The best cut changes seasonally

• cut medium in the spring to better control it in fast growth
• cut long in the summer to hold more moisture and choke out weeds, to better handle dry season
• cut short in fall, to help it green up faster in the Spring, reduce thatch, and make it easier to keep clean of debris over winter

Once grass is hibernating, it’s not like cutting it short inhibits anything: that part of the grass isn’t coming back to life

Where are you?

I’ve never seen grass stay green over winter, in the northeast US

• Massachusetts
• New York
• Michigan
• New Hampshire

I’ve always heard it recommended to cut short after it goes dormant. It helps the grass come back quickly in the spring and cuts down on thatch.

That does look really short though

Plus why are there no milestones labeled , yet the line has an inflection point so obviously the author has an opinion.

Any idea why MacOSX would trend down recently? I’ve had no objections nor have I heard any. Of course I’m probably in a fanboi echo chamber so could easily have missed someone raining on that parade

Everything is in git, and I tend to use IntelliJ as an IDE. So my projects are all in ~/Ideaprojects/[PROJECTNAME]

Glory Hole

Raspberry Pi OS is sticking your hardware through a small hole into what a full Linux distribution would feel like, given sufficient imagination

That’s July question: the article even points that out. If previously the private key was in hardware, never exposed, but now it has to be available to software. Does it open any potential attacks?

Even if it is less secure, this is probably a good thing to prevent vendor lock-in. I know that’s one reason I rarely use passkeys

We have a scanner that does that on every build.

It blocks builds for dependencies with

• licenses not acceptable to Legal
• serious or critical vulnerabilities.
• political messages, even if you agree with them
• we may also add a criteria to block non-release dependencies.

As a developer, you’re free to use anything that works

I have yet to figure out how my company views contributing back to open source. I don’t know of anyone actively doing that, but it turns out we host a few originals of open source. I’ve been trying to improve development processes, get tools and dependencies up to date …… but then I ran into things where it’s a bigger change because of the downstream opensource dependencies and because it’s not really owned by the company

No one brought up ai yet? No, srsly ……

My opinion on these licenses is theoretical since I haven’t actually developed any open source.

However an analogous scenario which DOES affect me, and most people here ….

• I’ve posted my opinion online in various places. Offered freely to the public to do as they please.
• I’m fine with companies making money off providing the aggregate of such efforts to the public, such as by advertising. However my pseudonym retains credit and the audience is open

All well and good until AI came along and everyone sees a potential jackpot. And there’s Reddit, wanting a bigger share of that jackpot. They’ve taken the idea a step farther and I’m not ok with it. I guess I don’t like the restrictions and I don’t like the extra levels of profiteering: Reddit makes money off providing my content in a limited form to private companies. They in turn make money off AI trained by my content, to a limited audience and there is no longer a portion credited to my pseudonym. Technically they’re in the right since I never thought to prevent this scenario, but they’re not using it in the way I expected/intended/ was told

Also, check back in a month. Sometimes a domain squatter will just never at, hopin to flip it before the registrar takes it back

Oh. Yeah. Nothing to see here. Everyone carry on

I’m in the US but suddenly need to take a couple weeks vacation because my European employer has some weird fiscal year nonsense going on. Apparently the current year is 2025 and my “rollover” vacation days from 2024 expire soon

Nitpicking here, but I’ve never seen anyone actually spell out the word “quote” in this context, when typing it online. We have a special character for that

Step 0). Decide if there’s anything you dont want on a common server.

I realized long ago that my projects sometimes stall out partway through. However some things need to just work, regardless of where I am in a project. HA is a great example of something that manages itself (so less advantage to the VM) and that I want always available, so even if I decide to go down a route like you are, HA stays independent, stays available

I’ve been wondering about that, since my Firestick became so shitty that I actually prefer streaming apps on my TV. Most of my devices are already on Apple, so how about this one?

• I like fewer ads
• if it’s like the Apple TV app, there’s too much pressure to buy stuff I’m never going to buy.

So, on the home screen, can you tell which Videos are to purchase without clicking into them? Are things you subscribe to easily distinguishable from god forsaken ad infested ones?
