University of Toronto ☛ Thinking about how to tame the interaction of conditional GET and caching
Due to how I do caching here, Wandering Thoughts has a long standing weird HTTP behavioral quirk where a non-conditional GET for a syndication feed here can get a different answer than a conditional GET. One (technical) way to explain this issue is that the cache validity interval for non-conditional GETs is longer than the cache validity interval for conditional GETs. In theory this could be the complete explanation of the issue, but in practice there's another part to it, which is that DWiki doesn't automatically insert responses into the cache on a cache miss.

Arnaud Rebillout: Installing an older Ansible version via pipx
Latest Ansible requires Python 3.8 on the remote hosts
... and therefore, hosts running Debian Buster are now unsupported.
Monday, I updated the system on my laptop (Debian Sid), and I got the latest version of
ansible-core,2.18:$ ansible --version | head -1 ansible [core 2.18.0]To my surprise, Ansible started to fail with some remote hosts:
ansible-core requires a minimum of Python version 3.8. Current version: 3.7.3 (default, Mar 23 2024, 16:12:05) [GCC 8.3.0]
Yep, I do have to work with hosts running Debian Buster (aka. oldoldstable). While Buster is old, it's still out there, and it's still supported via Freexian’s Extended LTS.
How are we going to keep managing those machines? Obviously, we'll need an older version of Ansible.
