I really like YAML but way too many people use it beyond its purpose… I work with Gitlabci and seeing complex bash scripts inline in YAML files makes me want to hurt people.

Yeah, it’s started to roll out on their new hardware:

I’d not recommend Synology anymore, as they’re starting to implement vendor lock on their drives and NAS boxes. As in, you’ll have to use their drives for the Nas to work.

So much wisdom already!

Yeah but it’s different this time!

Well, TB, GB, MB are decimal (powers of 10). TiB, GiB, MiB are binary (powers of 2). So that’s correct.

The difference between an IT person and a tech enthusiast

That exists and it’s really nifty. At least in France, you have them in most big brand supermarkets. The downside is that it requires a user account.

Americans have been brainwashed pretty hard and worn down over the decades. They’re sick, in debt, surrounded by voices telling them that it’s their fault if they’re poor. A lot of them are living paycheck to paycheck, with little room to take some time to realise how bad the situation is, even less room for maneuvering and organising.
The system works exactly as intended and what’s happening right now is the culmination of years and years of continuous propaganda.
And many world leaders and parties are taking notes right now, it’s gonna spread pretty hard and pretty fast.

I really like Camus’ approach to these questions. Life is meaningless, the world is absurd, nothing matters in the end.
So, basically, try to find your meaning in life and enjoy it while it lasts. Because as far as we know, it’s our one shot at life and it’s pretty much one and done.

Early 30s and no, I won’t have kids for many reasons, those are my top 5:

• I barely hold it together on a day to day basis, I can’t imagine having to put my needs aside and care for someone else 24/7 for decades.
• The current state of the world is frightening, I would feel horrible putting someone in whatever will happen in the years to come.
• I have a high chance of transmitting my ADHD/ASD (my family is pretty much all ADHD/ASD) and I don’t want to willingly put someone through that, even with a good support system.
• More money, more time
• I have nieces and nephews, so I can be the cool uncle whenever I want.
