»Linux 34. Geburtstag – Eine Erfolgsgeschichte:
Vor 34 Jahren wurde Linux zum ersten Mal öffentlich angekündigt. Seitdem hat sich das freie Betriebssystem zu einer wichtigen Größe im Technikbereich entwickelt.«
Happy Birthday Linux und dass du weiterhin unser OS für jegliche IT-Lösungen bleibst und ein großes Danke an @torvalds, dein Entwickler.

🚨 SurrealDB is sacrificing data durability to make benchmarks look better
｢ TL;DR: If you are a SurrealDB user running any SurrealDB instance backed by the RocksDB or SurrealKV storage backends you MUST EXPLICITLY set SURREAL_SYNC_DATA=true in your environment variables otherwise your instance is NOT crash safe and can very easily corrupt ｣
