Others have pointed out the concerns around negative reviews of things still subject to change, but the other aspect is just the relations with media.

I’m sure tons of journalists have been playing. And probably even working on content covering the game, but not publishing it yet. Once valve is ready for coverage they’ll have polished content ready. And valve can control the timing so that coverage happens right when they want the hype like maybe a few days before an open beta.

By covering it early you encourage other journalists to do the same, rushing out low quality content to get the views before others do. And for valve to not let any journalists see the game early to avoid this.

it does feel ambiguous though as even what you outlined misses a 4th case. if null means delete, how do I update it to set the field to null?

I assume they meant check the wattage of the car charger output. some powerbanks have displays now and can show you it’s input or output.

… All phones also have displays and should show you the same thing but don’t.

it’s not about using all 100 IP addresses for every atom

it’s about having large enough ranges to allocate them in ways that make sense instead of arbitrarily allocating them by availability

You could just show it as a percentage of max its trying to draw be default and show actual watts under a developer toggle

it’s typically up to the distribution to configure things like that, and many Linux distributions do come in both server and desktop or workstation variants like Ubuntu desktop vs Ubuntu server, or RHEL server vs RHEL Workstation

I can’t say how well they tune these things as I haven’t ran them personally, but they do exist.

You should look into IPMI console access, that’s usually the real ‘only way out of this’

SSH has a lot of complexity but it’s still the happy path with a lot of dependencies that can get in your way- is it waiting to do a reverse dns lookup on your IP? Trying to read files like your auth key from a saturated or failing disk? syncing logs?

With that said i am surprised people are having responsiveness issues under full load, are you sure you weren’t running out of memory and relying heavily on swapping?

In the US that is not legal per the GINA act. Note that that is specific to health insurance. Life insurance can legally use that data. And laws can be broken often with less penalty than the profit made from violating them. And data can be retained much longer than laws exist so the GINA act could be repealed or updated at some point allowing companies to legally use the data already acquired.
