Agreed, in many Spring projects I worked migrations were handled by flyway or liquibase while the ORM was always Hibernate.

I was also really surprised with Haxe, I share the author’s concerns about its future, other than it’s quite fun to work with.

Not the whole codebase, only the window manager (compositor is the Wayland equivalent). Other components are written in C and will remain so for the foreseeable future. Those compo…

I have a contract with a smaller German ISP (Pyur), they do throttling too, uploading to Backblaze quickly gets capped to a few hundred bytes, sometimes the connection gets aborted…

That’s why example.com states “Avoid use in operations”, not only that could create unnecessary traffic for them as well as leak information as in situations like this.

This weekend I gave Zed another chance, this time it didn’t make me uninstall it after one hour or so. It’s much more polished, there are a few wrinkles but overall it’s finally pl…

Game Maker 4.2 and then C with Allegro, lots of unfinished games and prototypes, but it was fun.

RTX 3060 mobile, nvidia blobs, default settings from the distro. Indeed, I disabled the shader cache at some point, for most single player games it was a good workaround, that was …

After many years playing on Linux, first struggling with Wine then with Proton when it came out, had to install Windows on my gaming pc. I mostly play Overwatch 2 with friends on m…

If handbrake scares them, don’t you dare to demonstrate how to use ffmpeg. I remember when I used handbrake for the first time and thought “wow, it’s much more convenient than stru…

After not having a Samsung device for many years, I reluctantly bought a fridge from them (price was the decisive factor). Anyway, almost immediate regret, it features an always-on…

Any opinion on why Immich instead of Photoprism? I’m considering to pick one of them for my media library and Immich not being labeled as stable scares me a bit.

I’m also going to return an MX Master 3S (to my employer though). I could only fix its weird scrolling behavior with Logitech’s bloatware, still, for the life of me I couldn’t impr…

Valve has done an amazing job turning Linux gaming a reality, I really admire their efforts. Unfortunately I had to switch back to Windows on my gaming rig due to a Steam bug which…

I think point 3 is completely off. That's not cherry-picking, that's comparing apples to oranges, those generated Makefiles are not meant to be readable, if you want to compare, lo…

The problem wasn’t running the containers with plain podman, they worked. Auto restart is something podman delegates to quaqlet/systemd, I tried to migrate my docker-compose files …

I have a RPi 2 that’s more than enough for my home server needs and I’ve tried to migrate from docker to podman, it simply failed miserably with weird errors, on my laptop everythi…

Spring Boot 3 requiring Java 17 is what allowed the migration in two companies I’ve been, it’s much easier to sell it as security issue than tech debt.

If you ever consider switching to Podman, you’ll be surprised to see how it kinda pushes you back to systemd.

This reminded me the time I bought a brand new HDD only to notice at home it was labelled as “refurbished”, next day I returned it, they guys from the shop didn’t want to admit thi…

When I migrated from Android to iPhone, syncthing was my main pain point. There is Möbius Sync, even though not open source, at least it’s an one-time small payment, which is fair …

Not me, someone else in the company did, I don’t remember why it was dismissed.

I worked at a company where data scientists wrote python code using pandas and we had port it to java and a library called keanu that was very useful but soon became unmaintained. …

Reminds me of that part of Pirates of the Silicon Valley, where the people of the Homebrew Computer Club were trying to find a use for the MITS Altair. Although Quantum Computers a…

In their home page they state: "We make MiniOS beautiful so that you can enjoy using it every day and for any task. We pay great attention to every detail in the operating system",…
