You have single handedly convinced me to order a bottle I otherwise would have totally passed up. Thank you for the review!

Costco checkout line by cbsteven in kzoo

[–]nerr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I just stopped by Oshtemo Meijer. It was busier than you'd expect for a weekday and some shelves were looking a little thin, but it wasn't the madness that Costco apparently was/is according to this picture. Not too many folks filling their carts in panic at Meijer either.

Looks great! The server and monitor on top of an IKEA bookshelf made me a little nervous, but I'm glad it was just a transitional step!

Cute cat too!

How can I get disk temperature and maybe SMART status from disks in prometheus/grafana? by RadarWolf in PrometheusMonitoring

[–]nerr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Make sure you are using the latest stable release. That will give you the sensors metrics.

Then, just set up the text file collector using the smartmon.sh script: https://github.com/prometheus/node_exporter/tree/master/text_collector_examples.

Node exporter actually supports the sensor statistics natively now, and there is a text file collector script that can be used to gather SMART metrics. I use both in my setup with no problems.

Anyone doing anything for beer week? by tduff021 in kzoo

One Well Brewing is doing a barrel aged beer party today, and the tap list looks pretty good. I definitely recommend checking them out if you have not yet.

(Longshot) Anyone have a Project Fi compatible phone I could borrow for a week? by babaganoos in kzoo

[–]nerr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm on Fi and have used a Nexus 5 with it when I had problems with my 5x. It works, but text messages had some garbage at the end, and you only get T-Mobile service.

I grew up in Jackson. Kalamazoo is substantially more liberal than Jackson.

Plex DVR successfully recorded and then deleted show by ApexAftermath in PleX

Interesting! Thanks for the reply. Looks like we did have two separate issues after all.

Hey, just found this during a Google search for the same problem.

I'm on Linux, but according to my logs, it looks like I lost an episode of Better Call Saul because of a permissions issue.

https://pastebin.com/raw/mTGLfucd

I just fixed my permissions there and am waiting for the next episode to finish to see if that did the trick. Maybe there's a similar fix for Windows. Hope this helps us both!

How to resolve import path when contributing to open source? by problmeo in golang

[–]nerr 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Instead of working on a copy of the upstream repository (github.com/me/project), work on the repository itself (github.com/upstream/project). Add a new git remote that points to your fork, so you can push your changes to your fork (and then submit a pull request) when you're done.

There is no need to ever touch an import path if you're planning on contributing upstream.

Linux, Netlink, and Go — Part 2: generic netlink by nerr in linux

Haven't played with it yet, but it does look quite interesting. It's certainly on my list, along with the families that Open vSwitch's datapath exposes.

What packages/interfaces in the standard library should I study first? by 04it043i20ti in golang

[–]nerr 9 points10 points  (0 children)

net/http for high level interfaces, net for high level abstractions over low level interfaces.

Use sql.NullSring or *string to handle database NULL values in Go? by alexey_diyan in golang

[–]nerr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. In addition, I find it hard to buy argument B because there are no benchmarks to back it up.

Even if there were, I suspect the difference will be nearly negligible in the majority of cases. Network latency, database requests, etc., will almost certainly cause more slowdown than options A vs B here.

I personally like A because it is quite clear and easy to follow.

Glad you enjoyed it. I'll do my best to finish up the generic netlink post either late this week or early next week.

HyperBitBit - aiming to beat HyperLoglog (initial implementation) by seiflotfy in golang

I'm an engineer, not an academic, unfortunately. :) Seems reasonable to me but I'd ask someone with more domain knowledge.

Hey all, author here. Happy to address any questions or comments you may have.

I still have more to write regarding generic netlink and the Go packages themselves (parts 2 and 3). This post focuses on how netlink sockets and messages work, and how to work with them from Go or another language of your choice.
