  • If you’re doing it right, containers are less like VMs and more like cgroups. If orchestrated correctly it uses less system resources to run lots of services on a single system/node.

    That said, I’m a devops/infrastructure/network professional and not a developer, so maybe I’m missing something from the dev experience… But I love containers.

    Docker does kinda suck now, though. Use podman or another interface instead if you can help it.



  • I have never seen this actually happen and I have a lot of experience with gaming with randos (I’m old and I also started a gaming club in college that had over 75 members with at least 15 of them being female). I’ve been playing MTG and D&D at local shops for decades now and I’ve never once seen other dudes simping or fighting over a girl at the table.

    Not saying it can’t happen, nerds are nerds and do often lack social skills. But from my experience (and from what I’ve heard from my female gamer friends), this has got to be a rare situation.


  • I actually really enjoyed trig class.

    I hated all math classes before it, but I had a great teacher and something about the real-life usefulness (triangulation, navigation, etc) of trig clicked for me and I enjoyed it and made an A.

    I fucking failed the shit out of statistics, and hilariously that’s the most related to my real life job, where I’m dealing with gigantic data sets daily looking for outliers/trends.















  • I wonder if you have read/heard the things Rowling has actually said about trans issues.

    I also find it ironic that you liken her to a chrisofachist, when in the early 00s she was basically crucified by those people.

    I certainly don’t agree with everything she has said. But some of her points are genuine “maybe this is something that deserves conversation and contemplating”, which are immediately construed as transphobic or hateful by many people who haven’t personally read/heard what she said. People jump to screaming online instead of trying to refute her points.

    Again, I do NOT agree with her on many, many things!
