I agree that removing the container would be better on resources.

However, most self-hosted software is already "pre-packaged" in Docker containers. It's much easier to grab that "off-the-shelf" than have to build out something custom.

Pretty interesting take on a finance app! I like the inbox and filters on transactions. I'm not sure I understand the benefit of storing it all in the browser though. Does the data just live in the browser? Does anything store on a server?

For anyone that used Evernote as a "Document Storage" app instead of just purely notes, I found Notebooks, https://www.notebooksapp.com/, https://www.notebooksapp.com/ to be a good replacement.

It works with files on your harddrive and your existing cloud storage (icloud / dropbox.) macOS/iOS only, but for someone who primarily is storing PDFs this was a much better fit than more alternates that are for taking notes.

I have the same experience. Skul works great on the Deck. I initially didn't even try it until I saw a comment from someone telling me it works. The "Unsupported" tag is intimidating. Now I'll test out even the Unsupported ones.

Exactly. I subscribe to the hacker newsletter which gives me a digest of the highlights once a week. Rarely hit the homepage on my own anymore, but I do browse some of the topics once a week when I read that newsletter.

I would love to see what you're doing here. I'm pulling it from JHU, it's been pretty consistent, but not as up to date as I would like. But I'm looking into aggregating data from other places such as Wikipedia. It would be great if there was more of a group effort here.

I've seen some efforts such as: https://github.com/covid19-data/covid19-data which is looking to separate out the data aggregation from the dashboard. However, they are scrubbing out the state-based information which I rely on.

According to their article it sounds like you should be receiving updates. I'm not sure if that was different during Loki though.

> Due to the rolling nature of elementary OS updates, users of elementary OS 5 Juno get the update to 5.1 Hera alongside regular system updates from AppCenter.

They do a simple count of items you have against what's on the receipt. If the count is off, I may have left something at the register. As well, if I have something large they offer assistance to get it loaded. I have no issues with this check and find it helpful.

The article gives little information to trust this source.

> The bones have unfortunately since been lost, and so cannot be analysed.

The actual written paper I hope gives more (though I haven't read through it yet.)

I could never find anything actionable in NewRelic. Seems like interesting data, but nothing I could optimize for. Skylight has identified slow performing areas where we've worked on and watched a downward trend.

I assume he means that you should always set a password for "root". Though most users don't even knows it exists.. hence it should have been taken care of by apple.

Windows 7 has been on the market since 2009 while High Sierra has been out since June of this year. I feel like we're not comparing apples to apples here.. I'm sure both companies are releasing security fixes consistently and Win7 has clearly had more of them in 8 years.

I have so far been unimpressed with GLUE.

FWIW, I'm also baffled that this is a problem to solve.

Yes. Filestorage is an essential piece of most apps we build and keeps us tied to Amazon (or other competitors like Microsoft or Google who have storage.)

It defines a firewall outside of your machine so your iptables/firewalld configuration on individual droplets can be much simpler. (assuming it works like security groups on AWS, create one apply to many.)

Looks interesting. However, it seems to maybe assume you're using bash? Using the fish-shell it seems to have simply broken ssh and git operations with incorrect syntax. I had to run `kr uninstall` to get things back to normal (it fails when it's running fish or if I drop into bash so it's somehow looking at my default shell.)

I submitted a ticket on the repo.

Any benefit in using this inside a docker container instead of nginx? No need for SSL or many of the other features I'm seeing listed here since it's all behind an Amazon ELB.

I believe this is squarely where Nintendo lives, in the family space. We have all of the consoles available to my kids. The only ones they play? Wii and Wii U. Don't care about Xbox or PS because of the Nintendo's first party titles.

I've read two books recently:

* Contact by Carl Sagan

I had previously seen the movie. The book (or rather the movie) takes a bit of a departure. The backgrounds on all the different characters as well as the political parts weren't that interesting to me. But overall the book was great.

* We Are Legion (We Are Bob) (Bobiverse) by Dennis Taylor

I'd suggest listening to it on Audiobook. Excellent read. Makes me want to buy the book and read through it again. I can't wait until the next one comes out in (March?)

I was curious about IPFS support as well. The docs mention it near the bottom: https://beakerbrowser.com/docs/index.html

Sounds like you need the IPFS daemon running for it to work.

Somewhat of a relief to read this. As much as I have zero connection with these animals I'd rather not see them go extinct.

How is Sketch file support? When we've tried to share files via Dropbox it's constantly stepping on each others toes just when someone tries to open it for view-only. Makes collaboration difficult between a designer and a developer.

*Sketch files are actually folders with data, previews, etc. The act of opening the file actually modifies things like the thumbnail.

>> What is SpruceMail? <<

We're building out the next generation marketing platform that connects together traditional email marketing into the social world. While we get to do the complicated stuff on the backend we try to keep it as simple as possible for the user to use.

We've been around for 5 years in the social advertising space and managed more than $250 million in Facebook ad spend. Have managed many of the world's leading brands including Samsung, McDonalds, PepsiCo, Target, University of Phoenix, Walmart and Zynga.

Really excited to see this get active again. GoboLinux sets itself apart from other distributions being one of the few that tackle a drastic change to the filesystem. They keep compatibility with the filesystem hierarchy standard via symlinks but that is mostly hidden from the user.

For those wondering about more information there is definitely a better writeup about the file system layout on wikipedia.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GoboLinux

As well as more recently written slides

http://gobolinux.org/doc/fisl2014/GoboLinux-015.pdf

I'd say the filesystem is really the differentiator here. Back when I first tried it out boot times were insanely fast compared to other distros of the day. However I'm sure that gap has been shortened (if not inversed.. haven't tried the latest version.)

Not saying the filesystem had anything to do with the boottimes. That was because they use a different boot system.

I had the exact same thing happen to me. 2 days of 20 instances running and then amazon called me. I shut it down and revoked permissions immediately.

They did refund the money.

Interesting ideas. Attachment icons seem nice. Other than that though the rest of the features aren't helpful for me (or at least not enough that I'd want to install it.)

Total # of emails however can be setup to show only your "Primary" inbox. This allows me to check the other tabs much much less often since I'm only motivated to keep the # to 0.

The GPL and paying for a product are completely different things and they can exist together (i.e. paying for a product that is itself GPL)

Some organizations don't allow it by company policy, regardless of whether it can be installed.
