I've found some great use cases for serverless. None of those have involved hosting a backend for a website / web application. It's been a useful solution for automating some cloud management tasks though.

I understand the claim. I know my experience is anecdotal but I think it's common enough that many people can relate. I don't really need empirical evidence for this one. I also think it's common sense that companies go out o

It's not bullshit, my parents had the same fridge from when I was born until I graduated from college.

Shopping for appliances recently, I found that ALL available brands are pretty shit as far as reliability goes. It's basically a gamble. I've learned to avoid Samsung though because the circuit boards in them cannot be had for any

Try Jiu Jitsu. It's the best thing ever.

I've aced take homes and still been turned down for various nitpicks. A lot of times I think the person reviewing the code is looking for their pet preferences to be met rather than evaluating the potential of the candidate.

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu has been an awesome venue for finding new friends. I highly recommend, plus you'll gain fitness and confidence.

Even capturing the radio is not enough. The crypto device that is used to synchronize the radios must be captured. The radios are synchronized in a secure area away from the battlefield.

IDK what radios they're using in Ukraine. US military radios have devices that sync to one another that rotate keys. Also the radios hop frequencies every couple of minutes. I think it's pretty much impossible to crack without the

You're not the only one. I'm sure Typescript is nice / better, but I don't feel like having yet another bullshit language foisted on me. Also I dislike Microsoft.

Javascript is not going away anytime soon, probably. Personally, I'm waiting for React to die.

Vanilla Javascript is comfortable. I think I've pretty much given up on the JS ecosystem. I've been going back to web frameworks like Django / Rails / Laravel. Obviously not the solution for all things but most projects

True enough. I'd like to be that good at guitar but it seems like he's somewhat of a savant. I can't say I envy his social life.

I really like the "slowness" of the old way of taking pictures. The results are better. Really I stopped because film is so anachronistic and expensive / inconvenient to deal with. I have a DSLR that's decent but it&#x27

Buckethead is my favorite instrumentalist. He's not a Jazz musician though.

I have several working cameras from the 40's and 50's and two fantastic Pentax cameras from the 60's and 70's respectively. The newer Pentax is a K1000 that I've had completely refurbished and it works like it just

Monsanto is big money, that's why. Just like everything else in our blown out civilization.

My perception is that they don't want to "blend in" to the point that there's no distinction, but they want acceptance under the umbrella of Christianity. Most other groups under Christianity reject LDS doctrine as heres

When I was growing up in the 90s, I had a few LDS friends. My school had a ton of LDS kids for some reason even though I didn't grow up in an area that's known for them. These kids always described themselves as "mormon"

I wish that were so but it fairly obviously isn't. Just jump on a thread about politics or vaccination or any other cultural issue.

I've written a lot of cloud automation over the past couple of years. I'm utilizing different APIs which of course involve networks but the code itself mainly deals with the management of resources, like deleting / archiving

Just what we need, another platform.

I wish you were wrong. I've met actual Flat Earth believers, which I find astonishing and disconcerting. Unfortunately, I feel like the over-reaction against expert opinion is part of the cost of prior abuse of expert opinion. Trust in

It's one of the attitudes being pushed in the education system itself. After a couple of generations, "expertism" has embedded deeply into the American mindset. It's very dangerous to live in a culture where we don'

Do yoga and / or BJJ. Jiu Jitsu is fun and limbered me up so that my back doesn't hurt anymore; I reverse-aged by 10 years.

IDK about that. I work for a massive company with employees around the world. We need people in all time zones. We need people who can do work in specific regions and markets. We need people who can communicate in English and other language
