That it actually quite simple and nifty. It reminds me of the 4 priorities RPC requests can have within the Google stack. 0 being if this fails it will result in a big fat error for the user to 3, we don’t care if this fails because we will

It can boot and show a desktop fast after logging in. However, after that it seems still to be doing a lot in the background. If I try to open up Firefox, or any other app, immediately after I see the desktop it will take forever to load. W

IIRC everything you compile on macOS yourself, possibly only when using Apple’s llvm toolchain, already gets the proper bits set to execute just fine. This also seems to work for rust and go binaries. I’m not sure whether that is because th

Apple has this thing called Legacy Contact which allows the same but then built in to the whole Apple account. This includes devices as well as the iCloud ~~and attached keychains. Granted, it is another hoop to jump through compared to pre

It is rare for our run of the mill Java apps to however, we notice it with: Integration of code quality gates, documentation checks, linting, cross architecture builds, etc. Most of this can be solved by doing the builds in a docker image t

You can though. GHA and Gitlab CI and all the others have a large feature set for orchestration (build matrices, triggers,etc.) that are hard to test on a local setup. Sometimes they interfere with the build because of flags, or the build f

Maybe a combination of AirTable and PowerBI/open-source alternative? Or just ms access backed by a proper database?

I still think MS Access was awesome. In the small companies I worked it was used successfully by moderately tech savvy directors and support employees to manage ERP, license generation, invoices, etc. The most heard gripe was the concurrent

This is amazing! My wife is also planning to open up a bakery and I was thinking of building something similar. Hadn’t thought of that daily production workflow, just the ingredients and recipes into cost/labour/profit parts. Some

Okay. In this case the whole operation is faster end to end. That includes the time it takes to tar and untar. Maybe those programs do something more efficient in disk access than scp and rsync?

Which models are you looking at? I was still quoted separate pumps for floor heating and a boiler with the pump built in taking the energy from the air two years ago. Is it something from nefit by any chance?

I’m not sure why, but just like with scp, I’ve achieved significant speeds ups by tarring the directory first (optionally compressing it), transferring and then decompressing. Maybe because it makes the tar and submit, and the receive, unta

Yes, maybe. But it would be nice if there would be footnotes or tooltips. Putting the explanation in the text itself breaks the flow of the text so that would make it worse indeed.

At this point I actually don’t know why I bother with the streaming services anymore. I recently watched a blu ray movie after a long time of just watching streams and the quality of the picture just blew me away. Is there even Blu-ray leve

Actually, that would be “401 Gone”. :-)

In normal (traditional?) European city cars, yes, I look for feet or shadows or other signs that there is a person in the other side. In SUVs this is largely impossible but then sometimes you can see heads or backpacks. Or you look for refl

Then that is okay as long as they don’t raise the prices after the competition is gone.

But it should only be because they indeed have lower margins or more efficient operations. It should not be funded by external money (other departments or investors), only to undercut competition too force them out only to raise prices to a

The thing is that the cat is out of the bag now. EU alternatives are popping up. Governmental services are moving to national or regional (EU) services/providers. There is a difference between a nation (USA) and its president having th

The dependencies were always there. But never before (since the forming of NATO) has the US leadership so clearly and concretely distanced themselves from Europe. Before that there was a strong sense of North America and Europe belonging to

Since you are developing in this domain. Our challenge with both lambdas and cloud run type managed solutions is that they seem incompatible with our service mesh. Cloud run and lambdas can not be incorporated with gcp service mesh, but onl

CachyOS has been smooth sailing for me! It is an arch derivative and it is blazing fast and stable.

Probably. I read it as “had an impact but kept the performance stayed nominal.”

After using Stash for ages at work we switched to gitlab which was refreshing. It was fast, self hosted, and full of features, especially useful around quality gates and build on PRs. Then it was decided we should go for best of suite inste

I know BYOD was common (although getting a fully specced MacBook Pro was often one of the “perks”), but typically you did get (some) budget or reimbursement for using your own device. So in a sense the company was paying for your device whi

This only holds if you don’t need/want/care for banking apps or things like Netflix. More apps are requiring hardware and software attestation like my sibling mentioned.

Sure. But if you have a semi reliable way of getting messages to loved ones either through the distributed net completely or using a satellite hop somewhere, then you have captured a big chunk of what people really want. When you are at hom

This is very unfortunate. To me Apple was the last corporate standing that is not doing ads nefariously. If this is changing what is next? I’m aware it is a slippery slope argument, but this has to do with trust. Apple’s advertised stance
