Pay gap between bosses and employees is totally fine, UK bosses say.

then I’m ready

Then WE’RE ready, comrade.

Exactly what I was going to suggest. My mom had ankle surgery earlier this year and used one for a few weeks while recovering.

Go on…

That’s the neat thing, Crowdstrike bypassed the rigorous testing process to get Kernel software updates signed by Microsoft by having the part that was tested and signed by Microsoft load another update file. Still unclear how Crowdstrike missed it before releasing it though.

This is a pretty good break down of what happened by a retired windows dev. Including how software operates between Kernel and user zones. The break down of what he thinks happened is about 6:40.

He’ll drag you to his layer if you don’t keep dirt under your pillow.

Fend off the dirt man.

They also can’t explain what exactly “wokeness” is.

Just tested in the console, it gives an illegal character error and gives you the line number.

The actual news release has a bit more information.

The team discovered that a single chip responsible for storing a portion of the FDS memory — including some of the FDS computer’s software code — isn’t working. The loss of that code rendered the science and engineering data unusable. Unable to repair the chip, the team decided to place the affected code elsewhere in the FDS memory. But no single location is large enough to hold the section of code in its entirety.

So they devised a plan to divide the affected code into sections and store those sections in different places in the FDS. To make this plan work, they also needed to adjust those code sections to ensure, for example, that they all still function as a whole. Any references to the location of that code in other parts of the FDS memory needed to be updated as well.

Pretty sure the people glorifying it are the same ones screaming about taxes are theft.

Not super tricky, they’re using ChartJS and with some very minimal tweaks to the config (aka changing “pie” to “bar”) the data would look like this!

edit: does look a bit awkward due to the huge difference in values. A logarithmic scale would look better, but is much more confusing.

Clearing.

This is what got me to finally leave Facebook. The amount of times I felt the need to fact check something a friend or family member posted was getting out of hand. Most of the time they’d ignore me or delete my comment.

I might have to take up cross stitch so I can frame this quote to put in my kitchen.

Water used to cool data centers is either consumed, meaning it evaporates into the atmosphere via the data center’s cooling towers or discharged, as industrial wastewater, usually to a local wastewater treatment plant.

It can’t just be dumped into a river, has to go to a sewer treatment plant.

edit: They do recirculate it, but it eventually needs to be replaced. And some facilities have treatment plants on site, so doesn’t necessarily needed to go to a sewer treatment plant.

These cooling systems remove and release all of the heat produced inside a data center – from servers, IT equipment, and mechanical infrastructure – into the outside environment, through a cooling tower that uses a water evaporation process.

It goes outside and eventually becomes rain.

Some water is used in humidifiers, there are also systems that use direct evaporative cooling where the water is eveporated to cool the hot air. There are probably other ways the water is lost.

AWS’ preferred cooling strategy for its data centers is known as direct evaporative cooling. In this system, hot air is pulled from outside and pushed through water-soaked cooling pads. The water evaporates, reducing the air’s temperature, and the cool air is then sent into the server rooms.
