Hello, large swathes of AWS EC2 Frankfurt. Welcome to my DROP policy. Sorry it's come to this.

If you're setting up some kind of CI farm and it's configured to clone from git.kernel.org, STOP. Set up your own damn mirror.
There's not enough RAM in the world to survive 120 shallow clone request for stable.git that all come within 2 seconds of each other, especially when they are all coming from a bunch of AWS IPs. I'm sending abuse reports, so hopefully whoever is doing this will get the message that it's not OK.

I confess, I've never looked at my phone and thought "you know what it could really use? More moving parts."
But what do I know.

I see some world leaders will say anything in exchange for some deeply discounted Russian oil. There is only one way to achieve peace in Ukraine -- to restore it inside the internationally recognized 1991 borders, force the aggressor to pay reparations for all death and destruction it brought, and make sure that Ukraine is part of a strong alliance capable of deterring any future threat from Mad Pu.

Hoo boy, another discussion about how mailing lists are terrible and therefore must be replaced by a single point of failure system with non-exportable archives.

Bugbot is now able to watch git repositories for bugs being mentioned and properly process Closes: trailers.

The self-assured tone with which ChatGPT gives you demonstrably wrong info is truly something. Trust the IT industry to come up with "mansplaining as a service."

Totally forgot that I registered "fauxpas.guru" just for the joke of starting a fediverse instance at "social.fauxpas.guru".

I've been doing this whole ops thing for decades, and still I fail to check if maybe the application is slowing down because it's hitting unofiles and is starved of file descriptors. 🤦

Never thought I'd say this, but TOML is so much saner than YAML for config files. If you're starting from scratch and need a config file for your app, pick TOML.

Who knew that fixing a dishwasher could break a PostgreSQL instance.

Well, I think it's clear that we need a faster DB instance if we want to avoid getting hugged to death every time Linus posts something.

LLMs will make our jobs obsolete, you mark my words. If you don't believe me, just look at millions of truck drivers who are out of work due to the rise of self-driving cars -- just as it was predicted 10 years ago.

Nothing like spending the first really warm day of spring in your basement watching a faraway server fail to boot.

I've got the power! But there was also a loud boom, followed by an ominous flicker. It's still on, but I'm wondering if there's a blown transformer box somewhere nearby.
