Work smart, not hard. That’s still a winning argument for me

Lack of blood sausage is a deal breaker for me

I hate packing because I have to make many decisions and remember of previous packing experiences where I used less than half of the clothes, so I keep rearranging until last minute.

Anyway, this time I had an intense two weeks at work preparing things before I went on my holiday. I had to wake up at 4:45am to go into the airport but the last time I messed up with the bags was 1:30am on the same day. “No biggie” I thought, and I set the alarm for 4:45 and slept.

When I wake up, the first thing I remember thinking was “damn, that was a nice, deep sleep. I feel good”. The sun was shining gently through the curtains and it felt like a great Saturday morning A few seconds later I realize something was off. I reach my phone and look at the time: something past 11am.

Long story short I had to buy an one way ticket and luckily there was another flight on the afternoon.

The aftermath: I don’t trust my mobile phone to wake me up. I set two separate alarms to wake me up if I have one of those very early morning flights. If I am in a hotel, I also request two separate wake up calls, just to be sure.

Not more, necessarily, but definitely more exposed as smaller servers won’t have legal and regulatory compliance teams supporting them

Perhaps, once legal consequences of comments start kicking in here and there, the Fediverse will tend to remain fragmented to avoid having very large communities that also happen to act as a lightning rod for litigation

Sleep during mid-day

Kotlin won’t save your skin if the code you wrote should be performant but you layered it into a heap of abstract classes, interfaces, factories, etc and, realistically, no one else would use or expand on that

Then your instance will mirror all those questionably legal communities and re-serve them to the public unauthenticated internet, creating hosting liability for you.

To be frank, this liability risk exists even in well-moderated communities as it only takes one rogue poster/commenter to “contaminate” your own instance…

Shroom, my man. Shroom.

Only once, tho

This is the scorched earth approach to error handling

Right now, the Soviet Captain, a man named Tupolev is removing the safety features on all his weapons.

No, he is on a pointer to a pointer to a point tonight

In essence those are just a PC, switch, NAS, and UPS…

Technically correct is the best kind of correct

I still do not know how to access them through Jerboa

Austria here. Yes, drink from tap, especially Wien. You won’t find mineral bottled water for sale easily.

This is the consequence of the fed raising interest rates and companies finding it much harder to find money to pay salaries and operating costs. So companies have to actually seek profit or go bust and CEOs and board of directors are getting desperate and showing how little they understand what makes their products great.

to better their situation

Well, that is, assuming they want to. Some, definitely. Long term loiterers, not so sure.
