I would say it's a close call between MS and AWS in terms of who is the new IBM. I see them both equally safe in terms of "won't get fired" at this point, although Azure maybe was risky as recent as 3 years ago, they see

"whichever one is available to you" is still the right answer since as some other comments suggest there isn't enough data, yet. For sure one is likely better than the others. If we had the data we'd make the choice, b

I get this sense they are very conservative in their feature set there? Nested VMs for example are supposed in GCP, Azure and Oracle clouds I think, but not AWS. VM migration too I think exists in GCP at least, but not AWS. It's inte

The Slack integrations for SP and Outlook are arguably better than what MS did in Teams.

Yeah we get major problems in a top 2 cloud provider where our on prem to cloud link dropped packets. We narrowed it down with iperf to the packet loss only happening on some ephemeral source ports. Ports were always ok, or always slow.

You don't have to wait for it to warm up. Microwave it. Really. Try it. For best results, use the smaller bottle trick, but the refrigerator adds same extra level of protection and warming it up takes 12 seconds. I drink a fair amount

Also, forgot to mention. Warm red wine up in the microwave after refrigeration. Really! Try it! Obviously just to get it to room temperature.

The half bottle trick is great. 375 ml is a great amount for 2 to split with dinner. Lets you open a bottle any night and not feel bad about not finishing.

The A380 is harder to load cargo into so they never even built a cargo version. The 747 freighter is still being produced and delivered today! Look up and see a contrail lately and it might be a 747 freighter, they are all flying! https:&#

I suggest finding something you like, and do it. I like gardening and cleaning so I do those, but don't like changing oil so I outsource that. I would change my oil it I could stand up doing it!

Teams is completely failing to replace Slack in my experience. I think it's must closer to replacing Zoom. I use all 3 daily. Teams is strong in file storage, direct messages and video calling. Slack is strong in channel messaging. I

Maybe real information needs a better PR strategy? What would that look like? I think it needs to be bottom up, at least it can't be centralized.

GitHub and Azure for sure are the best services from MS. But while the former is easy to use, and I would say the lowest friction for getting developers building and deploying, I think AWS is easier for developers than Azure. Look at https

Isn't this just a $ decision? Do you build a power point that runs only for 4 hours every 10 years? Batteries may pencil out?

That's the real question. Even 1 in 10 year load, do you build for it or just live with it? It's just a $ decision.

It's impressive it took them this long in the face of Datadog and who ever else pioneered the open source agent approach. It was such a clear advantage to ensure you knew what was going on your servers, or into your app in the APM ca

Yes, SaaS and even IaaS and PaaS are the ultimate outsourcing. Outsourcing that actually works since it's not simply swapping a US based high paid human for a low paid off shore human. Instead it's swapping a human for automat

This has got to be interesting for folks like AWS, Google, MS. Is this the opening for AMD? Or will we see things like AWS ARM chips take off? They should both be close to entering production on 5nm chips once TSMC gets enough Apple chip

Last fall I had the chance to fly SFO to LHR on an A380 and return trip on a 747. Such a smooth journey. Post COVID, I strongly suggest finding one of these for a future flight, if there are any left flying post COVID that is...
