Why compare a "full-featured", do-everything OS like Ubuntu with something pre-systemd when you're concerned about memory consumption? I just checked a random debian 12 system (with systemd) running a bunch of services at hom

When I put my password in plaintext in git it shows up as ****. Can you try with yours and see if the same thing happens? Share the repo with me so I can check!

Cannabis works great for stress for a week, then it makes things worse for me. A few weeks off, and I can take advantage again.

I think it’s a combination of incredible weight, lots of aerobic activity, and the cold which masks some of the fatigue that might tell you to take a break. I am over 40, and over an inch or two just pay someone to deal with the snow.

I used to wonder how the US population could be so stupid to elect someone counter to their best interests, then threads like these remind me that people are really, really bad at logic and such.

Likely because it is not related to startups, technology, and so on. Probably not the best fit for HN.

I’ve lived with enough nightmare roommates in my college experience to know many people probably have some sort of disability that precludes them from having a roommate.

This is the exact tech job market to start looking and have interviews/offers scheduled so you're not screwed when layoffs happen.

Solar radiation like solar wind, or sunlight? They don’t say.

I love pooping and having my dog visit. A little someone to talk to rather than scroll.

Important legal documents are shipped via FedEx every day. Can’t just ignore it like you ignore regular mail.

That’s not what the Nordic data show. Sweden didn’t “end up doing better.” It had by far the worst COVID-19 mortality in 2020, because it kept society open while its neighbors used strict controls. The only reason Sweden’s later all-cause m

Priority or Express mail. FedEx or UPS can also send documents. The idea is to bypass the normal mail room as much as possible and to get the thing on the desk of someone who is not limited by stupid rules.

Send the letter via overnight mail - or better yet, FedEx. Mail goes to a mail room which may or may not be screened. FedEx seems far more “important”, and make it to the executive’s assistant’s desk who is far more likely to act on it.

Executive Email Carpet Bombing no longer works well, even with a cogent, calm, clear explanation of the issue and what you want them to do. At best it gets sent to a customer service manager, but in my experience it often gets sent to a bla

Twitter support escalation worked in the mid 2010s, but basically now the only effective escalation is to send a letter via overnight mail to the CEO office. This has worked for me for major ISPs, cell phone companies, furniture retailers,

No, that’s in literally every LLM generated response to a forum message I’ve seen. It’s so common as to have become a trope. That’s not confidence. It’s a clear indicator of AI.

You remember incorrectly. Norway and Sweden took opposite approaches in 2020—Norway used strict lockdowns, tight border controls, and intensive outbreak tracking, while Sweden kept society largely open. The results weren’t subtle. As the Ju
