About Me

Kinda hard to describe. For a website you usually have severally programs that do different things. The User interface, which is the website you interact with, the middle teir, which is usually in a strongly typed language like java, golang, or Rust (in the case of lemmy.) It usually sleakes to a database to store user information. Like Postgres or mysql. Then you might have very topic specific programs. Like picture hosting programs. Lemmy had one called pictrs. It's responsible for uploading, shrinking, storing, retrieving pictures people upload. For example, when you upload a photo it makes atleast two copies. One large and one small. The small one is loaded up in the main page so the list loads quicker.

When you enter a address in the address bar, a reverse proxy is often in charge of which service get called. The reverse proxy sits in front of all those programs and coordinates the communication between all of them.

This can be used for load balancing. Large companies especially can't handle millions of people logging into 1 computer. So a reverse proxy can split the connections. Send some here, some there, some over yonder.

Nginx is the most popular reverse proxy. Written in C by Russians. It's really replaced Apache over the last 10 yeats. Cady is a newer but slower one written in golang. It's easier to use I've heard.

Basically a reverse proxy forwards web request to multiple servers or virtual servers.

Granny video makes compression basically not work at all. Or very poorly. I remember ripping a blueray of a movie that was very grainy for artistic reasons, running it through handbrake and it coming out larger that it was when I put it in. The clearer the video the easier it is to compress and make good guesses about what was supposed to be there.

I don't sleep well with a concern of bumping the baby and with him punching/kicking me randomly.

By the time you ween them (around 8-16 months), they need their own bed, and by about 2 years, there are concerns of modesty...

My kids breast feed until like 24 months and my five year old still sleeps with us. We don't really have any modesty concerns. My wife and I have sex when they are at school or a different room while they sleep and I don't really care about nudity amongst family. We have two large beds so everyone has plenty of room and there isn't a lot of bumbing.

Don't get me wrong I want them in their own bed but it sure is hard to get them to do that.

nostr:npub1w2gxxd59h9fyac5vax0zs6xx4pdl784kl3ruvykafaej88fxr02szxfeln could be, but even as reported its pretty bad. And ultimately the main reason is that our government is betraying the people.

Or illiterates are immigrating here

I cosleep with my kids. I don't feel like it's a huge deal. And it throughout history I imagine that was normal. The same can't be said of iPads, soda, candy. Eventually I want them in their own beds but there is no hurry

You know it's only a matter of time before governments try to make it illegal to move from shitty places? Like they ruin the area and try to keep your taxes there.

Over seas coworker: I need help.

Me: it's late for you, how about you get some sleep, I'll wake up early as fuck to help you debug it.

OSC: ok

Me: alarm goes off. Push kids off me, make tea, contemplate existence for a few minutes. Does anything matter? Am I part of the universe ? Soo early. Log onto computer

Coworker: I'm not feeling good today, I'll talk to you tomorrow.

Me: .... start shit posting.

Lol that was me. I wanted the front page of nostr to not be judged by that guy talking about hate speech.

I made an appointment last week to get the seasonal flu vaccine and the updated Covid vaccines today. This was at a major national pharmacy chain (not the one which voluntarily pulled Plan B from its shelves). I was not successful at getting vaccinated. I'm grumpy about it.

I went to the location at which I made the appointment. They couldn't find my appointment in their system. They even went as far as telling me that my appointment was actually at another location. But they didn't actually have any vaccine in stock anyway. They were turning away other people with appointments.

[I went to the other location, and they were very clear that I did not have an appointment there, and actually printed out my appointment info so that I have something to show the first location. Though that location was also turning people away, saying that their appointments were at other locations, including the one which doesn't have any vaccine.]

And they didn't seem to have any way to efficiently reschedule. If they couldn't give you the vaccine because they didn't have stock, you're just out of luck. Make a new appointment online, I guess? Though do note that they're basically all booked up for the next two weeks — which is how far in advance their booking system goes.

So everyone who got their act together early to book their flu & Covid vaccines as soon as possible has their appointments pushed back by weeks, during a spike.

I called back the first location to ask if there were any faster way to reschedule, and they basically told me to pound sand and wanted to get me off the phone as fast as possible. They did say that they were expecting a vaccine shipment tomorrow. I think I'm just going to go back to the first location tomorrow morning and ask them to honor yesterday's appointment.

But what a mess. What utter nonsense. You shouldn't need an appointment to get a vaccine. You should just be able to walk in to any pharmacy anywhere and get it. But if there is an appointment system, people who make appointments should get vaccinated. It should be hard to avoid being vaccinated, rather than a challenge even if you do everything right.

The vaccine doesn't work
