I understand NDAs are a thing, but I still don't think I'm too comfortable with the idea of letting a bunch of third-party people look at a bunch of my internal information. And I understand this is targeting startups a lot more t

Can someone explain to me why python uses try/except so often? I see that promoted as a solution instead of; if 'bar' in input['foo'].keys(): val = input['foo']['bar'] Generally, exceptions ca

I find the attitude here from many people interesting. When I look at a bunch of rust communities, like the rust reddit or the rust discord, they are all cheering about this. But there seems to be so much hatred for AWS here that people wou

Eh, I think it varies. All of the FAANG are such a huge gap of eachother. About 6 years ago, Netflix and Google offered me far and away the most. Facebook Was Closer to them but still lower. Apple and Amazon were on par with the lower end o

This is the big reason I still use Go for a few of my projects. I would prefer to use Rust but the lack or an SDK has me waiting.

And? Thats not because "AWS" was like "OMG so smart", AWS is already well aware of this issue but lays the blame on "Shared Responsibility" and are likely annoyed that Salesforce, a partner of AWS< released

Not to sound like a jerk but why do you think this would be some "OMG" response from AWS? This is not some sort of "hacking", this is a tool that is being used to detect whether you misconfigured API access to be overly

How is this any different from PlayStation, Nintendo, and Xbox services? Not only do they get a cut of all of that revenue from those services and DLC, but the companies have to even pay for the right to make software for these devices. so

Paypal has its own issues. Such as disputes, its easier to dispute with my bank than to dispute with Paypal. My Twitch account was accessed and the person made a whole bunch of purchases on my account. Twitch customer service basically does

Yeah this article is only covering a specific attack vector, to claim that public Wifi is nearly risk free because of HTTPS is a very dangerous statement to make. The risk of public wifi was far from just having your traffic spied on.

What's the big deal if it's ring, or me with a bunch of chinese-made POE cameras and blue iris as a local server? shouldn't people have the right to set up surveillance on their own house for protection and deterrence? saying

Huge difference... Chinese company wouldn't fire them, it would give all of that data to a whole bunch of people in the government.

Modern days slavery is still slavery... Blood diamond harvesting, US prisoners used as unpaid work force, sex workers, sweat shops in foreign countries. Amazon work conditions suck, but not modern day slavery bad.

I doubt anyone will see my comment since I am a few hours late. BUT, I want to say, despite what bloomberg AND apple say, here is why I think Bloomberg failed on this report, and didn't do enough to PROVE their claims were accurate. Th

Isn't this an opt in feature? I understand free reign police surveillance is bad, but if a customer opts in, I don't see the issue?

This is a bit over my head. How does this apply to Google but not Apple? Don't they do the exact same thing? One of the arguments I saw was Google pushed its own market over others. But Apple makes it so you can't use any other ma

I've worked for a few small businesses that used suse as an alternative to RHEL. I've never worked for a large company that has. I also know a few individuals who use it for personal projects. But that's about it.

As someone who has sold on Amazon, its not as simple as you make it sound. Amazon takes my product, which I identify, and puts it in a bin at whatever warehouse. Another seller, sends in the same product, but theirs is counterfeit. Without

In the US, they are all individual "contractors". They call them Flex Drivers. They are similar to Uber drivers. Individually hired but are technically contractors. So Amazon does background checks on them but technically they are

Oh man this is great. I do a lot of Lambda functions where I parse out large data sets to be turned into MySQL data. I would open large csv files from S3 into memory by doing S3 get_objwct streams. I was hitting some memory caps. So this is

I admit I don't use SNS but the boto3 docs are usually really well documented.

Maybe its just harder to parse through then. Whenever I go through the prime videos, I have a hard time finding good content to watch outside of Amazon created series. Where as with netflix, lots of good new, exclusive stand up content and

Can't that be said for every goods manufacturer? That would be like saying their needs to be regulation on the price of DVDs. Should we eliminate the 1 dollar DVD bin at WalMart now?
