Tried this at work and discovered it only really works on vscode and probably eclipse. Other IDEs claimed support but it was found to be unusable.

I do agree mostly with your point here, but I think you can limit the scope a bit more. Mainly provide a working build environment via one of the mentioned tools, since you will need it anyway for a ci/cd pipeline. You can additionally have a full development environment that you use available for people to use if they choose. It is important that it be one regularly used to keep the instructions up to date for anyone that might want to try to contribute.

From my observations as a sys admin, people tend to prefer the tools they are familiar with, especially as you cross disciplines. A known working example is usually easy to adapt to anyone's preferred tooling.

Modern UEFI in boxes has http boot options generally, and ipxe has supported http boot a long time. though I still get the grub2 bootloader bits over tftp, then http for kernel and initrd.

The lack of version is the problem. Syntax has changed over time, so when someone finds or has an older compose file, there is no hint it won't work with the current version of docker-compose until you get errors and no graceful way to handle it.

Compose doesn't have a versioned standard, it did for a bit iirc, which also means you can't always just grab a compose file and know it will always just work.

Most self hosted works fine with giant all in one containers, even for complex apps, it's when you need to scale you usually hit problems with an all in one container approach and have to change.

If Phillips wrote the plugin it might but all the plugins I have looked at are written by the community. Most plugins are only polling based, so they are scraping data into HAs recorder plugin.

By syncing data, it isn't all data, just that it requires non-local resources, ie cloud/API, to function. You do have to look at each integration to see what it is doing, I would expect a Spotify integration is just hitting the Spotify API and maybe can interact with local devices that Spotify can stream to (ie a Chromecast)

It's anything acidic from what I have found/read, the pamphlet that comes with mine mentions it. You can get a strong and longer lasting effect if you take calcium carbonate (aka antacids) around the same time.

The main benefits to paying for certs are

  • as many said, getting more than 90 days validity for certs that are harder to rotate, or the automation hasn't been done.
  • higher rate limits for issuing and renewing certs, you can ask letsencrypt to up limits, but you can still hit them.
  • you can get certs for things other than web sites, ie code signing.

The only thing that matters to most people is that they don't get cert errors going to/using a web site, or installing software. Any CA that is in the browsers, OS and various language trust stores is the same to that effect.

The rules for inclusion in the browsers trust stores are strict (many of the Linux distros and language trust stores just use the Mozilla cert set), which is where the trust comes from.

Which CA provider you choose doesn't change your potential attack surface. The question on attack surface seems like it might come from lacking understanding of how certs and signing work.

A cert has 2 parts public cert and private key, CAs sign your sites public cert with their private key, they never have or need your private key. Public certs can be used to verify something was signed by the private key. Public certs can be used to encrypt data such that only the private key can decrypt it.

That would still technically be a math problem. I'm not sure if it falls in combinatorics, statistics/probability, or scheduling, but I've had problems like this on math and cs exams.

I've been dealing with lawyers and court recently, they may be above average in terms of intelligence and drive but most wouldn't be extremely above that average. I've had to explain fairly basic math, with easy numbers (fractions like 1/2 and 1/3 regarding pay structure), several times already. Ie

  • base = 100
  • bonus = 1/2 * base
  • total = base + bonus.

Still had to explain that bonus is 1/3 total not 1/2 total.

Taxes on $300k in a year would make it impossible. Would probably have to make $400k in a year to have a chance with expenses and living frugally or 2-3 years @ $300k/year.
