There's a very fine line between Just In Time and Just Too Late.
We advocate for Just In Case inventory, which is much more resilient.

When the end user asks a question, is it sent to OpenAI?
Or is this an LLM you built yourself?
Re:Julia 1.9 Highlights

We run Julia code in production. These are compute-heavy services called by other parts of the app.
Version upgrades are normally easy. Upgrade, run the unit tests, build the Docker images and deploy to K8s.
Maybe we've been lucky, but since 1.3 we've never had big issues with version upgrades.

We use Rails's built-in i18n. So this should work, as we could just send in the translated strings.

Because when the browser un-gzips it, it takes a lot more memory than the minified version. And everyone seems to complain about browser bloat.

I recently upgraded my Note 2 to a Note 4. One of the first things it asks when you first switch on the phone, is to log into your Google Account.
After that it asked a couple more questions. By the time the install wizard was done, most of my phone had been restored:
Apps
Contacts (including favourites)
Emails (they live in the cloud)
Photos
Music
Even things like WiFi passwords, preferred hotspots, etc.
I don't even think about backing up and restoring my Android device. It all just works.

I have a bunch of servers on Ubuntu 12.04LTS. Did the test. Came back as vulnerable. Then did an apt-get upgrade, which upgraded a bunch of SSL services. Did the test again. Still vulnerable.
What else should I do?

Re:Show HN: A Dashboard for External Monitors

Four screens for me. The left two 24" screens are connected to a Linux Mint box. That far left has a browser with developer tools. The next one has a full-screen vim session.
The right two are connected to a MBP. The left 24" has terminals (ssh'ed into the linux box) for Rails console, MySql and Rails log running in real time. The laptop's built-in screen is the far right, with everything from Assembla to email to Skype, etc.
Here's a typical screen-shot of how I work: http://i.imgur.com/UVOfAan.jpg
As others have said, I can also do with more screens. At the moment both the Linux box and the Mac has 3-4 virtual desktops each.
