The local thai cafe is "pretty good". I was also struck by how good the wifi was in most of the dining places I went to. Ran around, past santa's post box, and the seed vault, snowshoed up trollstein (spelling?), had great fu

I've found a happy medium, where I use sql-migrate to build the database, and go-jet to generate the table/model structures for use in go, and go-jet's syntax is reasonably close to SQL that it's easy enough for expressi

I initially thought that this was only affecting RAIDZ groups, but it looks like it also affects RAIDZ2 groups? Can someone confirm this? After the expansion completes, old blocks remain with their old data-to-parity ratio (e.g. 5-wi

channels seemed to fit very nicely in a gRPC streaming API call. But gRPC is not for everyone.

omg Alter Ego was one of my favourites, especially their truffle packs. Time to change?

You could almost shorten it to: if r, err := os.Open(src); err != nil { return err } defer r.Close() But then r is not in scope for the r.Close proper

worse, I've seen supposedly unused columns be used for some other purpose, and then existing analytics fall apart.

It's a shame, my SO (completely not in IT related work) does enjoy reading my ACM magazines, and despite being in very different industries, we do see and share quite similar experiences. Perhaps it's time I obtain one of those A4

A good engineering manager should be like a warrior in a garden; mentoring and fostering the engineers, and ready to go to "battle" for them at a moment's notice.

OK this was too long and painful to read (esp with the background issues). My 2 cents on why you should like Iain M. Banks (for SciFi, aka Iain Banks for fiction, RIP): - AI ships with cool names

Hmm, this seems rife for a supply-chain (or do we need a new term, box-in-store) attack?

I used to enjoy playing lightgun games with my SO on the PS2, so was devastated when new consoles seemingly no longer had light gun games. Thankfully, the oculus quest 2 has pistol whip etc. Would be interesting to see how those are proce

Absolutely. I like when the video shows it "staggering" off when they pull the rug/curtain away slowly. Now, if it could vaccuum a floor, I'd buy one!

A friend left when Iger left. I wonder if she'll go back, now that Iger is back on board.

I think this is a good thing. In the past you would remind people, hey, after you find your wiki article, "please" go verify. But wiki was "good" enough most of the time, that people found verification to be often time

Ah, it was already mentioned in the previous thread too, that Ars review team had the ports configured incorrectly which resulted in higher power draw. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37752950#37756186

That's kind of strange too, the notebookcheck article shows the Ryzen version having a much larger runtime in their benchmark compared to the i7-1370P version. Search for "Battery life", you'll see WIFI runtime at 726 vs

I am just about to wrap up some prototyping comparing snowflake, typeids, uuidv4 and ulid. Why did I not bump into uuidv7 earlier?!?

OK I found it, not in Specifications, but in the FAQ section (sigh). So looks like you need a smart phone, WIFI, and a meta account. So much for being useful for sports.

The UX for the page is terrible, or else I'm too used to reading reference manuals. I can't figure out if the glasses can be used standalone, or need constant connection to a smart phone, nor battery life. Why? I actually think

That's the old system, I had a choice of staying with the "old" system or moving to the superannuation scheme. My older (read: then about to retire) colleagues told me I HAD TO move to the "new" system, as by the t

I worked for several years in OZ and amassed a 6 figure super. Thanks to the greedy super fund companies and several economic downturns,that 6 figure sum is now 5 figures. Sigh.

I used to get some great stuff from icebreaker too, but after they were acquired by VF (also owners of Vans and North face), surprise, surprise, pretty much zero purchases since.
