How does New Lunix fit into the picture?

Navi from one of the Zelda games. “Hey!”

Me last week when my pi-hole was down

Hey mom, look! I’m in this post!

Fifteen years ago when I was looking, I took vacation or sick days off in order to focus on the search. For in-person interviews, I would take “doctor’s appointment” for the morning or afternoon as that office was pretty lenient on that excuse.

Yes, it is tiring and time-consuming; some things have to get sacrificed - I just chose to sacrifice the tasks at my current job.

As for transferring within the same company, if you are a good employee then “the company” is usually happy to have you stay internal even if it disappoints your current team. There is a much lower cost of an internal hire than external, and since you are still an employee your old team can still reach out for support if needed. In other words: talk to HR and see what their policies are. Your new boss will most surely talk to your current boss so it’s not going to be a secret.

Unraid as I understand it will do that

No, the moment that draw(9) is called, draw(10) goes on pause while draw(9) runs, which pauses when it calls draw(8) … which repeats (or recurses) until draw(0) gets called. Then it returns which returns to draw(1). The draw(1) un-pauses and does the #\n bit and returns to draw(2), which un-pauses and does ##\n and so forth until draw(10) does ##########\n

The Most Dangerous Game in reverse!?

As someone who is not a former sysadmin and only vaguely familiar with *nix, I’ve been able to turn my home NAS (bought strictly to hold photos and videos backed up from our phones) into a home media sever by installing Docker, learning how the yml files work, how containers network, etc, and it’s been awesome.

That’s not how supply and demand work. Low supply doesn’t drive demand higher; demand is usually independent of the supply. However low supply for any given demand will cause prices to increase.

And what makes you think the supply “artificially” low? There’s not a big conglomerate somewhere holding on to a large enough tranche of housing to cause a dip in supply, most likely.

It’s low supply because homeowners with record-low interest rates are less interested in selling and moving, since the monthly payment they pay right now be for less house. It’s a side-effect (or maybe the main effect? I’m not an economist) of the fed increases.

Thanks to everyone who replied, but I gave up on this. Turns out that Synology’s DSM has nginx as part of it, without exposing it as configurable, that commandeers ports 443 and 5000, and any other port seems to direct to 5001(?) which is the desktop manager login. I’ll just remember all the ports or maybe get Heimdall spun up!

People choose $80k cars on 5-7 year notes because “they can afford the payment” thinking that means they can afford the car.

I looked at Heimdall and came to the same conclusion, I could just whip up a static html page of links, or make bookmarks, easier than maintaining another docker.

Ask ChatGPT. It won’t always be correct, but is patient with a new learner, so to speak. You can ask it to explain in more detail, or “is there another way to do that?” and get a different perspective on a solution.

Write it down when you figure something out. Draw arrows to it from some other part you figured out. Scratch it out when you realize you had it wrong and then put the arrows to a new place where you doodle how it actually works. Never look at the notes again.

I am learning Spanish on Duolingo so maybe in 40 years I’ll know enough to count as Latino too!
