  • ...wasn't it supposed to be other way around?

  • Linux revoked my mic permissions in the middle of a call today, on Google Meet. Happened before on Zoom.

    I have not root-caused it to see if there was flaky hardware or what.

  • Ah yes, a twisted pair.

  • If you run for office to be different from all the rest and win, do you immediately become corrupted upon election?

  • That awesome wireless charger for electric bikes just hit a surprise hurdle

    Jump

  • There’s some truth to that. I’ve had some USB ports fail on phones that were quite a pain to fix or not really fixable at all.

    Wireless charging of a phone avoids degrading the USB port through more use. The difference with a phone is that the absolute amount of inefficiency is so much smaller because a phone battery is so much smaller than a bike.

  • But it’s inefficient. In the 1 hour you are shopping, it’s going to charge far less than a physical connection and in terms of environment impact, you are wasting energy compared to taking 30 seconds to plug in a bike. Then there’s the issue that no bikes support this but several use compatible charging interfaces. I don’t expect this to go anywhere any time soon.

  • Nice. What do you use wifi access at home? One thing the AT&T box has done well enough has been to provide wifi access throughout the house.

  • Yes, we went over this point multiple times, including the distinction between a reboot and a factory reset. He said the device does this to "protect itself". Although I only care about protecting from blips, I think a small UPS may be the way to go. Though guess that means if the power is out for more than 15 minutes, my AT&T modem may still factory reset itself!

  • The marketing mixes metaphors, talking about gardening, growing, curating… all part of sustainable process that includes plants dying.

    It also uses words like forever and permanent.

    Having content live forever is at odds with metaphors of the natural world, where things naturally die.

  • All US Social Security numbers may need to be changed following a massive breach that is already being investigated as a national threat

    Jump

  • Clickbait headline.

    SSNs have been understood to not be a reliable “secret” for years and were never intended to be one.

    The solution has always been to quite treating them that way, not to repeat the same mistake of creating yet another database full of new SSNs which would also be quickly compromised.

  • I have made a Kubernetes to Docker-compose converter/devolver. It's horrible. It's glorious.

    Jump

  • How does it handle helm features that are not valid compose features? Silent failure or loud warning?

  • Vegan toddlers can grow at the same rate as omnivores

    Jump

  • My vegetarian-since-birth son has been one of the consistently tallest in his class and set his middle school all-time record for fastest 1600m run… so I reached the conclusion that his diet isn’t holding him back at all. Indeed, it may be an advantage.

  • why does my knife need a web browser smh

  • Are they European?

  • This bizarre new saddle could kill bum pain and erectile dysfunction, says cycling surgeon | BikeRadar

    Jump

  • Right? Split saddles have been around for decades.

  • Wikipedia is one of the last genuine places on the Internet, and these rat bastards are trying to contaminate that, too

  • Or you could change the preference to enable the feature again.

  • Reverse Proxy: a single point of failure in my lab

    Jump

  • To explain how HAproxy and competing tools solve this:

    Two servers are prepared to be the single reverse proxy, but one is active. They constantly communicate with a “heartbeat”. When the active one fails to send a heartbeat, the secondary executes the steps to become the active primary. When the primary’s heart starts beating again, it becomes active again.

    So there can be a few seconds of downtime, but the failover is automatic.

  • Introducing Hypermind: A fully decentralized, P2P, high-availability solution to a problem that doesn't exist.

  • Yes, especially if people use the “latest” tag, trusting whatever the container might be updated to do in the future.
