When will I be able to buy this?
17464.
by LinuxBender 8y ago
That is in fact my point. There are no free services.
17465.
by LinuxBender 8y ago
I would consider something free if nobody had to pay anything for it.

What is a gold-standard study?

Google maps is not free. The end user will perceive it is free, but businesses will become dependent on embedding google maps into their site, then will have to pay for said maps. This actually came up recently. The same is true for email

I have found thousands of studies on nih.gov (pubmed) that suggest there are many benefits to omega-3. I have also found a few studies that suggest over-use can increase risk of a stroke. Beyond that, I don't know why these terse arti

Enterprise distros such as Redhat fork the kernel, then patch for bugs and vulnerabilities, to avoid adding too many new features to a major version release of the OS. This actually makes a lot of sense from a stability and predictability

Each of the memory settings are described in the kernel sysctl [1] documentation. The goal is to create a larger margin for user error or lack of memory budgeting. This often precludes ever needing swap and forces user space applications

For sure, any system level changes should be tested extensively to determine pros and cons. Performance testing should ideally be a part of the QA process. We found THP to be nothing but trouble on our systems across a myriad of applicati

Agreed. I tried to use it on centos 6 but it was very incomplete. The kernel is just too old. I started using kernels from elrepo to work around this, but not many will do that in a production environment.

Oh nice! Do you happen to know if those patches have been accepted into RHEL7?

I like the idea of using email for this. Are your users signing their commits and does the git server validate the commits when receiving the emails?
17476.
by LinuxBender 8y ago
That is entirely possible. Each person will have to decide based on the environment they are in if this is advantageous or not. If you are swimming with sharks, perhaps skip directly to glassdoor and finding new opportunities.

That looks like an interesting way to intercept vmscan's oom killer. I prefer to avoid it all together. I prefer to set vm.overcommit_ratio=0 and then increase vm.vfs_cache_pressure to somewhere between 400 and 10000 depending on the

Perhaps first document everything, daily, with timestamps and no emotion. Provide the documents to HR. If they side with the sociopath, then leave the company and document it on glassdoor so that others are less likely to go there.

For my hobby stuff I am similar. Perl and either SQLite or Text files. Sometimes Postgres, but I rarely find it is needed, even for fairly popular anonymous boards. I use vi. I do use git locally, but I don't trust it, so I also us

Apple is rather broad as well.

I am ok with the fees. I suppose I could create a business model and even use a funding site to get more interest. Perhaps there are a handful of other hobbyists that could benefit as well. I agree this is non trivial. That said, I have

Exactly. You can forward traffic from DoH to TLS upstream servers, or servers sitting in tier-1 networks that are well outside of your ISP.

That looks interesting, but I would also like to see a read-only rsync endpoint that I could grab the zones (raw) or formatted zone data.

You can also configure unbound to prefetch records that are about to expire that the user has recently requested. This can reduce human pattern recognition and correlation. Do this on your upstream servers as well. Read up on "targe

That is not a dumb question at all. Running your own servers gives you control over your DNS, your cache and where it is directed upstream.

That would not be far fetched, actually. Their technology clearly rivals anything we have today. 5 of the pyramids contain graphite waveguides that produce small amounts of focused nuclear radiation. The base contain piezoelectric water

That would be a great start. One of the ways malicious people circumvent that is to leverage the scripting that many of the games support. I have dug into many games that use LUA scripting and have appalling security practices. The worse

In some cases it does matter. There is a local PC store that is very overpriced, but they will build custom machines to your spec. I used to build my own machines as a hobby, but I just really don't have time for that any more. Not
