I used to work for a very very large company and there, a team of 9 people and I’s entire jobs was ensuring that the shitty qradar stack kept running (it did not want to do so). I would like to make abundantly clear that our job was not to use this stack at all, simply to keep it running. Using it was another team’s job.

Maybe it’s time we invent JPUs (json processing units) to equalize the playing field.

C’est mentionné dans mon commentaire :)

En général ça ne se passe pas.

Ce que je veux dire, c’est que une des grandes difficultés de la production énergétique est de produire exactement assez pour répondre à la demande, sans depasser. Si la production n’est pas suffisante, la phase et la tension finale vont sortir des paramètres acceptables (phase a 50Hz et tension a 200V pour donner un exemple extreme). Dans l’autre sens ça marche pareil, so tu produit trop, la phase et la tension peuvent augmenter trop haut et endommager des equipements, ce qui va encore plus diminuer la consommation, et tu rentre dans une spirale de la mort de sur-production.

Pour palier à ce problème, il y a plusieurs solutions. Premièrement certains types de centrales (photovoltaïques par exemple) peuvent quasiment instantanément s’arrêter. C’est pas mal parce que le jour (quand les panneaux solaires marchent) c’est un creux de consommation, mais le problème c’est que si tu eteint ta centrale solaire tous les jours tu l’as construite pour rien.

Différents types de centrales peuvent varier leur consommation plus ou moins rapidement, par exemple les centrales hydrauliques sont plutôt rapides et les centrales à charbon et nucléaires plus lentes (si le charbon est en train de brûler, tu peux pas tellement aller l’éteindre au pif comme ça).

Deuxiement, et ça rejoint le dernier point, stocker de l’énergie requiert que tu aies de l’énergie en trop a stocker, et ça tombe bien parce que c’est notre sujet. En general, lorsque la production dépasse la consommation par les utilisateurs, les opérateurs du réseau vont stocker le surplus de diverses façons, ce qui leur permet de stocker de l’énergie pas chère et de la réinjecter dans le réseau quand elle est plus chère

Il y a plusieurs techniques pour faire ça, la plus populaire en Europe est d’utiliser le surplus d’électricité du réseau pour pomper de l’eau vers l’amont d’un barrage, pour ensuite utiliser la génération a la demande du barrage lors des heures pleines.

“Mais pourquoi on construit pas des batteries et on les charge?” Parce que les batteries sont plus chères et moins efficaces énergiquement, et que la technologie pour faire des batteries efficaces est plutôt récente.

If you like this then I’d recommend reading more papers published at sigbovik. Favorites include “do programming socks make you better at programing?”, “making hard drives by increasingly stupid and unworkable means” and “a formal mathematical proof that I am transgender”

Neither is op. This meme is old enough to vote.

Fair enough, but also it does that every 80 years or so.

If you need a good queue, then postgres is your friend.

Holy slippery slope, batman!

I believe a terrorist using only personal messages to plan an attack shouldn’t be convicted of “disrupting public order” only based on private messages. Not only he wasn’t a terrorist at all, private messages are incapable of disrupting public order.

Semantic html is largely ignored by search engines. If you’re talking about the source tag, it does not syndicate, at least on Google.

If you’re talking about iframes, Lemmy does not use them. The content appears as though your home instance hosts it (hence why images need to be moderated off-instance so badly).

I mean, do they? Do the search engines do that? I don’t know that they do. They could, but why spend the time making that?

Since communities are viewable by anyone without an account, including search engine crawlers, this is the case by default. It is then up to search engines to crawl them and rank the appropriately.

A major problem right now is that search engines down rank massively pages with duplicate content, and that’s the case with most Lemmy instances because of federation. If the fediverse ever becomes large enough to matter, they will maybe change that, but currently finding things on the fediverse is not exactly a good time.

Edit: kagi search (paid search engine) has recently announced a “search on the fediverse” feature. Neat.

Worth noting that he was previously minister of education while having never set foot in a public school, and that he obviously comes from a very wealthy family. But the oppression is gay, I guess.

Un monde fonctionnel :)

Deep cut mais réel

Il y a encore des communs qui utilisent IRC notamment sur libera mais la plupart des plus grosses sont juste des canaux de support pour des outils open source (par exemple #lineageos sur libera). Regarde du coté de matrix (tu peux créer un compte sur une instance publique ou dm moi si tu veux venir chez poggers.website ;), et sinon en vrai j’ai pu trouver mon bonheur type IRC sur discord, mais c’est vrai qu’il faut un peu choisir d’ignorer le côté réseau social. J’ai passé moult nuits a lurk des généraux et c’est pareil qu’à l’ancienne, faut juste trouver des serveurs avec des discutions intéressantes (perso les discords LGBT ont tendance a marcher assez bien, ymmv).

Have you taken a look at the steam deck? For its price it’s a really good deal (they expect to be selling you games, of course) hardware-wise.

“it’s okay to be white” was crafted by 4chan as a “triggering the libs” phrase. The entire point is to be fully racist and rally under the phrase so that the people calling you racist for genuine reasons appear to be saying that it is not in fact ok to be white. Anyone saying this phrase is a white supremacist trying to trip you into “agreeing” with them that a white genocide exists and is happening, and to convince bystanders (youtube teens at the beginning of the alt-right pipeline) that the left is against white people, ergo if you’re white you should become a Nazi.

I know this because it happened to me. “It’s ok to be white” is prime ben shapiro owns feminists with facts and logic video material.

Idrac, wake on lan, and plug-in behavior: power in bios are all great options here.

My mom kicked me out when I was 18 and I was homeless for 2 weeks. She took me back in when uni started.

This is one of the reasons I don’t speak to hear anymore. At all.

This year, she sent me texts demanding to see me on my birthday. I did not speak to her. At all.

I am now waiting for her to die and for one of my siblings to inform me. Apparently, my sister (who lives in another country, we don’t talk much) is also done with her and doesn’t talk to her at all. I guess our brother will let us know.

What I’m getting at is that you are under no obligation to cater to people who don’t want to tolerate you in the first place. If a guy you lived with for a while was an asshat and demanded to see your children, you’d think he was demented. But suddenly he nutted in your mother once and now it’s fine? Family means nothing on its own. Family means you have a default group of people you interact with, but it’s up to each individual to actually be friends and allies with their family members, and if someone isn’t being a good friend or a good ally, and even is actively antagonizing you, then why do you still feel like you owe them anything? What do you mean “finally getting to the point you should accept it”? Accept him into your life? Why?! What good will that ever do to you? Oh sure maybe you’ll get to think “well I made amends before he died” once he’s dead. Guess what, if you’ve never held a grudge against him like you seem to imply, then it’s actually not up to you to make amends. Don’t tolerate bullshit from people just because they happen to be related to you.
