Binding arbitration often does rule in favor of the users. Famously, Uber was buried with arbitration cases that went in favor of drivers.

Haber-Bosch is the reason there are over 7 billion humans on Earth instead of closer to 2 billion. It's very difficult for any digital technology to compete with that.

My first soldering iron was the one from Harbor Freight. No kit there either, I had to look up a list of stuff to buy.

If you buy direct from Pine64, you can get a stand for an extra two bucks. A brass sponge is what, another two dollars? And many hackers likely already have a GaN charger or Apple charger.

Could you link some resources on critiques of Airflow? I have some colleagues using it and knowing of any impending footguns would be helpful.

y copy of DCS World (a popular combat flight sim) is around is 426GB. This is positively featherweight for the genre.

I used this approach as well for my personal site. I made a shell script to build out the complete HTML files which can be served as static content using a no-server host of choice. Currently I'm using GitHub Pages behind CloudFlare fo

In high school through about 2010 I helped organize LAN parties. It was an underground thing. We had our own caching servers and networking equipment so two dozen rigs wouldn't overwhelm our hosts' internet. It was as much about s

Generally with scratch images you build in a less weird environment, then copy your application's files into a scratch image. https://docs.docker.com/build/guide/multi-stage/

Main reason I can think of is you are a kernel developer and you have broken your own kernel in such a way that the regular reboot hangs.

If you are optimizing for image size, Alpine is not the best choice. For example, Distroless ( https://github.com/GoogleContainerTools/distroless ) has options 50% smaller than Alpine.

I did manually clone from GitHub and build myself and download the model separately. I also noticed that many of the CLI flags the author chose are questionable after I read the docs and help text.

You can clone llama.cpp on GitHub and the models from HuggingFace. No need to trust this unrelated website.

Also if your infrastructure is elastic, image size can cause significant delay to scale-up and instance startup. At large scales it adds up to wasted money on provisioned resources spending time downloading the images. Very noticable with s

This is like saying books have no value because the cost of distribution is near zero. Books cost money because quality authorship is scarce and people are willing to pay for "ongoing support" (sequels and future works)

If you want to minimize inage size Alpine isn't the best choice anyway. Something like Distroless is usually a better choice.
