Who uses Canonical LXD?

I never even heard of it.

Yeah sure, but thousands?

I work with regulations because I'm in charge of IT at a small but busy healthcare provider. We're like 3 people who handle ISO certification and NIST compliance, on the side.

Are they all publicly traded? I have this theory that publicly traded companies hire people to inflate their stock value.

Because it's a legit question, like if a companye can lay off thousands of people and still run their service, what were they all doing?

Oh man, we are kindred spirits.

I also feel like there's no point in making a CV in HTML for my website, if I'm going to re-make it in PDF for all the old school application processes out there.

My solution was simply to keep the online CV as simple as possible, so it still looked good in PDF. But it's far from perfect.

I'm from another area of europe with lots of tourism, Croatia, and one trick that works here is to take the town everyone talks about, and go one town over, or two towns over.

Does that work with Hallstatt too? I've never been there.

"this is a game where each block must be placed with purpose"

You lack the hacker mindset if you think you "must" do anything the way it was designed.

I'm sure if they had a bunch of LLM puffery back in 2014 they would have used it.

Most giant Minecraft map projects are automated as much as possible. It would be a real labor of love on the spectrum otherwise, and who can maintain that?

This is a really fun idea, but I went from excited to disgusted in the span of one click.

The first thing that pops up for my city of Malmö is the school stabbing that happened in 2022. They're so rare here, and yet Wikipedia felt I just had to see it.

I'm not going to make stupid feature requests, but it would be cool with a filter for types of Wikipedia articles to show.

I started writing a long rant as a response but I'm not going to because I think it's the wrong forum. Let's just let this post disappear, it's even slightly Off Topic. People seem to think hacker news has to do with security, when it's more about venture capital and startups.

Jews are grandfathered in, muslims are the new enemy.

It's hilarious watching old European neonazis allying themselves with Israel today.

The confusion is palpable.

> This release is a record-breaker on all fronts; it brought in 18,765 non-merge commits from 3,021 developers, 807 of whom were first-time kernel developers.

I'm reading that as many new AI assisted code patches. Not everyone does an obviously bad job at submitting AI assisted code.

Not a criticism, just an observation.

I also think so, but that makes you question the buyer.

Who are these people that want priceless art they can't show anyone?

Remember when Kim Kardashian accidentally took a picture of herself next to some stolen statue? So it was uncovered because of her negligence.

It sort of hints that there's this class of ultra rich people who move in their own stratosphere and look at each other's possibly stolen art without snitching each other out.

A woman near me feeds some grey crows. Before I found that out they would "harass" me and my dog when we walked in the area and I didn't understand why.

Then one day I saw the woman walk her 4 dogs and feed these crows. Then I started putting it together, she has smaller dogs, about the same size as mine.

So these crows, presumably, had seen me and my dog about 2km away from where she normally walks her dogs, and came over for food. My dog just thought they were something to chase.

I'll never forget when they autorun everything on an USB. Good times.
