I realize that you're looking for audit style information. Disclaimer: I'm not offering that 😅

You may be interested in automation that helps manage these dependencies and their version. Github offers dependabot as a service for repos on github.com. There's also renovate which is a little newer and I think has a better open source reputation. You can use them to fully automate dependency patching. Though I suspect most teams use these tools to automatically build PRs for a human to review and test.

Ya that's my understanding was well. Which is why I asked the question.

[–] Lodra 13 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Ah I see now. It's about the motivations behind the support. Thanks for the insight!

It's actually quite interesting. Personally, I try to remain neutral on politics but I'm definitely fed a left-leaning social media diet. Within that content, the general reason to support Ukraine is still self centered. "Go beat up the Russian military because they're the bad guys and our cost is super low." The nobility of this support feels like a happy side effect. But the really interesting part is that "funneling money into the military industrial complex" simply isn't focused at all. This is the first time I've considered that aspect.

Ya... That doesn't seem realistic to me. Very few people will "direct their anger" toward someone with power over them. There's always risk in a addressing issues with your employer because they can make your life worse. They can fire you, reduce your income or working hours, become inflexible with scheduling and demands, remove benefits, etc. No, it doesn't always go this way and there are plenty of fine employers. But even if you have a reasonable employer and are free to raise concerns, there's still risk and confrontation.

And what about alternate employers? Restaurant staff can go find a better employer, right? Except, job searches are very difficult and it's near impossible to identify a good employer from a bad one while interviewing. Very real chance that you make a change and end up with more problems.

Don't get me wrong. These hidden fees are 100% bs. It's just not the employee's responsibility to fix things. They usually have zero power in these situations. "Be good to the customer or I won't get a tip. Be good to the employer or I won't be scheduled to work."

Not a single lib will change their minds after hearing this.

Are liberals generally opposed to supporting Ukraine? What opinion are they not going to change?

Able type of good use for worked charging is for devices that don't move much or often. Things like wireless keyboards and mice. Wireless chargers allow you to basically never worry about battery life. And you can hide the cables with a little tinkering.

Lol yeeesssss. It's not exactly the healthiest mentality in my opinion... But I 100% sympathize with you here. "I have energy and opportunity today to fix a thing so let's do whatever I can do today to solve it." Unfortunately, that does lead to some "creative" solutions like a Faraday cage around your modem (ahahaha 😂). But it sometimes you just any solution!

Let it be known that I have provided your 2nd upvote.

Sure. I can get behind that.

But do many people actually mix up the two platforms? I haven't seen it much. The devs and sys admins certainly know that there's a difference between the two. And most end users seem to know that there's a difference. But even if the end users can't identify one platform from the other, I still don't see that it matters. I'm familiar with both nginx and apache... But I also don't shout in public forums that the two tools are not the same.

Why does this matter?

Also, please try using grammar. I had to read that awful block of text like 5 times before I understood what you were saying. And it felt like shouting. Just why??

Pineapple + bacon pizza is delicious. My favorite actually. If you like spicy, add some jalapeño or similar peppers.

While you are definitely right, I and many others use yyyy-mm-dd outside of software. And that's when the T becomes super lame.

[–] Lodra 1 points 1 year ago

Huh. What's bad about the implementation?
