It was so fun reinstalling old terraform versions so I could unfuck my cluster infra... not to mention the joy of finding they removed the .13->.14 migration command in .14 so you have to roll alllll the way back... Good times indeed.

I wish the founders the best but I'll admit the headline did rub me the wrong way at first. Just a little too on-the-nose or something. I definitely understand trying to reach an undeserved market, just feels weird so explicitly segmen

I agree with your last paragraph but "noob" is offensive? That's just silly... it's like you said, we've all been there once and it's a useful term for quickly describing where one's at. There's no in

How timely. Just today I had to install netcat on my new workstation (I chose the gnu version) in order to test connectivity to an SMTP server. It was super helpful just to see the raw response from the server. Apparently GoDaddy blocks all

Huh, had no idea this was a more widespread thing. I don't really see it working out but maybe there's something there.

I've had the exact opposite experience trying to get support setting up a VPN to connect an on-prem server with remote clients (using self-signed certs and terraform). I'm not very familiar with Azure and I was volunteering my tim

It's the humidity that makes it so bad. You're basically sweating after a few minutes outside, even at 80-85F.

"Entropy" in this context also left me wondering. Perhaps "variance" or "deviation from the mean"? Thanks for the insights!

Right, the tiny in-group of mainstream journalists and elites use it and place way too much weight on what's being said on the platform. Outside of that, most of America (& the world?) doesn't give a crap about what blue check
