As someone who has had to deal with two cloud-phobic industries now (auto and healthcare). I have to say the hope of the hybrid cloud being a differentiator, for RedHat/IBM, is misplaced. Getting these players into the cloud is always

Most of EC2 and S3 product development happened in South Africa. The original technical lead for AWS was South African, and was about to move back from Seattle after the original AWS pitch meeting. Bezos liked the idea so much that he let h

It’s hardly having their cake and eating it too. It’s the equivalent to wanting placement at a news vendor. Your API idea isn’t a bad one, but I hardly think that these news organizations are at fault for wanting to be discoverable, while a

Why doesn’t it scale? People used to have to pay for access to all of these articles (and still do BTW). It’s actually become way cheaper to read a wide variety of sources. Your statement comes off as really entitled.

It is an odd work. Homer’s works are well constructed, but extemporized from, probably, many public performances. However Virgil was more Tolkien than Homer, writing an epic divorced from public performance. Personally I think to ascribe an

I don't know that I am going to trust google's consumer product offerings anymore. Inbox became central to my life, now this. I am now going to operate under the presupposition that a google product is not a reliable product.

Companies don’t give vehement denials like this unless they’re telling the truth. People claiming gag orders are crazy, mostly for thinking that Apple, or anyone else for that matter, would ever sign a document forcing them to lie to their

Work on things that are interesting to you, if you are bored for too long your skills will atrophy. If you are interested in your work, being indispensable to your company will be a natural result.

I do think it has become unfortunate that the choices in a lot of online communities is either "PC police" or "White nationalism". I know people will be quick to proclaim that this is a false choice, but I think Linus co

I do think that you can get the same software experience in NYC, Boston, Seattle, and probably Austin too. I always tell people to start their careers in a big city or SV, but it really is an atrocious area to raise a family. California is

No, it's not (and BTW you need to learn how to read in order to program, so you're statement is literally false). There are still plenty of ways to be successful in this economy without learning how to program.

Your goal shouldn't be to get your child interested in programming, but fostering any natural interests you see in your child and encouraging those. If your child has an abysmal aptitude for logic, but is incredibly creative or body-or

While the idea of only paying for what you use seems to be an interesting proposition with serverless. I think the true cost savings come in no longer having to manage VMs. With that in mind the coldstart problem can be avoided entirely wit

“Beget from noble routes” to me can be translated: Accomplish your goals in an honorable way. Something akin to: “The ends don’t justify the means”.
