I think they’re calling it an organ for the supposed benefit of the reader (and for the shock value of the term “synthetic organ”) because it responds to certain gut conditions in a way that would suggest a more complex functionality than a layperson would attribute to bacteria. It’s not actually an organ.
Yeah, my education is in electrical engineering and industrial automation. I’ve grown up using computers and like to learn, but I’ve never had any formal education on the subject except for high school programming classes, an intro CS course using Scheme, and a Python 3 bootcamp on Udemy. Everything else that I know is just from hands-on experience and using a search engine.
For hosting services and managing my domain, only a basic understanding is necessary, so I don’t feel held back by it. I do wish that I could contribute to my favourite projects, though.
I know, dude. It’s an inside joke with a friend, if you care.
Either way, like under $2000 would have bought them the storage necessary to keep these backups on-site. They still would’ve needed another backup solution for redundancy purposes, but this wouldn’t be the huge issue it seems to be now, where the data is sort of in limbo.
I’m not completely wrong, it’s a joke! Isn’t it funny how I got all of my facts incorrect? Upvotes, please!
No, but if you separately pay me $15/month, I’ll post in a different community every day about how you’re paying them €10/month.
Tatarstan is on the opposite side of Russia, by the way. Where many ethnic minorities live, such as those that the name implies, the Tatars.
Interesting target on part of the Ukrainian miitary since it’s generally just civilians in the area.
Yeah, it’s not my car. I borrow it. Nice attempted gotcha, though.
Thanks for the brilliant ideas that I’ve certainly never thought of.
And then what? I get fired because I can’t get to work since my city’s transit sucks? Train and bus lines don’t magically appear at will.
I mean… you could just ignore it.
The mods of this community have been banned from the instance that the community is on. Kinda weird!
It’s both. Is it that hard to believe that the second-rate students might need something the first-rste students don’t have (like English proficiency or knowledge of American industry) in order to stay competitive?
He’s already been linked to childhood animal abuse, so it didn’t even take 10 years. Someone who worked for his school (I forget who exactly) spoke about it a few years back.
I’ve had a job where the whole thing was removing dirt and nails from demolished barn boards. Genuinely zero skill involved, just a lot of time spent doing the same thing.
I guess you need eyes and hands? And the ability to show up. Those don’t feel much like skills though.
If you didn’t learn anything from a TIL post, you can just keep scrolling. I didn’t know this fact and I was on Reddit for 6 years, until the API crap. Karma isn’t real; if you have a concern about the community’s quality, message a mod.
Are you only allowed to post a link once or something?
I have had a couple of instances where I updated a package through apt and those updates resulted in a binary which crashed on launch or a configuration/database error that prevented the binary from being launched, so it does happen.
The fix was relatively simple and I had it working again in minutes, but I think it’s still worth consideration as a potential point of friction, especially for users who don’t have the ability or desire to fix their own systems.
As an aside, I think you should want to know how to fix your system, but I don’t think it’s unreasonable for non-tech people to be able to install an OS they don’t have to periodically tinker with to get installed programs to launch correctly every time with no fuss.
For so many people, tinkering is like washing the dishes and they simply don’t want to do it; an immutable system is like the dishwasher of tech purely in the sense that using it means that less effort is required from the user. I wouldn’t expect my non-tech wife to think Linux From Scratch would be a fun learning project (like I do), we are all different.
Hope this comment isn’t too tangential, I’m trying as a person to be less rigid in my thinking about how people do things because I think it holds us back and, really, it’s a testament to the value of open source software that we have all of these options available. I wouldn’t want there only to be one way to run Linux.
I am thinking that they wouldn’t define that as a broken package, since I would consider that a bug that would need to be addressed in the next release. I would expect a broken package not to be able to run rather than simply to have a broken function.
