    You should have rolling log files of limited size and limited quantity. The issue isn’t that it’s a text file, it’s that they’re not following pretty standard logging procedures to prevent this kind of thing and make logs more useful.

    Essentially, when your log file reaches a configured size, it should create a new one and start writing into that, deleting the oldest if there are more log files than your configured limit.

    This prevents runaway logging like this, and also lets you store more logging info than you can easily open and go through in one document. If you want to store 20 gb of logs, having all of that in one file will make it difficult to go through. 10 2 gb log files is much easier. That’s not so much a consumer issue, but that’s the jist of it.




  • Just came out to my cousin! Only extended family member to know. I told my sister a month after I knew, I knew she’d be supportive. Talked about it with my dad, he doesn’t really get it but loves me and is happy for me. He’s relatively old, and struggles with other people’s name and pronoun changes, so I doubt he’ll do well with mine if/when that happens, but that doesn’t matter to me much. Haven’t told my mother yet.
