That's how unions work by default everywhere else too. It's just more common for entire industries to be unionized (through momentum, not outright obligation) outside the US.

That's all correct in theory, but in my experience these things still happen and are usually outgrowths of bad engineering culture / shadow IT / not wanting to be reliant on your cloud infra / platform team (often for ir

To be fair, AWS also used the exact term when we moved a project out of a tiny expensive to operate (though lack of scale) datacenter that only hadn't been retired because we had a 30+ year old COBOL app suite on a z system.

It's at least more predictable. You don't pay for staff with datacenter skills (sort of in short supply) and you don't need to make large investments early on to build the datacenter and you don't have a huge headache if

The thing is, Terraform Cloud could've been good, but it's not. And now it prices a K8S cluster the same as a DNS record. (and both too high for glorified object storage) And Vault Enterprise could've been something I can jus

RAAS (Runway Awareness and Advisory System), the equivalent system installed on aircraft, also needs to become standard equipment. It is for some airlines, but it is by no means mandatory.

Quite a few people in my social circle that I'd consider essential to the event and its culture have stated they will not attend due to the lack of any COVID precautions, announced in a blog post that was a bit tone deaf. That might fa

It's just that you made a weird jump from "people attending Israel-hosted events" to "arab Israeli citizens" and I'm not sure how it happened. Though yes, as I said, I'd consider the difficulty there simil

Far for me to defend the policies of most countries in Africa, but... you do realize a lot of Africa in aggregate is closer to christian ethnonationalism of the US far right than radical islam, and that these policies exist regardless of ma

Every place is a tradeoff. The US can be inaccessible through sheer travel cost too. And it is absolutely true that it is a western double standard. Football tournaments in gulf states and all. I was more upset the top comment in this threa

They're still not the same thing. TSA and Israeli customs might suck, but at worst you get turned around. You manage to get past, let's say, Saudi customs as a trans person, get ready for jail time for the crime of existing. Not c

Reductive to pretend this boils down to "don't do events where bad politics" when we're talking about participant safety. The entirety of the US would get a lifetime ban if we did that.

That happens to games all the time. This is one very unique grudge to hold. I'd be happy that Alyx happened at all. Valve could never live up to expectations for Episode 3 / Half Life 3 anyway.
