While I agree that getting the opinions of a few individuals is not particularly good journalism, this opinion seems to be the consensus among almost everyone I've spoken to about this. Colleagues, ex-colleagues, friends, family, every

This is basically what I do. More often than not they'll just ignore your requests, until you threaten that you'll inform the ICO (information commission officer for the non-UK people). They usually quickly respond and take you of

Many of the automation tools aren't great, but some are better than others. I'd take terraform and puppet or chef over ansible any day. I'd much rather have something that is declarative and easy to make idempotent over somet

I wouldn't. I said that as a point the ansible is bad. It is procedural and hard to follow. Bash and python don't have any host management features (I.e. inventories) so you'd have implement that yourself, which won't be

Ansible is abysmal. I don't know why anyone still chooses it. It's a mess of yaml and what feels like a million yaml files that is always extremely hard to follow. Honestly writing some python, or bash is a lot easier to follow, r

Yes. I've been using Automatic Reader View[0]. Though, to be honest, this should be an option directly in Firefox. [0] https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/automatic-rea...

On a similar note, has anyone used a pre-built "saas starter kit" or the like? If so, how is it going? Do you regret using it? Reason I'm asking is because I'm trying to write a new app from scratch but I'm getting

It's a shame Mozilla butchered Firefox mobile, cos this still doesn't work on it.

I wish this existed for the git remote.

Good! I hope they'll buy it from SoftBank and bring it back into British control. It would put ARM in an even better position to challenge Intel and AMD.

I don't know about the US, but here in the UK prepaid mobile isn't necessarily looked down upon, but it's significantly more expensive than a contract. It's the main reason why people just go with a contract despite bein

Great to hear. Krita is absolutely great. Even though it's designed for painting it still has an absolutely great UI and UX and I do much of my basic editing. Personally I find the UX way better than GIMP despite it not being designed

Check out spicetify cli[0]! It patches the Spotify (desktop) client and makes it better. It also adds support for extensions, one of which[1] disables the podcast features. I haven't used the extension so I'm not sure how well it

That's fair. My Latin is non-existent, and I clearly was too eager to look at example source instead of reading the description. I'll take my criticism and walk away.

Wow, plumbum, despite it's unfortunate name, looks awesome. I will definitely try it next time I write a script.

The truth is they're rephrasing what was already known. They're going to match match finger prints of pictures against a database. Every picture. This was widely report. What confusion they're referring to I don't know,

It doesn't, but you shouldn't have to do that.

I think you might be missing the point. You are correct, kubeadm doesn't include any components in that sense and runs them in containers. The issue with this is that there's a lot of overheads for each service that Kubernetes run

Ask yourself, why do you need a MySQL DB in the first place? If the service can get away with sqlite, use that. Alternatively, there is also rqlite (and I think another similar project) that allows for sqlite to be HA.

Totally agree, and I notice a lot of people just blindly go down the hosting Vaultwarden route. There's a trade-off that everyone needs to consider, and much of it depends entirely on their skill level. Having said, I'm all for se

Which also doesn't work when using a private window.

Personally the UI itself is fine. The UX on the other hand not so much. - Firefox Extension doesn't work fully in a private window in Firefox. - Extension loses data when you click away from it. - Extension is hard to navigate using ke

It gets worse. Their browser extension doesn't work when using a private window in Firefox. The GitHub issue[0] around it was raised in 2017. They've been blaming Mozilla for deprecating and subsequently removing an API. It's

You can self-host vaultwarden (formerly bitwarden_rs), which gives full enterprise functionality.

Out of curiousity, how come k3s has been able to keep up? Or is my assumption incorrect?

Are you planning to add a self-hosted option? My one thing about all these finance SaaS is that I'm sure part of their business model is selling your data, even if anonymised. I'd be happy to pay a one-off fee and self-host it or

Highly recommend running the whole golangci-lint suite on your Go projects. They're a bunch of great linters being run, and gosec is included.
