  • I agree with all of this. My comment is meant to refute the implication that not needing to memorize phone numbers is somehow analogous to critical thinking. And yes, internalized axioms are necessary, but largely the core element is memorizing how these axioms are used, not necessarily their rote text.

  • Calculators also don’t think critically.

  • Memorization is not the same thing as critical thinking.

    A well designed test will freely give you an equation sheet or even allow a cheat sheet.

  • Did iOS integration ever get better? I remember a lot of apps constantly needing to get restarted to reconnect to the watch.

  • Brought to you by the 1600x1200 clan.

  • Changing the CRT resolution from 1024x768 to something actually useful. They made us walk back to the computer lab to switch it back.

  • Also a part of another meme where the Babadook is a gay icon ever since Netflix miscategorized the movie.

  • I used to like this girl on my bus in 7th grade who lived in my neighborhood. I remember working on our family garden and thinking wouldn’t it be great if the girl biked over here and saw how hard I work.

    Like this girl who barely knew me would randomly decide to visit my home when I happened to be working in the garden.

    Unreal.

  • I’m a bit surprised that the thigh bubbling up in the frame didn’t cause any z-axis issues. Probably benefitted from being a small tattoo.

  • Thanks for the tips. I'll definitely at least start with mdadm since that's what I've already got running, and I've got enough other stuff to worry about.

    Are you worried at all about bit rot? I hear that's one drawback of mdadm or raid vs. zfs.

    Also, any word on when photoprism will support the Coral TPU? I've got one of those and haven't found much use for it.

  • Very good to know! Thanks.

  • Where I've landed now is

    A) just migrate everything over so I can continue working. B) Migrate my mdadm to ZFS C) Buy another NVME down the road and configure it with the onboard RAID controller to prevent any sudden system downtime. D) Configure nightly backups of anything of import on the NVME RAID to the ZFS pool. E) Configure nightly snapshots of the ZFS pool to another webserver on-site. F) rsync the ZFS pool to cold storage every six months and store off-site.

  • Yeah, I wouldn't dare.

    The fact that I migrated from a 3 drive to 6 drive mdadm raid without losing anything is a damn miracle.

  • I wanted to get something with a lot of upgrade potential, and this was the cheapest option to get my foot in the door with an EPYC processor.

    Also needed two PCIe slots that could do at least 8x for the hba card and Intel ARC for video streaming.

  • What brand of driver?

    Also get one of these, flip the driver over, and integrate the cable into the base.

  • Current hardware is an ancient fanless motherboard from 2016. RAID6 is through mdadm. Four of the drives are through a super slow PCIe 2.0 1x card.

    New motherboard (just ordered) is a supermicro H13SAE-MF which has dual nvme slots and a built in raid controller for them.

  • Doing that every day feels a bit impractical. I already do that every few months.

  • So I’m kind of on the fence about this. I ran a raid boot disk system like 12 years ago, and it was a total pain in the ass. Just getting it to boot after an update was a bit hit or miss.

    Right now I’m leaning towards hardware nvme raid for the boot disk just to obfuscate that for Linux, but still treat it delicately and back up anything of importance nightly to a proper software raid and ultimately to another medium as well.

  • Wouldn't this require the service to go down for a few minutes every night?
