"Render useless" makes me think of something more like the F00F bug - hard lockup until a reboot. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentium_F00F_bug OS vendors worked around it in software.

For starters, that "just" is swallowing: - Identify the relevant tokens you want to scan for, and create regular expressions to capture them. - Create a token alert service which accepts webhooks from GitHub that contain the token

We do several of these things, and bundling them together looks nice; I imagine troubleshooting the pipeline is much easier. We would need the enterprise version because we are on-prem, and our user count compared against the 'pro&#x27

Reminds me of a saying from the first dot.com crash. (Or at least I heard it then first.) Tying two bricks together doesn't make them float.

Why keep yourself in a position where you have to ask FB for permission to speak? Vote with your feet. Build a website FB doesn't control.

Many of us in California don't care if you think they "shouldn't" live here. I'm perfectly well aware of the economic and tribal arguments. The former are not convincing and the proponents of the latter can go pound

So, explain this. I mean, it is a positive step that you've backed off your strange "rage" accusation, but why do you consider my stance on the technical merits of this step irrational?

Why does any criticism of systemd have to be due to "rage"? There is this ongoing behavior whereby anything other than fawning praise is treated as irrational and emotion-driven. You may as well ask why Lennart rages so hard agai

I think this may be where I step off the train. I grumbled, but can live with it as init, and it is easy enough to disable the ntp and name resolution nonsense to use decent tools. Buy systemd has no business sticking its nose in authentica

There has been more than one Cisco vulnerability that struck people as suspicious. I know it comes to my mind every time I see the string "Cisco zero day", whether or not it seems likely in any particular case.

Don't fall for the trap that this is about "big tech". It isn't. It is about your freedom of speech and ability to protect yourself.

The problem would be that they would no longer be academics. For a lot of people who head down that path, they consider it more of a vocation than a job. It may well be a good thing for all the next folks who consider the path, but it choos

Some time ago I saw an Iphone app that could "read" resistors by pointing your camera at them, but can't find it now. Googling, I see one for Android, which I don't use: https://play.google.com/store&#x2F

Conservative != bigot/anti-gay. We do have a brood of reactionaries attempting to blur that distinction like they always do, but there are plenty of conservatives who do not share that particular bias.

Sounds like you turned on dedupe, or had an absurdly wide stripe size. You do need to match your array structure to your needs as well as tune ZFS. On our backup servers (45 disks, 6-wide Z2 stripes) easily handle wire-speed 10G with 32G AR

Linus is just wrong as far as maintenance, as a look at the linux-zfs lists would show. From my perspective, it has no real competitor under linux, which is why I use it. I don't consider brtfs mature enough for critical data. (Others

No, but even if the crazy person is correct in this instance, I'm still not relying on them for political/personal safety/vitamin/any other information of any consequence.

Education is a very "enterprisey" market in which the purchasers are not the users, who are essentially powerless. Pearson doesn't need to deliver quality, they need to deliver functional + whatever sweetener on the rest of t

Taste is intensely personal, and everyone gets their own. Impact on the genre and on culture in general, however, is an more objective thing, and by that measure, Gibson is a giant. > I never understood why Gibson has been written about
