@vyruss a bit high on the idle / min connection config by the sounds.
@sjstoelting @vyruss certainly very unlikely to see a Java app which is not using a pooler. Not sure I see that as a major issue, it's often solving a different issue to a centralised external pooler. Sure you still need to pay attention to the pooling config.
@vyruss with PGPool on the application servers?

This letter is going viral -- because it absolutely rips apart BBC Question Time's right-wing bias with clear data.

Dear developers. Please don’t forget to compliment things you like about someone’s code when reviewing their PR.

"Announcing a return to work for three days a week minimum so you can still continue to video call with your coworkers and now experience a fucked up hybrid work thing where nobody's needs are met" is some serious "hey don't consider working here" flags. Love that. 🙄
@dick_turpin probably more the Torry party's fault.
@alex That's rather cool to know, always used to use `uuidgen` for that.

Meta. OpenAI. Google.
Your AI chatbot is not *hallucinating*.
It's bullshitting.
It's bullshitting, because that's what you designed it to do. You designed it to generate seemingly authoritative text "with a blatant disregard for truth and logical coherence," i.e., to bullshit.
Genuinely think it should be illegal for companies to pay ransomewere demands, they might put a bit more effort into security that way, and maybe have a recovery plan in the event of disasters.
@bigcalm very likely not mounted, it might well be /dev/sda1
@bigcalm it will be the first partition on the device. If it's mounted /proc/mounts will show it as VFAT.
@bigcalm it looks like the modprobe config is living in that same VFAT boot parition, and you need to create the directories.
@bigcalm You need to enable the device tree overlays as step one. These are applied by the RPi bootloader, which uses the files: config.txt in the VFAT boot partition. Typically this file will have: `include extraconfig.txt`. So you can create a file in that boot partition named `extraconfig.txt` can add the lines: `dtparam=i2c_vc=on
dtparam=i2c_arm=on`. If you plug the SSD into your PC the boot partition will likely show up first.
@bigcalm Do you need to enable any device tree overlays? Or just the modprobe i2c-dev?
@sil locking up in what way? I had some Radeon DRM crashes a few weeks back, but that got fixed in a kernel update.

confession: as someone with ADD, I often imagine myself putting my focus on a task **and then** doing it until completion.
It's romantic, and exciting. Like an action movie.
But, this is basically never how it works out.
