When I see the word "benchmark" and don't see a methodology I get a little wary. In this case the author ran a custom benchmark from one of their projects. https://github.com/ada-url/ada/blob/ma

What I'm noting is in line with your thinking. Whatever ways AWS marketing might encourage people to do things via their "Well Architected" series of publications, the reality is that the path of least resistance with VPC net

Personally I blame the irritation and cost of setting up private subnets that can access the Internet via NAT in AWS VPCs in addition to Docker's interactions with UFW. Private VPC subnets with NAT Gateways are both unacceptably costly

This is a bizarrely emotional response to me. PyPI offered to provide a security key to make the maintainer's life easier so it's hard to see this as an "entitled" act. When I see the core infrastructure for open source

This is clearly not true. Having a second factor helps maintain security in the situation where your password is compromised (phishing is just one scenario). It isn't perfect , and can itself be defeated. However, compromising an acco

We solved this problem by paying a healthy hourly rate so that candidates don’t feel taken advantage of if we don’t move forward with them. I should note that this seemed to help offset the concerns of people with families. They definitely

This is a ham-fisted attempt to get attention using controversy, and the arguments are so weak they can't even make me mad. Computing of any kind (including software development) moves around all the time. Sometimes it's more econ

The author seems to be completely blind to the underlying issue. Lack of numeracy, much less advanced numeracy, in the general population makes it difficult to communicate about complex topics . Communication with the general population is

I was a loud proponent of this and just signed up at the $10 tier. I'm thrilled to see they put this together but still dismayed at the re-org that resulted in firing (some?) of the staff that maintained MDN.

What exists on MDN today is easily worth more to an individual than they pay (in U.S. dollars) for a single coffee in a month. Putting that towards a monthly subscription for a vital resource might not come naturally to people given the pre
