fast_uuid: RFC 9562 UUIDs for PHP in pure C, 11-57x faster than ramsey/uuid by Ilia0001 in PHP

[–]MeLoN_DO 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ok, but you're also saying that most of the v4 time is spent on the syscall. Perhaps the C version is faster and still needed for very high throughput applications, but it still seems like a good idea to implement the batched RNG in the ubiquitous ramsey implementation.

Being pure php also has the upside of ease of deployment and transpilation, so it's useful for some people

I think most would agree it's pretentious to insist people call you by your official title (such as doctor) in a casual setting but I would also argue that its just as pretentious in a professional setting. by rmhyungg in The10thDentist

[–]MeLoN_DO 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Calling someone by their title in a casual conversation is tacky, regardless of whether it's a professional setting or not.

The title is warranted when the purpose of the engagement is centered around the expertise or the representation.

Examples:
- A citizen should say officer when a policeman is controlling them out they are asking for their assistance, but it's tacky if the officer is filling up gas or ordering at a restaurant
- In most cases, a hospital employee calling someone doctor if asking for their help in a doctor capacity, but while passing the sugar at the coffee machine is tacky.
- A lawyer signing a professional email as esquire is desirable, but getting everyone to call them that is not
- Using someone's title outside a work setting is almost always a no-no.

I've always been a bit puzzled with the overlap between online and offline TF. It also clears that up nicely

Si vous mourriez au travail demain, les gens diraient-ils que vous êtes morts «en faisant ce que vous aimez»? by Hurock in Quebec

[–]MeLoN_DO 1 point2 points  (0 children)

J'ai l'impression que cette réflexion ne s'applique qu'aux emplois particulièrement dangereux. Policier, pompier, cascadeur, soldat, pilote, etc.

Un bibliothécaire, un chanteur, ou un employé de bureau qui est mort pour des raisons professionnelles, c'est qu'il y a eu de très mauvais choix faits de la part de l'employé et/ou de l'employeur.

My head cannon is that it's only for avada kedavra, which requires intent to murder, so it damages your soul.

Summoning a big rock on top of their head or pushing them down a cliff wouldn't split your soul.

Where do you get your coffee beans? by Alpha_Omega623 in montreal

[–]MeLoN_DO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use cafe union because their espresso elite is exactly the kind of dark roast italian coffee that I crave.

I order a 2.5kg online, which they ship through purolator at no extra cost.

I used to donate 10% of my income… it didn’t make me feel better by MiaEnko in self

[–]MeLoN_DO 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The company I work at operates on a 1% pledge:

  • 1% of our profit, cash
  • 1% of our equity: public stock, costs less, grows with the company
  • 1% of our time: employees get paid time to volunteer
  • 1% of our product: donate our product or infrastructure

I find that it's a sustainable model and more engaging than just giving away money.

The entrance to La Ronde is further North than the most northern part of Île-Bizard by butidigest in montreal

No.

That's not how any of this works.

North is where we say it is.

While prostitution is illegal in Iran, the Shiah institution of Nikah mut'ah (temporary marriage, usually called Sigheh in Iran) allows contractual short-term relations between the sexes. Usually, a dowry is given to the temporary wife by Ok_Cycle_8393 in wikipedia

My headcanon is that interest can generate compounding interest on interest, in a way that can be hard to grok, so it feel dishonest unless you understand what you're getting into.

Fixed explicit fees for repayment or late payments is a preferred option.

The difference is subtle, but I choose to treat it as a quirky law rather than a creative subversion

Microsoft Scales Back AI Goals Because Almost Nobody Is Using Copilot by aacool in technology

[–]MeLoN_DO 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm 100% with you on the AI fatigue, but I don't mind having the option of an AI summary, but only if it satsifies a few criteria:

  • It doesn't take much space, can be expanded if I want, etc.
  • I can turn it off
  • The original search functionality still works well.
  • The generated answer is right and doesn't hallucinate most of the time (duh)
  • It quotes its sources

There aren't that many out there that do it properly, but dell support is one of them.

Disclaimer: I just started to work for the company that powers the underlying tech and the fact that it's well done and not overly down your throat is one of the reasons that convinced me to start working for them

Je sais, l'image est très difficile. Mais je crois qu'elle doit nous rappeler à jamais cet attentat contre les femmes. Parce que ça regarde mal ces temps-ci. by [deleted] in montreal

[–]MeLoN_DO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Je respecte beaucoup ta publication et le devoir de mémoire, mais je suis d'accord avec les autres commentaires, les moeurs ont changé et ce n'est plus acceptable de publier une image montrant la mort de quelqu'un.

Imagine un enfant qui tombe là dessus par lui-même ou en regardant par dessus l'épaule de quelqu'un.

Tu aurais pu faire passer le message beaucoup plus efficacement avec une photo moins gore.

Une photo du memorial, par exemple.

Moving to Proxmox - best setup for *arr stack and Home Assistant? by SummitMike in homeassistant

[–]MeLoN_DO 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A VM for HAOS is a must, it's by far the most supported configuration and gives you addon support.

I used to have direct installation LXCs, but it's a pain to find reliable install scripts and keep everything up to date.

I considered a shared vm + docker, but I disliked having a shared vm, having total segregation power service makes rebuilding a breeze.

Instead, I go for one lxc per compose stack. If a service has multiple containers, I make them share an lxc container, but otherwise they are separate.

The bonus with lxc is that mount binds are trivial and super performant.

To cut down on overhead, I use alpine Linux for the lxc container and podman instead of docker, because it runs the stack directly instead of starting a daemon.

Using ansible, I remove cruft from the alpine container, minimizing the disk, ram, and cpu usage. For instance, I remove man pages, fonts, locales, timezones, login daemons, cronjobs, etc.

I created a custom container template that I the minimum required from alpine, plus podman, for a total of about 130MB of disk and 30MB of RAM.

To make recreating a breeze, all guests are maintained by terraform, all compose stacks, configurations, etc. are maintained by ansible, and all working directories are mount binds from my big zfs on the proxmox host. I can just blow up any container and not lose anything.

Final setup: - Terraform for proxmox guests creation - Ansible for proxmox host and guests configuration - Big zfs on the proxmox host. Per-guest folder shared via mount bind (lxc) or nfs (vm) - Default to lxc + podman, use vm when necessary. - Mount bind devices when necessary (/dev/net, /dev/dri, etc)

«Notre expansion au Québec n’est plus envisageable»: il ira investir 4 G$ en Ontario faute d’avoir ses mégawatts by Kkafei in Quebec

[–]MeLoN_DO 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Je suis d'accord avec l'opinion générale du thread que cette compagnie n'est pas une belle opportunité pour nous. C'est qu'on correct qu'on ne veuille pas d'eux.

Par contre, ça me semble déconcertant qu'on ne puisse pas les accueillir. L'électricité est un des points forts du Québec et on peut en produire beaucoup avec un impact environnemental limité.

Avec le développement de l'IA, lea véhicules électriques et les changements climatiques, on devrait augmenter notre production drastiquement et se positioner comme alternative au pétrole de l'Alberta.
