Reinventing the wheel. So many hours wasted on creating something that already existed in the form of PHP libraries or Python libraries that are written by much smarter folks. I tell my guys now, tools such as Ansible exist, don't try

I used to follow their blog and they are at the forefront of the FIRE movement. No thanks. It's crazy the length they go to in order to minimize their expense. They def have a lot of help from their family. It def is click bait and wha

We'll have more but I can't justify running six from the get go.

I looked into Nomad and my problem is having to run a minimum of six machines in a cluster for a few microservices. The argument could be made that we wouldn't need container orchestration for a few, but if we plan on scaling I don&#x2

yeah I'm not sure about your last paragraph. when I interviewed at DO, the few business folks I spoke to were adamant on taking on AWS. I kind of scoffed but hey I'm not running DO.

I have two kids (6 and 3) and if I had to do it all again I would not. I miss my old life. Not that it was anything special but the things we take for granted like grabbing a quick bite to eat at a diner or going to the bathroom becomes a c

You prob dodged a bullet then. We give out take home exercises (not my idea but whatever), and we tell the client we don't care which config mgmt you use just pick something you're comfortable with. We use TF+Ansible but we would

I remember when I interviewed with them, they were adament about catching up with AWS. I asked what they thought of Linode and they said "not in our radar." They billed themselves as an AWS competitor but I just don't see it.

For me it's going to the store and getting all the ingredients. Either I can't find it (obscure ones) or they come in bulk and I can't consume all of it after making the meals. I don't use any of these meal prep services

Can anyone confirm if they brought back the ability to select a wifi/Bluetooth connection via a drop-down from the swipe down option? You know, without having to click and go into the screen to select the device you want to connect to.

Same here though I'm leaning towards backblaze since there's no minimum.

Like many previous posters, my N5's battery is starting to die. I've changed it once and it hasn't helped. Otherwise, it's a decent phone and it has served me very well. I've thought about possibly going to the new

Why not S3? I use Arq with my Mac to back up my important doc, which gets encrypted in my S3 bucket. However, I'm still looking for a viable method to backup all my photos and videos. Right now they reside on multiple external hard dri

These guys are always hiring for the same position. Either they're too picky or people end up leaving once they join.

THis looks great, I've been looking for something like this for an existing project. Question, I notice that if I submit test msgs, it all works and displays in the development project area. However, if I open a new browser tab and nav
