that was a part of it, yes. but do not forget how focused they (amd/intel, esp in opteron days -- edit) were on the server market.

there are always tons of imgui-like libs.

if that is the case, my, I am appaled. where do you get those ntfractions of seconds? network? storage?

basically it's a load-spreading problem. this can be mitigated entirely by control plane alone. unless you think they really do a cluster-per-datacenter and in that case, I cannot believe the DC in question were not designed for peak a

does anyone actually do those kind of loads over entire dcs? because if so, I have some nice east-european guys to teach them proper load-balancing.

that would be a blackhole bomb.

by lstodd 1y ago
in a properly designed install you can actually use the compressors and fans for smoothing load spikes. won't be much, but why not. edit: otherwise I'm not getting what the entire article is about. it's as contrary to what I

was actually fun running crypto traders without all this container bullshit. one service is one service. and so much simpler. it helped of course that people writing them knew what they were doing.

if you go look up how xattrs work, you will understand it's no different than just reading a chunk of the file in question, and in fact can be slower. xattrs are better be forgotten already. it was just as dumb idea as macos resource f

four people answered strictly correctly as to what magic(5) is, but not a single one realized that storing some aux data as xattr in linux FS is not in any way different from just storing the exact same data as a file header. which is how m

I just don't pay my prepaid plan unless I need it. And I don't pick up phone calls unless from family. And there is no internet. (the plan provides one-way calls and texts, and in emegergency I can get half a day of connectivity b

so, like magic(5)?

The question is why you did not do your research before posting this insultingly dismissive missive.

Norway is not "those kind of temperatures". They get a lot of snow, and maybe -5C and that is all because Gulfstream (the reason Murmansk does not freeze, and it's much farther into Arctic). Otherwise they get it easy. Now wh

I can definitely say that old/USSR 2.7L gasoline engines for the military came with block heaters. But they were expected to start in -50C / -60F. Good luck getting anything out of an EV at those temperatures.

nope, once you decide on a genset, then investment in / maintenance on a battery just makes zero sense.

oh the old belief in the infallibility of bureacracy. in reality it's simple: stuff gets so much byzantine that any numbers coming out of it are just hallucinations.

well.. okay. NV looks like similar enough to mid-to-southern-africa where we did stuff. an AC unit (6KW? 24KW?) (per what, TEU or double-TEU) doesn't look like something sustainable. but we had much less dense installs, so I'm not

Do you not see that you're contradicting yourself? If drugs were not prohibited, they would not cost so much as to cause "scraping up enough". How come I can buy 50 liters of isopropanol (99.(9) whatever, dehydrated, better t

Does this include thermals on batteries? And how much power is spent on keeping them at the optimals? What about SoC/SoD figures? Because without that the 20 year promise is bullshit. I can sort of name ballpark figures for the above,

BTW everyone is fond of Norway while having zero idea how it's actually over there. Consider this movie https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_Order_of_Disappearance The protagonist plows snow for a living, using 200-30

no hassle unless the door has to cope with rain, salt water drizzle and daily freeze-thaw cycles. then it suddenly starts to cost like half a spaceship

No one ever drilled the Moon to any useful extent. All we know is that it's mostly dusty on top.
