Wouldn't want to be a Roscosmos higher-up right now. I hope they manage to stay away from windows on higher floors.

This was supposed to be Putin's triumph over the 'degenerate west'.

The reason communications with the Voyager 1/2 twin probes have lasted for like 45 years:

Voyager 2 is equipped with three Multihundred-Watt radioisotope thermoelectric generators (MHW RTG). Each RTG includes 24 pressed plutonium oxide spheres, and provided enough heat to generate approximately 157 W of electrical power at launch.

Does anyone have any experiences to share about the performance differences between regular RDS/MySQL and Aurora for MySQL (I/O optimized config)?

(The article is about the PostgreSQL variant.)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benevolent_dictator_for_life has a list of BDFLs. Bram is the first BDFL in that list who has passed away. We're in for a generational shift the coming decade(s). It makes sense to prepare - that is how you preserve a legacy, and the community.

I've been impressed with how Bram's passing has been handled by his family and friends with respect to his legacy and the future of vim.
