How is what the author wants any different from playing the game and ignoring any of the side content they don’t want to do?

We tag reviewers on Gitlab when needed, usually if the person is on a different team, but also we have a dedicated channel to post MR links and if they don’t get seen within a couple hours we bump the post a few times. When THAT doesn’t work we ping people privately.

Seconding this, Project Farm absolutely rules. I’m not the target demographic for probably half the stuff he reviews but I’m always impressed with his videos.

That said I’m a little curious if any kind of Gell-Mann effect is going on since he never reviews products that I already have extensive experience with. I’m wondering if anyone has watched any of his reviews and came away feeling like he did a really poor job.

I would have said k9s (free) and k9s alpha (pay for additional features), but it looks like the k9s alpha site is not up/working at the moment. k9s itself still gets regular updates, but I’m not sure what the status of k9s alpha is anymore. I had assumed it was still available, but I never tracked it too closely.

In Apple Music I look forward to the playlist of 100% new (to you?) songs that it offers every Friday. The Discovery station is usually good too, but I find more keepers from the Friday playlist than others usually.

Bandcamp is definitely the best for finding completely new artists and genres though, for me at least. Something about their featured “New and Notable” posts makes me willing to just try a new genre or artist, much more readily than other services. And I strongly agree on your point about user profiles being public. The “what’s your favorite song on this album” and “why do you love this album” text fields that you can see all over are full of comments that are just wonderful.

Intentionally restricting apps from using core features of the OS with a paywall is making its products work?

Or as they might phrase it, a skill issue.

In addition I feel like an account here having a long history/high karma is somewhat unique versus other sites since some actions and features aren’t usable until you’ve passed certain thresholds. To me at least this is interesting to think about, but I also don’t have accounts in any platform besides this one, so I don’t know for certain what other places do.

Yeah I share the same experience in IL, I turned my Amber Alerts off after being woken up by one at around 2am for some incident at the far end of the state 350 miles away. Like you say though, the weather alerts have worked pretty well for me, too.

I use it as a store for all the amiibo data I might want, as well as a universal remote for my TVs and fan/light in the house. I also use it on the TVs and receivers at work when someone misplaces or loses the remotes, and keep a separate one in the car with a few garage codes for my parents and siblings houses.

The wifi board is fun to play with to learn about how some of the more common/basic SSID spoofing and broadcast spam attacks and similar things work. There are some fun HID device attacks you can check out too that are pretty cool. I also used it as a jumping off point to dabble with programming in C and using gdb and stuff like that.

youtube on firefox works just fine for me. can you describe this means it’s bricked?

I agree, it rubs me the wrong way that simply enjoying or consuming a particular thing or doing certain activities seems to automatically make you part of the “community” of that thing. Or maybe this isn’t really true and is just what I perceive.

But I don’t like feeling like I am being spoken for, or have it automatically assumed that everyone partaking in something all share a set of values or community-wide beliefs.

this is me, I drink about a pot per day and sometimes drink caffeinated soda with food. only a small amount of half and half in the coffee. my sleep schedule is pretty routine, hardly ever stay up past 11:30 and wake up naturally with no alarm between 6:30 and 8 every morning.

it is noticeable if i don’t have a cup at least at some point during the day but there are plenty of days i don’t have as much or hardly at all. but i just like the warmth and how it tastes, the caffeine is a non factor if i decide to have a cup or not.

other things that are probably significant factors: low stress job at a small private company where i don’t really have hard deadlines or deliverables and WFH as much as i want; wife and pets but no kids; low stress otherwise is areas of my life

I have heard even Manchester sometimes spoken that way as well, depending on who you’re talking to.

yep, definitely no middle ground between “happiness contingent on the well-being of the planet and other life” and “soulless wealth-chasing imbecile”

If you have it already, another alternative is to use BetterTouchTool and set it to override the behavior of the green corner button. For me it works just like Windows where there’s “minimize” on the yellow button and “maximize” on the green. I still use gestures like exposé but never have to worry about switching desktops or getting stuck in full screen.

I’ve seen two cars driving without plates within 5 miles of my house just this week.

Do you see police officers every single time you drive anywhere (or walk, bike, bus, whatever)? I know I don’t. And even if you do see one, they might have multiple reasons they’ll cite for why they didn’t stop X vehicle for Y infraction.

kubectl with “-o json”

It’s a theme of Dr. Hiliruk’s last speech in One Piece as well

I haven’t checked github, but on gitlab this is a user preference setting that you can change. But I do wish that the full timestamps were the default.

Two-up sounds pretty fun. Your comment in turn made me think of Chō-han, which is somewhat similar but involves rolling dice instead of flipping coins. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ch%C5%8D-han

loose for me is “loos” or “lewss” with an emphasis on making the “s” sound like “s”, versus lose sounding like “looze” or “lewz” that have a “z” sound at the end.

which is interesting for sure since “loser” still has the Z sound (mostly), and to make something less tight you make it “looser” with an S sound.

My company does this. if i start work at 7 i can stop at 3, 8-4, etc. Before we went widely WFH if you were in the office for 8 hours that was it. People ought to have been pushing back on the whole “8 hours is actually 9 hours” years ago.

just google ruining the experience as usual. same with youtube on iOS, they get away with it so why not try breaking the rules everywhere.

my guess is Amway

started with a degree from art school and very basic linux skills, lucked my way into a basic NOC position doing simple things like pulling logs, opening tickets, troubleshooting network issues and SIP problems, standard operations stuff like change management, working with the sysadmin team on deployments, etc. Started automating that stuff once I was comfortable with Linux/shell and eventually got inspired to set up a raspberry pi at home to tinker with. Spent the better part of a year wading through the deep end, trying to get myself up to speed on most of the basic/middle tier concepts, then finally at one of my reviews I asked to be moved to an opening on the SRE team and they said “sure, we’d like to keep you so if that’s what you want we’ll make it work”.

I write ‘a’ this way, but my hand movement is more like making a lower case ‘d’ with | and then o without lifting. but in the case of ‘a’ the stem is a curved motion to start with.

i think helm is “fine”, but the more i use it and get deep into some more advanced uses the more i dislike it.

helm has a tendency to sprawl really fast. the ability to template any part of a manifest can lead to “if there is even a chance the default will ever be changed we should make it a template” (at my company at least). when your entire chart is “if values.thing X, else Y”, it makes it difficult to be confident about what exactly will be deployed. especially if you only have a chart and values can be inserted in many places (helmfile). without helm template it’s sometimes impossible to reason with all the meta-templates.

speaking of debugging, helm template sometimes has very awful debug output and traces of where your error is. in more simple charts it’s not so bad. with library charts you can spend hours debugging, say, your deployment.yaml because it’s saying there’s an error on line 4 of the template, but line 4 is just some label or benign key, and oh finally i figured out that the deployment expects the configmap to be rendered, and the typo is in line 4 of the CM, not the deployment

helm lint doesn’t catch duplicate keys? i found that one weird

tools like argocd don’t like helm too much. yeah you can make it work, but flat yaml is so much simpler. and if you use helm + argo, it turns the helm into flat yaml anyway

i have heavy dislike of the syntax of ‘and values.thing1 values.thing2’ in a templated line. (same with ‘or’, though this might just be a personal hangup)

finally, to be positive, the one thing i really like about helm actually is the checksum function that changes a label on the deploy/sts/ds when you change config, so pods automatically roll over.
