They are certainly having g a poor track record. Most of the CEOs and managers I talk to think that it is a noble pursuit for them to be profitable because the free market determines what is moral and in the public interest. Its a pretty co

Get the government to order VC to support their investments if it is in the public interests. That's capitalism - they aren't all winners financially.

If you disagree with those politics so much just host your own instance. I know there was some concern about politics affecting the technical decisions behind Lemmy (content filter related) but it looks like cooler heads prevailed. Also, yo

It is kind of a bummer that the votes themselves aren't federated yet, even if the content is. The whole point of federation is that you should self host your own so that you have ownership over the computing that powers your social me

It's a good day if I can get through it without creating an account.

Yeah, I don't really understand why people are making a big deal about this. Two lambda functions passing data to step functions? Not exactly the best serverless architecture. And if you think about the problem of checking video stream

They could sue, they could drop them as a client and not bid, they could offer reduced services like they already do with gov cloud, there are a lot of ways this could play out. Apple has shown that private corporations aren't ready to

I'm not mad. But if your goal is to open source code and software developed with taxpayer money, its not as straightforward as this initiative makes it out to be.

But that is how the government operates - what is the point of requiring the government to have all the software they develop be open source when they are contracting out all software development to contractors that develop on proprietary p

Obviously there is classified technical information that isn't public, but the DoD is a huge Redhat shop. Food for thought.

I am in support of it too, ultimately, but after working on federal government software projects, it is a very huge uphill battle. Consider this: your trying to build a grants management system for Defense contractors in Afghanistan. You wa

It's a BPM product. If you have a highly regulated workflow that has to be changed a lot by multiple parties, these products start to make sense. The AWS step functions aren't that great in the BPM and workflow automation either,

Large venture capitalist depositors demanding to pull out billions of dollars because of relatively minor liquidity risk definitely contributed to the bank run though.

It's really important to make this distinction: those bonds were, and still are safe investments, guaranteed by the full faith and credit of the United States Government. The issue is that you have to wait for them to mature. So SVB ha

This is what I don't understand about Docker's policy switch. Aren't all the companies that would potentially pay them just going to switch to one of the main CSPs Container Registry service?

Have you ever been tempted to build a giant cyberpunk style magnifying glass into the computer to make the screen bigger?

Isn't the login with google just an OAuth thing? Most of the time, websites that use OAuth still want me to make an account with them. It's like, what is the point? Are people just implementing OAuth and then later deciding that t

Just wanted to chime in and say that I get excellent results with a laptop homeserver. I haven't tried to hard looking into it's exact power consumption, but for the load I use it for it seems to be negligible. I'm not stream

This is too big of a discussion to have in hacker news comments. But the decline in R&D spending, the amount of grants drug companies accept from the government, the amount of government funded research that goes into new medicines, the

I'm not sure that making it harder for people to synthesize medicine is a good thing.

This world view isn't compatible with the capital intensive firms we see. High property, holding, and estate taxes are coming.

At the end of the day, no matter what the analogy is, there is no logic-ing your way through this. The reality is that the RIAA lobbies to have laws that protect their intellectual property, even at the cost of consumer rights. The RIAA wou

People don't use 1.1.1.1 1.0.0.1 (cloudflare) for external dns? It also resolves http/s requests, so it's usually my go to external endpoint for testing and troubleshooting. google.com is still my go to for domain resolution

Most of the large contractors are turning around and subcontracting to these smaller companies. At least, that has been my experience in government contracts and bids. Probably better that way, since the contractor takes all the risks that
