    After years of trialling a variety of notebook setups, I eventually fell back to vscode & git. I've even given up on Markdown (nothing wrong with it, I just realised I never actual…

    On that point, I don't think most adults understand the ramifications either!

    Very similar experience. My instinct would be to fight the sickness and push through, but in reality you need to stop immediately and try again in a few hours. Your tolerance tends…

    Hmm perhaps you are right.. There's no context on the page about what ">128k" means so possibly a bad assumption on my part!

    Not a US citizen so forgive me - but does the IRS not auto file tax returns for "regular" incomes - those managed fully by your employer? In my country, it's automatically done for…

    We're experiencing a lot of performance issues with Istio in larger clusters of 4-5k pods and several k services, where high churn rates causes the control plane to go ballistic. K…
