Thanks. I remember one of these had people being excited about it and I felt bad that I couldn’t try it. But Linux is hard and we are all so grumpy. I get it.

Is that the Mac only one?
Windows -> RedHat -> Windows -> Gentoo -> Ubuntu -> RHEL -> Ubuntu -> Debian -> Arch
I hate the smell of some ground coffee. Others smell good.
The point of the license combination they use is to allow the enterprise version to be open and live in the same repo as everything else. Dunno if that’s what they do, but that’s why the elastic license exists.
The only surefire way is to read it all. And understand it all. That ain’t happening though. So you decide how much to do.
You should figure out how many people are landing patches and get a rough sense of why. Same for folks filing issues or talking about the project in general. Maybe you trust one of the contributors for some reason. Either way, you want to know how alive the project is.
You could land a patch.
You could spot check parts of the code.
You could run vulnerability scanners on it.
I dunno. It’s hard.
I’m not sure I’d attach any meaning to real names online. There’s a whole group of us whose online names are just things they thought were neat when they were 12. And they’ve just stuck forever. There’s lot of reasons.
But otherwise, yeah. I’ll spend ten minutes looking up someone’s online profile. Mostly for GitHub if I can find it. If someone’s commenting on public prs and seems nice that’s a big signal.
I agree. Light touch until you have a bunch of changes landed.
I was a professional open source contributor for a while. Still have the same job, but the license changed. Culture still quite similar though.
I review a ton of code and have a bunch reviewed in turn. I don’t remember that last time I’ve had this come up. Either direction really. I guess I’m lucky. We just split naturally in similar places.
I think it’s a bad analogy because it’ll distract some people.
I believe they were referring to this: https://youtu.be/9eyFDBPk4Yw?si=sb_v_EPhTM9C6bZZ
I imagine a delta encoding scheme similar to what the time series DBs use would work well for the geo points. Maybe even a delta-of-delta encoding for things like ships which move very consistently.
It’s probably not worth it given how small they’ve already go their data. But it is fun.
I don’t believe Prometheus supports geospatial data. Two minutes of googling though, so I could be wrong.
It’s not just Google. If you enjoy that sort of thing there are industries where it’s more important. Not every day. Not every team. And you’d have support like you say.
But you can go a lifetime without using it beyond rules of thumb.
I had this silly thing kicking around in me head forever. I’v always had a generally positive view of Gore and now is the time to square that circle. Thanks for your comment. It made me read more. The guy was on Futurama. He deserves that.
Apparently he pushed for money for bringing more mass adoption of the Internet. It looks like as a senator he recognized the value of the Internet before stuff like gopher existed. Presumably because of papers from the NSF. So he was important.
In some question on the news he flubbed words and said something like, “I took the initiative in developing the Internet.” That’s not a lie so far as I can tell, but boy does it sound like bullshit. It’s super close to “I invented the Internet”.
I got all this from one source so maybe it’s bullshit, but hey: https://firstmonday.org/ojs/index.php/fm/article/view/799/708
Saw it twenty five years ago. Never again.
I was never a fan either. Doki Doki Literature Club was good though.
I like this video with it.
That’s why I hate Ferris wheels. Every time.
I really thought the idea was, “You like mecha? You like kids piloting mecha? This is how it’d go down.” I loved it so much. Shinji’s a broken, abused shell child. He lives with a broken human who drowns her sorrows in drink. His father is just evil. He’d have to be to let his kid pilot the mecha.
The only real father figure we ever see for shinji is a spy. Who gets killed. He’s in love with a girl that hates him. Because he’s broken. But he has no one else. Except those friends at school who I think they take away. Don’t remember. And that angel who he has to kill or something. Damn, it’s been like 25 years. I have no idea what happened. But in my memory it’s terrible. Wonderful stuff.
