On August 25, 1991, the Linux kernel was given to the world as a FOSS gift by a young Linus Torvalds. He is the real hero who released the Linux kernel 35 years ago for all of us w/ GNU as userland tools, GCC C/C++ and more. The rest is history. Long live Linux! www.cs.cmu.edu/~awb/linux.h...

I continue to get a chuckle about the fact that the IT industry always needs to reinvent concepts that have existed pretty much forever. Was recently watching some content about AI agent memory, and it discusses at length its evolution from: 1/6

Trying to build a go application that syncs data from an oracle database to a cmdb via vibe coding today. Most time I'm only waiting for the AI to finish work. Watching it at least gives breaks to drink beer … Is it faster? By no means. I'd have hacked that down in half of the time.

Als studierter Informatiker, der nun auch schon 17 Jahre im Beruf arbeitet, also kurzgesagt: Profi, bin ich da bei den „Hobbyinformatikern“. Windows ist absoluter Müll und zu behaupten macOS und Linux würden Gleiches tun zeugt doch ziemlich von der Ahnungslosigkeit des Herrn …

I know, but that doesn’t change the fact that it’s still in place. I don’t see any reason why time zones need to change, or why changing them would be a problem. Anything is better than this nonsense called DST.

Just try to use an OL8 on the target. Current versions of Ansible require python3.11 but with that you can‘t use dnf module as this works only with the default python3.6 …

Sven Illert @isdba.de · 15/03/2026
The problem is not on my ansible control host, that is managed perfectly by homebrew. It‘s more that it‘s hard to get the deployed code running on the remote machines which might have incompatible versions running.

Sven Illert @isdba.de · 15/03/2026
Maybe if I was using python on purpose that might be a good answer. But I don't use it in the first place, it's just a dependency, I shouldn't bother about python versions and modules whatsoever.

Sven Illert @isdba.de · 15/03/2026
python is such a mess. Trying to use a recent Ansible version with some OL8 systems for management of rpm packages with the dnf module and it fails miserably using standard installations …
