Me too! Although I am playing with Sublime merge lately - it is pretty handy for creating branches off of specific commits, looking at diffs across branches etc.

It has less to do with your camera injecting viruses. There are other attack surfaces. For instance someone could send you a malicious Jpeg and if your Adobe application has a vulnerability and you decide to open that file, it could be expl

I think about this a lot and many times I feel it is impractical to expect your company to visibly demonstrate moral ground that you can be proud of as an employee. I work at Netflix and I am happy here. Curious if any of you would consider

Amazon is also slowly moving to this "private tech document" as a side effect of using Quip instead of putting them in the company wiki searchable for all. I hate this.

GCP did close their IOT service recently leaving very less time for customers to migrate to some other solution.

I discovered a gem yesterday in HBO. The Outsider. Ben Mendelson and a small role from Jason Bateman. Feels like a true detective season well done like the first. How is this show not front and center in the homepage?

For me, I have come to terms with that fact that an fully moral employer is unrealistic in this competitive world. So I stopped feeling proud or disappointed by what my employer does in the world (as long as it does not actively goes out of

I really admire Stuart Marks and his work, talks and writing. His work in Java APIs are much more approachable for laypersons like me who will be quick to pounce on various suggestions, problems and feature requests. But I find his response

I am proud of my team at AWS that took backwards compatibility very seriously. Even introducing a temporary backwards incompatibility was a no-go in design reviews. We had a service that had a list API that was paginated. It returned a next

No, they launched the service, took their promotions and then left to launch newer products for more promotions. No one was left to improve the existing product.

There are global quotas per account that can sneak up on you if you have too many services running in the same account albeit in different regions. DynamoDB total read and write capacity comes to mind.

In fact per app per region that the AWS service exists in. My AWS service exists in 24 regions so that is 24 “prod” accounts, 8 “gamma” and 6 “beta” and 1 “alpha” account. Some newer teams go even further. If the app is made out of differe

Where is the decade coming from? From what I know the loom project was started a few years ago, perhaps in 2019.

I have a question to people who were around and have a memory of the times because I don’t as I was not born yet. But does the crypto thing feel similar to how the internet started in the late 80’s and early 90’s before finally taking off?

Never managed to get over my first love - Consolas. Every time I try a new one I come back to Consolas in a few days.

Not that it matters to customers because that is not how they see it but 2 day delivery never meant 2 days from time of placing the order. It meant 2 days from the time item is shipped. This used to cause frustration and confusion even amon

How is the iPhone X working for you? Mine is struggling now. Gets very hot after a video call. Cell network completely drops randomly and will only recover if I take out the SIM and put it back. I was hoping for a couple of more years.

How did you manage 7 years. I struggle at the 5 year mark. I have an iPhone X bought dec 2017 that is now ready for replacement. Sometimes it completely drops the cell connection and I have to take out the SIM. Also video calls make it go v

For me I have not missed it one bit. My co-workers are not my friends and even though I am friendly with them and joke around when we are in conversation at the workplace/Slack, when the work day ends, we don't seek to add more so

I am curious what kind of information do you have in your notes that you keep them around for years. Not trying to mock or anything but I am wondering if I too would benefit from such a thing. Most of my notes are ephemeral and I delete the

Is this really true? That most teams depend on a separate team for th CI/CD stuff? I have only worked at AWS and all teams here completely own their deployments and operations. I thought this was how everyone does it.

If the feature is simple enough, it is possible to illustrate it in a few sentences. I am just speculating at this point, but if the discussion went like "hey, I think in Markdown, if the users enters a code-block, we should treat ever

A product manager that comes up with feature ideas is doing actual work, would you not agree? Even if they themselves do not implement anything.

It is still a contribution, which is what the title is. It did not say "my feature implementation in Markdown". A good feature suggestion which is thoughtful and genuinely improves a product not just for that one user but for ever

Many (in fact I would bet most) other AWS services themselves use DynamoDB under the hood for various control-plane and data-plane uses-cases. It is not unimaginable that the actual traffic to DynamoDB service in total at regular daily peak
