This could easily be an episode from Snowfall ( https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6439752/ ), the rather excellent TV show about the early days of the crack cocaine epidemic in Los Angeles during the beginning of the 198

There's a really, really interesting talk on a project called Waterpark, which features Rendezvous Hashing (also known as Highest Random Weight, or HRW, hashing) as a stateless alternative to Consistent Hashing for routing and distribu

It's a fair call

Congrats on the launch. Looks interesting, though maybe a tad dry. Love the authenticity though. Have wish listed it and will keep an eye out.

Mate, this is really cool. Definitely a throw back to a different time.

100%. I really wish that I could treat them as a valid option, but they continuously reaffirm the position that it is dangerous to rely on them for anything commercial.

Yep, agree 100%. Such a stupid move on their behalf.

That all depends on the balance of power ...

What. The. Actual. Fuck! Apologies for the cursing, but that is the most bat shit insane demo I have ever seen. I'll just leave you with the top comment on the video: "Witches have been burnt for lesser sorcery"

Yeah, I get this even with SOC2 Type 2 & ISO 27001 ... the requests never stop.

I'm a paying Udemy customer and they STILL have not acknowledged the recent data leak / hack - and I've asked them twice. Shitty customer service.

Is there anywhere that provides a good overview of the various OS protection technologies/approaches that exist and which OSes have implemented them?

This is pretty crazy. The largest of the applications is the shell: bare Interactive shell with line editing, history, completion, nicks, multi-pipes, redirects, here-strings, abbreviations, undo, smart hotkeys ~16k (lines) ~150KB (size)

But then we have ports/NIFs etc that shell out to Rust & Zig ...

Do you mean config and runtime variables etc (i.e. in Phoenix)?

Can anyone comment on the performance vs stock PS5??

I'm stuck on my first attempt. Maybe I'll try again, but it is very rare for me to not finish a book.

Yeah, I did the same for roughly 6 months and I don't think that I felt better .. I just never felt SHIT.

A previous company I was at did this on the primary. It always seemed to work, but no one was really comfortable with it, largely because there wasn't too much ZFS experience at the time and also because the process did not coalesce th

I haven't migrated to IncusOS just yet, but I use Incus on a server and have been pretty happy so far.

Congrats on launching something (more than most of us will ever manage), but I am struggling to see why I would use this over something with more backing. There are a number of similar projects that have a very similar goal, but have the su

by abrookewood 6mo ago
They are vastly different. Incus is aimed at providing a minimal, immutable Os for the hosting of VMs & containers. nixOS provides a full linux OS that is reproducible and declarative.

Hey thanks for those tips. I just installed Ice and Thaw is a fork that is maintained, so I'll try that out. I have my dock on the left already, and have heard about Rectangle, but haven't tried it yet.

Windows is a dumpster fire at this point. Just unusable

I've just moved to a Mac for the first time, after using Windows for work for decades and Linux as my primary desktop for about 3 or 4 years. It certainly takes some getting use to: - Keyboard shortcuts are all different - Doesn'

This problem exists to some degree for all cloud services. Is there a solution based on the credit card used? Can you get a CC that has a hard limit guarantee? EDIT: I guess that you'd still be responsible for the charges though.

by abrookewood 6mo ago
Because everyone burns through their limits much faster, forcing them to upgrade to higher limits or new tiers.

Given the subject matter, it would be highly unethical to reveal the name of the company before verifying it was indeed fixed. I'd be wary of getting sued.

Machines can quickly build repeatable, efficient, 'perfect' clothing - but people still knit.
