I looked at Nomad about a year ago but deployment of a secure production cluster involved more moving parts than I liked. Especially the security seemed to be very complicated (with a private CA, certificates, Vault, etc. necessary). A simp

From what I hear from my Swedish friends the differences between Sweden's and other European countries' responses has been exaggerated. In Sweden, too, many children did not go to school or kindergarten. Many shops were closed and

It's always fascinating to see that even compared to prices you pay as a self-paying patient in Germany (which are already 1.5x - 2x higher than what the "public" insurances, ie. 85% of the population, pay for the same proced

The have to go through an approval process on every update but AFAICR only with a study including 300 adults, so substantially less then the tens of thousands that were included in the Biontec/Moderna trails.

Sounds like SolarWinds hired a good PR agency with the goal to deflect blame and make it sound like a big conspiracy. JetBrains being a Czech/Russian company makes it the perfect scape goat. As was pointed out, "solarwinds123"

I often find it hard to believe that a single person can make much of a difference in such intricate problem domains as chip design but in his case the evidence is overwhelming. Also goes to show what a shit show Intel has become since even

They switched many inner cities to pedastrian-only zones in Germany decades ago. What becomes more and more apparent now is that it seems to slowly but surely kill retail in inner cities. It starts with people getting their groceries at the

Thank you so much for Caddy and open sourcing it completely. Every few years there comes a piece of software that really opens ones eyes how overcomplicated life was before. Caddy is absolutely one of those.

From my point of view, this is all very encouraging and actually lets me find redeeming qualities in this whole Corona crisis. While the SARS-COV-2 virus is certainly not to be trifled with, it's easy to imagine more serious virus outb

Well, the use of this framework seems to "enable" developers to create some of the worst designed, resource wasting abominations in the realm of "native" applications. So I'd rather have that stay closed source.

I don't think that has anything to do with "support". Intel had a sh*tload of problems with their laptop CPUs, (eg. bugs, coil-whine, security problems galore, etc.). The main reason is more likely long standing supply contra

That looks pretty good. What's amazing (but also a little disconcerting) is the fact that this seems to be pretty much entirely developed by one dude.

Weird, I always thought of it as a reference to something along the lines of "master record". A master is also part of a master/apprentice relationship which should not be a problem.

Considering they probably tested everyone so there are no unrecorded cases, a 1% death rate is pretty much in line with studies finding the CFR to be in the 0.5-1.5% neighborhood [1,2]. I would guess they are younger on average, but the pri
