Isn't this a perfect case for why SAAS stocks have been puking all year? I certainly don't think Zendesk's core business is threatened here, and I have no desire to replace Zendesk with a custom solution. But Zendesk's…
Sure, in the case of private equity rollups in HVAC and electric and plumbing you often get higher rates but professionalized systems including real contracts, phone answering, emailed invoices, real quotes, real terms,…
Same. I knew exactly one student reprimanded for plagiarism in four years. The idea of cheating on a test was absurd.
When the IT department is also the developer of the software, instructors will demand their feature be included in the software: they need a gradebook column that counts as extra credit, missing work, a dropped score,…
Europe will financialize everything just slower and with more regulation. Branded credit cards are coming. See Brussels Airlines and Mastercard A well optimized domestic USA airline makes money from credit cards,…
What is the simple explanation for the terrible support by Firefox and Safari? I figured this was relatively low-hanging fruit, widely used, a big boost for performance (date pickers often load 100s of locales and…
Any opinions you can share re opensaml for Java?
This is very sensible. Unfortunately, I'm not aware of any states incentivizing demand. I suppose you could argue that license fees have not gone up at the CPI rate, so this is a discount of sorts. There are small…
I would love to hear from a Vanguard employee on their tech challenges, e.g., why is the client web interface significantly worse than competitors? Or is it purposeful? E.g., slow down, trade less?!
Do you think the custom-build approach predominant in the U.S. (where engines are designed to specific local needs) is a key factor behind the steep price hikes and lengthy lead times, as opposed to the more…
Music playing on Youtube in Chrome, Airpods in, the desktop and the sandbox/demo just don't work.
Most of us care only about coding performance, and Sonnet 3.5 has been such a giant winner that we don't get too excited about the latest model from Google.
Ultimately they are buying the shares of all existing shareholders. Wiz tells Google who the shareholders are after all triggers of options to shares are resolved. Then Google wires each shareholder after the signatures…
The classname "lowagie" will live forever in the memory of Java developers, but we've all abandoned itext for the fork: https://github.com/LibrePDF/OpenPDF
Doubling bandwidth available to an airplane is awesome of course, but it seems like people are expecting a giant step here and not a simple doubling. It will be most noticeable in decreased latency so much better for…
I agree that the Caddy team should hide all of the config adapters, the powerful JSON configs, and just focus on Caddyfile. I was extremely skeptical that I could convert 100+ Nginx Plus configs over to Caddyfile, but…
I'm more impressed these days with the pace, activity, and helpful support from the Caddy development team: https://github.com/caddyserver/caddy/
"Our favorite holding period is forever."
Everyone hates their ISP. What are your current expectations around price and bandwidth as the Starlink service becomes more popular in your area? If you have the opportunity to have a fibre or copper connection…
What do you think would happen to the venture-capital-funded tech ecosystem and the resulting tech salaries if this were to happen?
I'm in agreement with the author: without more detail or pushback from the Google Cloud leaders, this is a really bad look for future customers. Will this well-publicized event materially alter cloud spend (e.g.,…
