I just noticed that (1) the new Canadian NDP leader is on mastodon ( @avilewis ) but also (2) that he is following me on here???
Are they doing server hacks to engage with as many people as possible, or does Mr. Lewis want to talk tech?
If it's the latter, please HMU!
Today I learned about Winnie the Pooh. I mean Vinni Puh!
If I disable this, but someone else has a fork of my repo and didn't disable this, then what happens? Is this just another M$ scam to grab more data?
I might be open to the idea of them training on my code, if they respected the software licenses and also listed every piece of data in the compendium!
FYI: Using models via AWS is gated and you need to submit business information before getting access! TIL.
(I forgot to take an AWS screenshot directly, before it closed.)
Free Software needs Free tools!
Automation folks often needlessly special-case scenarios instead of engineering better solutions.
Today I replaced the above, verbose, multi-case code which uses the #mgmtconfig "Network UPS Tools" module with the below shorter code which now works on *any* machine!
This code automates deployment of UPS monitoring and now works with whichever UPS happens to already be plugged in!
So this was extremely delicious and anyone heading to Canada from Germany or Belgium or anywhere else this is sold, please lmk, I would like to hire you to bring me like 100 of them. (they are 50g each)
They have other kinds in this form factor too. Wow.
