Pretty sure this is the same person who made "your flowing data" many years ago. Assuming it is, that was a really cool project! You could follow their twitter account and DM semi-structured messages at it. He would generate perso

It's precisely this kind of toxic environment that suffers most under microservices. It's far better to have systems in place that fail with culture this broken than one that enables it to limp along.

Funny that there's another trending post titled, "Don't be a meat proxy," just above this proposal that we literally meat-proxy all the code. Whenever I encounter an especially preposterous proposal like this one, I like

Kubernetes is an attempt to solve the problems that come from deploying, Microservices™ across a gigantic enterprise with hundreds (or thousands) of contributors. If you are one person and just need to expose a handful of macro-services, Ku

Mark the date. If this passes antitrust review (unlikely imo), Stripe is about to be destroyed by a culture virus that they *paid* for.

Early in my career, when I was dealing more with bottom-tier customers, the first 3 companies tried to stiff me. They were all surprised to learn that they couldn't do much without the source material that they never paid for. One of t

This is why, as a contractor, you never, never, ever transfer source materials until the bill has been paid. If a company insists on working inside their version control system, insist that each biweekly payment be submitted in advance.

That's a great point. I'm probably wrong, but I still don't think they'll waste this opportunity to figure out how to cram digital id through. Perhaps that will be how they will make it more broadly available.

Prediction: This ban will be used to force hardware and OS-level Digital ID down our throats as a "safety measure" to ensure people are "Citizens" before accessing AI technology. Whatever last vestiges of privacy we stil

Go ahead. Click into any of your Google Photo albums. Just as we all surely hoped and desperately needed, the title is finally using a comic-sans-inspired font face. Old man shakes fist at cloud.

Was at the big G many years ago. It was long series of incredible and impressive feats of truly singular engineering talent continuously wasted solving problems of our own making that shouldn’t have existed in the first place.

I agree, this is a common story and your point stands for some significant percentage of the complaints. It should be made clear though, that some of us helped spend many millions in obviously wasteful on-prem infra in the nineties, bought

Like OP, I was an AWS booster for many years (also a Heroku lover), but fell out of love about 10 years ago for the same reasons. - It felt like far too much complexity just to do simple things. - The obvious attempts to trap customers with

I worked at Google. I know there are tons and tons of great and well meaning people working there. This is the kind of thing that would make me crazy. People there be like, “but I’m not evil! I’ll never do anything bad with all of this incr

You'll also find your CI build times and flakey failures can be cut down massively by doing this.

For the newer players who have gotten into continuous integration and containerized builds, consider checking on your systems to be sure you're not pulling 'latest' across a bunch of packages with every build. We set up our b

Indeed. Rust compile times are shockingly bad, especially compared to Zig.

by anymouse123456 5mo ago
This is a huge loss for the zig language and community. As a fan of the language, I hope it leads to some reflection on things that might need to change moving forward.

Thanks for the context! An ashtray is such a temporally rooted object, the phrase, "throwing around ashtrays," immediately conjures a bunch of peripheral concrete imagery. I imagine there will soon be generations of young people w

Some of us still work on embedded systems with real-time guarantees. Believe it or not, at least some of those modern practices (unit testing, CI, etc) do make a big (positive) difference there.

These parts are in a massive number of retail smart switches 3d printers and iOT devices. They are definitely beyond a hobby device. They're made well, designed well and the libraries are some of the best in class. My concern is purely

I did choose very expensive options (high CRI and ~$14/ea), but I think the problem is that I have enclosed glass lamps from the 60's that don't ventilate heat properly for the LEDs, so they fail every year or 2, just like th

Since the Snowden leaks in 2013, it just doesn't make sense that *any* foreign customers would put US technology inside their firewall. But they do. It shocks me even more that any Western customer would do the same with network-connec
