Go's standard library has always been it's strength, especially the crypto package! Lovely stuff.

Don't you reboot servers to get kernel security updates? I usually have unattended upgrades with the option to reboot during the night if necessary

Incus is great. I've been trying to revive an unmaintained ansible collection to manage incus resources https://github.com/sbstp/ansible-collection-incus

I think Kraken has been selected to redistribute the funds, but not sure if it has happened yet. These things take time, I think Mt. Gox took like a decade to be distributed

CGI is a terrible company known for going over budget and under delivering on a ton of projects. Not that many companies bidding on large government contracts unfortunately

This article has very little useful information... There's nothing novel about optimizing queries, sharding and using read replicas.

Assuming they ever manage to turn a profit...

Tried to play dota 2 on Linux, it has a bad memory leak that made the whole system hang after an hour or two. Plus it seems to get worse fps on Vulcan, but I read that it might jus…

Using WebKit (even JavaScriptCore) and working with Apple wouldn't be the worst thing to my eyes as a Firefox/FOSS user. Duopoly isn't great but it's better than a monopoly.

Project 2025 strongly opposes everything good in this world.

RabbitMQ next?

I've been disappointed by Nats. Core Nats is good and works well, but if you need stronger delivery guarantees you need to use Jetstream which has a lot of quirks, for instance it …

yuck.

There seems to be a few typos in the article, unless I don't understand what's going on. In step 1, the register uses the source path 'github-events' but the payload is using 'gith…

Most control planes are not free anymore, they cost like 70$/mo on AWS & GCP. Used to be a while back.

I'm not a TCL user, but from the description of wduquette is sounds similar to Python's zipapp https://docs.python.org/3/library/zipapp.html

Even HTTP/2 seems to have been rushed[1]. Chrome has removed support for server push. Maybe more thought should be put into these protocols instead of just rebranding whatever Goog…

I feel like there's a lot of potential between Go and Cosmopolitan libc. Go itself does not use libc much, as shown in the blog, but some great libraries like SQLite3 need it (unle…

Chip design & manufacturing is probably the closest thing we have to witchcraft as a species.

Maybe -march=native gives it an edge as it compiles for this exact CPU model whereas numpy is compiled for a more generic (older) x86-64. -march=native would probably get v4 on a R…

Envoy is definitely a powerful & useful tool, we use external auth to centralize our authentication, I just dislike editing large yaml documents with 10 levels of indentation.

Caddy is amazingly simple to setup. Automatic HTTPS is a killer feature. I have to use Envoy at work for gRPC services and I want to quit the industry every time I have to edit the…

How does jet compare to sqlboiler? I've been using sqlboiler quite successfully on a work project.

I generate queries like this in a paging library I wrote at work, I did not use the tuple comparison because sometimes the sorting order is different between fields, each field in …

It's a bit weird that bcachefs is in the kernel, from what I understand there's still a lot of work to do on it. Would be nice to see more corporate sponsorship behind it, it's qui…
