@remi said in Help Bites:
But this still helps me: knowing that this is how HTTP servers work means I understand why grpc would behave in the same way, and that it might truly be something that doesn't exist rather than me looking in the wrong place.
For HTTP—I don't really know gRPC—there is no limit at the protocol specification level, though there is a standard error code for exceeding it. But any practical server does need such limit to avoid wasting all resources on a broken or malicious request. So the idea is that you simply configure it to something that is large enough for your use-case.
And configure it I usually have to, because the nginx proxy default is something like 100 kB, which is enough for some forms, but obviously not for an API server that needs to receive some non-trivial data.
@Gern_Blaanston There is an implied bias that we're explicitly shown where Something Is Happening and that becomes Interesting.
I imagine that for many ships and missions it is duller than dishwater. It's kind of like Shaw puts it early in Picard season 3, when he points out that while he loved reading about Picard and co and their adventures, he liked things by the book. There's a fair amount of anecdotal evidence that when you're not the flagship of the fleet pushing at the frontiers of everything and arguing with demigods, it's actually pretty boring by comparison because things don't go wrong.
O'Brien came into his own going from the Enterprise to DS9 where his skills at making shit just work came into the foreground.
@Spectre said:I dunno, sounds pretty amusing to me. Too bad political correctness always gets in the way.
This really isn't a political correctness issue; the show was abysmal.
I heard about it a while ago, and was intrigued by the ludicrous idea. Found it on YouTube, watched it, and was disappointed.
@Nelle said:we have something similar, it mostly catches tests from acunetix or the n- thing (i cant seem to remember the name of the linux intrusion testing app) ... I use mod_security on Apache to filter suspicious emails, but the majority of sites I host don't tend to be coded with such schoolboy errors. Some are still exploitable (Wordpress, etc) but I patch when I can.Unlike this kind of URL
@blakeyrat said:@MascarponeRun said:The world was a very big place back then, but the Meso-Americans were particularly isolated,
The hell? They had TWO ENTIRE CONTINENTS to trade with.No (or at least, not much) sea travel - one of the predominant means of long-distance transport in those days. No horses, either. No caravan routes overland to the rest of the world. They weren't completely isolated, but much more so than Europe, Africa, or Asia. They had little regular contact much north or south of their area, and none at all with any of the really different cultures on other continents.

I am sitting with the build master reviewing the turnover, build and deploy process.She mentions that there are a lot of warnings in the build, unused variables, code paths that will never be reached. and other stuff, basically one per file. And I am like, why don't you reject the turnover, why would you ever install this on your server? And she is loud, and she says why don't YOU PEOPLE fix the warnings! I am like, way out loud, YOU PEOPLE? WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU PEOPLE? Funny cause I am like the only white boy there. She meant devlopers of course. Do us a favour, flunk the damn release. She is not doing any one any favours by letting it slide.

TDWTF Forums? Outlook email client? I could be wrong, but are you confusing a tautology with an oxymoron? An oxymoron in IT would be something like "Structured COBOL", or "source file management" or "release control". ("Advanced BASIC" is a pseudo-oxymoron.)

@DrBen said:So you're not actively EMTing now? Too bad, we need more good EMTs. And yeah, you could eat nothing but bananas constantly and wouldn't be able to actually get hyperkalemic. The father of a family friend was stuck in the jungle with no supply waiting for a boat home from the Philippines at the end of WWII, and he and his buddies had nothing to eat but bananas for something like two weeks. They did all get diarrhea, but other than that they were fine. I'm pretty sure that if you're healthy (no kidney problems), your kidneys will deal with the excess potassium. If you are unwell (say, massively dehydrated, or some other renal issue), your kidneys may not excrete the extra potassium, causing the hyperkalemia.
@toshir0 said:So it's another case of « Law Of Old'd » I guess.Law Of Old'd : No matter how "new" news is, at least one
person already knows it, probably from a different forum or
corresponding chatroom. Even though a user will get flamed for posting
"old news", there will always be several users who didn't know it
before. That almost sounds like it needs an XKCD comic to go with it.Almost.

@Weng said: This is the most awesome thing ever to happen to aviation. EVERY airline must license this IMMEDIATELY. This has the added knock-on of making the seats wider when used as regular coach seating, which as a man with a big ass (I *JUST* barely fit in the widest coach seat on the market - JetBlue at 18.5 inches), I wholly endorse this action.

I have lost few files related to my current project. which were stored in my personal computer and i have enabled time machine also. unluckily time machine is not allowing me to access those files. its giving me a strange excuse. if you can suggest me a better way to get those files back, that would be really halpful.
@Nagesh said:Is copy pasting big novel that nobody want to read in comment section, considered spam or sign of being idiot?Can it be both?Spam doesn't have to be advertising.Anyway, if this thread is about the front page comments, ignore my post above. I have no interest in or control over them. AFAIK Alex rolled his own Comments section and rigged it up to authenticate against the CS db.

@Sutherlands said:Indeed. Who hasn't looked at a bridget post and thought "that is extremely insightful, i should post in kind."But no, you're right, there's no way that knowledge has increased in the information age.Nobody shares knowlegde like this.
Considering they encourage employees to come up with new patents, I can see how such a stupid idea came up published.
I just hope this will never be made into an actual product. Not only it's ridiculous by itself, but requiring a remote server to process the aging introduces a SERIOUS security hole. Just think about it: a "fake" aging server capturing files, acting as your good ol' aging server, but sending the information to somewhere else... That's bound to be exploited and causing havoc!

@Zemm said:Any suggestions on what to do to some housing commission occupants who are having a loud party on a Sunday night? Can't really go out there as they are milling about, I've registered noise complaints with the cops but they do nothing. I have to go to work tomorrow but they get to sit around watching cable and smoking all on my tax dollars...Knock on door. Tell people to quieten down. Rinse. Repeet.
@dhromed said:But what about the grafiti that genuinely is artfully made and a highly apt decoration for grey concrete sections of wall?
It exists. If all graffiti were quality graffiti you'd have about 80% less of a problem with it.
@Zemm said:@Article said:But focus groups called the bills "Monopoly money" and said they did not feel as real as paper money.
LOL. Paper banknotes feel like monopoly money to me. Since, you know, monopoly money is paper. Here in Australia we've had the full complement of polymer notes since 1996 - my entire adult life. During a trip to Japan we got a bunch of ¥10000 notes and they felt like monopoly money, despite being worth around $160 each at the time!
Old Turkish Lira was the best monopoly currency I experienced - paper notes and millions to the GB pound in 2001. I think that a McDonalds meal at the airport cost 48 million lira which felt like a scary amount to put on the credit card.

@brettdavis42 said:I'm in the process of revising my resume and I'm debating about leaving a job off my resume.
Funny. I read the headline as something related to VB :-)
Anyway, I have done something similar. As a contractor I have been on several smaller jobs (less than a year), and some of those were not always something to be proud of. So leave it out if you want, but if an interviewer digs out that you were in fact hiding this, have a good answer ready as to why you didn't mention this job. Be prepared.

@mahlerrd said:@Cian said:winter as November, December and January That's the months we have snow on the ground. Well, if you add February, March and April to it too. Easter usually is below freezing with snow still on the ground. Egg hunts are interesting. I think that's about the extent of the lakes being frozen, too - end of November until March or April. February is not really a month where it's starting to turn yet here, though it's the month you start noticing the days are indeed getting longer again and that is the harbinger of good things to come. Usually by February the -40 F temps are gone for the year. (Actually, I don't think February even brings -30F temps... usually doesn't get too much below, oh, -10 or so.) Sorry, I was wrong. Last February had 4 days with lows below -10. Heck, -7 on the 27th of February. Take a look
