The other day I was at a spa, they had a TV in the background showing a channel with relaxing images, but after 5 minutes ads started playing.I don't think the spa staff even knew about it. we're fucked

Reminds me of someone who tweeted at YouTube about an experience trying to perform CPR and the CPR video on YouTube got interrupted by an unskippable ad

This is likely either a YouTube/Roku channel that shows relaxing images but monetizes them via ads.

Is anyone paying for this things?


Good idea. If you add a kind of skill/prompt you’ll get a lot of other components from the community ;)


Thats an interesting idea. One of my next steps is to create a tutorial on how to make your own panel. I'll think on this.


I always thought clickhouse would release a kind of oltp engine syncable with the olap one, in their core, compatible with postgres clients. pretty sure the recently launched managed postgresql is just a shortcut :)

For global companies like Starlink, complying with the privacy laws of every country must be a nightmare. In fact, it really surprises me that they actually follow them to the letter in practice. I’d bet that internally and technically they aren’t fully complied with, but there’s no way to know


My workflow is a bit different in the sense I open my claude session in my laptop, at the directory of my ansible homelab code, and I also give Claude access to ssh to my homelab. But at the end it's almost the same, great tool.


I’ve been managing a 100+ GB PostgreSQL database for years. Each two years I upgrade the VPS for the size, and also the db and os version. The app is in the same VPS as the DB. A 2 hour window each two years is ok for the use case. No regrets.


Python was a great language for data science, when data science become a mainstream thing.

it was easy to think about the structures (iterators) it was easy to extend. it had a good community.

And for that, people start extending it via libraries.

There are plenty more alternatives now.


After almost 10 years using ubuntu for vps servers, I’m tired of update them every two years. I would prefer a rolling release distribution, but i don’t have time to select one and make the switch :/


Isn't it worth the balance between stability and effort to go with LTS (long term support / security updates only)?

You know the updates on LTS will be relatively much safer. The limit of potential breaking updates to every 2 years is mostly the point. But if you're just talking about a home lab where you want to use the latest advances without the latest exploits, try a dependency cooldown. Simon Willison recently pointed out this post by William Woodruff about dependency cooldowns [0]. Wait a day between update release and adoption to identify supply chain compromises.

In other words: Don't move fast. Don't break things.

Or: Move slow. Keep things.
