Longer than that - in 2005 I was at a network hardware startup and we had vendor-locked (ahem, _qualified_) SFPs back then. Probably started back in 2001 when they were introduced.…

As i understand it, the sound for audience in the venue and monitors for artists was run locally by separate mixer. The audio backhauled to HQ was for the live broadcast.

Things have probably changed since I last talked to my friends at a large state radio/tv broadcaster, but for long haul they used either MADI over fibre, or AES50 into boxes from N…

It's happening to us on the reg with m6i SKUs in us-west-1 the last couple months.

I agree that it's 100% justified in both cases and that Cruise definitely needs to fix their shit.

Correct, the supply hoses don't like bending much.

Firefighters practically salivate at the possibility of smashing the windows of a car parked in front of a hydrant they need to access for supply. This isn't much different.

Just on amd64 right now, we want to move to add support for arm64. Sadly we adopted CircleCI early on and make heavy use of their support for multiple containers - if you specify a…

I can and it would require porting my entire CI workflow to machine. We use a lot of docker-executor specific stuff, and if I'm going to spend the time to port several thousand lin…

Still no support for arm64 docker executors after years of asking for it.

After finishing Severance, I went looking for a keycap set mimicing the Data General Dasher keyboard that the series based their terminals on. Thankfully there's an MT3 version of …

Was that ever released for film use? I don't recall seeing any prints referring to ProLogic or ProLogic II during my time as a student film projectionist. If so, it was highly back…

Depending on your projector and the amount of space you can fit one or two digital heads in there. We modded our 1950's era Bauer U2's to add DTS readers upstream of the analog sou…

Dolby SR, the 2-channel analog format on the film, isn't 5.1. It's 4.0 with Left, Center, Right front channels and Mono surround.

Have they gotten faster at applying updates? it would take something like 45 minutes to an hour to make any changes back in 2014, when Fastly was doing sub-minute updates for any C…

Maybe with this IPO they can finally start reviewing terraform PRs again

On use case I'v seen is live concerts that record the show and sell the show you just saw to you on a USB stick at the merch table on your way out the door.

nb: Decomposition happens at 170 degrees Celsius - around 340 degrees Fahrenheit. A fair bit warmer than a hot car usually gets.

I'd recommend some sort of headset over the internal mic and speakers, otherwise you end up fighting the echo cancelling when you're trying to get a word into a conversation or int…

The URL and (2002) make it seem like it hasn't be updated since, but the latest commit to it is from october. These macros, along with the list/queue macros in queue.h are super us…

If you’re a farmer, plenty, as the components for one compound are diesel fuel and fertilizer, both of which are part of “running a farm”

Her track "Black Horse & The Cherry Tree" live showcases it a lot better - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vp0Pt-VFe_g

At a previous job I was at 2007-2014, we were doing classified ads[1] we had a lot of logic in stored procedures in our Postgres database written in pl/pgsql. It made sense at the …

Even then i'm not sure Broadcom would give you that. They're very aware that they're your only source for $chip and will treat you accordingly. (A few employers ago, they were the …
