Brian Kernighan (Unix legend, the K in K&R and AWK):

my desktop is pretty boring, since it consists of xterm windows to whatever unix system i am using at the moment. On the other desktops I have a couple of konqueror windows open, a kmail and in the system tray a kscd, which currently plays Mozart’s piano Sonata No. 15 in F by Christian Zacharias. So I don’t really feel the need for GUI things like Gnome or KDE

Jordan Hubbard (FreeBSD co-founder, later Director of UNIX Technology at Apple):

Oh great, your email arrived early in the morning when I had just logged into my system, so things are a little bleak.

To find out what”s new in Perl 5.30.0 take a look at the perldelta page. If you are new to the Perl language, good places to start reading are the introduction and overview at perlintro, and the FAQ section, which provides answers to over 300 common questions. visit CPAN and access over 180,000 Perl modules.

And it’s the amount that Google made from the work of news publishers in 2018 via search and Google News, according to a study to be released on Monday by the News Media Alliance. “They make money off this arrangement,” Mr. Chavern said, “and there needs to be a better outcome for news publishers.” That $4.7 billion is nearly as much as the $5.1 billion brought in by the United States news industry as a whole from digital advertising last year — and the News Media Alliance cautioned that its estimate for Google’s income was conservative.

Definitely should be less than 1M (MZBench latency computation sometimes has error and reports high latency, hence the high 1M upper bound here)
Consumer graph should reach SUBS (Consumer = Number of Subscriptions)
Messages Consumed = Messages Published * SUBS

Latency measurements are in microseconds. Single Node Tests
In these tests, we spawned a single instance of VerneMQ and EMQX to find their performance limits. In case there was a subscription done before the load test stopped, that client received those messages.

Probably already everyone knows or at least suspects that companies on the internet are using for free our personal data. Let’s say I agree that Google can use my search requests for internal use but I prohibit it from reselling it to other companies. I agree it looks quite ambitious and probably impossible to implement (primarily because companies will never agree to such terms in favor of continue providing free services), but I believe it is really important to start talking and shaping the way of working with personal data in the future now.

Stop giving away your work to people who don’t care about it. Do you see someone in the wild, not owning their platform? Let them know:

A tiny, tiny, not-at-all-complete list of reasons you should own your platform:

This is a Sean Blanda creation on behalf of the internet.

Long story short: DigitalOcean’s automated abuse system flagged the startup’s account after they spun up about ten powerful droplets for some CPU-intensive jobs and deleted them shortly after — which is literally the biggest selling point of a “servers by the hour” company like DigitalOcean, by the way — and, after replying to the support ticket, an unsympathetic customer support agent declined to reactivate the account without explanation. Writing steps to create an S3 bucket would be incredibly redundant, so here are Amazon’s writeups on creating one (make sure the bucket is fully private; the other default settings are fine) as well as grabbing your account’s “access keys” which will be used to authenticate Restic with S3. Right-click and copy the direct URL for that file and head over to your server’s command line to download it into your home directory:

Next, we’ll unzip the download in place:

This should leave us with a single file: the Restic binary.

Everything is terrific and they had exactly what I wanted, too (just Internet. Imagine getting personalized emails from your provider asking how everything is? The customer service alone is enough to earn my praise but my Internet also works seamlessly!
