Which 'opinion' would that be. The one where I write about anecdotes from the real world? We have software that does what is needed. An ERP, a CRM, a HMI, a case management system for legal etc. No need to have everyone on every t

I doubt I misunderstand it since this is what I get paid for. I'm also not suggesting this is a case of large data, ETL or anything like that. (what I'm writing about is people using it for that anyway which is what we have other

That's great, but has little to do with the 'excel is my hammer, therefore everything is an excel-shaped nail' problem. Sure, like I wrote (twice already), you might need to have some malleable rows in front of you on your lo

In the real world (which is where my example comes from) the CFO expects it in Tableau, all day, every day and isn't going to waste time on the phone with some random people who were assigned to put it in tableau. Perhaps you don'

Those feelings are nice, but Excel in most context is just a liability. The intersection where a spreadsheet is the right tool for the job, and the job is performed by someone who doesn't have many options is pretty small. In business

Indeed. Same goes for perceived 'slowness'. At the point where you're deploying to production, it should already be fire-and-forget; your local development, tests, acceptance or whatever else you have should already have been

Or (on K8S) you set your drain time to 0, the surge to 9999999% and the PDB to "screw everything". Now your deployments take 2 seconds (the time to pull down your change and run it). You also just lost all your guardrails and coll

That is exactly the reply I was hoping for. Because that brings us straight back to the native issue; users also expect the app to work in a way that is comfortable and known to them.

In those cases, those app developers aren't doing cross-platform development, but are just trying to dump their app in as many places as possible. In such a case, why not just make a PWA and call it a day? Don't need an app if you

There is a middle era between a cable in a datacenter and a misclick in a cloud. Currently, on-prem is still 1 misclick away from accidental exposure (unless it's been untouched for 20+ years). Be it with a legacy DMZ setup or a bit mo

I didn't mention there were no leaks or is no incompetence. I wrote about the amount of corners that are no longer available to be cut. Corner cutting isn't exclusive to data leaks. It impacts everything, mostly the people actuall

The entire underlying layer of possible misconfigurations is absent in the cloud. Yes, the services on top of that can still be misconfigured, but you don't get access to hosts, SANs, switches, firewalls, gateways, there isn't any

It's not really about cloud vs. on-prem, it's the fact that people cut corners and lack knowledge on-prem, and don't have the budgets to do anything about it. What you're referring to is mostly about elasticity, and it&#

That doesn't fix the issue, just tries to bypass the symptoms (and you're still on the hook, a CC isn't some magic "get out of a contract" card; even if the other party just gives up trying to collect).

Is there any data about H1B for large workforce "suppliers" vs. for individuals? As far as I know, H1B doesn't allow you to be an Accenture in India, and ship people to the US (even if they'd be at Accenture in the US).

At some point the time to resume is going to make no difference if you still need to load and start a kernel and loading state into RAM is just as fast as loading the OS (which is generally what you get with an immutable OS -- you don'

I've even seen the weird combination of the client and server both authenticating, but the account owner being given a choice if they want to 'level up'. It essentially means your public reputation and match history (and actu

Those players would be initially quarantined either way and a sliding experience window would put a limit on what is plausible. Same goes for transferrable skills. Experienced players who cheat will still be subject to plausibility. Say the

Sure, it would only work on games where the client and server both authenticate, otherwise none of this will work as there would be no reputation to be relied on.

Even the base example would make that specific scenario trivial: an account that is new has no business "being better" than everyone else. The only group you'd punish with that is skilled players that lose their account (and

Some of the sophistication is not really in the technical breaking of the game or protocol anymore, figuring out if something is plausible might yield detections that you cannot "cheat" because it no longer matters if your cursor

Everything is relative ;-) Hash in the context of places where you'd ride your bike is a very different kind of hash than let's say, the weather on mercury or pluto.

On the other hand, we constructed the court of law to help society, not the other way around. Same goes for statutes.

Because a thermometer is software and software is imperfect. Perhaps it made some assumptions that causes phones that were released after the app was released to drain the battery very quickly. Or it has a calculation error where over time

A calculator app doesn't need that many megabytes of code and assets to be a calculator app. So if an app is way bigger than it should be, it usually means one of two things (usually!): 1. The app was not very optimised, perhaps create

> The fixtures are primarily for efficiency gains I agree, however, the battery example was a prime candidate for "it is not always as simple as it seems". LiPo batteries don't like getting squished.

No, but you could use DNS for that internal IP. And then you'd have a hostname. Since your IMAP server likely has some way of getting external mail, it is likely that you have a DNS zone and MX records, so adding an A record for your i

Commercial business software manufacturers are isolated from the users and in a way isolated from consequences as long as they fulfil the contractual obligations (which practically never has a 'make the users happy' stipulation).
