You seem to be excessively agitated by this thread. As per another sibling comment, I also tried to find the actual extension file that was the cause of this problem -- and could not. It may well be a third party author, rather than direct

From the article: "Full-spectrum LEDs seem to output about 75 lumens per watt, so if our panel is 20k lumens then we should expect our panel to draw 266 watts. This seems reasonable to me. If you leave it on 8 hours a day, you’re going

Yeah, there's certainly some fuzzy borders that delineate the various domains of deployment, fleet orchestration , config management, BCP, etc. Similar to author of TFA, I use Consul & Nomad and config management (in my case Salt)

Having dabbled with Ansible and Saltstack -- and much preferring the latter -- it's very sad that Ansible has seemingly won most of the sentiment amongst the demographic of people who didn't want Ruby / DSL, but preferred Pyt

Is this the Green party that does not, and never has, held power here in AU? It feels like a bit of a stretch, given the major sources of funds to the two largest political parties, and the various leaders of same who are consistently on re
