Nearly 25% of U.S. workers are "functionally unemployed," economic analysis finds

Reply in thread

Because of the lack of income majority of the population, companies have chosen to pivot to a more luxury focused economy. They are the only group to have actual wage growth.

We really need to revamp labor lwas in the US. Minimum wage has not increased in 20 years and there are two many motivations for companies to hire employees at a part time level so they need multiple jobs just to make ends meet. A few policies could correct that.

  1. Medicare for all means no requirements for employers to provide health insurance for employees regardless of hours worked.
  2. Mandatory vacation time based on hours worked. 4 weeks or equivalent for workers means companies will need to hire for the amount of time an employee is needed instead of multiple employees being part time.
  3. Full time employee minimum ratios. Make companies have a certain percentage of their employees be full time. If they need to go below that limit they need to justify it to labor boards. They will need to renew that exception each year.

You are correct that they restart a container that has stopped because of a bad exit. I meant a container that has completely disappeared due to running out of storage on the system. Given, that is a failure of configuration to begin with.

Docker compose definitely works for most people, so I would feel pressured to swap.

There is one instance where Quadlets would have fixed an issue we ran into at work. We had a Kafka instance whose container died and went away because we ran out of space on the server. Compose doesn't recreate containers on failure, so I was called in to fix the issue. Quadlets treats containers as disposable, so it would have recreated it as soon as it went away. The root of the issue was a bad logging config that we fixed on the next business day.

The security of Rocky is solid and RL 10 is supported for quite a long time. I'm also used to RHEL based systems at work, as we target Red Hat.

That being said, I wouldn't recommend it for most people. SELinux can be annoying to deal with and can cause issues where it isn't obvious that SELinux is the cause.

If I were to chose again, I would probably just pick Debian as most of my workloads are just running in containers or VMs. The only services running on the host are NFS and Samba.

I migrated from docker containers on Unraid to using quadlets on RockyLinux. The Podlet utility helped a bit with taking an existing docker container and converting it to a quadlet. Also did thorough testing in a VM before swapping my server.

It does have a larger file size compared to compose, sure. The big advantage of quadlets is that systemd will handle things in the event of a failure. It makes it a great option for production environments where you will not need to update your config files as much. It also allows you to have more control over when each application starts, if they rely on a specific disk mount or service running on the system. I'm sure someone else can provide more benefits who use them in a production environment.

Browns coach Todd Monken clarified whether Deshaun Watson's comments would impact QB battle

But if Monken is to be believed, Watson's remarks won't impact his final decision.

In Saturday's preseason loss to the Bills, Watson was booed heavily by his home fans, and he called the reception disrespectful and personal. Watson has been atrocious since joining the Browns on a fully guaranteed contract in 2022 amid sexual misconduct allegations. He missed all of last season with a torn Achilles suffered in 2024, so Saturday was his first game back in front of the Cleveland crowd.

Speaking to reporters on Sunday, Monken praised Watson's work ethic this preseason and understood why he would be frustrated about getting booed at home.

They wouldn't be able to pay the creators due to sanctions anyways. Could be seen as a positive because it allows the creators to put pressure on the US to lift the sanctions on the country.
