That may what sysadmin meant back in the 80s and 90s but it's not what it means now. I would never describe myself, a SRE-SE, as a sysadmin because I would be describing someone whose primary job is to operate software and iterate on c

Yeah, it is, but there's also a lot more to being a SRE than this book. This book more or less tells you how to stand up a reliability program, what it doesn't really indicate is what SREs do . A lot of people I meet think SRE is

I'm curious what pitfalls you're referring to. Frameworks like Tauri and Wails are a far departure from Electron in that they don't bundle a browser.

My greyhound/pit mix knows my names of many of her toys. She also has a range of expressions she uses to disagree with me or tell me I'm wrong. Her favorite toy is this kevlar llama unicorn that my mother has resewn for her twice.

No. If the feature requires 10 commits and only 9 are universally agreed on then under this model you would merge 9 commits. Those 9 commits, despite doing nothing, would have agency and real estate in the code. There's nothing that sa

It was maybe a bit of both based on the corporate bylaws, but it was and is an employee owned company. What I described (bonuses over reinvestment) is a decision shareholders (employees) get to make.

Employees have a say in the direction of the company. It depends on the bylaws, but employees will vote on certain things. There's a lot of talking it up here, but it can also suck. I worked for one that was very blue collar as a syste

Talk to people about what pains them and work backward from there. You'll probably find a thing or two where simple things can be done that'll have a big impact.

What is an "HN" type? HN has smart, dumb, and in-between people of every variety. That's the byproduct you get of encouraging curiosity. I don't think HN was even around in any sort of prominence when Perl died. I stoppe

I agree, my point is that clusters are overused. Most applications simply don't need them and it results in a lot of waste. Much of this has to do with engineers being tasked with an assortment of roles these days, so they obviously

You hit the nail on the head, but mine is a 5 channel Daikin heat pump. I got a bit of a deal because I paid in cash.

It was a 5 channel heat pump with a single condenser. As the other commenter wrote it was mostly wrapped up in labor. For what it's worth, they're 24 SEER Daikin units. It's priced at replacing the AC and heat for an entire h

Yeah, I made this mistake this year. I pumped $20k into a heat pump system, coming from what used to be Natural Gas. I wasn't given any kind of relief because I live in Oregon where most relief is income based. Then at the beginning of

NSAIDs are pretty dangerous on the whole. It's kinda surprising they remain OTC while something like marijuana is schedule 1. This study encapsulates things pretty well: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16086703/

It's an election year. Party constituents eat polarizing rhetoric and outlandish takes like it's a breakfast bar. Journalists are happy to stock that bar. fwiw, it wasn't Biden that created the court it was Merrick Garland:
