In the physical world I can call a locksmith. For work related MFA I can call my manager / IT. For personal accounts I do stress a bit about locking myself out - obviously have backup codes etc, but unfortunately I'm not sure that

If you haven't come across it yet, DBT (data build tool) is a nice solution to the later parts of the pipeline (once you have the raw source data somewhere) https://www.getdbt.com/

Which of the various options would people recommend for setting up a single node cluster on a spare laptop (i7, 16gb ram)? I currently use a collection of docker-compose files, but am toying with the idea of switching it out for k8s

For me the Android emulator in conjunction with a fairly large react native dev server and an ide is enough to fill 16gb. I've had to resort to closing the ide before starting the emulator, and waiting for the first build to complete o

One thing I'm very happy to see on their configuration page is the choice of keyboard layout. It feels like most companies assume that you must want the standard layout for the country you're currently living in, when personally I

What you just describes definitely works in modern versions of Nautilus. Just checked on fedora 34. I have a nagging memory that this may not have worked in the past though. I actually find Nautilus perfectly fine to use. My biggest gripe i

During the rebuild of Christchurch, NZ they used this technique for a number of buildings, basically pumping out water with one well, then re-injecting it with another as I understand. Essentially exploits the ground water remaining a const

I completely agree with the sentiment of that post. I've generally always found it difficult to find something in this space that produces a layout that's easy to follow, and easy to experiment with. I think I'd like somethin

I enjoyed this story of a sea lion breaking into a public pool in Dunedin, New Zealand. Unfortunately I can't find the video that includes the CTV footage of it making its way through the cafe but it's still fairly entertaining h

To be fair they have quite openly experimented with shutting themselves off from the internet, presumably for situations like now. Ref: https://www.reuters.com/technology/russia-disconnected-globa...

The index and the collection iterated over is passed as the 2nd/3rd parameters in JavaScript, so technically you still have access to them, though in the majority of cases people will omit these parameters

This is something to be mindful of when using datadog synthetics monitors as well - if you have a short interval, or many locations being tested from they can become expensive quickly

I wish mine had 1tb - I was already considering paying as I'm forever bumping up against a ~20gb limit with Google photos contributing most. To be fair I think that was per user on the domain, so probably could've created addition

I'd love to be able to browse pr's commit by commit marking files as viewed, and then ideally have this bubble through to the holistic change view

I wish that github would stick multiple commit messages into the default pr body - if I have a single commit it'll prefill the pr body from its message, but have a series of commits it won't. Should use the same rules as it's

My favourite thing about air tools was not having to worry about batteries (most electric hand tools I've used are battery only so no opportunity to use an extension lead like you use an air hose)

I haven't had a chance to use mysql 8 yet (which I believe narrows the gap between postgres and mysql), but whenever I'm interacting with databases on mysql 5.7 I miss features like common table expressions from postgres

This sounds fine from a technology perspective, but personally I wouldn't be comfortable building iOS apps professionally running osx in a VM - I'm fairly sure this violates the license which could turn into a big head ache later.

I'm not sure I agree with this - there have been many postgres features over the past ~10 years that got me excited, some of the highlights that immediately spring to mind: - JSON / jsonb - improved partitioning support - identity

Just to add to that list, Fedora is easy to get Nvidia / Optimus cards going these days too - wasn't the case a few years ago but now I can do a clean install and everything just works.

As far as I understand the license you're allowed to self host this for free, so long as you're monitoring your own stuff rather than reselling monitoring as a service. I can see this being very attractive for side projects /

I was fascinated by a similar idea as a child, generating images of everything that has been, could be, or will be by exhaustively going through the possible combinations of pixels for some fixed size of image. Later realized that the numbe

Sometimes I have things like recipes or dashboards open on my laptop whilst I do other things in the background. It can be annoying having to bump the mouse to avoid the screen locking, and manually changing the settings through the UI has

Ideally shouldn't the credential be rolled even if you delete the message? Unless slack hard deletes messages, but my guess would be soft deletion. Even then it's not really designed for sending sensitive credentials

I've seen landscape paintings done in such a way that they change based on the illumination, it was a very impressive effect. There's an article about the guy here https://thisnzlife.co.nz/queenstown-painter-tim-wi

That makes sense, I might have a play with the array agg approach. I'm especially curious if it has any impact on slot time consumed

by mnahkies 5y ago
I've generally used `PARTITION BY` to achieve the same effect in big query (similar to what was suggested in the article for postgres). Does the `ARRAY_AGG` approach offer any advantages?
