The last time I checked, audio and video firmware wasn't there.

I'm surprised that not only is there no application firewall for any of the BSDs, there doesn't even seem to be any need for it. There is OpenSnitch, but only for Linux.

I'd be interested in learning which commands you have in mind and what specifically is a bit nicer about their coreutils implementation.

Unless you're Tom, you'll have to work on tickets assigned to you by some manager.

In a world where HA is key, PostgreSQL has nothing to offer.

Give Mastodon a threaded view and technically it's the same as reddit, but federated? Usenet, but not just for nerds.

While waiting for PG 16 you can upgrade to 15.

So you DO search for answers to mainframe questions on s**overflow?

Postgres actually does have thousands of engineers but it's not easy to notice because they all share the same name. https://www.citusdata.com/blog/2017/04/20/analyzing-postgres...…

Not for free (have to pay EnterpriseDB for that). Every free option here is basically "glue pieces together to build your own HA".

Gavin's personal project is being used in production.

> The BSD answer to the problems with strncpy() was to introduce a new function called strlcpy() Not BSD, it was OpenBSD specifically.

Have you tried auditing ZFS? That's way too much code to be secure, it's best for OpenBSD to never import it.

> The flag is called in-place for a reason. What's the reason? Surprisingly, the file is never edited in place.

How is backup restoration any easier if your whole PostgreSQL cluster goes back in time when you only wanted to rewind that one tenant?

Cassandra may be great when you have to scale your database that you no longer develop significantly. The problem with this DB system is that you have to know all the queries befor…

You can disable building the "whole fucking C compiler suite" using WITHOUT_CLANG as documented in https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=src.conf By the way, as an example, you…

They mean: lose one drive and have another with bit rot.

- "RAID is not a backup" primarily because "you could rm -rf". ZFS snapshots cover that failure mode to the same extent that synchronization with offsite does, but cheaper. ZFS sna…

> we really integrated S3 into the storage Will it be possible to use something else in place of S3? I'm thinking on-premise or what some would call a private cloud.

They have a history of working with open source projects only to the extent that allows them to push some of their work upstream so that the burden of maintaining it is shared, whi…
