I thought cooling was pretty much pre-planned in any data center, and you simply don't install more stuff than you can cool? So did some cooling equipment fail here or was there an external reason for the overheating? Or does Amazon ov

It was obvious that Trump is unstable and has extreme and volatile views on foreign policy. So yes, I think it is entirely fair to blame anyone that voted for Trump in the last election.

And what did the attack accomplish? It did degrade the Iranian military somewhat. It killed the Iranian leadership, but odds are the replacements are simply even more radical and opposed to the US. The nuclear material is probably still bur

My experience with docker-compose is a bit outdated, but my impression some years ago was that it was too sensitive and fragile. I encountered bugs or incompatibilities that broke the docker-compose setup often enough to be forced to pin th

I have a 200 EUR handgrinder and an Aeropress. That's about the limit for me, there isn't really anything else to improve there for filter coffee. There's probably a lot more ways to make different coffee, but not that much r

That regression is maybe most useful as a reminder to people to configure huge pages for PostgreSQL. That's the one recommended basic performance tuning that is just annoying enough to set up that I suspect many people with smaller DBs

There's certainly people that focus too much on minor details. And you really don't need to go into the 4-digit in spending to get very good coffee (especially if you don't want Espresso). But I was a bit surprised how much s

It does sound like a pretty terrible idea to try to count carbohydrates from an image. There just isn't enough information there to reliably do that. At best you could identify the object in the image and then show reference informatio

Are you using WAL archiving? As far as I understand, pgbackrest and Barman can also use direct streaming from the DB (same mechanism as replication), I didn't find any mention of this in the WAL-G documentation. With WAL archiving you

I was about to set up Postgres backups with pgbackrest very soon. It looked like the most mature solution for my use case. What I was aiming for was continuous backups to an object storage provider, without a central DB server but the backu

Especially in combination with not having scoped api keys at all, if I understand the article correctly. If I read it correctly, any key to the dev/staging environment can access their prod systems. That's just insane. I'd ne

You don't need any encryption or signing for API keys. Using JWTs is probably more dangerous here, and more annoying for people using the API since you now have to handle refreshing tokens. Plain old API keys are straightforward to imp

Trump isn't even pretending to have a consistent, plausible reason to attack Iran. He never even set an actual strategic goal beyond blowing stuff up. It doesn't really matter what the intelligence said, since it had nothing to do

Is this something that is likely to also change the way Github Copilot bills? Right now the billing is message-based, not token-based. And OpenAI and Microsoft are rather opaquely intertwined in the AI space.
