This is kinda what I'm thinking. We're absolutely not at the scale Cloudflare is at. But we run software and configuration changes through three tiers - first stage for the dev-team only, second stage with internal customers and o

If FL2 didn't have the outage, and FL1 did, the pace of the migration did have an impact. Though this is showing the problem with these things: Migrating faster could have reduced the impact of this outage, while increasing the impact

From my understanding, you would not be allowed to sell an "S3 compatible storage" as a service based off of Minio or another AGPL licensed S3-compatible storage solution, especially if you modify the source code of minio in any w

In my experience, a decently managed database scales very hard. 3x EX44 running Patroni + PostgreSQL would give you 64GB of working memory, at least 512 GB NVMe of dataset (configurable with more for a one-time fee) at HA + 1 maintenance no

On servers, D is commonly used to push data / vendor installations / other stuff you may want to backup separate from the OS off of the main OS drive C.

One thing process protects against is lazy people. Like, we recently had an incident where someone just pasted "401 - URL" into the description and sent it off. We recently asked someone to open the incident through the correct ch

Mh, I am starting to dislike this kind of hyper-configurability. I know when this was necessary and used it myself quite a bit. But today, couldn't we just open up a mount namespace and bind-mount something else to /tmp, like Syst

Once you get down to bone, especially larger ones, parts of the surgery turns into masonry and carpentry. Including the tools. Power drills are valid tools in joint replacements or fracture stabilization.

Oh this was in the days of yore of modded 1.4 and early 1.7. I don't remember specific mods, I just remember the pain and frustration of this happening. I'm currently playing Stoneblock 4 and have been playing GT:NH and Nomifactor

Oh GTs power is absolutely not RF. Back in the day, even GTs power could be cruel though. You could over-volt your machines and thus void machines you spend literal days on crafting. And the cables in the process too. And you could lose you

Some mods in modded minecraft had that and it's a very punishing mechanic unless implemented well. It eats all of your power and usually also very expensive items very quickly usually. Assume you have like 600RF/tick generated, co

Ah, I flipped it in my head. That happens after 10 years. In this case, it was often an interesting exercise in bias as well. "Woman?" would usually single out 1-2 persons out of the 15, so it was a terrible question. It was CompS

Yes, but multiple yes or no questions in combination can easily yield more information than they should in a real dataset. That's the real educational point.

It reminds me of a game we played with students of data classification algorithms like ID3: How many yes/no questions do we need to uniquely identify everyone in this room? With like 12 students, that's 4 bits, and it often ends u

I really dislike that approach. We're by now evaluating high-severity CVEs ASAP in a group to figure out if we are affected, and if mitigations apply. Then there is the choice of crash-patching and/or mitigating in parallel, updat

Bit-Reproducible infrastructure could also result in some of the wildest build distribution architectures if you think about it. You could publish sources and have people register like in APT mirrors to provide builds, and at the end of the

Personally, I find it faster if I use LLMs for the use cases I've found them to work well. One example is just laborious typing-heavy stuff. Like I recently needed a table converted to an enumeration. 5 years ago I'd have spent ha

Well, for an about 1 meter tall obstacle (like a kid), some of these large SUV shapes have ~10 - 12 meters of a blind spot to spot this obstacle. There is another small vehicle around, which usually has a lower stopping distance, and a smal

Yeah, when I was looking into the plausibility and function of polyphasic sleep, I stumbled across studies from the US Airforce. Their conclusion was similar: In a controlled enviroment, it can be spectacular and work really, really well. H

To me it feels like nuance has been lost. Personally, I would never self-host some B2C or B2B application if you have less than 50 - 100 techies in a healthy org. You can get just too much from a few VMs and/or a few dedicated servers

It's similar for me. Regarding audio, I have access to very decent headphones and also lower-grade studio monitors, as I've decided to make audio production a hobby of mine. Both of these are absolutely better than my cheaper in-e

Yes, and from what I've been reading and hearing: Modern electronic components and the manufacturing methods in general are also much more consistent in this day and age. Back in the day, costs of a guitar would go into higher quality
