Some Jaz Drives suffered from problems that could vaguely sound like (but were fairly physically different from) Click-Of-Death. We had an early one, they got announced around 95 and I think we got one in 97 to replace tapes... alas when we

Pedantically (also semi-curiously) the Matrox M3d didn't need passthrough. Not sure of specific mechanics but AFAIR it was a flat blank slot cover.

I'll make some controversial statements. I had odd thrombosis-like bouts in my legs after each of my first two Pfizer shots, and during one after the second round, the leg issue (I mean, you could feel the bump) subsided yet also resul

The problem is that they make it super easy in very hacky ways and it becomes painful to improve things without startup money. Also, per the hackiness, it tends to have visible perf impact. I know with dynatrace agent we had 0-1MS metrics

I'm fairly convinced that OTEL is in a form of 'vendor capture', i.e. because the only way to get a standard was to compromise with various bigcorps and sloppy startups to glue-gun it all together. I tried doing a simple

Ehh if you think about doom it's just a hook in the loop for whatever triggers the death animation.
