I am using the OwnTracks app on Graphene OS via http and it's working well so far, but I only set it up very recently.

I installed with obtanium and it doesn't need any play services, Graphene's location service works fine.

I am using a different back end though, GeoPulse not Reitti. Still evaluating the different choices, I will probably try Reitti as well.

I love mine, I've had it since around 2013 and it's been used daily the entire time. I've only had to replace the seal once. Really a perfect bottle.

I became a huge Zappa fan thanks to this song.

All good. I've never heard of Xiu Xiu but I am a fan of the talking heads so I was curious to find the right track.

Link doesn't seem to match the title (same artist, different song). Should be this?

I mean, anything to help reduce people trying to put the slop on arXiv is a good thing I guess. I'm sure it won't stop them trying but it might help a little.

I specifically said I'm referring to the large number of down votes.

Of course he's trying to get our attention, but I don't think the title is incorrect? Why the spaghetti one beat the clean one is what he talked about.

If he's said "beats" I'd be upset too, but a singular "beat" makes it fine in my opinion.

I wonder if anyone actually watched the video or you're all just knee jerking to the title...?

He's not saying that you should write or accept spaghetti code, he's sharing a particular story from his career that he learned from where in that specific case the old spaghetti implementation beat the new architecturally pure, perfect code standards version - because the developer of the new one only focused on that and not observability, proper load testing, designing for the right scale, etc.

The point is clearly that code quality is one of multiple important factors.

I thought it was a perfectly reasonable watch.

Edit: referring mainly to the down votes, there are others in the comments who clearly watched it.

Life During Wartime from that album 👌

Love this, the version from Stop Making Sense has got to be the best one.
