News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

Integrate that with kubernetes and I'm sold.
Hacking all those things together feels empowering, like a complex construct that can be built from simple things we are already used to. This article has a very "hacky" spirit, love it!
Why not have both? A single server/service AND easy-to-install modules providing atomic functionality? Just make the install/uninstall process easy (like just downloading and optionally unpacking a modules archive into installed_modules Dir)?
On the contrary, I didn't find Syncthing setup very easy, as I don't want to be dependent on external resources when doing a sync over LAN and thus I had to setup a coordinator myself and it's a bit confusing with all these long tokens that I needed for some reason.

Better resources utilization definitely sounds like cargo cult, riiight.
Re:Testcontainers on Tuesday February 27, 2024 @08:30PM (#39532749)
Because we are a big company and would like to utilize resources better.

We also want homogeneity in tech when possible (we already heavily use kubernetes, we don't want to keep docker hosts anymore).

Teams of testers need to be accounted in terms of resource quotas and RBAC.

What exactly do you see as an overkill in wanting to run short-lived containers in kubernetes rather than in docker (if we already have kubernetes and "cook" it ourselves)?

Re:Testcontainers on Tuesday February 27, 2024 @07:45PM (#39532419)
Testcontainers aren't even compatible with kubernetes, that's a tool from the past.
Another one? Why?
...cough, htop, cough...

I hate the animations like the one in the description for being too fast to comprehend.

Looks like just a fzf that is able to traverse across branches, but it is not obvious which branch the selected file is in until you switch to it.

Thanks for sharing your tool!

I think it would be best to illustrate the readme with a problem it tries to solve: currently I don't understand why a simple set of INSERT operations wouldn't suffice.

Also, the phrase "ingest data into Postgres" sounds wrong: it would be postgres, not your tool that would ingest data (if it could), your tool should be described as the one "putting data into Postgres". And thus you probably have named your tool wrong...

Re:VirtualBox KVM Public Release on Thursday February 08, 2024 @09:10AM (#39302092)
Which namespace are you taking about? cgroups_namespaces(7)?
It is not obvious what the result of this would be. What hostname will it have? How will the disk be partitioned? What packages will be installed? What timezone will be set? What keyboard layout will be set? And so on.

No pain at all.
This snitch is proprietary crapware. Instead, use OpenSnitch when on Linux and LuLu Firewall when on Mac.

How to do that?

Problem with learning from AI is that you don't know if it's telling you b/s or not.

Re:Unlimited Kagi searches for $10 per month on Friday September 22, 2023 @04:05AM (#37609252)
That's curious, please expand on this. Do you really mean it performed a search for different thing? If so - have you figured how it differed?

Or did it just have to perform a non-cached search and thus not only excluded said domains, but could also reorder the other results based on the current relevance, rather than cached relevance from the past that is being served to everyone else who doesn't exclude said domains?

And time too, unfortunately.
I would quit rather than visit office more than a few times a month.
The site is not opening. Thanks, CloudFlare.
That's impossible to google.
Re:PostgreSQL Lock Conflicts on Wednesday August 23, 2023 @05:36AM (#37233667)
That's weird to refer to a site as a tool. A 'service' - that I'd understand, but a tool? It looks like there is actually all this information is also available as a (probably CLI?) tool.
Re:Google is already pushing WEI (web DRM) into Chromium on Wednesday July 26, 2023 @08:58AM (#36876897)
No way. Mozilla can go to hell.
A lot of people remember how uncircumcised was Firefox before Mozilla decided to drop XUL.
Because there are no better alternatives. I don't like Google (and never did), but I HATE Mozilla for betraying all the good it once stood for.

I hope they go broke, but they already aren't relevant anymore.
