I use 1Password, but I'm not sure storing the OTP next to the password is a good idea?

I think at scale, K8s is a good choice. I run a Discord server with like, 3,400 members now, and some of them are working at mental scale. They've claimed the same as you: K8s at scale is the only way. I would very likely agree in all

I find it's easier to use Ansible/Salt/Puppet Bolt and Packer to bake an AMI every night, update the launch template in a DB (which Terraform pulls the value from, thus there is no drift), and auto the ASG. Then you just forc

If you can't run your software locally without Docker, I'd be worried. But to answer the question, VMs have been a thing on the desktop for a very long time.

Oh it's most certainly NOT bad! It's very, very good. But it's not the end of the story. Imagine if you could press a button in a recipe book and a stove, pan, some oil, and some eggs appeared and the eggs started cooking...

I'm not forgetting that fact, I'm simply choosing to ignore such people. They're not really what the industry is about. That's not in the spirit of a healthy society. That's just leeching. Good luck to them, but the

I agree entirely. I like to call what the author is referring to as, "What-If Engineering". It's the science of thinking you'll be Google next week, so you build for that level of scale today. It involves picking extreme

I find these solutions actually make documentation harder. They're binary and proprietary in nature, locked behind a paywall if I can no longer afford the service (and what's the exportable data going to look like? XML?), And the

I've noticed a lot of AIs are a one-way street - you ask them something and they respond, but I don't think I've seen an AI being the one to ask the questions. Perhaps the claim that this particular AI is sentient would hold

Miro is deffo aimed at business, for sure. It's far more advanced than Excalidraw, by a long shot, only multiple levels.

I think the biggest difference here is the lack of LCD buttons on the duckyPad. People are able to identify icons quicker and better than they are the right key to press to get a certain action, in the case of the duckyPad. Plus, the Stream

I'm late to the party, but I do have a question. For me, reliability and data backups/recovery play an important role in setting up systems like this. I find that if I think about setting up a self-host solution, my mind goes to,
