It’s not the worst idea, but we kind of need to get the whole orbital elevator but done first before the massive planet-spanning solar array. Truth though: I think Gundam 00 showed a shockingly plausible future (sans mechas, most likely) fo

The ignorance of the externalities of fossil fuels and a bipolar hyper focus on those of nuclear energy is mind boggling at this point. I’m all for developing renewables, but we cannot abandon the one good technology we have for generating

NAT64 still needs port translation, it’s doing the same job an IPv4 NAT gateway has to do, but additionally translating IPv6 addresses to IPv4 ones.

The simplified setup for modules in the language-specific IDEs alone makes them worth it IMO. It’s great that the plugins in IntelliJ cover basically everything but CLion, AppCode and Rider - but if I’m working on Python, JavaScript, PHP or

The $750 is just for the board. Four SFP+ ports, some onboard SATA ports, an open PCIe 3.0 x8 port and a 16-core Cortex A72 CPU on a mini-itx compatible board is still a decent price given it's not a mass-market product. Hell, developm

It is advertised as a workstation board, so the lack of design considerations for a rack mounted chassis isn’t surprising. That said, with the power draw of the entire board a 2U chassis with a standard circular fan on the CPU and modest

$750, right on SolidRun’s website. Given the specs it’s a fair price, although a 8-core Ryzen CPU would indeed run circles around 16 Cortex A72 cores.

Yes and no. Bear in mind, a large part of a Windows SID is a namespace - the actual id within that namespace is so far without exception under 32-bits. An entire Active Directory domain (read: single domain, not forest) is actually limited

It's kind of poorly worded. Hitting V1 means you are committed to taking off, single engine failure or not - but you HAVE to reach V2 to safely climb on one engine. This should happen within moments of hitting Vr, but being single-engi

For an application level interface they make sense - they’re trivial to generate and parse in any language, don’t require expensive bespoke parsers and lexers to be written, and the basic constructs are more appropriate for a query interfac

Ever since the acquisition CentOS has been the odd one out with Red Hat’s open source strategy - being downstream from the commercial product. Keycloak won’t have a similar issue, it’s already the upstream project for Red Hat SSO.

Keycloak supports multi-tenancy natively with realms. There is a fixed memory cost for each, but it’s not like you have to spin up an entirely new instance for each. I will agree that the SPI interfaces for Keycloak could be better, but esp

Okay, I can see why this new record type would be beneficial given the lax consistency model of DNS - seems a little lame to make the record type ‘HTTPSVC’ given that other TLS-enabled services could benefit from the same guarantees.
