Reddit used to be free for anyone to view without logging in, but now I get "Your request has been blocked due to a network policy." Sorry, but I'm not turning my ad blocker off.

> Wealthfolio does not currently support integration with online brokers or aggregators. Data must be imported from CSV files or by manually entering transactions.

This is unfortunately going to be the deal breaker for wide adoption. Self hosting is great, but manually importing data from dozens of accounts every day and entering every single transaction as you make it is simply too much of a burden.

Would it be possible to write an addon to use Perl's Finance::Quote [1] like GnuCash does? It supports scraping many financial websites, as well as paid AlphaVantage quotes.

Is Reddit going login-required now?

How does this impact reproducible builds in Debian? Does Rust have a good bootstrap story now?

Sounds like DynamoDB is going to continue to be a hard dependency for EC2, etc. I at least appreciate the transparency and hearing about their internal systems names.

I think it's time for AWS to pull the curtain back a bit and release a JSON document that shows a list of all internal service dependencies for each AWS service.

TIL people got scurvy because of Y2K. Turns out it wasn't so harmless now, was it ?

I believe the MRE Orange Drink powder is fortified with Vitamin C, so that should help a bit.

Is "micronode" a new GPU concept, or did they mean "microcode" in the bulletin?

How do SCIFs do time? Do they use optoisolated network connections and then do time sync over that? (SIPRnet, is it?)
offmycloud · 6 months ago
If you have a special project need, you might be able to get one-way IRIG time signal on fiber with guard boxes at both ends. There's really no technical reason why you couldn't do analog GPS baseband over fiber, but you do need approved equipment at both ends for policy reasons. (certified for no backflow)

"If we had a cellular modem, we could get the time from the cell towers, which is broadcast through a protocol called NITZ. This is how phones auto-update when you enter a different timezone, but it's somewhat unreliable depending on the carrier, and overall worse than using GPS. And I really don't want my clock to have a sim card."

Just out of curiosity, what can you do with a cellular modem but no sim card? Can you get the time?

Yes, on newer networks, the 5G NR System Information Block 9 (SIB9) provides UTC time.
