Hey! THE HEADLINE and THE BODY OF THE ARTICLE are part of the same body of work. If you want all the context, read all of the work.

If they put all the context in the title, the title would just be the article and would need its own summary.

The difference is you’re acknowledging it now that you get it. Other person is just being deliberately obtuse. The downvotes are entirely appropriate.

Put the LLM instructions in the header or footer section, and set the text color to match the background. Try it on your résumé.

I live in an area with Google Fiber. I’m on their standard gigabit plan, but apparently 3 and 8 gigabit is available for my address - all speeds symmetrical. Really should be the standard for what’s available across the US, but we wouldn’t want to offend upstanding companies like Comcast, ATT, Verizon, etc.

I mean, the very first few lines make it pretty clear he’s not writing for the typical homelab self hoster:

If you are an organization with some spare storage and bandwidth, or an engineer looking to justify an overprovisioned homelab, you should consider running a Certificate Transparency log.

Idiom. Elide. It's really not that confusing. Idioms are about meaning, elision is about sound.

An elision is the absence of a sound or syllable in a word. An idiom is an entire phrase or expression that does not mean what it literally says.

There’s no argument here, you’re just wrong.

No, it isn't both.

That’s not an idiom, it’s just an elided word.

Being in the US, I’d order an uber before I call for an ambulance. Even with insurance I’m afraid to test that debt machine.

For a minute, maybe. Foot goes back down when the cop’s out of view in the mirrors.

I was watching an episode of QI once, and one of the panelists was talking about a phrase in Greek that literally translates to, “There is trouble in the Gypsy village,” and is apparently used to indicate something like, “Who gives a shit?” Idioms are a very interesting part of language.

It didn’t get sorta fixed, the few results that currently show up are just cached results from Cloudflare. The metadata server also didn’t crap out; MusicBrainz made breaking changes to their API.

From the latest updates in the Discord, most of the rebuild work is done. The devs now just need to find the time to get it spun up and working for users - I think one of them is currently in the middle of a move if I read correctly, so it’s just a matter of patience right now.

Because one of the main issues is they also don’t have anyone maintaining the project. There’s no one to make the config change.

In 50 years or so it’ll all be underwater anyway, and tourists won’t be a problem at all!

Aren’t most cell tower functions just backhauled to the Internet these days, anyway?

The other 34% were thrown out the nearest window.

Oh dear gods, not again!

I deleted my Reddit account and switched to Lemmy after the API stuff. I kinda regret deleting my account because it wasn’t until after that I learned about the apps that would scrub your comment history, but Reddit has a tendency to roll those back anyway.

I still sometimes end up on a Reddit thread when searching for some technical issue, but I generally try to browse other forums for solutions first if possible.

ETA: all other social media stuff like Instagram and Facebook I deleted around the time of Trump’s first election. Just got sick of the constant stream of bullshit.

One of my top rules for driving - don’t be NICE, be PREDICTABLE!
