Watched it for the first time following Furiosa. I've seen fewer seeders on new releases.

I was pretty miffed when I realised "gas town"'s primary export was petrol and not, you know, gas.

Simulink has a concept called Test Harnesses which are models that isolate individual blocks for testing. The tests themselves are then driven programmatically from MATLAB

That's the only kind of apartment we make!

Residences in new developments are often sold before they are built

I'm Australian, and the photo clearly showing that you can park a car and get two cars past one another tells me that these "narrow streets" are substantially wider than all the normal streets in my vicinity.

I suspect this is more of a stroad (and planning) problem than an actual narrow street problem.

Have you got concurrency and parallelism swapped around?

Australia has ABC Vote Compass, but it has some oddities based on issues with our political/media landscape:

• it only places you relative to the three top parties
• all the questions are specific election wedge issues (mostly between the top two parties) rather than broader ideological questions, and so it only updates in the run up to each federal (read: national, Australia wide) election
• it takes politicians statements at face value, and doesn't factor in actual behaviour in power which is often at odds (if you're curious, look up the history of high speed rail or nuclear power in Australia. Both have been used for electioneering again and again, neither exist despite the advocating party winning)

Care to share any favourites?

Oh god you reminded me of this gem

https://serverfault.com/questions/780150/how-to-cache-contents-in-haproxy#780155

Someone asks how to do http caching in HAproxy.

The one answer:

don't use the wrong tool

haproxy is a wonderful tool. It does not provide caching. A quick scan of the fine docs can verify this. Unless you want to patch haproxy you need to use a tool that does what you're looking to do.

don't create impossible problems

By asking for haproxy to do something that it doesn't and excluding the tool that seems to do what you want to do you've create an impossible situation. There is no technical solution for this. Don't make choices that box you into a corner.

try varnish or anything that actually caches

If you get over that you might find this tutorial on using varnish with haproxy useful or try varnish by itself. Maybe squid or memcached would be more your speed.

In the comments to this ludicrous tirade we get this simple comment:

This was true and valid back then. Nowadays HAProxy does this.

And just in case someone found this looking for an answer, here's the example from that link

    
backend bck1
  mode http

  http-request cache-use foobar
  http-response cache-store foobar
  server srv1 127.0.0.1:80

cache foobar
  total-max-size 4
  max-age 240

  

fucking bone

Is that what they're calling it these days?

If it doesn't fulfill the requirements it's not any kind of solution

That's a completely different statement

This article seems to have a bizarre assumption all the way through that the schools must use Microsoft 365.

Obviously Microsoft is failing morally and probably legally (what else is new), but the schools also have a moral and legal requirement to choose software which protects the rights of the children. Microsoft is sort of right in the way they surely didn't mean; schools have the responsibility to not use Microsoft 365.

There's something wrong with this data.

The fraction of asses should be way higher.
