I've been kicking the tyres on this. I managed to get Kubernetes (k3s) running across a cluster of MicroVMs. Useful? No. Funny? To me, yes. https://github.com/aidansteele/microvm-fun

I recently (a couple of weeks ago) got the 6K version of this screen, the Asus PA32QCV. It has the same pixel density as my MacBook Pro, so the UI looks great. To be honest, it's enough screen real estate that I now operate with my lap

Can you say more about retatrutide for IBS? My IBS is debilitating to the point where I usually refuse to eat food on week-long work trips, because the unplanned emergency toilet trips wreak havoc with my schedule and ability to sit in meet

If you want to read more, it was called "EC2 Classic" (well, it wasn't called that before VPCs were launched!). There was a discussion about it being retired on HN here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27

I currently work at the company. Wacky words that I can find in Slack include - updog - stegosaurus - brat - flabbergasted - superbowl - crouton

I'm also based in Melbourne. I would add that all the above is true of maybe 95% of companies, but there are a few exceptions: big US-based tech companies. There are roles for devs that pay AU$250-$550K/year, including the data en

FYI I love your work with Gimlet, etc. I too would love "native" support for SSH CAs in EC2. What I ended up doing is adding a line to every EC2 userdata script that would rewrite the /home/ec2-user/.ssh/author

Can you explain what you mean by "for many years they were not [default deny]"? I've been using S3 for 10+ years and I can't remember a time when they were ever open-by-default. If you mean there were years where it was

Apple still has this program. I haven't worked as an iOS developer for a few years now, but I remember their paid "technical support incidents" were extremely high quality. It was $50 per incident, but I think that was just t

This is a great idea for a project. You should also make it work as a Docker logging driver plugin[1] so that people can easily view their local Docker container logs through Logdy [1]: https://docs.docker.com/config/co

That's actually an interesting one - it depends on your jurisdiction. E.g. in all Australian jurisdictions (and quite a few US states), one cannot consent to serious bodily harm. Some jurisdictions allow consent as a defence for "

Have you ever heard about "road trains" in Australia? We have some truly absurd allowances for how long these vehicles can get. It makes driving between capital cities a wild experience, trying to pass them (they're almost as

This was me too. I had used many substances (cannabis, ketamine, benzos, cocaine + every other stimulant under the sun) and was able to keep them in my possession and only use them at most once every 4-6 weeks, and only ever in the company

I guess it depends on what we meant when we talk about OIDC, but in system-to-system authentication (e.g. GitHub Actions to ${cloud provider}), there are no browsers involved. But that's a fairly different use-case that happens to be u

I've been using Depot for a while and I'm a fan. It has made our (GitHub Actions) builds a lot faster because the cache is always warm. It also helps a lot when building amd64 images from my arm64 Macbook - that's excruciatin

Thanks! I had somehow missed that. Feels irresponsible that it hadn't been mentioned in reporting of the changes (or maybe I missed it there too)

I'm also Australian and have ordered an EV a few months ago because of the FBT incentives. You're right that there's an extremely limited selection of vehicles in Australia. Hopefully that changes with the new favourable tax

It looks like the client is designed to connect to a publicly accessible MySQL/MSSQL server. I don’t know if that’s better or worse than a client-side database!

I was about to dispute what you said, but I realised I was running uBlock origin. What machine and browser are you using? I just used Chrome (on MacOS using an M1 Pro CPU) to run a performance profile and loading cnn.com took the following:

It might be less effort to use something like this: https://gregoryszorc.com/blog/2021/04/14/pure-rust-implement... Might even be able to modify `gon` to use that instead of Apple's `codesign` and t

Who do you think the audience is for the papers published in academic journals? I imagine the intended audience is their peers and therefore the precise, unambiguous language is much more effective at conveying the ideas. Jargon exists for

How do the outcomes compare to people with ADHD who were unmedicated? It's possible that the medicated outcomes are poor and yet still better than the unmedicated outcomes.

Out of interest, what support tier are you on? Is it the Enterprise ($15k/month minimum) tier? I've found that AWS Support will resolve any non-critical issue within at most a few hours on that tier. (Our cloud spend was $1M/

I assume they're misunderstanding/misrepresenting the CapitalOne breach.

I've been using Depot since the early days (I don't know Kyle or Jacob, just stumbled across it) It's superb. It's a drop-in replacement for `docker build` on my M1 Macbook and on GitHub Actions. I really like that they

I wonder if Steam's good refund policy comes as a result of being sued by the Australian consumer regulator back in 2014. They probably figured that if they _had_ to offer refunds in one country, they might as well build goodwill by of

Like you, I have three egg omelettes a few times a week. The mental image of someone eating twenty eggs and still being hungry made me laugh out loud.

I think that's an artifact of RDS specifically. It's dreadfully slow. An EC2 instance will launch and have SSH connectivity in 17-22 seconds in my testing. (I was testing this a fair bit a while back for a silly idea I had)

My previous technical account manager got his three initials at amazon.com. One day I might join Amazon, but I don't think I'll get my initials (A. W. S.)
