PocketBook is by far the most hackable, especially their b/w readers, which still run Linux 3.10 because of hardware limitations - for these, getting root permissions is trivial with an old jailbreak script based on…
IMO the actual difference between introverts and extroverts is that the latter use @here and @channel a lot more frequently
...or Korg NTS-1 (or even both together), which is not as modular but fun and hackable in its own way
For some Mini PCs there are fanless cases, e.g. from Akasa: https://akasa.co.uk/update.php?tpl=list%2FCHASSIS+POWER.tpl&... I've got one of those, and it houses a system with 8 CPU cores, 32 GB RAM (can be upgraded to…
This is even handier: https://github.com/NikolayS/postgres_dba
The community can agree to always call it "Redpanda Connect™ (former Benthos)"
Don't you ever get inspired by reading good books? You can learn new tricks and apply them elsewhere, and it's much easier than actually contributing to a big open-source project.
If this were indeed the average attitude, there wouldn't be this big of an outcry with regards to the move from fully open-source to source-available licenses (Mongo/ELK/Hashicorp/etc.)
FWIW I had decent success with Xpra on Linux, and it's still being actively developed, e.g. the HTML5 client is considered stable now: https://github.com/Xpra-org/xpra/
"Large teams" is the key, there has to be enough services and/or language diversity to justify the extra complexity.
To set up an open-source service mesh, the infra team anyway has to configure a private certificate authority and cert-manager to create k8s secrets for the service mesh components. From there, it's straightforward to…
Reminds me of a Russian joke. A secretary applies for a job; the interviewer asks her: "In your CV you claim that you can type 1000 characters per minute - for real?!" "Yes!", she replies, then adds in a low voice: "but…
Arrow format is not intended for storage, it's for in-memory data exchange between different libraries and languages.
Glad to see usability improvements here, but I won't be using it until there's a light theme (asking an application to respect the OS theme is apparently too much these days).
You could buy a USB enclosure for an M.2 NVMe SSD - a bit bulkier but still portable and addresses your concerns.
This article was written in 2015, a year before idle_in_transaction_session_timeout parameter was added (in Postgres 9.6) - which is unfortunately still disabled by default, but that's the easiest way to make sure no…
Yes, you absolutely need to set a reasonable idle transaction timeout to avoid a disaster (bugs in the code happen) - this can also be done globally in the database settings.
Better yet, oauth2-proxy in case of an organization: only admins need to know the secrets, every user simply uses SSO to get access.
We ran into a similar issue once, and addressed it by changing the sorting column from id to created_at which has the same ordering but doesn't have an index on it. Good to know Postgres optimizer can be tricked even…
Our industry is so disorganized that after half a century 'Software Engineer' is still not a recognized profession, and there is just as little interest in unionizing. I lack the audacity to make sweeping judgments…
Who are these 'we'? It's all up to personal preference in the end. As Github demonstrates by postponing SPA framework adoption, there are enough companies out there that share your desire to keep things simple.
What you describe is solved with GraphQL, which is a very mature technology by now.
You can shift your focus to mentoring your teammates and presenting at developer meetups / conferences. Simply tell your manager that you are greatly concerned about the bus factor (cite the 71% figure), and hopefully…
Check out "Hobo: Tough Life", it's at the extreme end of the spectrum, where you have to beg and steal in the beginning.
Why give your money to a manufacturer who explicitly wants you to run MacOS on their hardware, and not to its Linux-friendlier competitors?
