I believe Codeberg also has import mechanisms for all the bits alongside the git repo as well. Issues, releases and all that kind of stuff.

It was very odd at my company. We were a Google Workspace company. Gmail, Meet, Drive, etc with our own servers for messaging, gitlab and some other things.

Sure being Google based isn’t great either, but generally people were fine with it. Then the C suite said we were moving to Microsoft. Lots and lots of complaining, asking for justification, but no reason was given (not even cost). Today people are still cursing teams 18months later. We’re not in control of our own data (things get deleted every time somebody leaves, and permissions are generally a mess).

6000 in 4 months with the system he inherited is still more that previously. Why do you think this is his final goal? Of course he’s aiming higher.

Yes it may have an effect on prices, but there are second order effects. One example is that it would also have an effect on a huge number of people’s ability to pay those prices. A customer base that can afford goods will likely increase sales. Increasing sales can increase revenue.

Markets are complex dynamic systems and often the key to getting a healthy economy is removing choke points where money doesn’t flow. Not paying people enough kills demand. An economy with low demand is dying.

When you measure something and set it as the goal, what was a good indicator becomes divorced from what you care about.

Measuring GDP makes GDP the goal, not general wellbeing. So if you care about wellbeing, measure it and use that as your driving metric.

Are we sure on the scale of this picture? That could easily be a man in a clean room suit from a long way away.

The light tends to be reflected light off solar panels. Sometimes, as the satellite moves the light doesn’t reflect at you.

That just happens to be when comets are typically most visible.

To give a little more context. The tail is created by the solar wind, and is strongest when the comet is closest to the sun. Being near the sun makes it appear close to the sun in the sky (obviously). That puts comets in the daytime sky and impossible to see. It only dawn and dusk when you’re still able to see in the right direction and the sky is dim enough that you are able to observe comets.

I find it odd you’d say light pollution is worse since LEDs. I thought the design of lights was generally far more directional with LED design and avoided shining light upwards. Now you can fly over large areas with street lighting and only see dimmer reflected light from roads and not the streetlights themselves.

Thankfully they’re low enough orbit that their orbit would decay pretty quickly. It’d be a superb show as the sky lit up with millions of pieces of burning debris. Not sure what it would do for the atmosphere though. It would be a fair amount of metals being vaporised.

That’s not how the word gimp was used. It was a cripple. Somebody with a gimp was somebody with a limp.

It wasn’t that big at the time. I mean it was a hit for him, but one of many. It’s remembered for the drum fill, and that really started because of the Cadbury’s gorilla advert.

It’s just been memed to hell

That one isn’t a “yank obsession”. Fathers are important, as are mothers, and any child growing up with only one of them is going to have things they miss-out on.

BTW I’m not passing any judgement on single sex couples adopting, or any other shape of loving family. I don’t know any data on what the outcomes are like, but I’m sure the most important thing is the love and support the child gets.

“…because a paedophile likes pre-pubescent children.” he continued.

Interesting, because I heard recent reports of huge amounts of inventory and large upfront manufacturing costs painting a picture of a company with extremely large amounts of debt to service. Some likening it to the Evergrande property company.

I doubt it’s on that scale, but I could easily believe BYD is another hyper accelerated company with shaky fundamentals.

Edit: This appears to be the background

Ironically, that stability is probably why AMD target Ubuntu. They don’t want everything else on the bleeding edge. Just their bit.

Having seen other “rush the president away” situations, it’s always been the secret service dudes in black suits defending him. When did he start taking a military force in full tactical gear to dinner? It’s not like they were hiding behind the scenes. They just took a few side steps to form a human wall in front of the secret service.

There’s part of me that’s thinking he’s so sure of his analysis, maybe he’s wrong. Especially as he’s a bit of a lone voice. Trouble is, I don’t see how he would be.

…or the McDonald’s.
