  • I would start by setting up some sort of a monitoring system that tracks your memory usage, disk I/O, CPU etc. There are many packages out there for that. I don't know what lemmy is written in but chances are there are also application monitoring you can wire in too like Sentry https://sentry.io/welcome/

    Of course I don't know how your app is being hosted by fediservices. I don't know if you have shell access or can install any apps or whatever.

  • Given the lack of rigorous testing and monitoring I suspect actual reported number of cases should be doubled or tripled. The hospitalisation and deaths are more reliable and that's what we should be monitoring.

  • AFIK the US has very long mortgage terms. It's routine to get a 30 year mortgage with locked in terms. Of course people can and do refinance but if they have good terms they can keep them until the house is paid off.

    Our mortgages are only a couple of years or so.

    That's a huge difference INMHO and can't really be compared.

  • I didn't get a chance to visit that brewery. In fact the only brewery I visited in Australia was the little creatures in Fremantle which was in a large building like a warehouse. Good beer, good food but not a place you go for some peace and quiet that's for sure.

    Analysis - Power is not being abused, but it is not being well managed either. New Zealand democracy, unique and currently brittle, should be handled with greater care, Alexander Gillespie writes.

    Another 26,000 'will be unemployed' before peak reached
  • The point is that the word recession has a meaning, the meaning is accepted worldwide, and we are in one. I would also dispute that we are not experiencing the bad effects. The polls seem to indicate the public is feeling quite a bit of pain.

  • Why Brisbane? I was there once. It was hot and muggy and generally unpleasant. I don't remember having a great meal there, I don't remember seeing anything particularly spectacular. Just seemed like a hut and muggy city.

    Melbourne OTOH was dynamic and fun and had spectacular food.

  • No merit to Palo Alto Networks insider trading allegations, Sir John Key says

    Surely all these people losing decent paying jobs will have no impact on the economy right? Definitely not a recession right?

    NZ First’s toilet bill is designed to outrage but that doesn’t mean we can ignore it

    The important thing to keep in mind is that there is a significant proportion of the population that wants this and is going to vote for right wing parties in order to stop the "trans agenda"

    Please keep this handy for when Seymour starts coming after parents who feed their kids Quinoa and hummus charging them with child abuse.

    Remember folks. Only feed your kids high carb, high fat, fried, nutritionally empty foods.

    Also of course no vegetables of any sort.
