  • 4 days on-site, same pay, same 40 hours per week? No. I don't work 10hrs a day + 2hrs of driving. So 5 days remote in this case!

    4 days on-site, same pay, 32 hours per week? Sure, why not? I'll use the driving time with audio books or reading during a train commute.

  • Purchasing power refers to how much goods you can buy with your currency. As you can imagine you can buy less with 100$ in the US than in India, where everything is cheaper. If you take purchasing power into account you convert everything into a "standard amount of stuff". And using a conversion based on "the same stuff" you'll get a different currency conversion factor.

    India achieves their goal still very economically, but it's not 75mil, it's 255mil. The equivalent amount of stuff that costs INR 6.15billion if you buy it in India costs USD 255million if you buy it in the US.

  • Really? I don't think so!

    In absolute values, sure, but They didn't adjust for the difference in purchasing power between India and the US. Yes, the purported INR 6,150,000,000.- can be converted directly into USD 74,400,732.- using the current exchange rate of INR 82.66 for USD 1.

    BUT, if you take into account the difference in purchasing power of the two economies and use a conversion rate that eliminates the differences in price levels between countries (https://data.oecd.org/conversion/purchasing-power-parities-ppp.htm, 24.059 between India and US in 2022) then INR 6,150,000,000.- come out to be equal to USD 255,621,597! This value you can now compare to the production cost of movies in the US etc.

    But what can you expect from those young "journalists" from the independent... they should be ashamed of themselves.

    Edit: You could also take the Big mac index and compare it (https://www.economist.com/big-mac-index) and the 75 million would become about 165 million.

  • The old fish costs $3.92 per 100g, the new fish $5. That's a price increase of (255/200 - 1) = 27.5%. The difference per gram (which isn't of interest to anybody) is 5-3.92, i.e. ¢1.08. Which also equates to a (5/3.92 - 1) = 27.5% increase.

    Not sure what you were calculating, but every result was wrong.

  • Oh man, that's actually really good advice! I recently switched to Vaultwarden, but you're right: If my server goes down, I can't even restart it, because the password for my account is in there! Damn! Close call!

  • The thing is it's not really a "documentation" but just a collection of configs.

    I have organized my containers in groups like you did ("arrs", web server, bitwarden, ...) and then made a repository for each group.

    Each repository contains at least a compose file and a Gitlab CI file where a aimple pipeline is defined with basically "compose pull" and "compose up". There are alao more complicated repository where I build my own image.

    The whole "Git" management is really transparent, because with Gitlab you can edit directly on the platform in a hosted VSCode environment where you can directlY edit your files and when your satisfied you just press commit. I don't do weird stuff with branches, pushing and pulling at all. No need for local copies of the repository.

    If you want to fulltext search all your repos, I can recommend a "Sourcegraph" container, but use version 4.4.2 because starting with 4.5.0 they have limited the number of private reositories to 1. But this is something for later, when your infrastructure has grown.

  • I'm defining my service containers via GitLab and I deploy them via tagged and dockerized GitLab Runners.

    If something fails, I change the runner tags for a service and it will be deployed on a different machine.

    Incl case of a critical failiure, I just need to setup a Debian, install docker, load and run the GL runner image, maybe change some pipelines and rerun the deployment jobs.

    Some things aren't documented well, yet. Like VPN config...

    Ah yes, my router is able to access GitLab as well and pull the list of static routes etc. from it.

  • Bottom car is ugly, sure. But I'd fuck both women; sure, I sometimes eat steak (top one) but sometimes I also eat shitty MCDonalds (bottom one)...

    But lets be real, I'm on Lemmy. They wouldn't even look at me 🤷

  • I realize my comment sounds like throwing shade onto the great file systems in the linux space.

    I just wanted to point out, that when it comes to file systems you probably want the "old and stuffy" one because it has ben tested by time and you won't lose your data.
