  • Quite a few unexpected results here…

    1. I’m surprised the C binary is not the smallest, and it’s outdone by Pascal, of all languages.
    2. The speed/energy difference between Java and C# (almost a factor of 2 in favor of Java).
    3. The relatively good performance of JavaScript compared to other loosely typed multi-paradigm scripting languages.
    4. The difference between C# and F#. That’s actually a good reason to question the accuracy of these tests and results.

  • I upgrade as soon as new versions come out, I like living on the edge :) if something goes wrong, there are backups.

    As for musl, I haven’t mentioned it since OP wants to run containers - and in that case, musl doesn’t matter. And for running programs natively, many are available as packages (with any musl incompatibilities already resolved). But yeah, if you venture outside these limits, you can definitely run into issues with musl.


  • Everybody is so quick to suggest Debian (and it’s a fine choice), but Alpine is great for such things, as well. It’s blazing fast, frequently updated, has most packages you could ever want in a server environment (not that it matters if you’re planning on using containers). I’ve been using Alpine for years as my docker host, and not once have I thought “man, I wish it was debian instead”.








  • Are you seriously comparing a group that openly targets civilians, hiding in civilian infrastructure, with a group that retaliates? Good luck coming up with a response that matches your standards when your country is under a rocket barrage. The double standards people develop when sitting in the safety of their home and regurgitating biased news… It’s thanks to people like you that this conflict thrives, because extremists from both sides use the lies you spread to their advantage.







  • A custom made Google Sheet to track everything - maintenance, repairs, insurance, and fuel ups. I’d like to move to an app that supports all of the above, but getting everything into an importable format was messy (tried it with Fuelio), and I gave up after a while. The fact that I’m also writing down parts purchased prior to installation does not make this easier.

    My plan is to try and convert it all into plaintext accounting format (probably Beancont with a tailor-made plugin), but so far I’ve been mostly kicking that ball down the street.
