@julie absolutely not a waste of time in of themselves, and also think about how many people got started in computing because of them. In conversation from social.kernel.org permalink -

Ok, I'm close to giving up on running my own mail server. Spammers are winning the arms race vs. small mail servers.

Wow. #Rust is an unserious language. Unless you bend over backwards to fight the compiler and avoid the standard library, you cannot write code that doesn't try to terminate the calling process on arbitrary error conditions. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43297487
Terminating the process is never an appropriate action in a library. The library has no way to know its caller's uptime constraints. Libraries should only return error codes to callers. Only applications can decide whether to bail out or not.

The results are in, with 18 votes. I kind of like bsky but not seeing a critical mass of people in my areas of interest.
If you answered other, please feel free to explain.
In honor of this landslide vote, here's a photo of my latest tinkering: making pipecap filters for an 11 GHz RF multiplier (using the W1GHZ board & design). I'll use brass M3 tuning screws once some arrive from McMaster-Carr, although I'd be interested to see if they are very different to stainless steel. And yes, I had to order them online after not finding any metric brass fasteners locally. Why not use SAE screws? Standard metric screws have much higher TPI, even more than fine-thread SAE. This will provide better mechanical stability & finer tuning, but then again, I'm not building a spaceship here, so 🤷

Captured with a DSLR and 24mm shifting lens (vertically shifted just a bit) on a hot day in the Mojave desert.
This is a simple composition, characteristic of the early 20th century Precisionist school. There's little in the frame that isn't essential. The pylons, wires, and tracks all converge at a vanishing point at the edge of the frame, suggesting, but not showing, a more expansive network of wires, tracks, and, for better or worse, human dominance over nature.

@corbet @pluralistic the main question I have is whether this administration will end at the end of the term. If so, we'll probably be ok. In conversation from social.kernel.org permalink -

Weekend tinkering: finally made enough room for a microscope on my bench and looked at small things. The chip of interest is 0.7mm wide: a ~60 GHz amplifier.

Understandable, but I'm guessing this will cause a lot of breakage for a while & train people to click through browser security warnings. Thoughts?In conversation from social.kernel.org permalink Attachments
