One of the effects of communicating this way is that people who are not operating in good faith will tend to quickly out themselves, and often getting them to do that is enough.
I was reading up on head-carrying the other day. Here's some fantastic articles on the topic, and especially about the use of "tumplines" (strap on top of head with ropes that go around the thing being carried)
I started training with one and a 33lb bundle of firewood the other day, and my back and neck haven't felt this good in a long time. I'm going to continue increasing weight, and might also try carrying things directly on top of my head without the tumpline.
In response to the surge in RAM and NVME costs, and no foreseeable improvement with them, Hetzner increased the setup price on its dedicated servers. Some servers have gone from €39 to 269.
They say further increases may be coming, including to ongoing subscription costs.
Strongly agree, and it's always getting better. The maintainer is a hero, and there's a few other regular contributors who do great work. They're always super responsive to feedback
Because jj is vastly simpler and more powerful than git, while being compatible with git (so you can keep using Github etc). There's tons of articles and videos on the topic, and many other posts here on HN about it
Check out jjui in particular. Makes it even easier
The science around what fats are good or bad is so confusing I don't think we can say much about them with certainly, except that trans fats are probably bad. I lean towards "eat whole foods", but those can include anything from beef and coconut which are full of saturated fats, to fish and nuts which are full of polyunsaturated fats.
Limiting animal fats (which are mostly saturated fats) has a very noticeable and measurable effect on how I'm feeling and doing overall. Primarily using olive/avocado oil and nuts/seeds as my fat sources significantly improved my energy levels, mental clarity, sleep, and stress/HRV (as measured by my Garmin watch). I've noticed this so many times that I don't think this is a placebo. I haven't checked any specific blood markers that might be affected by dietary fats though.
Saturated fats _are_ essential for humans but you should be getting enough of them from non-animal sources.
I think that depends on the individual, or maybe on the dose. Years ago I read a bunch of books arguing for saturated fat, started eating a lot of it, and my cholesterol and triglycerides got horrifically bad. Even those books, which claimed high cholesterol is no big deal, were like "but if it goes over X then you need to fix that," and I was over X. I had high particle numbers too, which the books agreed was pretty bad. I went back to my normal diet and that took me back to my normal bloodwork.
My understanding is that the very few studies that showed positive impact of "adding" saturated fat turned out to be a replacement issue. They replaced junk (candy, refined carbs) with sat fat. Replacing with MUFA and PUFA showed a much greater effect.
I think jetstream storage is about to get s3 api support https://github.com/nats-io/nats-server/discussions/5486 . also you can use bento connector to connect it to any pipeline you could possibly want. It is easy to manage and works great
I've used Redpanda for local development and testing stands. It is super easy to setup in docker, starts really fast and consumes less resources than Java version. Haven't really compared it to anything, but I remember using Java version of Kafka before and it was a resource hog. It is important when you develop on laptop with constrained resources.
to be fair, Kafka now has a GraalVM docker image[0][1] which was made for local dev/testing, and it has caught up fairly well to these alternatives re: memory and startup time
