Had a similar experience when working in a research lab. I think the issue is that I have a hard time learning things without doing myself. And generally trying to reproduce stuff from a paper is really hard.

Can't sepak about others, but AWS is a tech consultants' dream. It hold business critical stuff, is very complicated to use and easy to fuck up. It seems the author is a DO employee and they are trying to brand themselves as a dev

I've been doing IaC in AWS since terraform 0.11 (now added Azure and AWS CDK to the mix). Most cloud providers (and don't get me started with software platforms) support IaC as a complete afterthought. The day you decide to use Ia

Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but our team has like a few dozens of PostgreSQL RDS running on AWS for the past four years and the ops is... Basically zero?

Although Bloomberg does offer APIs, you often need very expensive licensing to feed their data into services automatically. Also their SDKs are complete rubbish.

Let's say I want to trade a large amount of $TICKER. Sometimes, just sending a buy order is not ideal as it might drive prices up. So you start calling brookers and hope they help you by finding other folks who want to sell large amoun

I'm thinking about leaving Google land because I think their incentives are heavily misaligned with mine as a consumer. Although Microsoft and Apple win points for not having ads their a primary profit mechanism, they unfortunately use

It's simple. Before we had developer and operations teams. Now operations write yaml and we call them devops.

I have lived in apartments my whole life, but I'm not sure if that is necessarily the most green decision.

If I had one dollar for each time I clicked "unsubscribe" and $ONLINE_STORE decided to forget about that one month later... I kinda solved that with fast mail + masked addresses, but still super annoying.

If I'm not mistaken there was an earthquake in 17xx that almost erased Lisbon. Still, it really appears that sismic activity in the Pacific is much more frequent.

> Also even if they aren't using real money that does not mean they are limited to historical data. You can run algos on live data even without actively trading. What you don't get is how your actions affect the market itself.

"just run your own git server" comments always make me scratch my head. IMO folks managing services for personal use vastly underestimate how much harder everything can get in an actual business environment.
