(#qgdbh2a) @stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no Safe ride, don’t get injured!
(#vyd7h3a) @bender@twtxt.net Ah, thank you! So, 14:00 UTC+2 might work out.
Heck yeah! I saw my first slow worm this year. Very cool. :-) We also came across some art in the woods. Surprisingly, the blackberries in the forest were mellower than the ones on the south side bushes with sun exposure all day long.
(#vyd7h3a) @prologic@twtxt.net I will try. Which time was it again?
Error error parsing created field: parsing time “1689093798000000000” as “2006-01-02T15:04:05Z07:00”: cannot parse “093798000000000” as “-”
(#g6v4kxq) @movq@www.uninformativ.de Ah, I did not have a portable diskman. Just a stationary radio with an integrated CD player. Or my parent’s stereo. But it’s sooo long ago, I can’t remember how long switching tracks took. Yeah, on second thought, maybe a second. Well, that actually improved then. Finally. Nice. :-) Loading the CD took several seconds, that’s for sure. And some devices were certainly slower than others.
(#juhuf5a) @prologic@twtxt.net @bender@twtxt.net Yep, @xuu@txt.sour.is’s watcher would be my guess as well. :-D
(#c7kyxoa) @movq@www.uninformativ.de @bender@twtxt.net Thanks, mates. I was on the fence with 13 and 15. :-)
(#g6v4kxq) @movq@www.uninformativ.de There’s a big difference between being usable somehow and having fun using it. My tolerable limits are lower, but yeah. Up to five seconds for the “next track”? What music player are you using? :-D This must happen in way under a second, and luckily, this works here. :-) (But I’m also not streaming my music, it’s all on the local disk.)
(#2rxkcca) @abucci@anthony.buc.ci Can you please check if you reported @xuu@txt.sour.is’s IP address 162.211.155.2 on mistake and let his ISP know that this was some false alarm? They’re monitoring his traffic to your server and treating this as continued abuse. :-(
(His twts have been synced to your yarnd by yarnd’s gossip protocol.)
(#2rxkcca) @abucci@anthony.buc.ci Just making sure you’re seeing @xuu@txt.sour.is’s twt, in case he’s still on your blacklist:
Hey so.. i just got an email from my ISP saying they will terminate my service. Did i break something @abucci ?
(#g6v4kxq) @movq@www.uninformativ.de My issue is, now that we have the chance of getting something fast, people artificially slow it down again. Wether they think it’s cool that they added some slow animation or just lack of knowledge or whatever. The absolute performance does not translate to the relative performance that I observe. Completely wasted potential. :-(
In today’s economy, nobody optimizes something if it can be just called good enough with the next generation hardware. That’s especially the mindset of big coorporations.
Anyway, getting sidetracked from the original post. :-)
(#c7kyxoa) @prologic@twtxt.net Yup. Didn’t regret climbing these three hundred odd meters of elevation. :-)
(#ug2ndqa) @stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no Worky, worky now! :-)
Mate, these are some really nice gems! What a stunning landscape. I love it. Holy cow, that wooden church looks really sick. Even though, I’m not a scroll guy and prefer simple, straight designs, I have to say, that the interior craftmanship is something to admire.
(#ug2ndqa) @stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no Welcome back! I don’t know what’s going on, but all the photos fail to load for me. Wget reports decoding errors for the received TLS packets. :-?
Went for a walk onto my backyard mountain again and ate the first three wild blackberries of the season. Watching the sunset unfold from the summit was quite spectacular. The solar disk was glowing extremely blood red. The photos show it way too white, though.
(#ndodcuq) @xuu@txt.sour.is Interesting!
(#g6v4kxq) @movq@www.uninformativ.de It’s fascinating how people always find ways to completely waste all gained resource improvements and speedups and beyond, so every new and more powerful computer actually feels like a big step backwards. :-( The web shit is particularly terrible.
(#ndodcuq) @prologic@twtxt.net I reckon, it’s just so that they can say: “Oh, whoopsy daisy. Too bad that you fell for our trap. Sorry, it’s entirely your own fault. Go away, leave us alone.”
The bullet point 8.6 continues right away (I forgot the ellipsis in my initial quote, excuse me):
[…] Customer agrees that it is Customer’s responsibility to ensure safe use of an Offering and the CrowdStrike Tools in such applications and installations. CROWDSTRIKE DOES NOT WARRANT ANY THIRD PARTY PRODUCTS OR SERVICES.
And in the one before that:
8.5 No Guarantee. CUSTOMER ACKNOWLEDGES, UNDERSTANDS, AND AGREES THAT CROWDSTRIKE DOES NOT GUARANTEE OR WARRANT THAT IT WILL FIND, LOCATE, OR DISCOVER ALL OF CUSTOMER’S OR ITS AFFILIATES’ SYSTEM THREATS, VULNERABILITIES, MALWARE, AND MALICIOUS SOFTWARE, AND CUSTOMER AND ITS AFFILIATES WILL NOT HOLD CROWDSTRIKE RESPONSIBLE THEREFOR.
In other words: “Just give us your money and hope for the best. It might work. Maybe.” Nope, of course it doesn’t.
(#exdpxpa) Thanks, @aelaraji@aelaraji.com! :-) I nearly missed it, because the shutters are closed to keep the heat out.
This sunset was nicer in person: https://lyse.isobeef.org/abendhimmel-2024-07-22/
(#lu7gjvq) @movq@www.uninformativ.de What a pity for all the effort!
(#ndodcuq) It’s also funny to read their terms and conditions:
8.6 […] THE OFFERINGS AND CROWDSTRIKE TOOLS ARE NOT FAULT-TOLERANT AND ARE NOT DESIGNED OR INTENDED FOR USE IN ANY HAZARDOUS ENVIRONMENT REQUIRING FAIL-SAFE PERFORMANCE OR OPERATION. NEITHER THE OFFERINGS NOR CROWDSTRIKE TOOLS ARE FOR USE IN THE OPERATION OF AIRCRAFT NAVIGATION, NUCLEAR FACILITIES, COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS, WEAPONS SYSTEMS, DIRECT OR INDIRECT LIFE-SUPPORT SYSTEMS, AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL, OR ANY APPLICATION OR INSTALLATION WHERE FAILURE COULD RESULT IN DEATH, SEVERE PHYSICAL INJURY, OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
That’s why all airports remained operational. Oh wait…
(#bl7a36a) @movq@www.uninformativ.de No, no, not snarky at all. That’s just their Aussie name. :-)
(#o53yanq) @prologic@twtxt.net Right, I hate it. I’d stick to regular pagination and page sizes that are reasonable large. But if you think another approach is better, go for it. It’s your sofware after all.
(#o53yanq) Ah, thanks, @bender@twtxt.net! Yeah, that combines the disadvantages of both approaches and successfully throws away the advantages. I actually know at least two webshops with that terrible UI.
(#o53yanq) @prologic@twtxt.net What’s that?
(#ttjvaya) @prologic@twtxt.net Just look at their website. Yesterday, there was this quote, it’s already gone by now:
Cybersecurity’s AI-native platform for the XDR era
Mo-mo-mo-monster bingo!
Someone archived this screnshot, that I’ve also seen yesterday: https://assets.chaos.social/cache/media_attachments/files/112/812/257/953/926/994/original/c9de6459751f2ebf.png „Your company can be ruined in just 62 minutes“ Luckily, ClownStrike can shorten this timeframe even more. :-D
@movq@www.uninformativ.de I hope all admins can at least tell management: Told you so! But of course, no manager gets fired for their bloody stupid decision.
@xuu@txt.sour.is We got several e-mails about this whole desaster at work.
(#vaozyya) @prologic@twtxt.net I do not like infinite scroll at all. I think it is an anti-pattern. It doesn’t let me quickly jump ahead. Pagination is superior in that regard.
(#ttjvaya) @prologic@twtxt.net @movq@www.uninformativ.de Haha, didn’t affect me or my direct workmates either. But our scrummie logged off with BSOD and another workmate also told me to have already experienced three with successful reboots, though. Another branch was completely offline and I heard rumors about factories being shut down, too.
Anyone who reads the CrowdStrike self-description and then buys the product has really earned a major fault.
This is exactly what’s going to happen, movq. Zero lessons learned. No consequences. Maybe just a bit more snake oil on top.
(#c2afqsq) @movq@www.uninformativ.de Yeah, I don’t get it either. Some “security” scanner at work also complains about “dead” libraries all the time, just because the most recent commit is a few years or even just months old. What a giant joke.
This mindset might come from today’s kids who can build stuff only with gazillions of dependencies. And plenty of these suck, are full of bugs, vulnerabilities and bad code in general. So they have to be patched constantly. If one is always surrounded by that, it just feels normal. One might even come to the conclusion that it simply has to naturally be that way. And then, the incorrect deduction is that the project is abandoned, once there are no new commits in a week. It maybe doesn’t occur to these people that it is actually possible to work out differently.
To be fair, there is also a lot of unfinished and truly dead code out there. So that assures their theory even further, once they stumble across one of those projects.
And the same doesn’t only happen to private projects. All enterprise software systems also pull in so much stuff, that there is always something to update.
The lack of proper planning, just building and delivering buggy banana software in cycles and the mindset of shipping fast and often and doing things agile in general does not do this any favor. It just feels like today’s sofware is never ever finished. And if it finally reaches such a point, it must be dead.
I know of some otherwise reeeeaaaaally great software developers who also think that way. I don’t understand why they disagree with us here. :-?
(#bl7a36a) @movq@www.uninformativ.de Why would that be surprising? :-) They definitely fit my style of music. Well, I don’t wanna know how much a ticket is. And the Wasen is also a terrible location. :-D
The overcrowded train was run by GoAhead, the S-Bahn by DB. They’re interchangeably bad.
Over fifty kilometers is a very long bike ride. That at least doubles my commute to more than six hours in total. No, thanks. ;-)
(#qtrfeca) @movq@www.uninformativ.de It requires heaps of discipline. Lots of.
(#c2afqsq) @movq@www.uninformativ.de @prologic@twtxt.net Good analysis! Another aspect is: Trying out new stuff is appealing to a lot of people. I’m certainly not unguilty of that either. But when you experiment, things will naturally go wrong somewhere at some point. You probably don’t even know that at this point in time and realize this only much later. If at all.
To make it better, throwing things away and starting over with the newly aquired knowledge would be the right thing to do. But that doesn’t happen for a myriad of reasons. So you ended up with overly complex stuff.
A bit like building a prototype and keeping it alive forever. “Denn nichts hält länger als ein Provisorium.” – “Nothing is more definitive than the temporary.”
Then there comes in feature creep. And preliminary optim^Wfeatures, “hey, maybe somebody would like to bla in the future, let’s add this”.
I just heard AC/DC play live in Stuttgart-Bad Cannstatt for the first time in my life!
Well, when I was waiting for my train home on the station platform. I didn’t recognize that it was Acca Dacca, and I tried hard. In fact, the stage was 500 meters away, so it was just some music-like sound that found its way into my ears. Still kinda cool to know that I heard them live.
I had a barbie with my old workmates. That’s why I have a story to tell now. On the way there, the train was hopelessly overcrowded with AC/DC fans. You couldn’t fall down, simply impossible. It was like in the videos of Japanese subways, where guards press in passengers to utilize every square centimeter. At later stations, plenty of people didn’t get in. Not a chance. This caused quite some delays. And boy, was it hot in there. Streams of sweat running down everywhere.
Originally, I wanted to meet up with a workmate in a city train for the second part of the trip. Due to a signal failure, his train was delayed, though. It got delayed even more and more and was finally cancelled altogether. I eventually got my connecting train while he was still stuck and decided to abort mission and go home after 40 minutes. Catching my connection was another adventure. It was rerouted to another platform, of course without announcement. Because why would you? Fuck the passengers! Luckily, I noticed that it took a different branch at the switch on arrival and ran down and up the stairs to the other platform. The delay counter in this train showed 40 minutes when I finally got off.
With the exception of Acca Dacca, the way home was pleasantly uneventful. Just a few minutes delay and a relatively low passenger volume.
I’m so grateful for not having to experience all this shit on a daily basis anymore. Not looking forward to the next time I have to go into the city. Not at all.
