The chance of this not having a fork keeping security updates running is effectively zero.

Given that Ryanair used to charge to print a boarding pass at the airport, it seems pretty likely their response will just be to do so again. This is a company which literally hates its customers.

To be clear, Apple and Google both have huge UK presence. I don't know the extent of Google, but Apple has offices with thousands of people working in them. Compliance with what the UK wants in this regard is not optional. What the ori

The other day I clicked "share" on a PowerPoint presentation saved in OneDrive, and it reverted to a version several hours old, losing that work. This is a typical experience using any of the Office products. Copilot is not "

Longbridge is not inherently a worse place to manufacture cars than Munich, South Carolina or even Detroit.

Indeed, I also believe that to be the case but went with the trivial counterexample! Probably best to be explicit though.

> collect money from UK citizens This is quite obviously incorrect. I am a UK citizen, but live in the US. No company needs a UK presence to collect money from me.

So? They predate a standard which was basically extracted from Docker.

Manifestly not - Cuomo ran as an independent, and a Republican did run.

That is the major difference - clients track their read offsets rather than the structure removing messages. There aren't really "listeners" in the sense of a pub-sub?

To be any use staging environments should be scientific tests. They should prove that a given change, if it goes to production, will work. You cannot do this if you're changing more than that one thing. The only way to make this work r

I don't know about "not targeting enterprise" being the problem here - it's super common to find "enterprise" .NET APIs that return 200 for every possible condition and put some error text as a JSON blob in the

Then you’d have to trust that the option does what it says on the tin. My default for companies besides Apple is not to, too many scumbags have poisoned the well.

You really can trivially do UniFi protect. Barely even have to know networking. I have it along with vtech monitors, works flawlessly.

by jen20 1y ago
Of course you don’t need it. But it’s very useful, especially living in a house with a layout that doesn’t lend itself to hearing a pin drop in the next room. The v-tech ones are fine though. No need for anything with an Internet connection

This is the reason I refused to buy Nanit cameras, instead opting for unconnected models. E2E encryption is table stakes.

I do indeed think that there is unlikely to be a single professional model in a Best Buy - a Thinkpad, a professional-grade Dell without crapware preinstalled, a System76 or a Framework. The exception of course is actually a Mac, which you

by jen20 1y ago
It is in fact very difficult to buy a professional grade computer of any kind from Best Buy, let alone something like a Thinkpad with reasonable specs. You might luck out and be in a city with a micro center, but you probably won’t. If I’m

YMMV. I throw away the non-corded variants because they rarely fit in the spaces that people think to put outlets, especially as the chargers have grown and (particularly) train operators love putting outlets attached to tables with about 5

Same, largely. As were the tools they somehow managed to negotiate for inclusion on the SuperCD. Sadly paulspages.co.uk appears to be down. It would be great to recover the screen cam videos for YouTube though! I did see a memorial recently

PC Plus in the days of Paul Stephens (RIP) and Dave Pearman was hands down the best computing managazine around. I believe I have every issue from -1994-2000 with the exception of Feb 97 (long story) but these ones predate me sadly.

With the exception of Amazon, anyone in this situation already has a third-party product in their critical path - AWS itself.

by jen20 1y ago
I would be interested in a follow up in 2-3 years as to whether you've had fewer issues with a multi-cloud setup than just AWS. My suspicion is that will not be the case.

That is absolutely not what fiduciary duty means, unless you missed scare quotes and a /s.

It's interesting they ever exposed it at all really! I don't think you can use Google's Spanner-based etcd replacement for a self-managed Kubernetes cluster, for example.

AFAIK all the hyperscalers have replaced etcd for their managed Kubernetes services [1], [2], [3] - though Azure is the least clear about what they actually use currently. [1]: https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/containers&#x
