Flyfoto: Ny tjeneste lar brukerne plassere flyfoto på kartet Du kan plassere flyfoto på kartet! Flyfoto er fotografier som er tatt i lav høyde fra småfly av landskap, bygninger, natur, bygd og by.

Er du over 35 og i ferd med å bli gradvis mer interessert i lokalhistorie? Nasjonalbiblioteket trenger hjelp med å plassere sin samling av historiske flyfoto på kartet.

Norway sucks for programmers. It's not what you think.

The country code completely breaks the official YAML 1.1 spec.

NO evaluates into Boolean false...regardless of case.

This can cause cryptic, hard to debug errors; especially in YAML-heavy environments like Kubernetes.

Ring 0 is a highly-privileged state on CPUs.


Negative Ring Levels have even *higher* privilege. You just haven’t heard of them.


For X86, Ring -1 is Hardware Virtualization, Ring -2 is System Management Mode, Ring -3 is Intel ME / AMD PSP.

Arm get's even weirder:

Kubernetes 1.0 was released 10 years ago. What would k8s 2.0 look like?

A die photo of the Pentium chip. An arrow points to a location on the die, with the text "FDIV bug". The chip itself has a complex pattern of circuitry with brownish rectangles and lines of various sizes.

In 1994, a math professor discovered that Intel's Pentium chip sometimes gave the wrong answer when dividing. Fixing this "FDIV" bug cost Intel $475 million. I analyzed the Pentium chip and found the bug. 1/N

YouTube video by Devoxx Valhalla - Where Are We? by Brian Goetz

I highly recommend the Valhalla talk by @briangoetz.bsky.social at #Devoxx (www.youtube.com/watch?v=eL1y...). Not only because it gives an excellent view on what is coming in Java, but also because Brian clearly explains why it is important to spend much thinking into crucial language features.

Interesting discussion in this thread 👇

how do you all remember every UUID? I find it really hard. so I wrote them all down on every uuid dot com

the list has fast search across all 2^122 values (so you can find your favorites) - hoping to add some social features like "trending UUIDs" soon!

Can we get support for IDN (Internationalized domain name) and Punycode ?
I have a domain with international characters, like the Norwegian 'æ', and this does not work correctly.
A bug has been registered here: github.com/bluesky-soci...

In case you missed it: Bluesky runs on-prem. They migrated off of AWS months back.

So yeah, they DO need to put orders in for servers! (Good luck to the dev team!)

More on their architecture: newsletter.pragmaticengineer.com/p/bluesky

Same. We are replacing Docker Desktop with Rancher Desktop. Drop-in replacement, without the bloat.
(Only thing: make sure Rancher Desktop is listed before Docker Desktop in you "path" env variable)

Done! Thx!

Samme problem here. It does not like IDNs.

The more I dig into Bluesky, and more importantly the AT Protocol, the more I get that feeling I had when I first got involved with the Kubernetes project.
