IIRC, the pool is effectively RAID0 over vdevs: if any single vdev dies - whole pool dies. Do i remember this correctly? So if over the years I got, say, five disks of varying quality - I shouldn't add them to a pool as five individual

Oh, thanks for pointing me to it! And thanks for the comment. Indeed, I was thinking about countries like Russia, where US three-letter agencies don't have extradition power, as far as I know (thinking about Snowden). Countries like me

I'm not familiar with rclone and syncthing, but compared to rsync, it can, for example, detect renamed/moved files/dirs and read locked files on Windows (via Volume Shadow Copies). Also, you might have a look at "Which f

Things might've changed since then, but back in 2009 it was Chromium who disabled bzip2 compression after some ISPs were borking bzip2-compressed pages[1] (although it's mot entirely clear if it was indeed the reason for dropping

that's true, but, to be fair, it might be easier to order an anti-hacker CIA background check for a contracted company of 100+ employees, than for a 10,000 pseudo-anonymous github users.

Nice stuff! A bit of feedback, if I may: * maybe it worth showing some feedback when AI is thinking/composing the answer vs. when it's already finished. Currently, on my machine words appear rather slowly, so it's not always

Can't reproduce. On my machine, it's a bit smarter: User: implement a python function that takes two numbers and return the sum Assistant: def sum(number1, number2): return number1 + number2 Output: number1 + number

I did it! For every two numbers, calc.shpakovsky.ru has a static(-looking) webpage showing their sum (or difference, etc). Together with links to several other pages. The only limitation I know of is 4k URL length. Interestingly enough, maj

I think they do now? At least, on Google, I now get two similarly-looking buttons: "Reject all" and "Accept all" next to each other, with a small "More options" link underneath. Pretty close to what's show

I used `git gui` for that (not sure how "native" to git is it, though), and recently switched to `gitg` for both looking at tree and committing individual lines. Can't compare them with SourceTree, though, since haven't

re: gzipping the db itself - yep, I tried and saw the same effect as you did: about half a size. I think it's because of indexes (I once played with sqlite3_analyzer[1] and on some databases it showed about half of disk space was used
