RAID definitely does not count as part of your backup, it’s a helpful thing, but the entire array can fail. You still need minimum 2 other copies of your data to be considered safe

In a raid? No. A drive that has an application copy it every night or something? Yes.

Remember that cloud backups is the last location, the 1 in 3-2-1. You should have two local copies already on top of your cloud copy

You’ve waited now 7 years - waiting a bit longer won’t hurt - but then again if you wait for the next one there will probably always be another one after that.

That’s what I thought was happening, There’re no other system things that need to do?

Agreed. Needs to be a required mount in fstab. System won’t even start then if the mount fails, docker always has access

Google has been floundering since chatgpt came online. Their press releases all sound the same to me. “We haven’t had real competition for so long that we got complacent, and now we’re not really sure what to do”

Peak programming

Iv come to loathe the “pythonic way” because of this. They claim they wanted to make programming easier, but they sure went out of their way to not follow conventions and make it difficult to relearn. For example, for me not having lambdas makes python even more complex to work with. List operations are incredibly easy with map and filter, but they decided lambdas weren’t “pythonic” and so we have these big cumbersome things instead with wildly different syntax.

That’s a different problem. The original question was when would a competent dev use an LLM.

I mean, it’s not like it ships it to production. You can read code it writes and modify it if you don’t like it, or choose not to use it.

I use it daily. I wouldn’t blindly trust code it writes, but it offers alternative solutions and when I’m hunting for a but it’s very good at giving me ideas of what might be wrong at a glance. Terraform and infra too it can catch nuances i may be missing.

Their site leaves a bit to be desired, but they do have PDF versions along with many others it will scrape in

We call this a whoopsie daisy.

Stack overflow has always been ego and arrogance. Personally I’d love to see a federated version, we all host shards

damn I’ve been out of the loop on that one for a while! Agreed, I set up Immich and it’s pretty much a drop-in replacement now

Did they really kill off free photo backup? That’s so incredibly shitty, they even compressed them!

Yeah, op didn’t say you couldn’t opt out of it. It’s that they’re doing it at all. Every year they ask for a little bit more info, chipping away, making it harder and more obscure to opt out. That’s enshittification.

I bought a Plex pass for 90 or something. I officially dropped Plex about 4 months ago now. For 90 bucks I got something like 8 years out of it. I’ll call that a win, I don’t feel like I wasted my money, I don’t feel like I overpayed. Just moving on now.
