The blog of the day is 357 Magnum, with a post on the UK vs freedom.
Not sure what happens overnight, but, I notice that some mornings the CPU use at the server spikes, as may the RAM, so I restart a bunch of times, and things suddenly are fine for the rest of the day.
All posts here are my views. None represent my employer. If ye can prove me wrong, so be it. Ye can rant and rave at me, but be mostly polite to any other commentors. I will put up with quite a bit, but be mostly respectful to others.

Thanks for the link…
I have been have problems – not on a server – with general garbage collection, so that memory usage runs wild, and then CPU. Sometimes killing the tasks and restarting them will suffice, but often a restart is required.
People just don’t do proper systems design anymore.
Bwaha!

What happened?
House sends funding package ending partial shutdown to Trump’s desk.
Lawmakers voted 217-214 to pass the compromise funding package, which cleared the Senate late Friday and keeps about 97% of the government operating through Sept. 30.
Twenty-one Republicans voted against the Trump-backed deal, but 21 Democrats crossed over for a bipartisan result.
Recently from the libertarian Think Tank, The Cato Institute…
The government first began gathering detailed information on benefits use by citizenship status in 1994. The data show:
+For each year from 1994 to 2023, the US immigrant population generated more in taxes than they received in benefits from all levels of government.
+Over that period, immigrants created a cumulative fiscal surplus of $14.5 trillion in real 2024 US dollars, including $3.9 trillion in savings on interest on the debt.
+Without immigrants, US government public debt at all levels would be at least 205 percent of gross domestic product (GDP)—nearly twice its 2023 level.
