I make decisions on implementation and payment for our Enterprise use of Atlassian today (mid 6 figures per annum of spend) - and I'm definitely shopping for alternatives!
You joke, but that does seem to be happening from what I've seen - Agile Coaches are rebranding to become "AI coaches" or "AI Enablers".
Nice work.. I'm building the same thing right now. Partly because we need this and don't have the budget for Artifactory etc., and mainly to test out largely hands free, agentic development.
Considering Cook Strait is one of the most dangerous and unpredictable waters in the world - I think I'll pass on flying through it! I've had some dodgy passages through the Wellington harbour entrance - as much as this…
> The survey was conducted in January and February 2023. As an NZ based CTO - I feel things have slowed quite a bit since the start of the year. That said, the market is more buoyant than the US based on comments from…
Based off examining the HTML recently when I was trying to diagnose a problem the other month where teams refused to pay a video - no.
It's an interesting article overall - but it seems to be half written now, and half written earlier in 2022. There's no publish date on the blog article that I can see. Google seems to think it was posted 3 days ago -…
Big news? It's certainly not a topic of active conversation in NZ. It was talked about for a day or two when it was announced a while back - I haven't seen a single news article about it recently, nor has anyone talked…
Oh - I misread the comment. It's not fixed - they're all digital. Apologies.
The majority of New Zealand petrol stations display the fractional cent too. Same in Australia from memory.
Agreed. I have zero concerns that the NZ government is censoring content that it shouldn't. If that ever changes - we'd notice - and we'd make people aware of it.
Interesting read. My grandfather was the "cigarette officer" in Stalag Luft III (the Great Escape PoW camp). His duty was the distribution of the incoming Red Cross cigarettes. The job was his due to the fact that he…
I have - but did so by putting a Cloud Run nginx proxy between Cloudflare and Webflow. I haven't had issues with Cloudflare blocking IPs - however the site in question is rather low traffic, so we probably don't pop up…
huh, so that's what's happening to me. I was wondering what the likely cause of the kernel panic issue might be. This might be the impetus I needed to try one of these Mac docker alternatives.
That's a rather sensationalist headline. Written by an Australian looking at graphs, rather than having a feel for what's going on. I'm sure he's a capable economist, but based on what I see, New Zealand is not…
I know a guy doing this - ex-Typhoon / Tornado pilot, retired. Went over there earlier this year. The lure to fly fighter planes again was a big draw - plus the massive sack of cash. He said it wasn't weapons training…
My understanding is that it could be made to work, but Starlink came along and clearly solved the problem of delivering high speed internet to remote areas better.
New Zealand does not require ID at the voting booth. We would generally be considered to be near the top of the list for "remotely democratic countries". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voter_identification_laws#New_...…
Angular was a reasonable choice - it's well suited to "enterprise" web applications as it has standard ways of doing things the Angular way in contrast to React which has 3 - 5 options for different things. Certainly…
Not sure these "market share" competitions are very useful. Includes SaaS cloud revenue for MSFT - which is the largest portion - an area where AWS doesn't compete (well, not meaningfully). Also, in the past didn't MSFT…
Assuming these airships are VTOL and can land on non-runway surfaces (e.g. large open fields) you'd think this would beat airplanes by a lot more than 20% overall as you wouldn't have the additional costs of getting the…
That was a detailed post. Fellow kiwi and parent of a T1D diagnosed at the same age. Our kid is now 16, so I'm pleased to have the toddler years behind us. That said, teenage years bring different challenges. I wish…
Good point on the sustained usage changing the economics at the scale they're at, I didn't really factor that in. The pricing calculation is even more complex than it seems. Cloud Run doesn't charge per request if you…
Rather surprised they didn't migrate from App Engine to Cloud Run. This would seem like the simpler and more direct migration path.
It looks like with this service the user who can generate a TOTP can't see the backing seed. Therefore, if they leave, and get removed from Slack, they can't generate a code. If you just shared the seed then everytime…
