We're building on .Net 5 with docker, unfortunately with cold starts it's not a good fit for client-serving APIs. Looking very much forward to drop docker and use native lambda support.

Do I read the decks properly, or do they have only 2331 subscribers for Q4 2021? This looks like a super low for such big valuations of their disruptive product.

I'm sceptic - I can't run anything with reasonable latency without using ASIO4ALL on my built-in Realtek sound card. Mainboard is with B450 chipset, from around 2017.

Let's assume that the author actually believes that music sounds better with this hardware, and it's not paid-for review. Would it be ethical to push such person through double-blind test, which (I assume) would disprove that ther

I generally like to think about this from opposite direction: miners and bitcoin investors are incentivised for bitcoin to be used and for the price to go up. Why miners? Because their main source of income is not the transaction fee, but b

Of course not :) They are targeted towards non-techies. Look at emails content, there's domain which looks funky and a URL you're asked to click -> that's phishing for sure! Which begs a question: why they haven't &qu

My company makes everyone take phishing training twice a year, yet at the same time they pay for services that send emails looking like phishing. Outlook of course shows the warning "This email originated from outside of organization.

Most people don't just rent a single GPU to run something outside of training. A10 tensors are a faster version of T4, which are cheaper for running inference (albeit slower than typical GPU). Cheapest reasonable GPU instance you can g

I haven't seen anyone changing the default user logins for their instances in AWS, though - everyone uses ubuntu, ec2-user, or whatever is the default of their distribution.

Depends on the definition, and final decision of linguists. It's an ongoing controversy in Poland for two languages / dialects: Kashubski language and Silesian language. Both are strictly used only by regional minorities, both are

ZFS on Ubuntu requires root to destroy snapshots, I don't know about ZFS on root, but I would guess the same.

It's also New Testament, but the "Riches" is capitalized in specific translation you're using, it's not capitalized in New King James, and neither in New International Version. I'd wager it's relatively mo

Letter to Philippians is much younger history, though. I don't recall Old Testament ever mixing meaning of "gods" and hedonism.

If you need XOR of two boolean values, you can just "z = x != y". That's my favorite XOR trick, as it's easily understandable and readable.

Free tier gives you a ton of usage across most of the services, but definitely not enough to fully host a side project. But e.g. you can use RDS (database hosting), S3, EC2, text to speech and do whatever you want in a small scale for a yea

And some of those was my team and our CI. We were capable of replacing old hand-written video player based off DirectX.net in an enterprise app - mainly due to new requirements for supported codecs and video formats. No more list of codecs

I'm one as well, but I think the OP meant that the company is not trying to keep the existing experienced employees and just replacing them when they leave. My company started doing the same and erosion of knowledge is really bad.

rand() produces linear distributon, which is uniform. Do I understand properly that rand() + rand() would return normal distribution, so #2, for which you can determine the non uniformity? What would be a proper first step to harden API for

Around 2 years ago in S3 there was an interesting quote issue - official documentation stated quotas per S3 prefix (kind of like folder path), but in practice it turned out only first 20+ characters of a prefix were taken into account for q

If you're using "background GC" (new default), they are doing GC in multiple steps, by running part of GC work in another thread - there are still parts which require suspension of managed threads. Here's some more insig

One pro of ZFS over RAID1 is that ZFS is file based and not volume based, so in case of recreating mirror disks (or general resilvering) you only copy data, not the whole volume.

I've set up internal CA using minica [0] and trusted that CA in Chrome and Firefox with success. Each host got it's own key, and I'm not even using proper DNS server - I use Avahi, so all of my hosts are available as somehost
