How to create 60 FPS animations with FLIP

I am currently streaming my work on migrating HomelabOS from a docker-compose based implementation to a k8s (actually k3s) based implementation. With Longhorn backing it, I'm pretty excited by the possibilities. It will stay as generic as HomelabOS is, so it will be deployable on anything from a pi on up to big cloud machines.

I won't be doing any 3d printing or anything like that though, so what the author here is doing looks fun in it's own right!

Since this is currently talking to AWS and k8s directly, unless you are setup in a way that would let AWS know about the intrusion detection, then this is likely out of scope for now.

Similar to the logs/systems access. If AWS or k8s can read the logs, there is a chance we can crunch them, if they are in a separate logging platform, we would currently be unable to fetch that information. Great ideas for future features though!

It is currently read only yes.

Release engineer here.

With the exception of the first example (I'm not sure how good it would be at event monitoring like that, though we're absolutely going to try it out!), I think all of these should work. We've tested the daily spend report already.

Give it a shot and let us know how it works for you!

I want my kids to experience some hardship where your boss is yelling at you to get shit done

This is a horrendous take, and I’m glad you’re not my parent.

They’ll learn the world isn’t rainbows and sunshine without being in a toxic work environment before they’re even old enough to vote.

The mouse that I ditched in favor of this setup was a vertical mouse, I definitely agree that is better than your standard variety.

The mouse key layer includes scrolling keys, and I do actually have a scroll wheel on the left module which I use a decent bit while reading. Best of both worlds IMO.

Of course, to each their own!

My previously favorite keyboard, Das Keyboard, has a rotary encoder for the volume control, and it's fantastic. I agree that sliders and encoders could/should be used more. There are plenty of great MIDI devices out there that offer them, I should play around with some of them for day to day stuff like this rather than just music.

Off topic, but I deleted the Lyft app last month after I rode one of their scooters home. Apparently, they have a geofenced area around downtown, and any ending of the ride outside of that area is considered "bad parking" and they will charge you a $50 fee. They put the fee on my receipt, along with a $50 credit, as a warning I guess.

The issue I have with this is that there are many "no go" areas downtown, like the pedestrian mall, and the scooter will simply stop working if you go into those areas. You have to manually push the scooter back out of the area before it will start working again. Great, perfect, fine, good, so then why did you let me drive it outside of the valid downtown area to begin with?

Free as in beer. Not free as in speech.

Is it Open Source?

Datomic will continue to be developed at Nubank, where it is a critical piece of our infrastructure.

Less than 4% of Congress members say they're unaffiliated with religion or don't know. PRRI's survey says nearly 27% of the general public is unaffiliated.

THIS is the biggest disparity in the article. Not that X or Y faith or under or over represented, but that almost a full 1/3 of the country is non-religious, yet less than 5% of Congress matches that view point.

We need more openly atheist leaders.

I think we’ll see them leapfrogging millennials on the career ladder because they had a youth where they could spend their entire time learning literally everything there is to know about their passion for free.

I’m a millennial and I spent my youth learning everything there is to know about my passions for free. YouTube is not they only avenue of free online education.

To each their own I guess. I listened to it with headphones, and it was very soothing.

This is not about pressure to keep some company going, but about the vast amounts of photography and related-gear knowledge that DPReview.com contains.

I have been using DPReview to pick my camera gear for over 20 years. It would be an absolute tragedy for the photography community if it goes away.

I like that your first point asks for data on a common phenomenon. (Side note: Everyone was reassigned or got a better job? You sure about that?)

Then your second point is a wild anecdote with zero data. (Side note: With zero additional data I can tell you that your “judging” of their profit is wildly inaccurate.)

Self checkout machines put people out of a job.

Cars put stable boys out of jobs.

Light bulbs put candlemakers out of jobs.

Are the people who made them also morally culpable?

Let’s just make no progress ever in the name of employment I guess. /s
