I went to setup my iPad, and it had an option to add multiple icloud accounts! I don't know if this is equivolent to user profiles, or just munge all of icloud data like notes, contacts, calendar, apps all together

after using both for the past 5 years, I'd say the main difference between peotry and uv is user experience and documentation. Poetry fought me every step of the way w.r.t. pip migration, venv, poetry updates. uv just worked in these areas, which meant I was updating packages much more frequently, which increased my experience and confidence in uv for a virtual cycle.

When I saw the last dialog box, my first thought was, is this toolbox's primary use for phishing?

Wouldn't taxis make money by picking up passengers at the train station?

From Gilroy to Burbank, it will run at top speed to make up some lost time from the Bay area segment. FWIW the BA segment will run at 110mph.

This seems like a nothing hamburger article. FBI/Corporations agents posing as users in anonymous spaces is not exactly novel.

I found that namecheap's VPC offering was the best price when I shopped around. I needed 2+ cores and 5+ Gi. They sell 4 Cores/6Gi for $15.88 monthly (or save money with quarterly/annual commitments.

It beat AWS's m5a.large's 3 year RIs ($27/mo) & 3 year compute savings plan ($31/mo) (no upfront).

It beat Azure's D2a v4's 3 year RI ($30.75)

It best GCP's e2-standard-2's 3 year committed use pricing ($22/mo)

It beat Digital Ocean's 2 CPU 4Gi Shared ($24/mo)

It beat Vultr's 2CPU 4Gi Shared ($20/mo).

It beat Linode's 1CPU 4Gi Shared ($20/mo).

I just heard about hetzner.com from this post, and it seem like they can beat namecheap's pricing. Hetzner's CPX31 offers 4 CPU / 8Gi for ~$14.77/mo. I might have to check them out

Two days ago, Reddit ids have finally incremented passed the 2,147,483,647, or the maximum range of a signed int32. It seems one of Reddit's subsystems, the one that serves its photo albums broke due to the integer overflow.

Also, AWS lets you ask for a static IP access (EIP) which you don't pay for so long as it is attached to something (an ec2 instance, a load balancer, etc).

I heard the Mayor and SFPD have cleared the homeless in the TL, so they've moved to other parts of the city.

I think America's concerns are 4 fold:

* There is political and economic benefits to projecting American power in Asia and the Pacific and protecting American hegemony.

* China has had recent border clashes with many of its neighbors, including India, and the Philippines.

* China continues to build its man-made islands despite it being deemed illegal, an violating its neighbor's sovereignty and international law.

* Not to mention the numerous human rights violations China commits against its minority citizens and the people of Tibet.

Now, imagine an unchallenged China, potentially subjugating its neighbors by force, including India, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, and the Philippines.

Other regional powers, such as Australia, have taken notice of Chinese ambitions and are taking steps to protect themselves. Arguable, a threatening China is an opportunity for America to strength ties and increase its power in the region.
