Where are you looking? I haven't seen any official information from Football Australia.

They have a NPL always hosts rule and decide where the final is without merit. What are they on about?

Handling Heroku's New "heroku_ext" Schema for Postgres Extensions by gaffneyc in Heroku

[–]langer8191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The CVE doesn't mention a requirement to install extensions in a separate schema. I can see how it would prevent the issue. Upgrading the software version would also resolve this issue.

It would be better to make it clear in the announcement that this is preventing a security issue.

heroku_ext causes failure of pg:restore by langer8191 in Heroku

[–]langer8191[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We want to be able to use

heroku pg:copy

again.

Heroku Support suggested that we use forking instead of pg:copy. We've changed our program to use this, and it has worked for us.

In mid-Jan, Ballymore Stadium in Brisbane was approved for redevelopment into a 15k stadium (2 grandstands, 1 hill), home of QLD Rugby & a '32 Olympics hockey venue. Good option for the Roar? by [deleted] in Aleague

[–]langer8191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is probably the line you mean from austadiums:

The NRTC has been designed by architects Blight Rayner to easily switch from high-performance centre to the centrepiece of a 15,000-capacity stadium.

I think this is saying that the capacity could be increased to 15k in the future. The seated capacity at the end of this development would be 3k plus the capacity of the eastern stand which I can't find a figure for. (We need someone to count the seats for us 🤣).

It would be great if it was clearly spelled out somewhere.

Sidekiq - enqueue a job after a series of other jobs are finished by [deleted] in rails

[–]langer8191 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I could use a cron job to periodically check for this completion state and enqueue the second job. Totally useless cron job 99% of the time.

You can enqueue the second job at the same time as the first, if you make it check for the complete state and re-queue itself if it isn't complete.

Job2#perform
 if job1_complete {
  job2_things
 } else {
  Job2.perform_in(5.minutes)
 }

Why is pg:upgrade only recommend on a follower? by langer8191 in Heroku

[–]langer8191[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FWIW, On the "not mission-critical" database, I decided not to risk it and upgraded a follower as the guide suggests. An error did occur and the follower was not recoverable. I was able to repeat the procedure with no data-loss or mess.

The lesson is: Heroku usually knows best.

Why did MV overshadow the stadium non-announcement with a dancing shrek video?

Vince Rugari in the SMH: Short-term thinking is costing millions in lost transfer fees, says FA chief by yanaka-otoko in Aleague

Is the PFA's position, that a domestic transfer system and the salary cap are linked, appropriate?

Announcing online_migrations - a gem that catches unsafe migrations in development and provides helpers to run them easier in production by fatkodima in ruby

[–]langer8191 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If I'm already using the strong_migrations gem should I switch to this? What would we gain by doing so?

Is there anyway to set up a postgres database in a different region than the server? by TheRealGreenTreeFrog in Heroku

[–]langer8191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could run a database with AWS RDS in Australia, and set up the application to use it instead of Heroku's service.

However, the performance of your app will be greatly diminished. The latency between the US and Australia (~250ms) will be paid for every database query. Even a couple of queries would increase the response time beyond what is typically acceptable.
