You’ve heard of serverless cloud architecture
Now, get ready for… 🥁🥁🥁
Cloudless server architecture
We’re offering features you thought you could only dream of:
Hardened database security: Databases don’t have to be exposed to the network thanks to the wonders of On-System Databases™ and Unix Sockets™, hardening security tenfold!
Latency-free database connections: As if that wasn’t good enough, On-System Databases™ allow you to dramatically reduce latency by bypassing the need for pesky network connections!
On-Demand Web Worker Process Spawning™ using the Common Gateway Interface™
Bare-Metal Access™ to On-Server Storage™ for unparalleled Read™ and Write™ speeds
Predictable costs: No more surprise bills. Pay only for what you specify! Our patent-pending Hardware Limitations™ automatically throttles your cloudless server if you reach capacity
Documentation: tired of trying to navigate through the jungle of outdated and incorrect Azure or AWS documentation? Don’t fret! Operating systems are documented by the most dedicated gangs of nerds you can find on freenode!
Lot of fun tonight! #ham short wave listening after I moved to a elevated and isolated place for a better signal reception.
The #trike (3 wheels #recumbent bike) is awesome for this because I was able to use my laptop while sitting comfortably in my seat, water at hand.
I did meet NOBODY while staying at this place for 2 hours :D
I have been able to record radios in the 15, 12 and 10 meters bands and also in the 70cm band using a #sdr on #linux Skywave distro (work out of the box)
"OK Google, remind me to buy a hat and gloves."
Is that seriously what the big tech companies are showcasting of their cutting-edge technologies to the society?
Is society really willing to give away their souls so they can delegate mundane life-tasks in the name of coolness and progress?
People need to be more selfish when dealing with institutions: we need to judge freemium services and question if what we give away is equivalent to what we receive in value.
Yesterday's icy mist in some mistletoe infested trees. I'm immaturely calling this series "freezing their balls off". #photography #mastoart
A read about Metaverse: what it is, what it could be; and world after the Internet

Revised git master -> main thoughts
Changing the branch name is something we *can* do. It's going to be very annoying and break a lot of things, but we *could* do it and it wouldn't be the end of the world.
I value software which is stable, and robust. I value making and keeping promises about how your software works to users. I value an objective, fact-driven engineering process. I don't think this issue is any of those things, so it's pretty obvious why it rubs me the wrong way.
I'm also still pretty sure that the campaign is largely led by white people who would presume to speak for their black peers, and I really fucking hate it when people presume to speak for someone else on moral grounds.
All things said, however, I do care about people's feelings, and I understand that there are legitimately some PoC who feel personally uncomfortable with the word. I have still never seen even one first-hand take from a PoC, but I've seen enough second-hand accounts to at least reduce confidence in my position.
So, I have been downgraded from "I am against this change" to "I am annoyed by this change". I call for a measured, unemotional discussion in the planning and execution of the change, careful not to presume that anyone is a racist for pushing for a more careful rollout. Give ample notice to affected parties and have a sense of empathy for those who are going to face problems resulting from the ensuing large-scale breakages.
