Just checked, systemd-resolved doesn't even support that behavior anymore[1], so any multi-label FQDN will get resolved without appending the search domain. So that's still a mess, but no mess of "rip apart the entire home ne

There are however other factors involved in the grade, which have a higher impact on the grade. Like, understanding of the material and ability to present a solution. - E - I'm mostly saying that because a bunch of comments are jumping

I have something similar with ~/Stuff. ~/Stuff contains a folder per month, and ~/CurrentStuff links to the current folder. From there I have a simple shell-function `mkstuff` to create a folder ~/CurrentStuff/$DAY-

Well there is Dimmu Borgir, with an orchestra and a choir: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=El4zsUZjsDc - and it is just nuts. Yes that's 90 minutes, but watch 5 and then decide. And that's why I love folk-ish meta

I was about to say exactly the same thing. Early one, a city kind of feels like an old school point and click adventure. There is train station x, and to the left of one exit is this location, to the right of that exit is that location. But

Huh. There's bound to be some weird constraint there. E: Looking at the sibling comments, I'm disregarding negative numbers here. Probably that breaks the line of thought here. For example, a sequence made up of all numbers from 1

Reading up some on the difficulties of laundering money was one of the more interesting topics in the last few years for me, such as this video[1] It turns into a fascinating business and process problem, since you can only inject a certain

This is indeed something my opinion shifted in the last 2 years. Some of my superiors hate it, but they are kinda getting it after some patience. The thing is: Slowly deprecating a service doesn't work. At least on my patience level, w

This was one of the core points of a UX class in university: Nothing makes sense and intuitive usability is a lie. Well maybe not that strictly, but pretty much. For example, steering wheels on cars and boats work the opposite way. On a gui

This is very much what I was thinking as well. This wasn't a casual allocation error, or some attempt to load data from a well-crafted archive to execute it or something like that. The payload already is pretty sophisticated and full o

Yeah, this was the Rickmer Rickmers[1] in fact. We had a team we work with a lot over here in HH and went on the treasure hunt on the Rickmer Rickmers as an event. That was very nice - they spread a bunch of little puzzle boxes across the s

This hit me a a bit ago - you can't really tell how big ships are if you just see pictures of them on sea. I recently hit this in real life. Yeah it's a ship. Oh. It's like 3 - 4 times as tall as I am above water. And it goes

Like, I'm a consul user, but I'd assume the use cases are similar. One concrete example: Consul can provide you with locking and thus leader election with relatively little effort. Patroni, the postgres manager, can use a consul l

I just wrote a longer piece, but deleted it because I realized what I was thinking. I think this is the right way around, because I lean towards the "technically correct" side here. "Technically correct" always carries a

I've recently been pointed at the 1001 album generator[1] I just started on thursday and so far it has shown me Rage against the Machine, and some Jazz 20 years older than I am. Quite the experience. 1: https://1001albumsgen

This is what the Navy calls "Command by negation". It is very successful if a team can build up a reputation and trust to make good, successful decisions. This is how we're communicating internally with our management as well

Aye. It is a very interesting question if you need or even want full randomness in a game. If you have something that's geared towards speed running, fast execution and mastering, being deterministic is actually a good thing. Otherwise

Speedrunners abuse this in a fun way on older consoles, RNG manipulation [1]. For example the SNES had no actual source of random numbers, so games had to use the inputs as the most unpredictable random source. However, if you do that, peop

This is a constant architectural struggle, I tell you. Like, inside the infrastructure, I'm constantly updating, poking teams and such to make sure we have clean disaster recovery layers and we have clean documentation about the depend

To me, this depends on the different failure domains and how they interact with each other and based off of that, it can be decided if the teams should coordinate changes, communicate changes or just run. For example we've had situatio

And as an example, since we've been dealing with a huge amount of incidents over the last few weeks: To me, it's completely normal if BryantD is like "Yo tetha, how are the caches and restarts coming?" and it doesn'

But that's not over communication, that's just pollution of radio space. For example, in a recent incident I ended up kinda in charge / responsible for the database as the application encountered some weird lifelock with row

I think conceptually, there is no real difference. In the end, a compiler outputting machine code uses very small stencils, like "mov _ _", which are rather simple to patch. Practically though, it's an enormous difference, as

How does this control the private IP address that can be assigned? How does this stop the VM from just grabbing any IP? There isn't even anything IP-shaped in that policy.

Something similar recently tripped me up: Some parts of AWS IAM are extremely detailed and you can create insanely specific policies allowing very precise control (almost to a fault). Other parts are very broad and unspecific. For example,

Space complexity is always less than time complexity. If every operation can only access a constant number of memory spaces, something in O(f) can only touch O(f*k) memory spaces. Thus, space complexity is bounded by time complexity. (I don

My dummy interpretation: Mom will be upset by her kid chanting SATAN. If mom is upset, dad is going to regret it. But it will be funny, so it might be worth it. Fits perfectly into a question/lesson about regret.
