permalac··on Software I’m thankful for (2021)
Read it.
permalac··on Ask HN: Inherited the worst code and tech team I have ever seen. How to fix it?
Nobody mentions Monitoring.

Ensure the beast is monitored, like staring with the basics, cpu, disk space and so on.

Then all goes to version control. Then changes can not be done in production, you need cicd, just build one step at a time.

Do not aim for perfection, just concentrate on having a framework(mentality) of continuous improvement.

You been given the opportunity of testing all your skills in a thing that "works" (makes money), you just need to find the metrics of where the money comes from and how to maximise it.

Pareto principle can be of help when making decisions.

permalac··on How should we handle an over-productive employee?
Care to explain?
permalac··on NASA selects SiFive and makes RISC-V the go-to ecosystem for future missions
What debacle? Is it dead?
permalac··on Email doesn't suck – it's email clients that need improving
I'm surprised nobody is mentioning mailmate. I've used for a year now, life changing.

It just works.

Write markdown, send html.

I just write and becomes nice stuff.

My previous boss would hire that person, and when unable to perform then promote them.

My god, I'm on cellphone and did not see the costs at the bottom. Apologies.
permalac··on Show HN: I created a browser automation tool
Do you have a cost plan?

I've invested so much time in similar things just to not be able to afford it...

This is the attitude. Yeah.
permalac··on Japan's NTT to begin remote work as norm for 30k employees
But if you work for them in Barcelona the salary is still pretty bad.
permalac··on Shottr – macOS Screenshot Utility
I've not found anything for mac as powerful.

The after tasks. The 'capture last region and paste to docx without moving focus.'

permalac··on How to make decisions like a poker player
Not OP.

I've seen many people getting a 3 year contract without having a clue of what they had to do, just buzz words.

Public sector

They will burn everything so the SEC has nothing to stand on.

Customer service persona, I like it.

permalac··on CatalanGate: Spyware operation against Catalans using Pegasus and Candiru
Only one of them control the state, and that is and has always been Castilla.

This may be a technical forum, people can Google it up and do some deep research.

permalac··on CatalanGate: Spyware operation against Catalans using Pegasus and Candiru
Like just rebranding their fascist tribunal? In the same building with the same people, but one day they become Democrats.

Amazing story.

Also, they have a tribunal that has two powers, and another one that decides if money has been well spent, if they decide otherwise you get to pay with your properties.

Amazing country, and is part of EU.

permalac··on CatalanGate: Spyware operation against Catalans using Pegasus and Candiru
They could be using such database, in that case they would be involved.
permalac··on Monkeys can sense their own heartbeats
I hope so, otherwise I will need to see a doctor
permalac··on What does “shitty job” mean in the low-skill, low-pay world?
Sometimes I forget that those 6 figure jobs require one living in US, then I remember and I'm a bit happier with my not 6 figures job.
permalac··on GNU Parallel
I do the same, I even have a command that tells me which tmux panel I'm in so I can ssh to many servers at once from tmux.

However, when you just want to execute the same command : https://clustershell.readthedocs.io/en/latest/tools/clush.ht...

They fell and desintegrwte.
permalac··on Moscow police officers stop people, request their phones to read their messages
Descending?
permalac··on Nearly a third of TV ads play to empty rooms
My family is also Spanish/catalan and the TV is always off, only turned on when seeing something together.

Mi wife family, just some km away, they have the TV on during all they long, it freaks me out. My toddler is the one that shuts it down for them, because he 'can not hear them' if TV is on.

permalac··on Heart-disease risk soars after Covid, even with a mild case
I've not read the article, but others are using it to present the opposite opinion.

Could you elaborate? I'm actually interested more in your opinion than on the mainstream one.

permalac··on Heart-disease risk soars after Covid, even with a mild case
I love when someone understands and summarizes the scientific method in so feew words. Thanks.
permalac··on IBM’s Watson Health is sold off in parts
IBM has acceptable tape systems. Would be nice if they did not keep changing tape buffer sizes/times and other conditions without properly advertising the changes, but LTO is bad at scale so they have that going for them.
permalac··on Launch HN: ContainIQ (YC S21) – Kubernetes Native Monitoring with eBPF
Agreed.

Our employer does not invest on this kind of tools, so when a free version does not exist for us the tool does not exist.

We would be happy to provide usage metrics and reports, our company is full open source and open data, and we work/invest time on open projects when possible.

permalac··on Ask HN: Show your failed projects and share a lesson you learned
Congrats. Worth the effort?

Any lesson to share?

permalac··on Something special is happening in Barcelona
Being in power thanks to Manuel Valls, who was running for a reactionary far right party, did not help on her reputation.

Also, she is leading the highest amount of council driven evictions, which does not help either. (for context she reached office on her first time thanks to the anti eviction associations.)

She is green, yes.

But she is over promising and under delivering.

permalac··on Kanidm: A simple, secure and fast identity management platform
Could you share the setup you ended up using?

In my institution I have to replace a long lived solution that even suports a nis domain, and I feel a bit overwhelmed.
