This essentially doesn’t work now either, unfortunately. A lot of the latest AAA games will only allow you to play multiplayer if your account ALSO has a verified phone number attached, and they only let you attach each number to a single a

Just a quick note to say this is nearly completely unreadable on iPhone / iOS using Safari, because it seems to assume a width greater than is available. I assume I’m not alone in hiring managers browsing HN from a phone.

Sometimes with spot bonuses though the employer can “gross up”, and I’ve more rarely (but a non-zero number of times) seen that applied to other “taxable benefits”. By grossing up they are essentially just paying you additional compensation

Exact pricing is not listed, however if you dig around on GitLab’s site [1] it says Dedicated is for purchasers of >= 2000 seats of Ultimate, plus a management fee to cover defraying the infrastructure cost, and the time to look after it

Not particularly crazy. Doesn’t seem like the Total Compensation for this person will change dramatically, although it’s worth nothing that different companies have different philosophies on how the package is structured. What’s salary, wha

I got connected to someone impacted at Twitter on Saturday, within 24 hours of them being notified they were impacted by the layoff. I talked with them for an hour that next Monday AM about the opportunities my teams have open, one of which

I’m not sure this isn’t a dated take, unfortunately. Perhaps this would have been an accurate set of statements back in 2012 or so. 1/ Roaming is a big factor (before COVID, and now in a post-COVID world too). I’ve spent more time on c

Unless eCF has made some major advancements in the last couple years, Amazon’s own retail business isn’t multi-region. So it’d be like the cobbler saying “Buy my shoes!” while wearing none, if AWS were to push everyone hard to have a multi-

Unless you’re in Focus or Pivot, you’re a free agent. When Amazon is performance managing you in any sense it isn’t up to your existing manager if you can move, it would be an L10 (VP) exception on the receiving side to allow you to move, e

Amazon runs an annual survey with typically quite high participation rates, it is very detailed, and the results are often illuminating (and like many things at Amazon, widely accessible to all people).

Hold my beer, says DigitalOcean, who are far ahead of Linode, and even other classically laissez-faire providers like Hetzner and OVH for originating scans and abusive traffic. Second only to China’s major networks is quite an achievement!

This is going to be a “How long is a piece of string?”. Each ASN will be unique, and even within any large ISP, there may be many OCA deployment sites (there won’t just be one for Virgin Media in UK) and each site will likely have subtly di

I’m not sure I’d say anything is a “fatal mistake” if it works, and this appears to? Feels like you’re coming at this from “it’s suboptimal”, calling it a fatal mistake is a bit much? I would look at it this way: Firstly, it’s just a demons

“How dare they” (from the post) limit this person to the 15GiB they paid to use. Absolute horror that you might have defined limits and be notified of the consequences before you exceed those!

But what I think that also means is Intel shipped Ice Lake some time ago and this is now a “Surprise!” moment. Behavior changes like this deserve much more fanfare and, where necessary, development activity to take place in the kernel and r
