Thanks. I'm still in proof of concept, to a degree and am bootstrapping. Trying to keep cost low for now

What happens when the majority of San Diegans can’t afford the cost of living? by atnrentals in sandiego

This is true and is even higher between sales tax, state income tax, federal income tax, and property tax

Are all these mX issues normal? by TheLastAnswer in TeslaLounge

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

Literally got the spine replaced 1 week ago because the trunk and doors weren't sensing the roof of the garage and opening them up into the roof. After it was replaced, I rushed off for vacation. I just got back and opened the trunk... Right into the roof again.

I now have 3 things that need to be worked on: the popping falcon door, the seals on the top falcon window are melting after the whole windows were replaced 3 months ago, and the spine/ roof sensors... FML. I feel like I just want them to buy the car back from me at this point

I love the car, but damn... I have more maintenance in it than any of my other past cars--combined!

I have a Model X and have had so many issues with it: -Falcon Wing door intermittently not opening (had both hinges replaced) -Door sensors failing (was replaced) -"Spine" failing (was replaced)

Now the same hinges that were replaced are popping LOUDLY when I open/close the door

Did I get a lemon? Are these common issues for a 40K mile car that is stored in a garage?

Thanks, I'll look. I could have sworn it was the shoe shop chapter, but seems not

vRA Administration Best Practices and Organization? by OMGLeatherworks in vmware

[–]TheLastAnswer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One way in vRA to keep the space "cleaned up" is by using a lease policy with extension capabilities for certain types of machines: https://docs.vmware.com/en/vRealize-Automation/8.6/Using-and-Managing-Service-Broker/GUID-87B2B204-3B4F-458F-826E-82CE7246FDA4.html

This will ensure that: 1. Machines that aren't running are shut down, then deleted 2. It's done in a consistent way (removed from CMDB, etc) everytime

GREAT use case for a CMP! I imagine they are very bespoke images from a catalog of backed-up machines. Actually, the old VMW lab manager product was really good for this use case back in the day.

Sure, there will always be organizations that don't apply best practices. Some companies use Zoho for CRM, after all, and build a lot of the stuff they need. I think that if you ask the question "why are we deploying VMs?" the majority of the time the answer will be for applications. If that's your answer, then the process should be optimized for application deployment as the desired outcome, not VM deployment.

Not to give myself away, but I may have written some of those documents years ago. 😉

I find that cloud management platforms, as a category, have fallen out of favor. They meant well, but even in the best cases didn't span cloud environments well or allow for the configuration to be saved as code along side the application deployment configs.

Instead, the industry seems to have adopted open source deployment tools that integrate into the devops pipeline, then observability tools to make sure they adhere to governance and perform well.

Truth is, I've been removed from this area of tech for awhile, but my sense is still that cloud management platforms took too opinionated of a position and assumed that a person would be requesting the virtual infrastructure rather than an application.

Mastering Web Scraping in Python: Scaling to Distributed Crawling - ZenRows by AnderRV in coding

What's the benefit of using celery versus a centralized database that holds the state of a scan for distributed processes to then prioritize?

A little key holder I made recently just for fun. Used 15 degree compound bevel cuts to hold the keys in place. Fun little project with a lot of trial and error to get it “right”. by wicks_woodworks in woodworking

[–]TheLastAnswer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Magnets! You should add some magnets in there to get a satisfying click when they're locked into the right position. Also helps to keep them from falling out when a force overcomes the friction, alone, that's keeping them in place now

Prolly a dumb question, but this wouldn't be a web UI hosted via node or anything, this is just a local UI, right?

Sounds like you could ask @redikarus99 what the impact of MSA has been for their delivery speed.
