The company that is being struck tried to sneak around the union contracts by making a shell company to do casting calls below the contact rates? That Riot Games? I’m not shocked.

Desperately hoping to find something on the thin-layer chromatography plate?

What about switching to Prometheus for metrics and snagging some premade dashboards in Grafana? Since it’s pull-based, up is a freebie, especially if you expose the node_exporter via your reverse proxy.

These are the opinions of an idiot with no marketable skills.

Certainly doesn’t sound like an idiot with no marketable skills to me. You’re coming up with creative ideas and finding ways to try to prove them out in disciplines that you aren’t terribly familiar with. You’re really selling yourself way too short here and should be A LOT more compassionate towards you.

Really, it sounds like you are in a similar place to Product Management.

The way that you are approaching things is about diametrically opposite to the sort of problematic behavior that the corpos using LLMs to bludgeon labor are participating in.

As someone who works in software engineering and has experience in multiple languages, infosec, as well as working through compliance with multiple certification standards, I’d be happy to help, provided one of two conditions is met:

1. You pay me my salary rate, with a minimum of 10 hours, half in advance and report available after receipt of full payment (grew up with tradespeople and a lot about working with clients comes from what I learned from them).

Or,

2. The code base is fully, and permanently open-sourced, prior to code review. This means licensing under GPL, LGPL, MIT, or BSD licenses, or equivalent, not “source available”.

Sounds nice.

I’ll give you two:

First, what I call “shitty punk rock” (no offense to the performers). I consider it a form of folk music as it is played by people who may or may not be talented or skilled but, they play it anyway. They have something to express and they choose to express it and passionately express it with such a low level of self-judgement that I envy. Years ago, I’d be in the pit but, I’m not cut out for it anymore. I’ll still support em as I can though.

My favorite though, absolutely has to be folk-punk. Whether singing originals or covers or punkified trad or tradified punk, I absolutely love it. Some recommendations would be Days’n’Daze, Defiance Ohio, and The Dreadnoughts.

I’m also a fan.

Of note Nick Cave has an album filled with pure brutality named “Murder Ballads” that can be a bit hard to get through for me, not for musicality or style but because it succeeds at embodying that term, “brutality”.

After being told “no”, he started purging officers that take their constitutional duty seriously.

Yup. Maybe a bit bitter at US telecoms pocketing the subsidy money from the 90s, 00s, 10s, and 20s, without delivering.

Fiber to the Home Internet connectivity that was paid for 30 years ago.

I can’t work.

And you (and everyone else) shouldn’t HAVE to. There’s enough automation and technology to make it so that nearly all of society’s needs could be met with a handful of hours of work from people who are able and driven to do so.

I hope you are able to engage in creative or other activities that bring you joy and fulfillment, despite your limitations. If you are not, due to lack of assistive device or other means, please communicate it. There are communities here and a lot of users like myself that would be happy to try to help.

And if the murder of Daniel Shaver is any indication, cowering before police authority isn’t a sure bet against being killed either.

Termux already does a lot of cool stuff without root. Makes due a decent ssh client in a pinch.

An AFRICAN immigrant.

Could be argued to be unreported campaign contributions.

“uiskey” That is actually very close to the original Irish words: uisce beatha (ish-kuh ba-ha), meaning “water of life”.

Ace people, I would assume, but don’t want to put words in anyone’s mouth.

it also had direct memory access to make it faster

WHAT?!! That’s a special level of wbject disregard for security.

Yup.
