Yeah I suppose the laws currently being passed in dozens of states across the country are actually fully in support of LGBTQ+ communities and aren't in fact discrimination.
Agreed, this is one of the biggest issues I see. Anywhere you install a custom controller essentially has access to ~all of your resources. What could go wrong?
I'm not sure what you mean by too many things ended up as custom resources -- it's the recommended extension point and you can do a lot with them that you can't do with core types. Custom resources had/have some growing…
It might be worth reading Susan Fowler's rather notable reflection on her time at Uber if you think discrimination is only subtle or at the edges
If you're using a tag like centos:8 that gets updated periodically, you already do not have reproducible builds. This just ensures you get updated packages as soon as possible
Remember there are multiple supreme court cases just this year about trans people's right to both be trans and employed. That's part of what is meant by "existence being political".
That depends on if your existence is political I suppose. Ask some of your LGBT colleagues, especially trans colleagues, if they feel like can just leave politics at the door.
There's a lot of hurdles involved with actually using the service -- many movies are explicitly unavailable, eligible screenings of available movies are very limited (only two showings per movie for the entire day this…
As other people mentioned, it seems more likely that they're running a Xen fork or have some other mitigation. The redhat notes state that once the host is patched, the VMs need to be shut down for it to take effect:…

For what it's worth I've really enjoyed some of your output during that time though, I was actually listening to one of the o pioneers pink couch recording earlier today. Sorry to hear it burned you out though, I can…
I didn't mean to come across as totally dismissive, more that it was something I was unaware of and was sad I couldn't find more detail about. Good looking with the link though. I'm reading through that section now but…

I like the theory of it integrating with the thermostat's auto away feature, so it can detect you even if you're not in the same room as the tstat for a while. It needs to be connected to mains for it to work in real…

And TWC upgraded most of the city while keeping prices the same (for now at least, since at least on my bill they credit the difference in plan prices). They started the same process in San Antonio around the same time…
Rackspace recently rolled out 'cloud' dedicated servers that are designed for this use case. You just pay for the time that you have the server, so for workloads like you described I think it's worth checking out. See…

There's some justification for them using the 100k number. They bring up that child tax credits and health care subsidies are phased out around that point, as are IRA contributions.
That was my experience too, though I think my enthusiasm for #3 was the main driver of the others. I found I really enjoyed lifting, and was much more successful when I was sleeping and eating well, so it became a…
