Yes, that seems to be what mine is doing as my ecobee thermostat is able to read info about peak usage times from the mains. I didn't know about the latter part though, I never imagined electric companies were making a play for the int

I was informed maybe 7 or 8 years back that my electric company would be replacing my analog meter with a smart one and always intended to try and glean more information about my electric consumption habits from it. It took me a lot longer

Anyone have a similar fix for Yi/Kami cameras?

I disagree, there are too many variables and ultimately the end user would be th one that knows best. The proper solution isn’t having the library or application dev, who has no idea what kind of network connection the user is running, the

To be sure, complexity isn’t the determinator for whether something is or isn’t in scope for libc though.

This is, essentially, what the previous (largely pathetic) excuse for true asynchronous I/O on Linux did with the libc aio(7) interface to essentially fake support for truly asynchronous file IO. It wasn’t great.

It’s not too much of an exaggeration to say that everything about using fork() instead of vfork() plus exec() is essentially fundamentally broken in modern osdev without a whole stack of hacks to try and patch individual issues one-by-one.

Why? I’ve been using dein since it was released and haven’t needed to switch to anything (though I’ve noticed the momentum shifts quickly between different ones).

See other comments; a slashed variant is available.

The application of known FOSS licenses to what is effectively a binary-only release is misleading and borderline meaningless.

I feel like this is mixing agendas. Is the goal freeing up /temp more regularly (so you don’t inadvertently rely on it, to save space, etc) or is the goal performance? I feel like with modern nvme (or just ssd) the argument for tmpfs o

I actually don’t have a problem with the SSL changes as they specifically pertain to http servers – it’s largely a dived problem with automated solutions compatible with all the major players on most fronts. But certs and every other contex

It’s not clear if this supports dynamic configurations where the server name is pulled out of an nginx map?

Thanks for sharing; that sounds rather reasonable. But I was under the impression that this new "vibe coding" thing was where you start with a "clean slate" altogether (the llm itself generates/picks the "initi

Bugs, yes. Security vulnerabilities? Rarely enough that it wouldn’t make my HN list. It’s not remotely hard to avoid the most common issues.

Disappointed the solution doesn’t just track home power but also other dependencies like the network switch, the wan uplink, etc. sure, you might not be able to push the data if your wan is down but afterwards you should be able to determin

Absolutely but my point (or rather, guess) was that it's a separate issue from the one well-documented in that GitHub link as I don't think random Windows users are doing this reconfiguration and the GH link seems to only affect r

The logical deduction would be that it's not, given that the Find My network has been rolled out for some time and this is new behavior.

No, that is one thing you can do (in zfs this is just setting the recordsize property) but that is not what I am talking about. I am talking about reflashing to have the firmware present logical 4k sectors instead of logical 512b sectors. T

What QA team? No seriously, all OS QA is now virtualized and automated, no more actual QA team.

I'm not entirely sure it's the same issue; all the users there seem to have reflashed the SSDs to use 4k sectors and there are many reports of problems going away or never happening if 512b sector size is used. I'm doubtful W

Lots of negativity in this thread; let me offer a bit of positivity to contrast! The project homepage is awesome, it's a mix between a throwback to retro documentation (with ascii charts) and a console out of godbolt: https:/&#x2

Really curious that o4-mini scores (slightly) higher than o4-mini-high. For whatever this benchmark is worth, it's yet another metric showing Gemini 2.5 Pro is really one of the best all-around models (despite being a bit older now), a
