There's a type of Haitian spicy peanut butter, sold under the brand Manba in Montreal. I loved that stuff. https://manba.ca/T31jCjVS/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/Box-of-...

I recently read Despair and Bend Sinister, both by Vladimir Nabokov, and enjoyed both greatly. David Foster Wallace's Infinite Jest also deals with existentialism.

I had a similar incident (I was able to ctrl-c out of the hanging df -h though). Luckily dmesg gave me something super clear (like `nfs host <blah> unreachable`), so I did a `umount -l` (lazy) on `/mnt/net/<blah>`

The toughest part of immigrating from Canada to the U.S. was figuring out the mess that was Google Play Store, Google Wallet, Google Payment Profiles, and Google Pay to get myself recognized as being in the U.S. and thus able to download U.

Yeah it does, I have Linux on a T460 and T470. It's just with Nvidia graphics, there's the whole Optimus/Bumblebee mess to deal with (unless that's improved recently?) Intel graphics are way more Linux-friendly OOTB.

You're right about the full-time PE role but this is an intern role - how much production fire-extinguishing/sysadmin experience could they expect a student to have?

I don't enjoy the ThinkPad trackpad experience in Linux. When I type my sweaty palms touch it, and it never feels great. My (drastic) solution was to disable the trackpad and fully commit to a keyboard-based workflow (i3wm, tmux, emacs

A quick poll. My initial idea was to put `tf-version` files in each Terraform recipe directory e.g. `echo "0.9.11" > kafka-prod-useast1a/tf-version". I could check for the existence of such a file with `metaform` to s

We ran into similar issues. From there I went one step further and wrote a tool to do the attachments for me (instead of using Terraform's aws_volume_attachment): https://github.com/sevagh/goat This way in Terrafo
