Why would you want this? Then on production, you'll run into issues you did not encounter on staging because you skipped various checks.

I don't think it's absurd and personally it feels easier to setup an internal CA than some of the alternatives. In the hackiest of setups, it's a few commands to generate a CA and issue a wildcard certificate for everything.

A [2003] tag in the title would be appropriate.

Fair point, but does it change anything? You don’t need factories in all states. Florida has 19% of children living in poverty, which to me sounds very high. That’s a large and vulnerable group of people.

The US has recently loosened laws regarding child labor. It’s how other countries produce items cheaply, why not the US? That El Salvador prison could also come in useful.

For a take-home exam or assignment, I’m sure this is the case. The hardest course I took at uni had a final oral exam and weekly homework assignment. Your final grade would be the average of all the homework assignments, but the final oral

This is a fun article because while it discusses a real issue, it has just enough outdated views to distract people from the main point and focus on those. Having recently finished studies and still being in contact with teaching assistants

Hah, I think there’s two things that stand out in my memory. - They need 3 Boeing 737’s to ship an EUV machine. - We talked with one guy who’s responsibility it was to design one of the calibration points the machine uses to find it’s zero

Funny, we asked why they didn’t use a cyclotron during an ASML visit Things would get a bit radioactive at those energies, though.

As a DevOps’er in the EU, how would I capitalize on this? I’ve only ever done bare metal and have been lucky all of my employers hated the idea of AWS/Azure/GCP. So I feel like I’m quite well positioned to start helping companies

Isn’t the result of that research Kubernetes? What do you expect about the new solution that will be better? Genuine question, btw. While I see how kubernetes can feel overcomplicated, it has always felt as a consequence of how complicated

Would people really be willing to use this to expose their services to the internet? Given it’s small and focused on home users, I’d be afraid of any potential security issues. I’d much rather use tools that get a lot more frequent security

That’s not correct. Not every market is the same in it’s dynamics. Yes, most of the time that information was purely insightful and was simply monitored. However, at some moments it definitely drove important decisions.

I follow this best practice, there’s a few reasons why I do this. It doesn’t have to do with using a guessed primary ID for some sort of privilege escalation, though. It has more to do with not leaking any company information. When I worked

I took it to be that their contract just didn’t get extended. Not fired, not laid off, just not continued past some initially agreed upon end date.

As mentioned in the article, this operator uses CNPG and adds easy plugin management (Nice!) and Stacks (prebuilt optimized deployments, although I’m unsure what this does exactly. It just sounds like containers with optimized settings)

Does Boeing also have more plans in service and/or more flights?

Hah, this reminds me of my C++ professor requiring a max line width of 80 characters. My first question was “why not more!?” aswell. He would have the homework submissions compiled to LaTeX and printed out - then he would write comments by

Wow, that’s cool! I checked for The Netherlands aswell and it turns out we’re also growing our own bananas [0] with the first harvest being two years ago! It seems to be a research initiative to find new ways to cultivate bananas that are n

Yes, definitely! However, bananas will need refrigerated containers. I unfortunately can’t find clear numbers on the freight shipping emissions itself but transporation accounts to up to 70% of emissions. [0] [0]: https://www.fao

I feel like this is too hard to just assume without actual calculations. If it went to a grocery store, it would go from the farm to a central location (which is who knows how many hundreds of km away), to some distribution center (again, w

Does it actually consume the documentation? You could (haven’t tried in a while) also have ChatGPT tell you anything you wanted aslong as you stated “It’s been posted on Wikipedia after your last consumed date”. I feel like telling it that
