Readit NewsAnd official history is unglorified, unsmudged fact and circumstance?
Not necessarily, but it's not not that hard to find anymore to the curious eye
While this “going native” is interesting, sadly there are not much accounts of his whereabouts.
This reminds me about the concept created by the Spanish writer Miguel de Unamuno: “intrahistoria”, i.e. the unofficial history formed the common people.
Unofficial history, many times, is simply glorified memory, which is very biased and dangerous.
This fueled quite a lot the hangover of the nationalisms born during the XIX century.
It really surprises me that Google and Amazon, considering their infrastructure and the urge to excel at this, aren't leading the industry.

I just spent €1,250 for an oven (the only one I could find that was 45cm in height and could cook with steam).
It works very well but I was horrified when I saw the message saying that "It required an urgent security update" and that it would download it from the cloud.
I feel we went too far.
My 4-year old Dell XPS 15 is up for replacement, but somehow no manufacturer aside from Apple is making laptop with decent specs nowadays? I want 2TB storage, a 4k (or close) HiDPI display, good build quality, and not a bulky gaming laptop. The XPS 15 was perfect, it had those specs, except it only had 1TB storage which is now full. I was expecting that to not be an issue 4 years later ... But now Dell discontinued XPS, and their new Pro/Premium models have worse specs in almost all ways. The only non-Apple thing that I can find that even comes close, is a bulky 16" ThinkPad.
And then there is Apple who pack everything I want in a sleek 14" or 15" device, plus a very fast CPU and battery life that is years ahead of anything else ... Why is there no competition here? I'm willing to compromise on battery life, and I don't need the fastest CPU, just a good quality work laptop where I can run `cargo build` / `docker pull` without worrying about filling up the disk, and mostly just a browser aside from that. Why is the gap so large?
Can't be any happier with my Framework laptop.
Give it a read and do a simulation of how much it would cost you to replace the part that forced you to buy a new laptop.

In the past I used clickhouse-bulk and the buffer engine, mostly, which did a good job indeed.
However, during the last years I always find myself using https://vector.dev/ for all sort of tasks, including bulk inserts in ClickHouse.

Don't think I'm taking sides. I'm trying to simply look at it from a neutral bird point of view.
I think this cease fire somehow legitimises, to the public eye, Netanyahu's strategy of intense attack.
It gives the message of "we won't stop until we get the hostages back" and gives the world a reminder of what this is all about, at least according to what he claims.
Again, just trying to observe the message
You don't even have to go to these extremes to understand how rich and delicate Italian cuisine is.
I am lucky to have lived 10 years in Italy and, after they, 25 in Spain. Although Spain is one of the Meccas of food, Italy is simply another level and you can see this from how deeply in the people the food and their techniques are, not just by how good Michelin star restaurants are.
And my prediction is they one day the international community will understand how much there is in Italy beyond pasta and pizza.
What I see from PHP is a missed opportunity for not having any native lightweight multi thread capabilities not a robust HTTP server.
I wish the situation changed.
