IntelliJ has a new UI as well, which is more VSCode-like. I personally don't like it due to the excessive amount of whitespace (form > function), but it's good to have the choice!

Adding to that, the machine ID is a global identifier and changing it could lead to all sorts of unpredictable consequences elsewhere.

virt-clone only takes care of the libvirt config but won't touch unique identifiers in your disk image. /etc/machine-id isn't the only thing to worry about when duplicating a VM - think SSH host key, DHCP leases, various

Danfoss Ally thermostats have a built-in PID controller that does this, and can be used with Home Assistant via zigbee2mqtt. In theory, you could use aggregate heat demand from the Ally thermostats to control a modulating OpenTherm boiler.

Most of Google. Some projects like Android and Chromium are developed outside google3 and use Git (with Gerrit). IIRC, Git is also relatively popular as a local Piper frontend.

Linux servers don't usually travel the world. MDM tooling is pretty bad for Linux. You can make it work but it requires more effort than most corp teams are willing to put up with.

It's a technology problem too: the devices should have been encrypted such that it wouldn't matter if they fall into the wrong hands. Of course, it all comes down to organizational issues in the end (they knew about the risk and i

Hetzner is great, but it may not be the best choice for a social network that hosts user content and may attract controversy. As a mass-market hosting provider, Hetzner is subject to constant fraud, abuse and hacked customer servers, and in

The opposite is true - of all the major messengers, Telegram is the least secure. It uses a homebrew encryption scheme and does not have E2E encryption (yes, you can enable E2E for individual chats, but nobody uses it because it breaks most

When implemented correctly, it also helps local development. You can use remote cache with local execution for quick compiles locally.

In colos, the cost of electricity typically also pays for air conditioning since it's a perfect linear relationship - more power goes in, more AC needed to get the heat out. Plus some overhead costs (but with Hetzner, I'd assume t
