Early releases of Slackware were only floppy. The boot/root CD release came later. I fondly recall wasting hours in a computer lab @ university using 20 Sun Sparcstation 2 floppy drives to write the slackware floppies for me and my friend. Walking out with a brick of floppies was pure bliss (achievement unlocked).

Congrats Hannah! Been following since the TED talk, and her videos have always been a welcome addition to my day!

Can you share more details about how you connect the 3d rack enclosure to the 740?

Anyone remember the good old days where computer manufacturers would throw in a free printer with the purchase of a desktop computer? I ended up with 6 or 7 printers stacked in the closet. Instead of changing cartridges we changed printers. :)

I absolutely love ventoy and iventoy. They are amazing! Now I use this device : the IODD ST400 and never looked back. https://www.iodd.shop/IODD-ST400-USB-30-External-Encrypted-H... . The screen lets you pick, and swap the ISO on the fly, even enabling multiple to be mounted at the same time. This device even supports virtual hard drives and virtual floppy drives.

Curious to understand the need to create this over using tools like pssh, etc.

Love this, but iirc this was very common back in the day. Many of the XT, AT, 286, 386, 486 clones came with these types of triple AA battery packs, some with shrink wrap around them. It was easy to cut the shrink wrap and replace the cells with generic AA.

Consider taking a sabbatical if you can afford it. Reflect on what got you where you are today, and imagine where you want to be tomorrow. Let your mind disconnect from the day to day rigor of development. I have done this a few times in my career, and each time it keeps me centered on what is important to me. Hope this helps.

This needs a column & sort option for Benchmark/currency to help search for highest bang/buck card. While it can be done manually through export - users will definitely appreciate having the convenience.

Love the idea, but its a missed opportunity - some wheels and it could have been a skateboard too.

With all seriousness, keyboard should have flipped or slid out so its more compact. I can't see that in peoples pockets.

+1 Its a great read.

Payroll Payroll Payroll, please - Quickbooks has a hold on so many companies b/c of the payroll subscription.

Motif was everywhere and it sucked. Sun/SGI/etc. SGI/IRIX unfortunately used it as the default, but you could change it fairly easily.

Having gone down this road many times with freepbx, asterisk, etc.. I ultimately settled on just using voip.ms and connecting phones/sip clients directly to their internal sub-accounts with voicemail. They have enough features for most users so you don't need to worry about running your own PBX.

Glad to see this back on the market from HP. I miss my 11c and ill probably get this one. After supporting me through high-school, college, and a few jobs - my father asked to borrow mine, then proceeded to back over his briefcase with his car. :(

While there is merit to this post my main criticism running 13000 containers with zero load - essentially all the nginx processes are doing nothing - zero I/O, etc. after launch. Its a bit more interesting to see N# of containers running something synthetic that mimics a workload.

That said, containers are very lean (or can be with the right setup) given there is no kernel, drivers, etc to load.

MIT's 16.687 - Private pilot ground school. If you want to become a private pilot or start your career, this is the place to begin. The professors are approachable and the content is comprehensive. https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/16-687-private-pilot-ground-scho... all of the videos for the lectures are available on Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUl4u3cNGP63cUdAG3v31...

Having taken his class in person, I would like to second this. The man is a beautiful thinker and he presents linear algebra in a way that is extremely comprehensive and approachable.

Side note, the amount of times that this article redundantly mentioned "Ditched RabbitMQ And Replaced It With A Postgres Queue" made me kinda sick.

Hopefully ford patents this and then decides to bury it so nobody else will be able to use it. Too much potential for abuse by 3rd party, or even nefarious actors.

The paper has the following in the acknowledgements: " In addition, C.B. particularly thanks Clickspring patrons "

Not only is he a high quality youtuber, he is also a high quality human.

Very Clever. From a compliance perspective - How much back-end infrastructure is required to bootstrap the sync process for the devices? Can this be deployed on customer / private hardware?

Am I missing something - what exactly makes this HN worthy? AFAIK Prepar3d has been around for a long time, and the headline is from 2021.

God I miss Tag's trance trip. (@tagloomis) https://twitter.com/tagloomis eventually merged with soma but its not the same as it used to be. Now its called the trip.

I wonder how much they paid for meta.com

So, should I read this article before reading this article?
