I work in both AWS and Azure and let me tell you, one thing I absolutely love about Azure is their portal. It’s like AWS 2.0 where all the cloud cruft is abstracted away and all that is left is the knobs you actually need to turn, and how t

Tangentially related, I finished “You Should Quit Reddit” by Jacob Desforges yesterday, at the recommendation of a fellow HN user. Definitely worth a read if you are leaning that way already and just need a few well-reasoned arguments to se

I have a soft spot for 400/800/XL/XE versions of PAC-MAN and Donkey Kong. They are both pretty close to the arcade originals.

For someone who wants to get into systems programming professionally, is C++ going to be a hard requirement or can one mostly get away with C/Rust?

If the US government is subpoenaing Apple on your behalf, you probably have bigger problems.

Same, I drive a new model Suburban and constantly get flashed. I think it is the combination of the LED headlights and height at which they sit. I wish there was something I could do about it, but it isn't user adjustable.

Oh nice, the iPad Pro 12.9 inch has a 4:3 aspect ratio if I recall correctly, should make for a decent DOSBox screen.

As a non-religious person, I have found a lot of “meaning” in reading literary fiction. I don’t know if it has made me happier, but it has definitely scratched an existential itch.

If you have a decent view of the horizon, definitely look at satellite work. Bouncing an APRS packet off of the ISS would be a great place to start.

Something most people don't seem to understand... to retire comfortably (in the US at least) you need to consistently save some percentage of your income all of your life, or a significant portion of your income most of your life.

I am reading it now as well! I always felt like I wasn't ready , but last week I just decided to go for it. It's been on my list ever since finishing "A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man". The only other prep I did

I feel like having a kid is one of the final milestone in adult maturity. That isn’t to say that you can’t be a mature adult without kids, but the act of having them sort of fast tracks you - and you either rise to the occasion or you don’t

My R1 is quite terrible, queries only work about half the time. When it does work it has limited information/functionality. Keeping it to hack on the hardware though, it's pretty spiffy.

Since everyone is mentioning movies and television, I’ll go against the grain and mention his narration of Hemingway’s “Old Man and the Sea”. It’s a relatively short audiobook and he does a fantastic job.

Space Cowboys is a guilty pleasure of mine, most people don’t seem to know about it. I think I’ll join you this weekend.

$59.98 a year for unlimited connectivity is a pretty good deal. My kids are getting to the age where we leave them for things like soccer practice or summer camps. Not really interested in giving them a phone yet... but want them to be able

AI is developing at a pace faster than even most technologists can keep up with, let alone the layman. It has been, and continues to be an amazing ride… but for the first time today I think my worry outweighs my excitement for the future. I
