> I don't even have a pricing page, i try to see how much i get can from each client, from $5/mo to $100/mo That seems ethical. Vibes based fees.

I too like running the same kernel for months on end. Just kidding, I restart periodically, especially when there's a kernel patch. To those who worship uptime, how many kmods do y…

I'm still rocking my nvidia 2060, which I had purchased for $400 at the time. I struggle to imagine purchasing multiple 1k+ cards on my own dime.

I'm a bit surprised that this kind of incredibly engineered hyperconverged rack system isn't doing some form of liquid cooling.

Not only that, but do you really want to be handling the contract negotiations, sales, business taxes, insurance, and everything else? Being a sole-proprietorship means doing thing…

The referenced gap is the supposed numeracy of developers 5 years ago and developers today, whether they be junior or senior developers. There is a strong downward trend toward dec…

For an MDM managed computer (JAMF I know for sure), it can be configured that way per a company policy. I am not 100% sure of the answer for a computer not managed by JAMF as I hav…

You just don't have to think about it too hard: jjplace/jjhub/codetown, whatever. Doesn't matter. Names don't matter that much for brands. Names just have to be simple enough to re…

And, interestingly for Oxide, rack scale solutions from HW vendors might not be suited for your company's workload. Their solution isn't all-in on AI, from what I understand.

You mean you don't have that issue anymore? I'm jealous.

Agreed. Its more reminiscent of Cloudstack or Openstack from what I gather. I'm thinking of Jetstream2, but for you buy it rather than rent some of it with an NSF budget.

> ... as a synonym for "incident report" People should stop using it as a synonym, then. The Latin effectively means "after death", meaning its a poor synonym for "what happened wr…

> If the estimator falsely declares someone an adult, is Discord legally liable? Not until a court case on the topic gives us precedent.

I found myself really frustrated trying to use MacOS at work, because I'm a heavy user of virtual desktops. Turns out, I couldn't find a way to disable animations to switch between…

> Do they still do that? Yes. I know its more than firefox, but I don't have the full list. On 24.04: me@comp:~$ apt info firefox | head -n 5 WARNING: apt does not have a stable CL…

Why would you want to make a podcast then? You don't need to offer a sub-optimal product if you don't want to make it.

That's good to hear. The intolerance to non-guix (or, possibly, my perception that it was intolerance) made me shy away from the project. This was especially so because I use repai…

> At some point, is open sourcing your work a liability? I argue that open sourcing your work is no more liable than making a comment on social media. The biggest risk to an open s…

I'm having trouble with this one due to a lack of experience, but if there is no consensus between the two parties, my assumption would be that you trust neither and ask again. Why…

> Virtual machines are treated as a security boundary despite the fact that with enough R&D they are not. Hosting minecraft servers in virtual machines is fine, but not a great ide…

Its not impossible that someday a new non-chromium browser reaches feature parity (or close enough) with the chromium browsers. At that point, Google could stop worrying about fund…

Backwards compatibility has always been a Microsoft staple. What used to be a huge selling point - depending on the audience - is now clearly a crutch. Right now, it seems that the…

Because you can't sell a better browser to LLM companies. That's their current business model.

I agree with you. I believe it speaks to the power of social proof as well as the time pressures most developers find themselves with. In non-coding social circles, social proof is…
