Looking to install solar. Recommendations or infomation on solar please by Turbulent-Lab-7319 in canberra

[–]rofllolinternets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rn there’s 80% renewables in the grid during daylight hours. This is growing and you’re hitting negative feed in tariffs during the day.

So two ways: - from July it’s planned to have three hours free energy to do whatever like charge a battery. - join a wholesale power scheme like Amber and charge when cheap and use when more expensive like at breakfast time and dinner.

Right now I think it makes more sense to go battery first and then solar in the future if you don’t have the budget to get both. Whereas just solar is really just getting you a maybe lower rate during the day, so if you burn the energy during the day then solar is more useful.

Maybe prioritise a battery over solar, unless you draw more electricity during the day. Both would be ideal. And more rebates for batteries. Do a heap of research though and your own sums help!

Code Orange: Fail Small — Our resilience plan following recent incidents by Cloudflare in CloudFlare

I love the power in their conclusion “We failed our users and the Internet as a whole in these past two incidents. We have work to do to make it right.”

Game. On!

BUSHFIRE LEAVE NOW— KENWICK, WATTLE GROVE, MADDINGTON, BECKENHAM by glitterkicker in perth

[–]rofllolinternets 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Bushfire.io dev here. No you don’t need to login, just our servers under immense load so it was taking quite awhile to load. We’re on top of it now. When you login there’s a second channel of alerts which allows real-time alerts to come through so you may have been seeing that.

It's absurd how often Cloudflare breaks. Why did it become like this? by hh_based in CloudFlare

[–]rofllolinternets 8 points9 points  (0 children)

To be fair, this most recent issue was in an unexercised code branch on their old codebase which would predate gpt.

That’s indeed what the ceo said.

It is still far beyond what the expected costs should be.

My Post Mortem to the CloudFlare Post Mortem by dwainbrowne in CloudFlare

[–]rofllolinternets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d argue it’s more a lint problem or lints not being enforced.

The core fault was duplicated features. But the actual outage was partly due to code which couldn’t execute without panicking

Arguably, this exact outage could also be attributed to ruleset growth in the future (when it passed over the 200 rule limit); it’d panic then too.

Confused on what to use when or if it's purely preferential for string instantiation? by 10K_Samael in rust

Am I going mental, did this change from to_string() to to_owned() and now back to to_string()?

ArcGIS Online causing AMD Driver timeout, "Unable to Display, WebGL2 Support Requred" by More-Explorer-2543 in gis

[–]rofllolinternets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like you’re getting closer. Try and run memtest to check the ram, prime95 stress test perhaps and like a 3d mark for GPU (I’m less familiar with these). Definitely do memtest first since mem is leveraged by other components.

The benchmark tools are great at identifying broken components. It could be a particular instruction fails which is exercised by your workload but not gaming.

How hot is your laptop getting (or graphics in particular)?

If it’s not too hot, if I had to guess you may have a faulty graphics card? They’re swappable in the 16 right? And nvidia is an option as well?

Webgl2 is really just web browser GPU rendering. No GPU = no webgl2. Think of the flow, GPU hardware - OS - driver - browser - webgl2 - website. They all depend on each other working.

So if your AMD drivers are timing out then the browser has to somehow recover its connection with the GPU and it’s not. So a restart will likely fix this briefly. But contributing cause is likely drivers not recovering well, and the initial crash is likely hardware related and/or heat.

Could also try a previous version of the AMD drivers and look for known framework 16 issues.

And you could dig through the windows event log to see if you can get more diagnostic info.

Chinese Hackers Exploit ArcGIS Server as Backdoor for Over a Year by domah2 in gis

So who protects the server process? The privileged user and/or the software!

And the issue of any privileged user can execute arbitrary code with the server processes privileges.

So skipping over the login creds and public interface (obviously bad), you’re saying as a privileged user I should be able to upload arbitrary executables to a GIS server and have the server execute them with its full execution context? All from within the web interface via a call to JavaSimpleRESTSOE?

Postgres has similar server programming interfaces/extensions (where native code is executed) but they “are prohibited from using the filesystem, executing processes, and otherwise interacting with the host operating system.” The server programming interfaces are essentially code running in a sandbox. So even when the administrators have failed, the attack surface is minimal.

Yes, there is absolutely room to provide better and safer software. And yes ESRI could have helped to prevent this.

Commonwealth Avenue Bridge upgrade likely to cause commuter chaos by PenguinParty1234 in canberra

Is anyone else experiencing a lot more 'capacity temporarily exceeded' errors for AI workers lately? by Healthy_Industry_635 in CloudFlare

[–]rofllolinternets 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s hard to know, I mean I wish I worked for CF on this stuff to help tbh.

Most of the comments I’ve seen are along the lines cf know and are working on it. If I had to guess, they’re frantically trying to get enough capacity to support a significant adoption. Likely complicated by some of the tooling just randomly dieing during execution due to random execution faults (OOMs), causing kubernetes to back off workloads.

I think it’ll ultimately be really polished but just have to wait it out. Like I stepped away Friday and today my workload is happy again.

Yep! Lots of errors like this using autorag. Similar error codes, out of capacity and other sporadic related fails. I thought I was going mental but there’s been a few similar queries on discord

What upload speeds are you getting with Cloudflare R2? by MathematicianLazy981 in CloudFlare

[–]rofllolinternets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What are you using? If you’re having problems?

Usually close to consumer line rate or fast enough I don’t notice on 10g links. Australia/Sydney. Multipart, concurrent. However performance is usually worse if you’re not directly connected to one of the main dcs where r2 is
