  • After which ctrl+f " in" takes you to the correct chapters. I do agree that a direct link would be more helpful.
    And for learning postgresql I agree it isn’t very helpful - using their tutorial links, w3schools or something like udemy if you prefer video format is the way to go in that use case.

    I remember back when you were told to learn to work with the documentation, not memorize it, because you will always have access to it as a reference. Maybe bookmarking reference books/documentation will make a come back as the search engines degrade.





  • For details follow the link. This is nothing more than the headlines.

    Finances
    The GNOME Foundation reserves policy says that the buffer is too low to run at a deficit any longer, which it has done for three years. This years budget is a break-even budget.

    Strategy & Fundraising
    A five year strategic plan has been prepared and a draft approved by the board. A variety of fundraising activies will be launched over the coming months.

    Board Development
    More directors are being added to reduce workload on individual board members. Non-voting officer seats will be added for the same reason.

    Elections
    Annual board elections is coming up, 6 seats are being elected.







  • If you go for SSD another thing to think about is the TBW on them. Buying a low endurance SSD might save some electricity but will cost more in SSDs over time. Example:
    Crucial P3 Plus M.2 NVMe SSD 2TB (2.67W on your link) has 440TBW compared to Kingston Fury Renegade M.2 NVMe SSD Gen 4 2TB (4.92W on your link) with 2000TBW.
    Those few watts you save on using the Crucial P3 Plus will be less than the extra cost in buying new SSDs earlier.
    The site I checked TBW on has the Kingston Fury at $9.4 more than the Crucial P3 Plus.

    I think proper datacenter 3.5’’ HDDs will give you the most efficient Wattage per TB disk space
    Seagate Exos X20 Harddisk ST20000NM007D 20TB SATA-600 7200rpm is supposed to have
    Power Consumption 5.4 Watt (idle) | 9.4 Watt (random read) | 6.4 Watt (random write)
