I would say knowing linux basics should probably come _before_ identifying as a "hacker"

Personally I've avoided using any Synology-specific functionality. It's not as transparent and seems kind of brittle. I feel like that's going to pay off because after a couple of years I'm pretty sure I'm going to switch to an open source solution instead, and I won't have to look for alternatives to systems I'm already using.

Cockatoo navigator: Hey, that's a neat-looking planet we just passed, let's dismantle it for fun.

Org-level admin requirements are what stopped me from pursuing my own solution. Hopefully your approach will have better luck.

Surely `rq` can't be far behind.

It may not have happened to you yet, but someday you'll see a date somewhere other than this post.

Most people have never had to replace the starter in their automobile, but the ones that have sure are glad it's not spitefully welded in place just to make things difficult for them.

This is usually the part of the discussion where we get to have a laugh about "private courts".

Sexy URL, sucks for you if anyone actually clicks it and/or examines your profile as a "Defense industry consultant".

Just to be clear, your answer as someone invested in the defense industry to the question of "What military role does the F-35 fill in the modern world that unmanned drones can't?" is to say:

>A mission flown for the purpose of detecting targets and coordinating or performing attack or reconnaissance on those targets. Strike coordination and reconnaissance missions are flown in a specific geographic area and are an element of the command and control interface to coordinate multiple flights, detect and attack targets, neutralize enemy air defenses and provide battle damage assessment

Forgive my ignorance, but are you saying that we basically need a trillion-dollar endeavor to develop manned fighters which have just barely caught up to the existing technology to go pick fights abroad that we could have already been doing?

What new threat are we facing here, other than a slowing of contractual dollars?

That's absolutely true, and it definitely matters when you're designing something that will see productive use for the benefit of the people paying for it, but it's not obvious that that's the case here.

Hear me out...what if we could get both contracts?!

He's a former Java developer who is now accustomed to Scala, obviously he prefers that to Kotlin because it's what he knows...

What military role does the F-35 fill in the modern world that unmanned drones can't?

> When the F-35 debuted, it was inferior to the F-16 and other 4th generation aircraft. However, its potential has been steadily unlocked by the engineers, and several years ago, it surpassed the F-16’s capability.

Sounds like the national defense equivalent of rewriting your website from scratch in $LATEST_WEBSHIT_FRAMEWORK. Sure, it's a worse product, but just imagine how great it _could_ be if we halt development of the working version and spend a trillion dollars making the new one work. See? It's better! And the customer is paying hand over fist, so everyone wins.

The next logical step from paying SodaStream for weirdly proprietary CO2 is to simply buy a real tank of CO2 and a bottle-top adapter and make your own. I'm not sure how that could be "disrupted" without carving out a niche for a slightly-more-convenient but equally unnecessary middleman.
