Probably because when he was a child and asked for help, he was told to “man up”. So now that he’s a man, asking for help would mean he’s not a man.

Good news in furthering Postgres adoption I guess. I mean most stuff was going that way anyway, but this will likely speed things up.

If you’re using a recent version of Chrome, Google has stunted the capabilities of many ad blockers. Suggest using another browser and/or using something that catches this stuff before it gets to your browser like a properly configured pihole. Otherwise, configure your ad blockers more aggressively, especially for sites that are less likely to screen their ads.

I think most devs even only have worked in software companies that sell software where devops isn’t as critical and complex since there’s not “production” environments. When you work for a company who makes software for themselves and/or hosts software from other companies themselves, devops is a much bigger deal. Even moreso if it’s a heavily regulated industry like healthcare. Most other companies don’t spend much on devops or even often make the developers do that work themselves.

The overhead and performance hit aren’t worth it for me in general since these browsers are set up to enforce secure connections as long as you don’t override it. And I don’t have to worry about government level website filtering. I do see the value in tunnels for stopping the ISPs from tracking and selling the list of sites you connect to, but I’d rather set up my own proxy for that if I felt it was worth it. It’s easy enough to set up a web proxy on a small, cheap, remote VPS or pay for a trustworthy service with no logging so the ISP would just see that connection and it would be way faster. I don’t see much value in using a Tor browser otherwise anymore now that HTTPS is ubiquitous and secure DNS exists, unless you want to access things not on the public web.

Or you realize it’s not “intelligent” like the marketing suggests and realize it is eating tons of resources at almost all companies by being incapable of accurately doing the things it’s being used for (mostly to replace employees). So you are waiting, impatiently, for the buzz to fade so that executives wasting time and money on it will allow that money to be spent on more substantial needs, like hiring people.

LibreWolf on desktop and Mull on Android. Basically Firefox with a little more privacy.

Be autistic and you probably won’t get used to accents…lol. One of my traits is the inability to form habits or “get used to” things in general.

There’s really no need to reverse proxy ssh. What are you attempting to accomplish with the reverse proxy exactly? Http proxying allows you to add things like TLS encryption and modify headers. But ssh is a secure protocol already and you can’t really modify much in transit.

I have a similar relationship with “Dancer in the Dark” whenever I get around to it. I always cry…

Would only be worth it if you created a system for easily deploying applications on an already set up subnet with routing preconfigured.

Like set up a single server kubernetes distribution like microk8s or minikube on the server with metalLB and ingress already preconfigured on the server and router. You could also give instructions on how to install a GUI like Lens and how to use it to deploy a few things. Probably using workstation applications would be better than a web UI like Portainer to keep the server lighter, but either might work.

My Facebook and Instagram are now >3/4 stuff that I didn’t follow. Not all are explicitly advertisements, but they aren’t things I wanted to see. That’s why I’m moving to federated services. Just wish I could convince more of my friends and family to move over. I use Lemmy as a replacement for Reddit so it’s more widely social, but the other stuff I only really used for friends, family, or special interest groups.

COVID, MAGA, Q Anon, support by poor people for defunding of schools and infrastructure even as bridges collapse and water systems are becoming poisonous while supporting building new tactical nuclear weapons that the country doesn’t even have a use for unless the intend to start nuking Mexico which would mean more refugees, not fewer…etc.

They removed the requirement for a DUNS for individual developers, so I switched my account to individual from my previous LLC. My LLC has been inactive for a long time and I didn’t feel like changing my address with the IRS and all that. But all of my apps are free.

But the real issue is they keep making it more difficult to keep the app active. There are so many documentation requirements that I just didn’t have time for, so my apps which are really old got removed over one of those new requirements a while back. I fixed a few like making it an adults only app because it has a recipe for mulled wine. But it just wasn’t worth all the other stuff and I haven’t wanted to recompile in the newer SDK. If I could do it without making any changes to the code it would be fine, but there’s been too many changes. One of these days I’ll update it, but I’m one of the few people who even use my apps, so it’s not a big deal.

Clutch must be depressed on most modern cars or it won’t start, though it’s technically not required if in neutral. And best to depress the brake pedal as well, again, many modern cars won’t even start if you don’t.

And although it doesn’t matter what gear the shifter is in when the clutch is depressed, put it in neutral, so that if you accidentally let off the clutch after starting it, you don’t move, grind gears, or lurch and stall which puts strain on the gearbox and brakes. I’ve done that many times before I started checking the shifter first. Many people put the shifter in first gear when parked as an engine brake in case the parking brake fails.

But OpenAI not being allowed to use the content for free means they are being prevented from making a profit, whereas the Internet Archive is giving away the stuff for free and taking away the right of the authors to profit. /s

Disclaimer: this is the argument that OpenAI is using currently, not my opinion.

Better than the gas that Russia is using illegally that causes serious pain and often takes a long time to die painfully from.

It absolutely should be talked about. All events in all of the world should be talked about as long as it involves factual information, which can sometimes be hard to come by these days . It’s only extremists trying to create false narratives who would say otherwise. And mostly only because they don’t want you telling the people they control the truth or they’re so dependent using the lie to their advantage that even they don’t want to know the truth.
