To be fair, there was a roughly 6 year period when vim saw one very minor release. That slow development period was the impetus for the fork of Neovim.

This one has pretty heavy nostalgia for me. Resedit is a big part of why I'm in software development today. My first forays into "hacking" were to use Resedit to modify some nagware to skip the pay screen. It was a definite peek behind the curtain moment that made me much more curious about computing.

Depends though, because in theory you could then have wildly different employment conditions depending on which union / industry you work for.

Of course, if another industry has better conditions, you can always vote with your feet. Competing for employees benefits the employees, in theory.

There's an interesting dynamic there though that you mention that a particular union may affect the employment conditions across a whole industry. So, theoretically an employer in an industry with a bad dominant union might be be hamstrung even if they wish to improve employment conditions but the core issues stem from a bad union (I'll note this question is from the perspective of an American, with limited and generally poor interactions with unions, who wishes things were better here).

Note that elif said "overnight" rate. I'm pretty sure they're on the EV rate plan from GA Power[1]. You only get that rate at night, and you pay a pretty punitive $0.21/kwh for any peak usage. As they mentioned, that's a pretty solid number for the marginal rate you'll pay for an extra kwh, but there are a number of base fees tacked on to that. I'm not on the EV plan, but my average out the door winter final rate is about $0.13/kwh and my summer rate ends up being more like $0.17/kwh.

SSH into the VPS from the laptop with port-forwading:

ssh -R 8000:localhost:80 mydomain.xyz

Now you should be able to access your local laptop on port 8000 of the VPS. There are a few easy steps you can add if you want to make it a bit more ergonomic or permanent. If you don't want to use an alternate port, you can just forward the port on the VPS with iptables.

iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 8000

If you want the link to be more permanent, I'd suggest using wireguard instead of ssh. That's a little more effort, but not ridiculous.

I suppose it's not fair, but I was disappointed after reading the title, hoping that the article would be an assessment on whether changing the container stacking rule has made a difference yet. There seems to be a fair amount of skepticism that the stacking rule was having a large negative impact, so I was excited to see an assessment of how/if it's made any difference.

It doesn't really feel any different to me than in the 90s. You would get port scanned then too. Keep your software up to date, and keep a reasonably tight config and you won't have any trouble running a basic website. Especially for something like Joey's pizza just make it a static site and you'll barely have to worry about anything.

Ironically, the 5-6 images on the page are really poorly optimized, making the total payload of the page probably 3-4 times as big as it could be.

I can't find the specific comment now, but on previous autonomous driving discussions here, it's been asserted that Tesla (and many other systems) simply can't reliably detect stationary objects at speed. If the systems actually did a naive, "that looks like a stationary object, I'm going to avoid it" they'd barely be able to move in a highway setting.

Are you quoting prices including the cost of the land? Around here there's plenty of new construction being sold at well under $200/sq. ft., and even a fair amount at or under $150 / sq. ft. This is even when you include the price of the land.
