A nice compromise is to buy a tower UPS - the ones which are deeper but not as high - and then place them on a cantilever shelf on the rack. Mine occupies 3U of rack space and I can even place my NAS on the shelf in front of the UPS.

Some more context. > - a CLI verification option that will test a given % of your backup objects (at random) every time it's run, to give you opportunistic random verification to try find issues. FWIW Restic also supports this - see

Tom Scott did a video about bottled-water, tap-water and mineral-water regarding this - see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wD79NZroV88 It's interesting because the correct answer is that each country/region has d

My head hurts! Does unless apply to both branches or just one. The if example is easier for sure.

Good point. But that works only if the version number is the thing you want to test. And also it's possible that newer versions include the bug or some even newer version introduces a regression re-introducing the bug. I'm a belie

One other thing which I find very useful is to write tests which will start failing once the <trigger condition> changes. For example if today the database version I'm testing against disallows some query shape I can: - write a t

I ran into this myself. It's even more frustrating that they don't warn you about it upfront when closing the account (at least they didn't back when I ran into this). I was hoping to start over with a fresh account and inste

At a certain scale it does become very expensive. It's easy math. When your monthly Athena bill crosses whatever it would cost to have 5 or 10 EC2 machines it'll be cheaper to use Trino. At my previous workplace we moved from ~$40

I must disclaim that I contribute to Trino. I agree but it depends a bit on what purpose you are using them for. If you mainly use the tool to JOIN some data in bulk and then write output somewhere else (i.e. ETL) - either will serve you fi

BigQuery very recently announced their Storage Write API which is one of the ways we were looking to implement this but there are some issues with the latency and consistency guarantees that it offers. But, yes, we do plan to add that event

The article talks about the reverse direction however. i.e. Data from Kafka being ingested via Flink for Trino to query as Iceberg tables - everything with a single consistent schema. To be pedantic though Flink also operates on a flush int

Bold of you to assume people read articles before commenting. diff3 has another advantage in the general case as well since it allows you to better understand if something outside of the hunk you're applying also needs to be changed wh

There is a way to indicate the URI to visit for change-password but not about how to interact with the document at that URI. See `change-password` under https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Well-known_URI .

Not everything is a binary. Also having everything system specific live under a single path means easy backups, easy immutable trees that can be A/B swapped for seamless and online updates with easy rollbacks. No more wondering where t

They are pushing the time-series rendering code to it's limits I'm sure here and for sure would've uncovered lots of bugs and possibilities for performance improvements with this.

The difference is that it's an explicit choice instead of other package managers who'd happily install latest compromised versions of packages by default.

Also the lockfiles are not recursive. i.e. they don't apply to the dependencies you install or their transitive deps.

Reminds me of this other comment I made on an old thread discussing this point in a way which hopefully others can relate to at-least a bit. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27909275
