Given the similarities in port layout (just missing a HDMI and USB3 header), and that the case is nearly identical, I would guess that this router probably is a custom run of the exact same BananaPi board without those headers. Both also us

Might be a difference in use cases. Mostly working in repos under 100k LOC, most of those are under 30k. Primarily golang, python, and terraform. Also a lot of interactive troubleshooting of Kubernetes, GHA, hardware debugging and applicati

I use both. I avoided codex in late 2025 because it was slow as molasses. I tried it again in February and it was on par with Opus speed. I like codex(gpt-5.4 high) more for its ability to nitpick my PRs and find bugs. I like opus 4.6 much

I'm looking at a new car later this year. The limited options for V2H are disappointing.

This predates AI. I've been interviewing candidates(SRE/DevOps) since 2018, so many candidates that claim to have extensive experience with things completely fall apart when you put them in front of a terminal.

No, it happens even with AirPods Pro/Pro2. I have two iPhones and a MBP. I have to keep Bluetooth disabled on the MacBook otherwise it randomly triggers while I'm between podcasts or whatever and squeeze the AirPods to resume, ins

There is a weak association with use of PPIs and memory loss. I myself noticed a difference once I stopped taking omeprazole regularly.

ubnt has been the ubiquiti default login at least back to 2010 when I started using their products, before UniFi was a brand. I always assumed it was short for Ubiquiti Networks.

I had a bash spaghetti code script that I wrote a few years ago to handle TLS certificates(generate CSRs, bundle up trust chains, match keys to certs, etc). It was fragile, slow, extremely dependent on specific versions of OpenSSL, etc. I u

It seems to me like it would be a rather useful exercise to have the smaller model make the routing decision, and below certain confidence thresholds, it sends it to a larger model anyways. Then have the larger model evaluate that choice an

I really would like to see a cost and cooling breakdown. I just can't see how you can do radiative cooling on the scales required, not to mention hardening. I thought this was a troll by Elon, now I'm leaning towards not. I don&#x

I'm surprised we have not seen more investment into RISC-V from Chinese firms. I would think they want to decouple from ARM and the west in general as a dependency. Maybe they view the coup of ARM China as having secured ARM for the ti

One of my consulting customers has been half India, half not for a decade. There is a real push over the last year to wind down the not India half and shift to mostly India. India based folks cost 50-75% less. I realize that quality India h

I use ACME with Google Public CA for this reason. No one bats an eye at GPCA. Also, their limits are dramatically higher than LE. Good news for your manual renewal friends, renewals drop to 197 days in February, halving again the year after

Strange to see this device here. I have one and use it extensively, but this isn't even the current generation. It does work well as a travel router, and can pull north of 400Mbps over WireGuard. Runs openwrt, but not upstream, so inst

ATMs all over are like this. Very annoying. I have to decline conversation all the time. The ATM conversation rate is usually 15-25% markup. No thanks, my bank charges nothing, just passes on the Visa 1% fee for fx.

If you had ever purchased a RyanAir ticket you would understand. You get up charged for everything and have to deselect all the up charges at multiple screens. It is their operating model to sell basically free seats, and profit on upsells.

This is my exact setup. Maybe I don't have many issues because I literally only have the NS2/PS5Pro turn on the TV/change input. I still use the AppleTV remote to adjust volume no matter the input.

F500, we have a pretty custom ServiceNow, but all I do is put the ticket or any other identifier in the search box and go. Takes 2 seconds to be in the ticket. Granted, that interface sucks too, but I suspect your main problem is internal t

Yes. With Windows 3.x there wasn’t a lot to go wrong that couldn’t be fixed in a single ini file. Windows 95 through ME was a complete shitshow where many many things could go wrong and the fastest path to fixing it was a fresh install. Win

Hundreds, maybe even thousands. I jest, but probably the $150 sales of the TouchID keyboard would tank as they are displaced by such a device.

Nice. I was hoping a vdev for the dedup table would come along. I've wanted to use optane for the dedup table and see how it performs.

That's only for ZFS deduplication which you should never enable unless you have very, very specific use cases. For normal use, 2GB of RAM for that setup would be fine. But more RAM is more readily available cache, so more is better. It

If you can't tolerate macOS, you can get a used M1/M2 which will run Linux really well. That's a challenge this machine has, it has to compete with things like a used 64GB M1 Max Mac Studio for $900 when the equivalent confi

This is my concern as well. I suspect this will struggle versus a PS5 because even though the PS5 only has 16GB total, its unified, so it can be allocated more towards VRAM if needed. If they are selling this for $300-400, it will be a hot

The entire point of USAID was to be a central clearinghouse for funding U.S. government pet projects so that the CIA/DoD/DoS stopped funding opposite sides against each other. Didn't always work (See the Middle East), but tha

Let me preface this one with the statement that I am completely against regime change wars. This is one scenario where it might actually have a positive outcome. Maduro looks to have barely won his reelection in 2018. The 2024 election he l

My guess from previous reporting on this, it was an experiment that might not ever be released. ARM isn't nearly as interesting given the strides both Intel and AMD have made with low power cores. Any scenario where SoundWave makes sen

While Sodium Ion may be the future of grid batteries, it's not the present. As long as LFP is cheaper, there is no reason to go with Sodium. This calculus will probably change in 3-5 years, but today Sodium is more expensive and theref
