Found from a google, no experience with it.
Tape is not a nice medium for the self-hoster, the drives are expensive, the tapes need to be carefully stored securely (temperature and humidity controled). Its a lot of hassle. That said, if you find something good, I'm interested as well, so report back.
"Chief claims" - without evidence, this means absolutely nothing. Especially as this was a higher up, who likely heard about something happening through multiple layers of reports.
I don't think that's a very good quote to sum up the article. He may have said it, but he is clearly taking "days off" and looking after his mental health, as he should.
You can't help anyone if you burn out or drive yourself to suicide, so taking care of yourself is extremely important to ensure that you can keep turning up. And for such a high strain job, you really need to take care of yourself.
Bios passwords dont provide security at all. At most, mild theft prevention (that is trivially bypassed). If you want security, disk encryption is what you want.
Replace your CMOS battery, NTP is good to, but you really don't want your CMOS freaking out.
Thats hot. And I am going to assume this is canon from now on.
Really hope we arent stupid enough to vote him in.
Variety is good to a point. Too many alternatives and all you get is a bunch of under-resourced and unpolished results.
Realtime doesn't necessarily mean low latency, it means consistent latency.
So if the latency from and input takes 1s, that is realtime, as long as its always 1s.
Typically for gaming you want the lowest latency possible, and at least historically, that meant not realtime.
Edit: Some examples with made up numbers:
Airbag: you want an airbag to go off EVERY time, and if that means it takes 10ms, thats usually OK. RT guarantees that your airbag will go off 10ms after a crash every time.
Games: you want your inputs handled ASAP, ideally <5ms, but if one or two happen after 100ms, you'll likely not notice. If you enable RT, maybe all your inputs get handled after 10ms consistently, which ends up feeling sluggish.
Unless you know you need RT, you probably dont actually want it.
And more importantly, actually do the job instead of golfing.
Ah is capacity, A is flow rate. As long as the voltages are correct, it'll charge eventually.
Ah == size of the bucket, A is the size of the hose you fill it with.
Kanban is Agile. They are pushing Impact Engineering.
Be a parent, and be present when they are using it. You don't have to watch constantly, but at least be nearby. Teach them basic digital safety, literacy, and privacy skills.
You cant control all the devices they have access to, so you have to give them to knowledge and tools to be safe.
