You know, the same deal kind of applies about "losing newcomers". Because I avooded using AWS because everything seemed cryptic and weird with its terminology. So other companies got my business.
That's mostly because it doesn't have real directories, it just simulates them with string prefixes and if you forget that on large buckets you are going to have a bad time.
Imagine you have dir1/dir2 with "directories" inside, each one with millions of "files"/objects. When you try to "ls" the dir1/dir2 by querying Prefix='dir1/dir2/' and Delimiter='/' S3 will still scan all the millions of objects starting with the prefix, and then filter out the ones that have a / after the prefix.
There's no benefit or drawback on it's own. The way the keys and queries work are geared to S3's nature as a key value object store - which requires it to support keys that wouldn't be valid file paths or that have different delimiters.
There is a reason for that since S3 is not block storage and doesn't have a Hierarchal filesystem. That's why when you create folder in the S3 console what you are really creating is a prefix meaning its just a placeholder to auto add the prefix string to the beginning of all objects. But all objects in the bucket are flat when it comes to the API. Plus the way the files are stored in the shards in S3. You can limit Throughput by treating prefixes like a hierarchical filesystem too much.
The more confusing thing I've had to explain to too many developers is that it's not a directory regardless of what it looks like on the AWS website view. It's a "prefix" meaning the entire thing, including the slashes, is just part of the filename, there is no real structure inside a bucket. So there's no such thing as relative paths to search for things. When you call the list objects function with a prefix it's the same as doing a "starts with" on a string. You can't give it a partial "path" relative to another object that appears to be in another "folder".
Reminds me of the oilfield unit hell. If you even mention an SI unit on an offshore drilling platform, your beheaded carcass will be displayed on top of the derrick as a warning for others, left to be devoured by birds and the salty wind.
For what it's worth, they're referred to as directories by command prompt and PowerShell (effectively the new Windows command prompt) tools as Windows as well.
Honestly, yeah. The filesystem's address table is more analogous to a 'directory'. You don't really put things in a directory -- a directory tells you where to find things that are located outside of it.
Just call it a 'container object' and you can be technically correct in almost every context.
See also: in SQL and Dataverse, a row is called a 'record', but in SharePoint and Lists, a row is called an 'item', and MAN do people get all pissy if you get them mixed up or refer to it as a 'row'.
It's even more aggravating when you understand that 1) they're all different implementations of the 'table' data structure, so the term is still accurate; 'records' and 'items' are just subsets of 'rows', and 2) SharePoint and Lists are just SQL on the backend anyway.
Like, obviously you knew what I meant, but how is your ego gonna get stroked unless you preach about pedantic details that don't matter?
If I'm browsing in a GUI they're folders. If I'm using a CLI they're directories. Except when I decide to do the opposite in either situation. Everything I do is the correct method and the only people who are wrong are whoever disagree with me. Unless they're hot.
I've heard some techs complain that a 'machine' can be physical or virtual, but a 'box' always refers to a physical machine. I don't really agree with that distinction; if the difference matters, say "physical machine" or "virtual machine". In 99% of cases, whether a machine is physical or virtual is a distinction without a difference anyway.
We see where you're coming from, and also it is unhealthy to be extremely sensitive to every single hint of bigotry, from malicious or innocent sources, from your instance or others'. Take it from me - it destroys you to focus on the negative so much that you start to miss the positive.
I know you put so much effort into taking care of others, particularly transfolk (who don't get themselves kicked out, like I did 😉) on blåhaj.zone. Remember to care for yourself also!
I was only trying to empathize what I wrote, that a) the a and å were swapped, and b) they said something very heartwarming. No hidden message or reading-between-the-lines necessary. 👍
I get where you're coming from and it's hard to tell the difference, but actually that's Robbie Coltrane, not J.K Rowling
Jokes aside, that's a beloved character played by a beloved actor who unfortunately won't be appearing in any more movies. Personally I haven't sent a single cent Rowling's way since watching Deathly Hallows part 2 in the movies and never will again, but the bitch can't take away the fond memories I have of reading the books and seeing the movies, especially the first one where this is from.
I think most people here on the fediverse know enough not to support her financially, but when it comes to memes, the movies aren't just her art, they were made by a ton of people who don't necessarily share her views (I suspect that in the 00s, nobody knew about them). And it'd be a shame to lose good memes that evoke such nostalgia
Keeping her relevant in popular culture is supporting her financially, politically and socially, because her relevance influences both her wealth and her political clout.
And I'm going to pushback against that. In this case, it was a single line snarky comment that referenced the meme in question. In response, I got 5 or so responses from people, each of them multi paragraph long, insisting on telling me just how it's actually ok to post Rowling stuff.
And from my perspective, if you're ok enough with Rowling to not say anything when a Rowling meme is posted, you should also be ok enough with someone posting a snarky one liner in pushback against it.
But if folk are ok with a meme that entrenches the relevance of a virulent transphobe, but a snarky response to that meme warrants a multi paragraph response, then it might be time to re-evaluate priorities...
Same here. I would never willingly watch harry potter or support her on purpose. I just thought this was a good meme template and honestly, I love Hagrid. Hagrid is fictional and his actor is dead. I don't care about JK, she can die. I still love Hagrid.
Had to check the community rules, but couldn't find them calling this place a trans community. In fact, they explicitly call it a "meme community" and this is a very common meme format. If you're inclined to check the rules yourself, I'd like to point you to number 3
This is absolutely a trans-inclusive community, it just isn't spelled out (e: it is now) because inclusion should be natural. I don't like making assumptions about a person's identity or beliefs (unless they scream it to the heavens, at which point it isn't an assumption anymore), and I can't determine whether a person is welcome here based on what they are. When a person's behaviour becomes problematic, that is when I step in. In particular, if someone reports a homophobic, transphobic, or racist comment, you won't see me argue with them: those comments get immediately deleted and the user permanently banned. Fortunately, nearly all community members I've seen are friendly, or at least polite, with LGBTQ+ folk.
Regarding the meme in question. There is an argument to be made that just using the media as a meme, even of an unrelated topic, gives the author unwanted exposure. I don't think this applies in this community, or most of the fediverse (excepting places like Grad or Hexbear). We all know that JK is morally inferior to what came out of my dog this morning. Seeing this meme won't change that position, nor does it try to glorify her morals or justify her views. It is the essential meme: a well-known scene from popular culture, removed from its environment, to express an idea or sentiment that is common within this demographic.
Sorry Ada -- I was referring to myself! I originally lived on blåhaj but was banned for promoting violence against bigots and generally making hate-fuelled comments. It was not okay to be so extreme.
