I agree, they hinted at a "modular Mac pro coming in 2019" and what's more modular than a little macmini with an external GPU, external storage, and lots of USB-c ports.

I have a solution for Apple: that surely no one has thought of: spin off the Mac into it's own company. They can keep their shareholders happy with wonderful sales of the iPhone, and the pro users who rely on these computers will have

Every time I think about switching from MacOS to Windows I'm glad that I find a post like this that reminds me of how bad Windows is in comparison. I'll happily deal with a slow hardware refresh cycle from Apple if it means things

Or they could do what Google have done, and separate more OS components into applications delivered out of band via the app store, like the browser (Chrome), the keyboard (Gboard), etc. Behavior changes of the os should not be quiet and mag

This isn't caused by lack of open source software, this is caused by lack of management, partitioning, and containment. I assume the issue was caused by a 100% flat network, with office worker's laptops being on the same subnet as

I think some cars in NYC have a breaking system is attached to their horn. They're unable to stop or slow down without the horn also going off.

Interesting idea, but since imgur recompresses photos, so I'm not sure this would work.

Atlassian software can be so disappointing. We are running Confluence on GKE, and it was such a chore to properly containerize it. We also use RedMine (running on GKE) and that was a breeze to setup and deploy.

One bit that's missing from the article is a warning about taking it too often, or at too high of dose. It does recommend taking only .3mg, but it doesn't warn you how "hungover" you will feel if you take too much. I tri

Microsoft's evident misunderstooding of open source software is not an example that should be followed by others.

I did some performance testing comparing pfsense and opnsense on idential hardware, and out-of-the-box configuration. On my Atom 1.6ghz dual Intel nic router I was able to get near line-speed gigabit NAT from pfsense, while opnsense maxed

Has anyone tried this yet? The reviews on Amazon say it's ok, but bad for gaming.

It's an expensive location for an office. It doesn't much matter for the story, and regardless the fact may be lost on people who don't know NYC.

Have you compared performance of the DB running in Linux on a property sized Intel/Xeon server? I've seen several mainframe companies dogmatically believing their sales rep their workload is special and needs a high-end system. Bu

This is going to enable some very simple multi-region failover for k8s, and I'm excited to try it out!

I believe you, but I'm curious if you're using Windows 10? Also, what specifically is bad. (I'm a Linux desktop user since '99, MacOS since 08)

Running untrustworthy code can be risky? Nothing new here. This is not Docker's fault. Anyone can download and run untrusted code, even without Docker.

Ive brought my 2017 mbp to the Apple store in soho (NYC) twice to get stuck keys fixed. Both times it took about 10mns. (and they said they fix the new keys very frequently...)

Too complex compared to what? All other commonly used web infrastructure is complex in various ways. In my experience building and running Kubernetes clusters for Fortune 500 companies is that actually it's much simpler, it's just

Try using Ethernet instead of wireless, and make sure you have a decent router.

Amazing how Dell is phasing in the new port, rather than just replacing all of the old ports with the new (immature) standard.
