cloud-init support is sorely missed.
argulane · 4 months ago
Proxmox has had cloud-init support for a while and we have been using it for several years in production.

Even for timeseries there is https://github.com/timescale/timescaledb. Haven't used it, just knew it existed.

I have used TimescaleDB in my last work place. We needed a easy way to store and visualize 500hz sensor data for few 10s of devices. We used it and Grafana to build a internal R&D tool and it worked way better than I imagined. Before I left I think the DB was using ~200GB on a compressed btrfs volume in DigitalOcean droplet and still performed fine for interactive Grafana usage.

The problems with the Prius are basically:

  - Terrible in snow and ice
  - No way to defrost your windshield, unless you're already driving
  - Poor rear window visibility
If not for those things it would be great, but unfortunately they've made zero progress on fixing any of the core issues for the last 25 years. The new models definitely do look cooler, and I appreciate that they accelerate faster, but I personally care much more about the stuff that could potentially kill me when I'm driving.

I own a 2024 Toyota Corolla Hybrid (similar drive train to Prius) and it defrost the window way faster than my previous Volkswagen Passat. Ice and snow handling has been pretty similar here in North Europe compared to my previous car, studded winter tires are the key. Visibility is also quite comprareble.

This is an SMS spamming tool, right?
argulane · a year ago
We use it to send OTP messages through few telco providers who don't have HTTP API.

It's cool to see that they are still going. To any one looking to using this for SMPP connections should skip the releases and build it straight from SVN trunk to get the latest bugfixes.

I'm using lieer and mujmap to sync my Gmail and Fastmail accounts to a local notmuch mail storage on top of ZFS pool. That ZFS pool is in turn replicated off site.

I use neomutt to access my archive over SSH. And notmuch is very fast at searching all of my emails.

argulane commented on How to fork   joaquimrocha.com/2024/09/... · Posted by u/levlaz

Rule of thumb is:

- never force push a branch

- at least not if someone else could be working on it

- and definitely not without talking to them about it

Personally I force push my branches quite often. It's super useful to rebase my branch on to main/master or doing an interactive rebase to reorder my commits, merge or just change the commit message.

I've been on the other end of someone rebasing and force pushing. I've found that just removing the branch from my local git and then checking it out fresh from origin is the simplest way to go.

argulane · a year ago
You can also `git fetch` and `git reset --hard origin/force-pushed-branch` to get your local branch up to speed with remote one assuming you don't have any local changes.
