To expand on this, CircleCI lets you easily ssh into a run so you can debug it as if you were debugging it on your own machine. I cannot tell you how many times this has saved me countless hours because you don't need to wait for your changes to build and then subsequently fail repeatedly, drastically shortening the iteration cycle.
I was directly replying to the parent's question of whether there were any uses of SGX that were not anti-consumer. Signal's use of it, is very much in line with my thinking of what constitutes pro-consumer.
I agree though, we're all getting slightly off topic
Application level connection pools are not enough if you're using something like k8s and have your "application" running across hundreds of pods, each with their own application level connection pool. pgBouncer helps tremendously in that situation because all those pods will use a single pool. We cut down avg open connections dramatically by doing that from over 1000 to less than 400.
Ontario, Canada is even further ahead, having eliminated coal completed by 2014. They botched much of it, with setting up bad contracts, which led to a lot of wasted taxpayer dollars. Even still, it shows it's possible and the outcome was fantastic. Complete elimination of smog days and far lower incidence of asthma cases.
Why are they still using Killer WiFi NIC's on these things. They are absolutely terrible. We have a bunch of XPS 13 and 15's at our office (9360's up to 9570's) and every single one of them has random connectivity problems on our office WiFi and people's home networks.
We've had to replace all of them with Intel 9260's and the problems instantly disappear. I don't know how this is not a customer support nightmare for them, and why they continue using them given the relatively low cost of the Intel cards.
They put "suggestions" for 3rd party apps right in the start menu. There's no way they're intelligently suggesting those apps either because they pop up almost immediately after a fresh install, and are often about games.
Magisk (Android root utility) has the ability to hide itself very well. Google Pay and most, if not all, banking apps are not able to detect it. It is a cat and mouse game for sure, but so far the Magisk developers are keeping ahead of that curve.
AVX code is known to make the CPU run way hotter than usual. Perhaps that caused throttling that made general code running at the same time, or within a short span thereafter, perform worse?
That's still not clear. It doesn't say they will start charging for original quality shots taken before 2020. To me it just seems like if you want to keep storing original quality shots taken AFTER 2020, then you will have to pay for that going forward.
That's insidious if that's the case. I (and probably) many others took it to mean that photos taken through that date would enjoy unlimited storage permanently, not that they would start charging after that date. Would be nice if we could get some clarification.
