Genuine question I was wondering when this went down - wasn’t this completely unknown at the time? If that’s the case, I feel like I can’t blame those who promoted it. I don’t have all the info though.

Tangential, but there’s an old interview with Ellison where he said that Amazon would never be able to get off of Oracle DB because it’s too critical a piece of software. This was in response to Amazon announcing it was something they had p

I have multiple people in my life that followed this mindset as well, to offer some more anecdata. I never got a rationale when asked, which still perplexes me considering these people weren’t fans of the republicans in this past race.

Agreed - we wrote an ML style language in my uni compilers course and it was taught by the primary maintainer of MLTon (Dr Fluet is a great guy). Since it’s full program optimizing, the compilation took a while. He told us to give SML NJ a

I was surprised when I realized that milk didn’t have that much calcium by volume, relative to how it was promoted to me as a kid. I found that almond milk had a good bit more by volume and the US dairy industry probably just had some good

$35 for the ePaper display seems pretty decent these days. Are these actually getting cheaper or am I off? I know it’s a patent riddled tech so that probably is the bit cost limiter, but I’ve been so excited seeing it more and more the last

Ubuntu 24.10 - works just fine. I lose about 1% battery per hour while suspended. I’ve made no Os config changes. It just works like most Linux experiences I’ve had the last few years with not bleeding edge hardware. Battery life while usin

Oh neat, I read the paper back of this book maybe two and a half or three years or so ago. I enjoyed it quite a bit. They do a good job at keeping tests a first class topic and consistently updating them with each addition. Some older archi

Why's that? Never used the app. Is it just a lot of negativity and you get negative vibes from them?

Beej is an incredible author. His networking guide is not only succinct and informative, it's also very funny. He's got a great writing style. There was a thread a month or two back showing off some more of his guides, including t

Without any other experience with this feature of Plex, I would've assumed that they'd proxy the data so it would work seamlessly with NAT and CGNAT setups without additional user config, but I have no idea if that's actually

I'm no expert, but I think you could have the reverse proxy node be the only thing whitelisted to be accepted by the nodes you want behind the proxy (via their tailscale IP). I believe this would all be done in their ACL JSON.

Am I wrong, or do we already know a good diet for the majority of people is? Get a mix of fruits, vegetables, lean meats, grains, and fats in reasonable distribution. That distributions seems to have a pretty flexible range and each person

Why's that? I have no experience here so I'm confused as to why the batteries would be different. Is it a size thing? Or are they just different tech all together?

It's not one or the other in my eyes - both can be a problem. When someone whips by me on the sidewalk on an e-bike or moped at 20+ MPH, that's a serious danger as well. I agree that I haven't heard of anyone specifically dyi

Agreed - maintainability directly contributes to whether or not something is "affordable" which is one of the center points of the article. Cheap and not repairable can quickly become expensive and wasteful.

I also had a Pebble Time in high school. That was an incredible watch. Beautiful, polished, functional, but still had a nerdy charm from the display. I miss it so much and this announcement is so exciting.
