For the record I did not downvote.

But I capitulate on your point. It would be great if every piece of software was written with resilience and uptime in mind.

As a former sysadmin that sounds like a dream. But I don’t think I have ever seen that with any mainstream program that I’ve had responsibility for. Does that mean all those programs were bad? I don’t think so. We wouldn’t need sysadmins if all programs were written the way you describe.

Programs can be written to auto rotate their logs, compact and reindex their db’s. Using browser updates as an example, they can even safely auto update and revert back on failure.

How many programs actually do these things? My experience is next to 0. But I wouldn’t call them all bad or poorly written programs.

Were they a total solar eclipse? Because those are way different then partial and I think qualify as once in a lifetime event.

No. Every good software program should write at least logs to disk. Every good database writes to disk. Add a new post, db will commit to the db and the db will grow in size.

Name any decent sized program where new content is added and I guarantee it writes to disk and will fail eventually if not maintained.

Yes I agree launches get scrubbed all the time. My point was that Boeing hasn’t crossed the finished line by any measure of complete.

Looking back, they were trying to say they were done as soon as they launched the first uncrewed flight test. Heck even after it didn’t make it to the space station they were still trying to claim success.

Being finished means actually getting NASA to agree to regular operations. That has not happened yet, and it won’t happen until after this mission lands.

Premature to say that they finished. Launch tonight was scrubbed. Even this launch is a test flight. Let’s see how long until NASA approves for regular flights

Did you build this box? Could be cpu thermal paste not properly applied.

Shame the guy couldn’t be bothered to do a short interview with a writer from a well known tech magazine. Most small businesses CEOs would jump at the chance. Or at least they should.

I would suggest that the hide read post button work like a toggle. Tap onece and hide read post. Tap again and unhide. Tap a 3rd time and hide read posts again, including any newly read ones.

Jokes on you, I never vote! It all looks the same to me.

Logging out is fine. But if it could remember the instance name and username, that would be fantastic!

Wow, I appreciate getting a reply from the developer!

I didn’t know about swipe away, so that is nice to be able to do so. However, it actually deletes it the account from the accounts menu. So you have to remember and retype both the instance and username when you want to log back in. Would be nicer if it kept that, and I only had to retype the pw.

It says blur will persist “if logged out”. Is there a way to log out?

Would just like to pile on my thanks as well. Every time I find something missing, it seems the next update has it. Truly awesome!

Ha! I beat the system. I never used remindme bot
