Yes and no. Yes, I agree, because life would get boring really quickly. People should be able to express themselves (in a civil, legal manner) so that the world can be more colourful and filled with art and beauty. But also no, I don't

You can isolate and lock down services in systemd too! Not too hard at all, and again AI can help here. https://www.redhat.com/en/blog/mastering-systemd

That sounds like a great option to me. The more functionality you can get out of a container without giving up privileges, the better. Podman is just a tool like any other - I'd happily use it if it's right for the job. All I woul

Absolutely everything they said makes sense. Everything you're saying is complete overkill, even in most Enterprise environments. We're talking about a home server here for hosting eBooks and paperless documents, and you're i

I have hundreds of videos on YouTube, and even the old tech tutorial ones around Terraform and Ansible, which are super dated now, get comments thanking me for my time. It's interesting to see videos from 5+ years ago getting positive

I feel the same way as the author. I wrote tonnes of Terraform, Ansible, Go, YAML, Bash, Python code years ago at <company-name> and I often think, "Who knows what that code is doing now. Who cares? Does anyone care?" I have

You raise a good point here. There's a degree of trust here, too. Trust placed on the consumer to do the right thing and pay. I'd also say there's an additional consideration being put forward by the operator: sometimes peopl

I too used to believe those were valid points not to use an ORM back in the day. That was easily 2013/2014. Since then I’ve never found an ORM that gets in the way letting my just run raw SQL. And not just run raw SQL as complex as I’d

SQLAlchemy doesn’t get in the way of anything you might want to do. In fact, you can do a “textual” query and then have the response mapped to classes for you :-)

The age of AI is the very reason it's even more important that we blog. AI in it current form ingests and repeats what we train it to. I don't think new ideas will "organically" come out of current generation models.

If we wanted to replicate the 90s, 00s, and even the 2010s era gaming experience - mostly single player, no micro-transactions, and so on - how do we do that today? Is there way to discover games that aren't trying to extract as much m

That’s never how it’s been described to me. That’s always been known to me as FI/RE or just being rich. FUM is simply the ability to walk away from a job and be very picky about where you work.
