Yeah this isn’t even human readable even when it’s in YAML. What am I going to do? Read the floats and understand that the person looked left?

The point seems to be able to handle a UPS failure

WiFi is on all three bands. It’s not so much what’s newer vs older. Newer devices tend to support 2.4, 5, and 6 and switch between them based on quality of signal and support by the WiFi network. Higher frequencies like 5 and 6GHz are generally better because there’s less interference.

Cheaper devices tend to only support 2.4GHz

Fascinating. Just based on your comment and nothing else, sounds like it could be something like a CPU Enclave like Intel SGX. Basically a remote client can validate that an application runs in a secure part of a remote cloud computer. The stated goal of SGX is that you only have to trust Intel and if you trust Intel and say run program X in the enclave, then only that part of the CPU can access the data, not the applications running in the non-secure enclave.

Now that brushes over some things like you still need to trust the client and IIRC in a WhatsApp situation, you don’t really know what enclave does, but the communications between the enclave and the host OS are heavily restricted. LLMs also require lots of CPU and are usually run on GPUs, so not sure how that works yet.

I think #1 is suggesting to move the neutral over to another hot phase and change the outlet to a 240v nema 6/three prong (I think) with two hots and a ground instead of the 4 prong.

The 240v at the same amps gives you higher watts so faster charging without an expensive new conductor. I’m

Maybe that’s intentional to keep you from wanting to stay there a long time and negotiate.

Most users don’t care, as long as they’re getting free stuff

Sad, but very true in my experience. I find even my friends who work in software engineering and have exposure to the bad sides of what technology can do, just don’t take any efforts to change. They addicted to Instagram, to Amazon, and everything else.

YT ads can be relevant to you based on data collected about you

They certainly can be but if there are 2 advertisers and one is the most relevant and the other pays them more money, which one do you think Google is going to show you?

The one that pays more because it’s an auction, but an advertiser that pays more for a less relevant ad to a user won’t be making as much money so there is an incentive to be more relevant.

Sounds a lot like getting used to time zones. Just get used to it being 3pm there when it’s 6pm here

It makes some things hard and some things easier. For example, you can more easily defend against DoS attacks because there’s just more targets.

But decentralized makes it easier for bot manipulation because you can hide your actions across multiple users on different instances and those instances can’t easily identify bot signatures like IP addresses to ban many accounts.

Google is doing this because they have incentives to do so. They want to block malicious actors like attack their platforms.

Other companies want to lock down their own apps because they don’t think users should be permitted to do anything other than use their apps exactly as they want.

I don’t like it as a user, but I also see the reason why companies want this by being on the security side of software.

This is the future of the Big Tech Internet if we’re not careful. Attestation to be able to use communications and other websites.

bash doesn’t have a main function either and no one is fucking complaining.

I don’t complain about Bash’s lack of features because I choose not to write Bash scripts and instead use saner languages.

I used to work in Amazon (left after 10 years because it wore me down), but it wasn’t that compartmentalized.

I’m sure there were some teams that were like that but I could easily find another team, open a ticket, get a response and see their on calls investigate the issue. It was often times possible to look at their service metrics and source code to see if I could find the problem myself.

Support just can’t share that info because they don’t know what is considered a trade secret or internal detail vs what is public.

No, it’s electrical code. Standard outlets can’t be used to supply power because it means you have a plug that has exposed wires commonly called suicide wires. While these balconey top solar likely use grid following so it has to detect a grid voltage, the electrical code doesn’t consider it AFAIK. This rule is for safety and because it would only power half your house because there’s only one leg per 110 outlet.

It means let’s take a closer look at a problem or project. Sounds like a Microsoftism

Different Operating Systems call it different things. Windows calls it Alternate. Even if it was only used when the primary was down, DNS doesn’t provide any sort of guidance or standard on when to switch between primary and secondary. Is one query timeout enough to switch? How often do you reattempt to the first DNS server? When do you switch back? With individual queries, you can timeout and hit another NS server, but that’s a lot easier at an individual level than to infer a global system state from one query timing out.

And what do you set that secondary DNS entry to? Operating systems may use both, so you need the secondary to point to a pi hole or else you’re letting ads through randomly.

Its not difficult for technical people like you or me, but my friend who just wants to watch their favorite show on my Plex on their TV won’t know how to traffic engineer the traffic over a Tailscale network to my network. My mom won’t be installing Tailscale on her laptop and phone.

With Plex, you’re getting the easy ability to grant access to users. You get a single pane that can search across multiple Plex instances, and NAT traversal/port forwarding. Jellyfin makes you figure that out yourself.
