The problem is the prescriptive nature, i.e., being very tied to force the "sshd" into all of these examples. You need to ask more questions leading up to figuring out if sshd suggestion would even be applicable, and if you get t

So because of the timing on this article, the notes on Apple’s PE ratio are interesting to consider. Apple is now trading at a P/E ratio of 23 (Microsoft at 28), and Apple has made a point of trying to reorient / reclassify revenu

Kind-of alluded to in the article, but if you’re going to unbundle AWS, you’re going to have to figure out how to get the bandwidth 0-rated. One of amazons biggest moats (imo) is that they can realize monumental cost savings on bandwidth wh

It doesn't directly contradict what the NYTimes wrote, at all: 1. Fedex is bundling total tax expenditures (state taxes, employment taxes, who knows what, probably the whole kit) versus their federal income tax liability which is what

I was speaking more to 2b, and it shouldn’t be expensive because the other servers should spin down after you’ve migrated. You’re maybe paying for a day of overlap if that, and you’re paying for massively reduced risk. Fair point on the con

This was a fascinating read but I feel like I’m left with some more questions about what’s going on under the hood in gitlab cloud: 1. I thought gitlab was hosted in google cloud, but there’s a lot of references to e.g., a hand rolled conse
