More than that, your editor doesn’t run with root permissions, which reduces the risk of accidentally overwriting something you didn’t mean to.
it feels to me, like they’re less looking for new people to start doing this “work”, but more to connect with people who already happen to be enthusiastically going to events and showing off their laptops.
I really think that’s the secret end game behind all the AI stuff in both Windows and MacOS. MS account required to use it. (anyone know if you need to be signed in to apple ID for apple ai?) “on device” inference that sometimes will reach out to the cloud. when it feels like it. maybe sometimes the cloud will reach out to you and ask your cpu to help out with training.
that, and better local content analysis. “no we aren’t sending everything the microphone picks up to our servers, of course not. just the transcript that your local stt model made of it, you won’t even notice the bandwidth!)”
Are you using PersistentVolumes? If your storage class supports it, looks like there’s a volume snapshot concept you can use, have you looked into that?
Not sure what you’re doing, but if we’re talking about a bog standard service backed by a db, I don’t think having automated reverts of that data is the best idea. you might lose something! That said, triggering a snapshot of your db as a step before deployment is a pretty reasonable idea.
Reverting a service back to a previous version should be straightforward enough, and any dedicated ci/cd tool should have an API to get you information from the last successful deploy, whether that is the actual artifact you’re deploying, or a reference to a registry.
As you’re probably entirely unsurprised by, there are a ton of ways to skin this cat. you might consider investing in preventative measures, testing your data migration in a lower environment, splitting out db change commits from service logic commits, doing some sort of blue/green or canary deployment.
I get fairly nerd-sniped when it comes to build pipelines so happy to talk more concretely if you’d like to provide some more details!
I use these two vim plugins for the same functionality without leaving $EDITOR:
I’ve also started dabbling with using fzf in scripts for the team to use. Don’t sleep on the --query
and --select-1
flags!
is that more or less cursed than cat image.img > /dev/whatever
?
dd if=image.img of=/dev/disk/flashdrive
is usually all you need
Definitely not what you’re talking about, but still: https://www.destroyallsoftware.com/talks/a-whole-new-world
The two factors at an ATM are possession of your bank card + knowledge of your pin. (it also takes your photo, for good measure)
GitHub will happily accept a smart card or whatever, if an extra plastic rectangle jives with you more than an OTP generator.
Your two factors shift to possession of your password vault + knowledge of the password to it. You’re okay IMO.
You also still get the anti-replay benefits of the OTPs, though that might be a bit moot with TLS everywhere.
just to give you the term to search for, these types of applications are called snippet managers. for example, https://snibox.github.io/
there’s a ton of them around. I don’t have a particular one that I recommend, since it’s not something I use in my workflow.
The value proposition of old or used android phones as SBCs is insane! You’ve probably got some in your drawers, or can at worst buy some carrier locked ones for 30$. You get a device with better compute than a raspberry pi, with a screen, cameras, speakers, flashlight and battery attached!
Personally, I use them to run and monitor my 3d printers.
I didn’t like the random blinking and glitchiness the screen did as it changed resolutions. Most OSes, if you notice, do a little fade out and in but I was too lazy to make it gradual.
I have a stupid little script for this:
#!/bin/sh
setres() {
output=$1
width=$2
height=$3
xrandr --output $output --brightness 0 --auto
xrandr --delmode $output better
xrandr --rmmode better
xrandr --newmode better $(cvt $width $height | tail -n1 | cut -d'"' -f3)
xrandr --addmode $output better
xrandr --output $output --brightness 1 --mode better
}
setres "$@"
I’ve been very happy with roku tvs at home and a roku stick “to-go”. Very simple interface with minimal ads that you can block.
It might be an attention thing. With an emoji in a post your eyes are drawn towards the cute colorful picture before you l’ve read the content of the post. Emoticons on the other hand don’t stand out as much, but serve a similar purpose: punctuate a thought with an emotion (=
doesn’t matter much, when your password manager is doing the entering
