Re:K3sup – bootstrap K3s over SSH in < 60s on Monday May 04, 2026 @02:49AM (#48005445)

The last commit was four years ago.

Twitter most likely hasn't been able to retain the "right" people.
Re:The way out of burnout (2016) on Sunday August 06, 2023 @12:00PM (#37023304)

One major acquisition that is missing from your list was the aquisition of Postbank in 2018.

Re:Docker is sunsetting Free Team organizations [pdf] on Tuesday March 14, 2023 @02:14PM (#35155992)

> To use organization features, convert your account from a User to an Organization.

> You can't undo this action.

Guaranteed ordering per partition while keeping the ability to scale across partitions.
Re:RabbitMQ Streams Overview on Wednesday July 14, 2021 @05:06AM (#27831064)
After a brief glimpse at the documentation, I am missing a feature comparable to Kafka's partitioning. Well, the protocol [1] briefly mentions it, but it does not seem to be exposed.

Getting insights into the roadmap for this would certainly be interesting...
