, used it for most things, from 1999 until switching to Python in 2012. I still find the occasional Perl script in my current job, usually going through someone's legacy infrastructure, a

It's starting to sound a lot like k8s to me. :D Technically I could allow my web proxy to discover my services today already, but I refuse to have Traefik (in my case) running as the same user as my services. I prefer to only let them

by INTPenis 10mo ago
We have similar backgrounds, and I totally agree with your k8s sentiment. But I wonder what this solves? Because I stopped abusing k8s and started using more container hosts with quadlets instead, using Ansible or Terraform depending on wha

I never said microservices were a solution, I said a service-oriented architecture is a giant leap forwards for a legacy platform. This whole thread is about how microservices are often abused when they're not necessary, and to clarify

Try 20+ year of git history. (yes they migrated to git from svn). The biggest obstacle is changing people's mindsets from legacy programming to modern DevOps workflow. Making them believe it's worth the effort.

I'm helping a company get out of legacy hell right now. And instead of saying we need microservices, let's start with just a service oriented architecture. That would be a huge step forward. Most companies should be perfectly fine

I've been using Gemini CLI for months now, mainly because we have a free subscription for it through work. Tip 1, it consistently ignores my GEMINI.md file, both global and local. Even though it's always saying that "1 GEMINI

PF is also from 2001. But its roots go further back, I once used a very PF-like syntax on a Unix firewall from 1997. I forget which type of Unix it was, maybe Solaris. Either way, I don't think there is any defense for the strange synt

by INTPenis 11mo ago
I've used both and the main advantage is PF/ipfw syntax. But now with nftables I actually am going back to RHEL on Firewalls. I want something ultra-stable and long lived.

It is more expensive than for example IKEA glasses, but I swear by Duralex. Ever since an IKEA glass spontaneously exploded on my desk. I suddenly remembered we used Duralex at school in Sweden in the 90s, so I ordered brand new Duralex gla

I've been linux gaming for decades so I'm not a good metric here. But I recently installed Bazzite on my gaming PC, and with Steam Big Picture mode, and Steam Controller mode, it's just like a Steam Machine now. Except it has

Do you have anything for device management? Like managing local admin accounts on Linux, Macintosh and Windows? I'm afraid we'll have to use InTune.

Most of my friends here in Sweden use Signal. But on the rare occasions that we had to switch back to messages lately, for example when Signal was down, I noticed RCS has been working flawlessly. It's quite the nice surprise because it

I think it's a great quote. Even bsky is part of the problem until regular people can host nodes in it. Fedi is never going to be consistent, but it's also always going to be accessible to everyone. And therefore truly by the peop

In my personal experience the number of stickers on a laptop is directly proportional to the owner's ability to have fun, or even get a joke.
