Yes, but let's not allow the Americans to "reinvent" the SI-prefixes for computers.. If you want base-2 then use kibiBytes (kiB) and move on..

How about waiting a bit first.. Maybe, things are back faster than you could cover from any trivial issue.

Or just as likely: that only some customers are affected. So it's not a full outage.

"sunsetting" is better than corp-speak saying "handing it off to community maintenance" Especially, if there isn't a dedicated community to maintain it. I'll take honesty over corp-speak any day. That said we p

Yeah, the part of the Danish Job market that is a game between unions and employers, can really suck if co-workers aren't unionized. Like there is no minimum wage in Denmark. And a unions ability to blockade an employer whose employees

Yeah, Danes (including me) like to think all is well, and while it's pretty good -- there are lots of things that could be better!

Or maybe we just need to make better websites, so there more good content for the search engines to find. We expect everything to be online. But I suspect that for many queries, we get garbage results because that's all there is.

I've never used it for note taking.. but it's my go-to tool for annotating PDFs. Mostly when I have to fill out a stupid form and sign it. I've been doing this with xournal for years :)

Curious, if you delete the stub in ~/.ssh/id_ed25519_sk, can you then recover the key? Or does the on-the-fly key generation use random bytes stored in the stub?

by jopsen 4y ago
Most providers also let you create recovery codes. Or signup for TOTP which gives you a QR code. Print those out and store them somewhere. Then if you loose your yubikey you recover access with those. If you're too lazy to print them,

Is "low tech" really cheaper? Curious, because I thought the reason nobody did buttons anymore was that printing a pattern on a touch capacitive surface was dirty cheap. Whereas I assume tactile buttons require a lot work when mou

Reading Wikipedia on monkeypox, there have been multiple outbreaks before, outbreaks that we never heard about. Supposedly, we're better at tracing now, if it really blows up we're better prepared than ever before.

I suspect healthcare providers won't give you a price before they are done, because they don't know what it'll cost. If they open you up, they might have a complication or run into some other issue that must be fixed before c

This is just the cost of a meeting. The opportunity cost is a different factor, it's the cost of not doing what the dev would otherwise be doing. Given that your not hiring devs to make up hours lost to meetings, the opportunity cost i

Also REST APIs work nicely with caching proxies and such..

Also print print out the QR code used to sign up for TOTP. That way it's easy to enroll a new laptop/phone/yubikey. Once printed out, put in a plastic bottle and bury it in your backyard :)

What else can you say? It's impossible to know if a vulnerability was exploited.

Just saw someone else linking to railway.app, curious how does the scaling work? The pricing showed a lightweight website priced at less than 1 CPU / month -- is there some undocumented fractional scaling going on?

I have mixed feelings too... SNS/SQS are awesome. But if you end up with micro services, your tests won't cover the integration of the entire system.

But technically, you have recourse if your professor distributes the paper. In practice, this could easily fall under fair-use, though, since the paper isn't distributed for the purpose of consumption.

Because nuclear is hard to finance. Our economy is better at financing smaller things, and iteratively optimize them. Which is probably why wind and solar are beating nuclear by now, the cost of building one unit is much lower. We get the e

In the meantime it's okay to take 2 minutes to celebrate that nuclear wasn't such a bad idea. We should just have doubled down on it 50 years ago. So much geopolitical trouble would have been avoided if bad actors in the middle ea
