If you had a pair of PostgreSQL databases - one active, one hot standby - what would you use to load balance them?

Having tarot cards mock you- is like having painted walls laugh at you.

"If you would know a mystic, do not confine your search to monasteries and temples, but look also on the highways and byways, in towns, hamlets, and in the hustle and bustle of the great cosmopolitan centers of the world. When you find someone who is industrious, studious, compassionate, loved by friends, and neighbors, tolerant in religious views, and who can point out to you the magnificence and efficacy of God in the simplest of things, you have found a mystic. With these qualities, whether one is attired in sacerdotal robe or in the overalls of a mechanic, one is none the less a mystic." Ralph M. Lewis

If you don't keep a journal, don't pretend to have a meaningful life story. That's only reserved for people who document it, and for those whose actions speak beyond words.

Write it down but still feel meaningless? Congrats, your life provides insight for others.
Condolences for your plight, but sharing your perspective will help others after the fact.

Fun fact, if anyone wanted to read my journal or any of my personal notes, they'd have to be able to read cursive.

Writing in cursive requires more energy and adds more thought into what is put down. That's what I had been taught anyhow.

Fortunately, none of my work notes or technical scriptures are in cursive.

You're welcome script kiddies.

I was drawing off hypothetical, not practical.

Otherwise, I agree.

Employee owned stock can possibly help improve employee livelihood, compared to a singular CEO who gets a raise.

@LouisIngenthron @peterdrake
Stock buybacks have greater potential for employee benefit than CEO raise.

Latest release of GrapheneOS finally shipped the long awaited duress PIN/password implementation. If you have a spare device, we recommend trying it out.

We've added initial documentation to the features page:

It near instantly wipes and shuts down.

After a week of driving in Spain, I've just driven in the UK again, and I'm shocked. British roads right now are about the worst I've ever experienced. The potholes and general disrepair are completely unacceptable.
