Why does it take Google scale to address reported security vulnerabilities in a timely manner? And if something is just a personal / hobby project that you don't want to support - that's also fine. Having the security…
If you can't bother fix a critical security vulnerability in 30 days, you shouldn't be in the business of building software for others to use.
If this improves the Apple Pencil experience this could be a great improvement. Would be nice if this could be tied into Obsidian to replace the web based version somehow. The browser based ink/drawing support on iOS…
For x86_64, It's relatively easy-ish to upload your own Debian image, from Debian's generic cloud QCOW2 image, and it works just fine. I think ARM needs a bit more work if I remember correctly. (But 100% agree this…
It seems particularly crazy for Ubuntu given that Debian released their fix something like a couple weeks ago.
Given that Github seems to persistently have these scaling challenges, IMO either one of these two things must be true: 1) either they are less competent at running large scale infra vs other large tech companies 2) or…
I think this is exactly it. And IMO - there's nothing wrong with enjoying that part of it. But it may not be a high paying career like it was previously. Some people though society was paying them lots of money to type…
Posting YouTube videos can just be a hobby - it was in the beginning, and that was fine. It's OK if posting a video isn't a profitable career path. Enthusiasts > "creators". And in-video ads like these are even less…
The photos are really cool, and I do like trains and infrastructure in general. But came here to say the same thing. There is an advertising campaign in SF right now to encourage people to vote to give Muni more money…
That sounds pretty plausible. But you still have to have enough internal competency to oversee a contractor, and ask the right questions/build proper requirements and verify they are meeting them.
Building multiple diverse paths and monitoring for fiber cuts is not hard. Having 2 fiber paths is insufficient for even only moderately important workloads at a tech company. Overlapping fiber cuts happen. For…
You certainly don’t need to run this over public Internet to get resiliency over multiple paths.
That seems more than merely plausible given current tensions and the location/timing connection with NYC and UN.
I assume it was sarcasm, Rufus is an Amazon AI product.
If they don't have the problems that other people are having...maybe they don't need that complexity. Different use cases can use different solutions. An Army unit crossing rocky and muddy terrain might want tracked…
I wasn't directly involved, but working in a couple of shops that used GH, I think they really steered people away from GHE, my impression was it's a product they don't really want to support - I vaguely recall hearing…
Ah sounds like you actually might have been there. I'm sure you must have some interesting stories from that time
I'm not sure if it was entirely true, but there are stories that after Microsoft bought Hotmail in the mid-90's, they quickly attempted to move them from FreeBSD (?) to Windows NT. But it failed miserably, and they went…
If you can't trust them to follow the very easy directions of "throw away the single use syringe", how likely is it that they are going to follow the much more complicated process of properly sanitizing the glass…
In the mid-2000's I briefly worked for a company that did this at a firmware level ("write-blocked firmware") for USB drive adapters (IDE / SATA / whatever IDE variant laptops were using / etc). This was apparently very…
This is my opinion only, I'm sure some have had different experiences - but: Azure's success as a cloud provider is mostly a result of their sales team and having an existing relationship with non-technical leadership.…
Everyone agrees their community and moderators turned toxic. But why? Was it inevitable that people would turn bitter / jaded after answering questions for years? Was it wrong incentives from StackOverflow itself? The…
Why should people in the nice dense efficient area subsidize everyone else via PG&E? Pay your fair share.
Given the buzzword, social media, and advertising infested garbage that ~80% of news sites have turned into...it's hard to sympathize with them.
I wouldn't consider myself anti-transit - before Covid I took BART every work day and currently walk to my office. And have never regularly commuted by car in the Bay Area. But in SF, we seem to keep throwing money at…
