I am a fan of John McWhorter. I've recently gotten into his podcast Lexicon Valley and I recommend it highly if you are interested in language and how we use it. https://lexiconvalley.substack.com/

Apple is well regarded for their strategy. I don't find it very credible that Apple is reacting here, it seems apparent that they would anticipate substantial negative reception. So this delay is preordained in the strat, right? But Ap

RIP grafana ^^ this is not a good contribution to HN, not much substance. (edit) Many people who use Grafana will see this news and will stop planning on using Grafana and start planning on doing something else. That has nothing to do with

CGNAT block is popular in private k8s as overlay network address space because often the enterprise network already claims rfc1918 blocks. I'm not sure how close to the line that kind of usage is but I suspect it is SHOULD NOT. Speakin

Many projects don't even need cluster state, they could have just used a Makefile and some sed templating [0] (get off my lawn). Thankfully in these cases you can use helm offline to render the templates then just apply them but it&#x2

This has happened to me with Firefox. Thankfully there is Waterfox. Recently this came up in discussion with a software developer who was overly concerned with openssl certificate minutiae. I advised the only durable solution for his concer

This is what I'm talking about wrt bitching and moaning, in summary you tried to use ES but you didn't rtfm or didn't know about jvm tuning or didn't scale test and found out the weekend is a bad time to come up to speed

If someone would say that on HackerNews then they would expect to hear "citation needed". Anecdotally what I hear is a bunch of bitching and moaning about ES yet it clearly does work and has generally all of the difficulties of an

AboveNet built out a datacenter in a mostly derelict mall in the middle of downtown San Jose. At the time the irony of ecommerce servers in an abandoned mall was fresh and surreal.

There was a street seller who was so distressed by the economic conditions and especially the petty corruption that he publicly set himself on fire. Almost a decade later, possibly the cops on the beat shakedown situation has improved but g

Commonly on windows, build pipeline tools don't work when they don't have a desktop environment even though there's no requirement for human interface (indeed, requirement for no human). The advent of Server Nano motivates a
