Sounds like the sign of a badly run department. If they can't have some continuity/consistency, people will build less because it's a hassle and their community will eventually suffer.

you might get screwed on regulatory compliance, it just depends on your local govt and how much they want to screw you. It's got to suck to do the inspectors job. Having to keep up with whatever the code creators come up with, while

You can put in an awning or covered walkway between the buildings. You can even do a fully enclosed, fully climate controlled hallway with lots of windows and doors out to the yard, etc. Just depends on how much you want to pay and your ima

Not Montana apparently. They don't even have an HVAC contractor license anymore that I can find.

Calibre does this for you and has for a long time. Docs: https://manual.calibre-ebook.com/news.html I used to read lwn.net from my e-reader, worked great.

I don't think so? I mean they certainly lack ethics, but I think it's a point of pride thing, and not a we should at least pretend sort of thing. Oracle at least pretends to care about ethics, and already has the position.

Or maybe Oracle.

It will be interesting to see how this works out in practice. Personally I don't see much use from it, but I'll give it a try after it ships and see how it works in practice.

Seems like we are trying to solve 2 problems at the same time with SCROLL: * Database sync of log events. * "Real" time updates. Webhooks can already mostly handle the "real-time" event portion. Of course there are prob

Depends on the VC. Some VC's are happy to own great businesses, even long term. Most are definitely vultures after a quick turn around. Mostly it has to do with where the VC gets their funding. Most VC's get their funding from off

Yes, though it wouldn't have to be in Python. APE/Cosmopolitan can work with many/most languages, not just Python.

My advice: Just use SQLite. Don't use PG if you don't need it. I mean PG is awesome . I use it all the time, but I also use SQLite all the time too. SQLite is also a replacement for fopen()[0]. if you need to read/write data

Yes, I'm sure the WASM binary for PG has a big perf hit. If you are just using it for testing, it probably doesn't matter? Why does the perf hit matter to you? Are you trying to run WASM binaries of PG in production? That seems li

Not PG no. At least not yet. I wonder if they can get WASM to work, which seems to be working roughly the same problem from a totally different starting point and perspective. I'm pretty sure PG binaries for WASM do exist though.

There is also the APE/Cosmopolitan cross platform binaries, which includes a python. Yes, cross platform binaries. The binaries run "natively on Linux + Mac + Windows + FreeBSD + OpenBSD 7.3 + NetBSD + BIOS with the best possible

Neat, I haven't heard of/tried NetBird yet. Always more stuff out there to tinker with!

Interesting! I use it only occasionally, but I don't leave the connection on. I only turn the iOS Tailscale connection on when I need to access resources behind Tailscale. Are you having issues with it when it's always connected?

That generally turns out to be the same thing as me, just said more succinctly. I agree with your thinking.

Sort of True-ish. There are lots of different kinds of ownership. Ownership with little to no say in how things are run to ownership with basically all the control. If you are an owner with all the control, i.e. you are on the board or in c

They almost certainly need fans on the outside of the building to cool the 55C water back down to 45C. But correct, no fans on the servers themselves or even in the building. Except perhaps for the humans, so they can stand to work inside t

Indeed. Category #4 "high yield corporate bonds" are also known as "Junk bonds" because they kind of suck at the stable cashflow part, since they tend to go to $0 sometimes, much like stocks. Technically when bonds &quot

While partially true, that "If you have better behavioral tolerance for volatility" is HUGE. Most people can not do this. Once they see their net worth go from $x to $x/2 or worse, they panic sell. People are emotional beings
