It’s still good to practice. You should be able to restore a prod backup in your sleep, ideally with the push of a button. You might _have_ backups, but it’ll still be anxiety-inducing if you haven’t practiced deploying them.

Silly Microsoft wasted hundreds of people and decades of time. Why didn’t you tell them?

An entire system that incentivizes and absolves this behavior at all levels. I’m serious. This is what power and wealth do: they allow you to break the rules that the rest of us plebs have to abide by.

Can’t you do all of those things anyway? Or stay home? I don’t see why someone’s desire for a quaint Sunday should prevent me from doing my grocery shopping. What if Sunday is my only free day?

We were never taught it, as far as I can recall. I had to start playing around with GIS stuff before I really learned about map projections.

Because making “street” drugs illegal allows you to jail any race you don’t like. And making the same drugs available as a prescription allows drug companies to make billions, negative externalities be damned. Always follow the money.

Out of curiosity, why are you running multiple EC2 instances across more than two regions?

This is happening in just about every decently-sized city. Demand has gone up, but very little new housing stock is being built.

Some suggestions: 1. If you need healthcare you get it for free or almost free. 2. If you make billions of dollars, you pay a lot more taxes. 3. Workers have as much power as their employers. 4. Everyone has access to food, water, and basic

It’s forms all the way down!

And then at the end, they don’t even really abide by those forms anyway. It’s like getting Shell to stop selling oil or Merck to stop selling drugs: Facebook isn’t going to stop doing what its entire raison d’être is until we use the iron f

This was cathartic to read, even though it’s short. Big tech has become evil. It’s mostly banal, of course (“You want to sell the fact that I like football and puppies to ad companies? Sure, who cares?”), but it’s still a net negative for s

What’s the new category? “Basic applications that somehow consume multiple gigabytes of RAM”? To be fair, I don’t think Slack pioneered that, but they certainly popularized it.

When I go to work every day, I don’t want to have to worry about whether or not our chat server is up. My job isn’t to manage chat servers, it’s to manage all the servers we actually need to get our shit done. I don’t want to get paged at 2

Let’s solve both of these problems then, which it seems like people are doing. Plus, we already know how to solve ground transport, we just refuse to actually do it (renewables, public transit, dense development, etc). Air travel is more ch

We can solve multiple problems at a time. This just reads as really defensive. Like it or not, air travel DOES have a big carbon footprint, and arguably most of it is unnecessary (we fly people across the country to help manage PowerPoint p

I was being mildly sarcastic to make a point, which is: telling people to police their speech and to make sure they don’t say anything they might regret isn’t a workable solution, because it’s impossible to predict the future. And in the co

It’s fine. You just have to make sure you never say anything that could ever possibly be misinterpreted or used against you by anyone ever for the rest of your or your children’s lives. How hard could that be?

But they can still say “no”. Then what?

Indeed! I wanted to comment on a post about journaling so it seemed like a clever username. :)

I don’t think you need to be quite so methodical.. Just try it. If you don’t like it, adjust a bit or stop. Or don’t try it at all. The blog post isn’t meant to be insulting or some kind of assault on people who don’t journal.
