We have a couple mainframes at work, had an incident last year when someone forgot to apply a new license to one. p1, no payments happening. I was kinda stunned; there’s a level of balls involved in selling an x millions machine and having

Well I looked it up; nginx, apparently, uses ketama -- it's a ring-style hash probably works better for web backends than the jch above, as when given [0,1,2,3] and replacing the server in slot 1 you're going to have a lot of hash

Anyone have an idea how it behaves differently from google's jump hash algorithm? The cool thing about google's one is it's so short I can include it in a HN comment: int32_t JumpConsistentHash(uint64_t key, int32_t num

This comes with age, too. In my 20’s and early 30’s i wanted to work places where I felt this cultural and work fit since work was a bigger part of my life — but now I’m in my 40’s that shifted just want to get paid as much as possible and

In Germany at least if you've held the coin(s) for 7 years before selling you don't need to pay tax on the profit. Not sure how this applies to donations though, and of course this will almost certainly be changed in the future, .

What well known data-losing bugs are there in zfs? It can be slow, and resource hungry, but afaik it's about as safe as they come (and I've been using it in prod since solaris 10)

It looks like all he managed to do was setup a wifi access point on a laptop and connect a kettle to it... That's 'hacking' these days is it?

NV gives out a $100 to Party A, who puts it in their bank. Bank takes $90 of that deposit (assuming 10% fractional reserve rule, no idea what the actual number is), and loans it out to party B, who pays it into either the same or another ba

I can't quit it. When I do, after about 2 weeks I completely lose the ability to be a good worker bee and sit in my open plan office,and hide my contempt for the absolute rank ineptitude of almost everyone else there. Load me up with t

Because it’s TOS violation. Anthropic have no agreed tos with the websites they’re scraping. The accounts being used to distill Anthropic’s models are all bound by their terms

you can buy a book, scan it, and upload the counts of every letter, distribution of apostophies, use it as the input to some convoluted process to produce weights or a search index though. They got slapped for illegally obtaining the files,

Yep. I have one hanging off an openbsd machine on a tailnet, took me like... 5 minutes to update it, and it's not exactly a common setup...

I always thought when people mentioned a “legal pad” in us tv shows they were referring to the colour which always for some inexplicable reason seemed to be… yellow or blue… now i know…

Sure about that? The effort put into a leetcode medium or hard is usually way above the kind of code i’m mostly doing at work — and realistically i only have at most 2 hours a day of that level of work in me, the rest is the autopilot code

This is not correct, stable is a dev branch, so you’ve been running your 24/7 machines off of unreleased code: “FreeBSD-STABLE is the development branch from which major releases are made.” ( https://docs.freebsd.org/en&

I'd like more control where my money goes. I'd happily spend the time every year deciding what % of my contribution goes where, and it would be more democratic. I'm happy to have sewers, police, schools, infrastructure and so

The OECD calculates Germany's 2025 tax wedge at 49.3%. That's the second highest behind belgium. So we get to work for the state about half the time (including VAT etc), and on-top of it thanks to the Merz masterstroke we'r

I have a feeling that the majority of AFD voters simply want some kind of change and action on what they are seeing happen in Germany. I'm definitely not one of them, (and being an auslander myself I have skin in this game) -- this is
