I'm not sure if 20k lines of code and and writing a controller on k8s are really that incompatible. kubebuilder has made it pretty approachable.

vaxry is quite edgy, doesn't believe in structural marginalization and is also part of the anti-CoC crowd. i think this blog post is all you need to read if you want to know if you specifically want to engage with this community: ht

Showed up to a doctors appointment during their lunch break once because iCal supports the time format "TZ is whatever is local, trust me" and the device I used to add an appointment was set to UTC, not UTC+1. My doctors calendar

Considering CS Falcon causes your performance to drop by about half and does the same to your battery life, I doubt they have any sort of QA that cares about anything but hitting stakeholder goals.

This feels like it's undermining channels, the feature go really wants you to use in other places too (but people tend to still use mutexes). Channels aren't quite as lazy (if you use an unbuffered one you supply one element in ad

We're slowly moving from pathologizing difference to acknowledging that people outside the normative still need support to survive our very normative society without developing adjacent issues, particularly mental health problems. That

The question was aimed at finding out if their objection was to taxes in general. Which seems to be the case, since they called me a communist!

Do you oppose tobacco tax - nicotine and tobacco smoke being considered almost universally bad - on the same grounds, or is sugar different?

Windows on ARM was already very decent on virtualized Apple Silicon, running x86 binaries without much fuzz, they sure have been working on it in the background ever since Windows RT.

The AI hype relies on most common people misunderstanding what's in front of them. I've seen business people write prompts. They don't understand the limitations or strengths. They tell the model it has a degree in something,

Power isn't cheap, and inefficient is an understatement. In the heatwave last week in Germany I managed to get ours to cool a tiny bedroom from 30 to maybe 26 degrees Celsius. Doesn't help that in new construction outer walls are

there's two kinds of teams calls. the kind attached to a meeting is hosted on an actual server and the one where you call someone directly is some p2p mess that is a lot less reliable (and doesn't work on those browsers).

for anyone that has been spared, teams is the kind of product where you have to make an appointment for an ad-hoc meeting, or you'll be stuck in some unreliable p2p skype call that doesn't work on anything but chrome or edge.

Nice, the exact framing Apple wants. Too bad the EU isn't going to pick the poor billion dollar corporation over their market watchdogs in a popularity contest. That's more of a tactic for the US market.

Normal people use Netflix (especially when DRM was first introduced) and watch YouTube. The reason Mozilla can even still hold 10% market share in places like Germany is that they're much more compatible with the monopolist than you&#x

The Screen Time API extends a little beyond what you get with built-in Screen Time, like the ability to hide apps. It's still a bit funny that this product bashes Screen Time for being too easy to bypass when you could also just set a

Maybe you want to re-confirm that. In the late 2000s Sony Ericsson had a line of phones that had a focus on (then) high end integrated cameras called the C-Series, the C standing for Cybershot.

Go isn't Java, especially after the rewrite in 1.5 (and smaller scale changes in 1.19) the GC doesn't pause long or often enough to affect throughput.
