I would be inclined to think that if you are just renting a machine or VM and all the configuration/maintenance is your problem it would be close enough. But I am not a mod and don’t want to be.

My understanding is that Scrum is a tool box. You figure out what tools fit for your team. The problem arises when people are in charge that don’t understand the what the team is doing or the toolset provided by Scrum. They then try to use every tool and it goes poorly.

If I read it correctly, he used a LLM to help him write Python for a hobby project. I think this falls into an open minded, “who cares?”. Come back when he used it for something intended for public or commercial use.

My friend just upgraded from a GTX 1070 to an ARC B580. His motherboard was pretty old so getting bios updated with resizeable bar was some work. He also chose reinstall with Ubuntu because it was the version of Linux that was listed as officially supported. After that he has been happy with the performance increase he has gotten.

I have a Pfsense router and run HAproxy on it. Most of the services I have run on 3 VMs in a Docker Swarm. HAproxy can point to all three and just uses the first to respond. I think this is what you are going for. I haven’t tested how robust this solution is because my primary motivation was wanting to play with Docker Swarm once I accepted K8s was not worth the effort.

They make me think of colored clay.

Hollow Knight is great. I chill out with Vampire Survivors a lot.

Maybe talk to a couple of people you have an established relationship with that you trust. Explain the behavior in yourself that you want to change and establish a sign they can give when they think you are doing that behavior. Something simple like just holding up a hand in an indication of “stop” as one idea. The goal being that this will help you be aware of when you act this way and you can reflect on why you are doing it in that moment.

This whole idea is based on the premise that things you are aware of you can influence/control. If this doesn’t feel like the right path for you, no worries.

I am no expert, so grains of salt and such. But my assumption is that it’s a marketing expense. They get a lot of people familiar with cloud flare services and some of them later need a professional level solution. So people use what they are already familiar with. This is the same reason why tech companies provide hardware/software to schools for cheap/free.

I think of it like a flash light. Normal people have the beam spread out, they can see more but with less with focus on any one thing. We have the beam real narrow so we can see one thing really well, but that is it. Also the flashlight is held by a phantom hand we don’t always control.

I wonder if there is potential value in yeast for mass production and delivery of vaccines? I could see a small drink of anti-viral like you can get probiotic drinks today. The beer seems a gimmick, but maybe the yeast could have value.

That is just the argument of free will vs bundle of chemical reactions and genetic instructions.

Funny how tools are useful. But a person who is a tool is not.

It will be controlled by Truenas not Proxmox. Truenas can add swap space to each drive automatically: https://www.ixsystems.com/documentation/truenas/11.3-U2.2/storage.html

But you probably already have existing drives so that doesn’t help. This might though: https://wiki.debian.org/Swap

But be aware that Truenas is design to be an appliance and doesn’t really want you tinkering under the hood. So you may have to manually add the SWAP after each boot of TN.

I would guess the best long term fix would be moving services out of the TN VM and into a different VM.

Maybe start by taking an existing script you wrote in another language and hand rewrite it in C? Then you can focus on understanding how things are done differently in C.

I have TN Scale VM hosted in Proxmox. The only “issue” I have is the webgui gets pushed to SWAP if not used for more than a week. So when I connect it it literally takes a couple minutes while is gets shuffled back into RAM. Once it’s “warmed up” it’s fine. But my Scale VM is doing these things: manage ZFS pools, control NFS/Samba shares, replicate pool snapshots to off-site backup server. It intentionally have it do nothing else. All other services are in different VMs or LXC containers in Proxmox.

Does your Scale install have any SWAP space setup? That should prevent out of memory issues. Potential performance issues would be better than crashing.

Are you trying to say, “Don’t buy a Xbox controller then flash it”? I can understand the decision to not do business with MS, but I assume most people already possess that controller and are trying make use of what they have.

This is not a critique, I just don’t understand what you are intending to communicate.

The real danger is that he has the charm that it would consensual every time too.

Thanks! I actually managed 4-5 hours of sleep with minimal coughing last night. Things are trending the right direction.

I remember watching a video where they talked about the changes. Apparently most of the language people are really upset about applies specificly to their website and forums. I can’t find the video, probably because I am sick and have barely slept in the last 4 days. I miss sleep … and not coughing.

Edit: changed “can” to “can’t”
