I connect my primary and backup servers on 10G directly via a crossover cable for transferring ZFS snapshots. No actual 10G switches or anything at the moment but if I add any more servers I need to back up I’ll probably get a small 10G switch to put in between.

Wide-spread adoption of passkeys can’t come soon enough.

I’d much rather praise them when they do something well, but this is so hard to spot when just reading over committed code. All the obstacles they cleared are not visible in there.

This is SO true and exactly why code reviews always feel like a beat down (even when they’re not). There’s no visibility into the truly good work that’s already been done.

On Google Fi the watch data “piggy backs” on the phone’s data. You still need a phone + phone plan.

Everything old is new again.

That’s because that’s exactly what they are.

No, no, the real problem is video games… and Dungeons & Dragons… and the mall of course… and comic books… and…

ARM is RISC (or at least a version of it).

“all your vscode extensions still work fine” is definitely not true. Sure a vast majority of them probably do, but certainly not all of them.

I still prefer it over full VS Code though.

Companies having a geographic monopoly over access to the internet doesn’t change the fact that the Internet as a whole is decentralized.

I understand what you’re saying but it feels wrong to lump Cloudflare in with Google and Amazon. Clouflare, thus far anyway, has been mostly a force of good for the internet.

The internet IS decentralized.

Think of the up vote button more as a “this information is worth spreading” button than “I like or agree with this content”.

I clicked through to the article but don’t see a video (or a link to any video). Am I blind?

If we always assumed the worst no one would buy/accomplish anything. This is not a realistic way to live. The best we can expect to do is making the best decision with the information we have at hand at the time. Of course a healthy dose of scepticism isn’t a bad thing either as long as it doesn’t get in the way of living a relatively normal life.

Thank you. This needs to be further up in the comments

So this value should only be used as a horizontal comparison metric (i.e. one car to another) and a rough estimate of overall range, just like listed MPG has always been.

I think the prevalence of mesh systems is intended to remedy this. Instead of a single AP that can cover your entire house you can mesh two or three (or more) APs to get the coverage desired.
