Quite literally the first paragraph of the article:
According to Soviet records 381,067 German Wehrmacht POWs died in NKVD camps (356,700 German nationals and 24,367 from other nations).
Or in more detail lower down in the section titled Soviet statistics:
According to Russian historian Grigori F. Krivosheev, Soviet NKVD figures list 2,733,739 German “Wehrmacht” POWs (Военнопленные из войск вермахта) taken with 381,067 having died in captivity.
I’m not sure which German you expect to have conducted this research other than a former Nazi, seeing as basically everyone left was a former Nazi. And I don’t see how you can just dismiss the government report as Nazi lies when even the Soviets report a figure of 350 thousand dead.
But check that it has all the features you need because it lags behind gitea in some aspects (like ci).
Podman quadlets have been a blessing. They basically let you manage containers as if they were simple services. You just plop a container unit file in /etc/containers/systemd/, daemon-reload and presto, you’ve got a service that other containers or services can depend on.
I’ve been in love with the concept of ansible since I discovered it almost a decade ago, but I still hate how verbose it is, and how cumbersome the yaml based DSL is. You can have a role that basically does the job of 3 lines of bash and it’ll need 3 yaml files in 4 directories.
About 3 years ago I wrote a big ansible playbook that would fully configure my home server, desktop and laptop from a minimal arch install. Then I used said playbook for my laptop and server.
I just got a new laptop and went to look at the playbook but realised it probably needs to be updated in a few places. I got feelings of dread thinking about reading all that yaml and updating it.
So instead I’m just gonna rewrite everything in simple python with a few helper functions. The few roles I rewrote are already so much cleaner and shorter. Should be way faster and more user friendly and maintainable.
I’ll keep ansible for actual deployments.
Someone found a way to weaponise bikeshedding.
All public companies are, it’s just what Boeing makes things that fall out of the sky if they mess up, so it’s more obvious.
Just have NAS A send a rocket with the data to NAS B.
Seems to me that a lot of the world’s problems start with “well, the managers think…” They all seem extremely bad at the whole managing thing, good thing we don’t overpay them or anything like that.
Yeah OpenCASCADE is amazing because it’s the only real geometry kernel that’s open source. There’s a few smaller ones like solvespace, but they’re really more like toys. It’s like the Linux of the CAD world.
Writing a geometry kernel is a monumental task, not unlike writing a real os kernel or a modern web engine. I’ve seen people just lay the basic foundations of a kernel as their PhD thesis. Most of the commercial ones were written decades ago and are still being worked on - the big ones are Parasolid ACIS, ShapeManager, CGM. The last one would maybe be considered a newcomer cause it’s only 15-20 years old.
Podman not because of security but because of quadlets (systemd integration). Makes setting up and managing container services a breeze.
