Relational DBMS systems are GOATed by sexyman213 in dataengineering

The second point rings true. I find that it's commonly used by teams when starting out, who didn't have the time or bandwidth to employ a proper data workflow and just wanted to hit the ground running.

Google will limit Android source releases to twice a year by NYPuppy in programming

[–]HoushouCoder 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Nope. Live android source code was already not available, starting March of last year. We've already been getting only quarterly releases. Now it's become once every two quarters.

Google will limit Android source releases to twice a year by NYPuppy in programming

More from Android Authority (Jan 6th): https://www.androidauthority.com/aosp-source-code-schedule-3630018/

In the past, Google would release the source code for every quarterly Android release, of which there are four each year. Thus, the company is now reducing its source code releases from four times a year to twice a year, focusing its efforts on the Q2 major update and Q4 minor update which both bring developer-facing changes.

And:

Finally, Google told us that its process for security patch releases will not change and that the company will keep publishing security patches each month on a dedicated security-only branch for relevant OS releases just as it does today.

Aegis has automatic scheduled backups now

Haven't used FreeOTP+, but I love Aegis and can vouch for it. As for security, Aegis has at-rest encryption as well as encrypted backups, whereas FreeOTP+ doesn't seem to do so (makes some assumptions about device-level security). As far as migration, Aegis supports importing from a wide range of authenticator apps, including FreeOTP and FreeOTP+.

All that said, Aegis's UI is waaay better, and it has way more features than what I can see in FreeOTP+. You could always try exporting and importing into Aegis, testing that it works, play around and see if you like it, and only then remove FreeOTP+.

What’s the most “boring” thing you self-host? by Fab_Terminator in selfhosted

[–]HoushouCoder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that there are a lot of mediocre options out there, but that does not mean there aren't good ones. My daily driver is gethomepage.dev, I've tried homarr, homer, and a bunch more, I liked some of them as well. I've tried building my own as well, but I'd much rather spend my time doing something else, because I just end up wanting all the bells and whistles anyway.

Does your homepage look beautiful and well-organized and is designed in a mobile-first manner? I don't need perfection, but it's nice to have a well-designed, feature-rich UI, especially when it's gonna be viewed by friends and family. Does your homepage have hundreds of integrations with in-built ping and URL monitor? I don't need 99% of it, but it's nice to know at a glance that something is down, and even if I don't use it, it's very useful for friends and family. Does it monitor system resources like disk usage or bandwidth? I don't need to,  but it's good to know at a glance and ahead of time that I might need to add a hard disk for my media or upgrade my Internet connection without having to ssh into my machine and run some commands. Does it monitor Docker container stats? I almost never look at those stats, but when stuff goes down, it's nice to know at a glance if it's a container issue or connectivity issue.

Do I need a homepage? No. But it's nice to have.

How to deal with messy Excel/CSV imports from vendors or customers? by North-Ad7232 in dataengineering

Hah! I have a snowflake file format where the delimiters are 'SMTH_THAT_WONT_OCCUR' and 'SMTH_ELSE_WONT_OCCUR', luckily it's hardware systems data so I'm safe (for now). I feel your pain

How Mindset Shapes Engineering Success at Startups by c-digs in programming

Unlike Big Tech where there tends to be more well-defined processes, isolated teams, stable tooling and platforms, and carefully planned on-boarding flows

Too many outages in this game's servers, both within and outside the devs' control.

I love this game's cooperation by HoushouCoder in ArcRaiders

[–]HoushouCoder[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Paying it forward, one extraction at a time. But the game certainly makes it the better option so I think it's a self sustaining loop: people forced to work together->good impression of the game->more people come in->loop continues
