This is what most podcasts do though. The review of 'Alien' sounded like Armchair expert and The Big Picture all rolled into one. Lots of gushing there. Hard to find good movie critics. If I could get something like Video Archives

I’ve worked with on prem and now AWS. Even being on AWS I think the first part of the article is great. Nice visual and description. When on prem, scaling was an issue during event storms. But by then we at least had enough to know what th

I bought an early version of Redhat on CDs there along with my tech books. I was then able to get to my own mail and ftp server going. WBB might even get some credit for my career path.

That was the perfect trinity for me. Not sure I see it as a tragedy, but I do hate the feeling of nostalgia and knowing I can never get back to that time and place. I was down there semi-regularly from my mid-teens to early twenties. Overal

Worked with a rete engine in Tibco's CEP. This was used for utility events and deciding what if anything to be done with the event in the context of others and then route it. I've seen it similarly used with bank security and cust

Liberal democracy never won in China, not sure how it can be lost. The central piece of the blog seems to be this: "China hasn’t yet proven the superiority of its system, but its successes raise the uncomfortable question: Can this be

Interesting in the article they discuss how the introduction of the horse created a broader dependency on bison and more vulnerable by its availability. Ultimately though, smallpox is what did the most damage across N. America. Haida Gwaii

Tried rewind, it does an amazing job grabbing everything locally and the search is great. With the addition of Kin it would be an easy buy.

To add to the understanding of Penn and Teller, they love their fans and beyond. I've been to two of their shows and their efforts are to entertain and teach you about scams and confidence games so that you question what you see and ar

I get the concern here but probe requests leak so much info on who is where even with random MAC numbers that I'm not sure this feature matters.

When working at a utility twitter was great for public announcements when there were major storm events or other things people wanted event driven information for. This was done with the understanding anyone with/without an account cou

This title and article feels plucked out of my brain. Most of my work is a lot of integrations and the best way to get a room full of devs to get what is going on is via sequence diagrams. Every other method, formal or made up, is weak comp

It's dated now, but 'Silence on the Wire' was a fun read. Chapter 5 is even available for download: https://nostarch.com/silence.htm

This story sounds similar. Just yesterday I read about enshitification[0] form a HN post. What is most interesting is how Reddit has ripped a page or two from Musk's twitter playbook for enshitification. 0 - https://pluralis

This is like a game ad that doesn’t show you the actual game play. For all the arguments made the code wasn’t shown.

The book is even better. I watched the movie about a half dozen times before I read the book and was amazed that I liked the book more. And I still think the movie is great.

I would add that part of the difference is service level between the US and Germany. In Germany the outages are far less frequent and for a lot less time.

Exactly. You can see Apple struggle to build anything of quality with their software stack. Good luck making anything from this. So much great HW sadly wasted.

Just thinking of the term "movie goer". I don't hear it much and not sure it really reflects the current crop of modern cinephiles. 25 years ago I had a regular cadence with a couple of friends to grab dinner and see a movie

Similar thought. Article states you can use both arms/legs to lift and one to place down. Both arms to do the curl up, one arm to bring down. Both legs on the the leg press machine up, one down. Butlers likely would also work, but wasn

I see some instability with China as it has grown a stronger domestic market, which is positive, but they are going to have to more directly deal with their inefficiencies. They are and will continue to struggle to export themselves out of

I've worked with both Hadoop/Spark and Greenplum. Hadoop for pre-processing and Greenplum for analytics. There was way too much time spent on the platform and optimizations. The use of both didn't improve our workflow either,
