@arj @voltagex @directhex I haven't actually worked with any ASRock systems with an on-board discrete power supply (only externally-supplied 12VDC), so unfortunately I'm wholly unfamiliar with the workings of their BMC<->PSU machinery.

@regehr Same thing happened here (Seattle) last week -- shortly before the and-then-it-was-hailing stage it exceeded the flow capacity of our gutter->rain-chain outlet so we just had a waterfall over the edge of the gutter. Probably the hardest I've seen it rain since moving here 3 years ago?

Long post
@regehr @durin42 @dsp I guess this is part of my "nothing in a vacuum" point though. Git didn't come from CVS. It came from BitKeeper and Monotone; and Monotone came from BitKeeper, Aegis, Venti, Linked Timestamps (and a dozen others we knew of); and BitKeeper came from TeamWare which came from SCCS. If you work through the history there's a nearly continuous "X plus an incremental change" pattern to development, not so much dramatic reorgs. (IMO this is true of almost all intellectual history and one of the reasons I think it's both an interesting and frustrating field. People _remember_ large structural changes in how-things-happen as though they are anchored in single inventors and singular moments of invention, but when you zoom in on the history they never do. It's more like "incremental changes pile up to the point where a sea-change in the broader field becomes plausible and then later inevitable".)Long post

@arj Oh neat! I'm pretty sure one of their other trombonists (not the one in that particular video) was in the jazz band at my high school, though we weren't quite in the same band at the same time.

@w8emv @aburka That does sound like sshfs in reverse -- so you could perhaps use sshfs back from the beefy server to your local client (it has configurable caching options available). Though I wonder if perhaps what @aburka is remembering is
cpu
from Plan 9? (Which is of course one of those annoyingly-named things that's nigh impossible to search for, so I don't have a great link to point to at the moment...)

@tedu The combination of the "dive even deeper into hell" copy and a person whose expression seems to suggest that she yearns for the sweet release of death is a real winning combo. Where do I sign?

@glyph @kasperd @gvwilson @vaurora ...and further, the btrfs transaction facility got removed about six years ago (in Linux 4.17). The small trace of it that remains hints at some of the dragons lurking there:
/* trans start and trans end are dangerous, and only for
* use by applications that know how to avoid the
* resulting deadlocks

@dougall Also perhaps noteworthy: the commit that fixes it is a revert of a revert...of a revert. (Hello, semantic satiation.) And further, the commit hashes of second and third commits in that chain of reverts (the most recent two) just so happen to have fourteen prefix bits in common, throwing off my mental tracking of which was which via the first three hex digits when trying to count how many reversions had actually happened.

While Bowie did not, in reality, appear to be terribly interested in the aurora (or show any signs of even noticing it at all, frankly), I like how transfixed by it he looks in these photos.

@cliffle Or for a somewhat different style, Herbie Hancock offers both 'Future 2 Future' and 'Future Shock' (though the latter sounds more like something such a runtime might want to aim to avoid). Definitely not The Police's 1983 album though.
