Are we blaming the tool here? At what extent societies are ok with tool blaming? - should we ban knives? - should we ban guns? - should we ban LLMs?

This ship has sailed when people accepted that everything lives in the cloud and companies can dictate what you can, can't and must do with your own property. The last thing they cannot take away and cannot control is offline physical

I agree with the technical aspect that ChatGPT can diagnose sickness probably better than humans. The problem is that our current workflows do not allow medical professionals to offload responsibility. I think the best scenario is to includ

This would just offload the problem to a separate entity. CAs can be (and have been) compromised.

We should use a separate system that could reliably verify which certs belong to which entity. Blockchain is a perfect solution to this. I wonder why it is not considered yet.

Yeah like how HTTPS CAs exist. There are some very nice three letter ones who can issue any certificate and your browser / OS happily accepts it.

Certificate pinning check built in when? We should have a blockchain for certificates btw. That would be such an amazing solution to this problem. You could advertise ahead of the time that you are changing certificates and we could verify

I agree with you. I am not sure what classifies as re-write. For my grep use cases rg is a prefect replacement only it is faster. From this point of view some might say it is a re-write.

What if I do this with Terraform using AWS Serverless and staying in the free tier for this workload that you are referencing instead of VMs and a load-balancer? I just don't see why people prefer the VM based approach over serverless.

NIH. I have mixed feelings towards NIH people. One bunch is the RIIR crew (ripgrep, ruff, etc.) that produces high quality re-writes with amazing performance and safety, the other bunch is who re-writing tools without any added value. I am

The fun part is that they do not understand what it means to have your "own datacentert" vs renting server in a co-lo. It does not matter if you are running on AWS on Hetzner it is somebody else's computer.

Yeah this is exactly how I see it. Thinking in terms of VMs is not going make you understand serverless.

And use IP addresses like it was 1999 again. Your IP addresses belong to exactly one location, the DNS server's config. Using a non-type safe configuration language is also meh. I am not sure why most people are unaware of Dhall...

Sure they can. I was just watching the video DHH put online about this new project and it was quite good seeing copy pasting IP addresses to YAML files still excites some people or think that this is somehow on par with a serverless offerin

Because the claim is predicated on the wrong thing. A company like uber is not looking at the price of a server but looking at the TCO of the products living in multiple verticals. TCO includes many things. https://www.columbusgl

This is great. Well most companies I migrate to the cloud are not running a single workload that fits on a single server. Most companies that save a lot by moving to the cloud are the ones which have several workloads, multiple products, te
