There's always something hot to hate on. I'm getting flashbacks to the days where everyone was going "nosql is trash" because they all cargo culted to mongodb back in the day and then tried to do olap on it. Heck, this

It's also a saying because it's trueeee (See: Superfund sites, this event in question, climate change, highways and car based infrastructure, etc...)

this is low acale for any given public api at amazon. You should see how much kinesis/ddb/iam/sqs/cloudwatch handles (in total per region)

I mean, coralmetrics+pmet has been doing that infrastructure wide tracing for decades (albeit being slowly replaced in spots now). Back in 2014 they were still sharing a few years old (at that time) detail-level service call graph that had

Also their "stack" includes various degrees of AWS (maws, naws, and I'm sure a bunch of snowflake situations innumerable here, I mean do you count corpinfra? Controls?) Not to mention all the data center logistics

And thank God he did, amazon would have direct without the SOA enforcement. Scale issues are emergent issues. It's a phase transition.

It's where they delete entire teams and remove funding for critical infrastructure and see how well the system self-repairs It's just in this case the system is the company itself instead of just a suite of software services

CVEs don't just positively correlate with vulns, they positively correlate with importance and popularity as well. Edit oh and longevity of course

Doesn't the WARN act require 60 days notice minimum (or 60 days worth of pay and vesting off all rewards in such period) in the case dog layoffs?

Data pipelines was also a perennial shit show behind the scenes. Turns out integration is a lot of complexity even if the service is "simple" in concept and doesn't need to be so real time. I feel like data pipelines and swf

Kk, so if I want to do crimes I just gotta be a political opponent to whoever is in charge this year and no one can do anything to me. Got it.

Kind of the opposite though right? As in it dampens acceleration in any direction?

Sql is one of the coolest languages ever developed and I hate the resistance to it. It's basically applying relations over (multi)sets, and set theory can be at the root of basically all today's mathematics if you squint or trans

Nah, cdk is way better imo.

Also, consent being something that should be respected itself is a liberal social construct (that I wholeheartedly agree with). This hasn't always been the case, and still isn't everywhere today. Slavery still exists, so does mis

Who and what determines whether a human can consent? It it an age thing consistent across all humans or a developmental thing? If it's a developmental thing, well then how do you feel about those with developmental disorders (mental

I've always seen open source as more of a spectrum. On one extreme, you have gpl3 stuff coming from the church of GNU itself. Moving up the spectrum you have stuff like the Linux kernel or certain CNCF projects, which can be used in p

Imo this is notable as historically hashicorp has beaten even AWS to (cloud formation, and, thus, cdk) support for their newly launched services.

So, I don't understand -- had you known that this license change to prevent competitor use of their product, would you not have bothered to add the functionality you contributed?

IIRC some cross az traffic uses vendors' fiber (albeit definitely encrypted) but I could be completely wrong.

So, that means that land should be free, pedophilia and child porn legal, total anarchy? There's no such thing as not having the will of a group imposed on others. The best we can do is formalize a non-violent system of consensus of r

The middle class is gone now so that's kind of fitting. I like the term "working class" as in "I need to work to survive". It covers a huge breadth of the population but that's better anyway imo
