But now, with so many conf calls, you get to hear the loud keyboards which are positioned just in front of the mic :-o

Three steps: 1. Don't do microservices 2. Don't do microservices yet 3. Do some larger, more sensible, level of service integration

>> I wouldn’t tell such things to anyone I’m “friendly” with at work. Don’t get me wrong: I like these people, but would I want another team’s manager to know that I’m deeply in debt or fighting bitterly with my spouse? I’d think not.

The distortion in that photo looks like it's just a wide-angle lens, see the cork at the top.

Yep, this is how strict change control needs to work - if it can be streamlined, all well and good, but not by removing the checks and balances that can help prevent operational issues (not just fraud issues)

I take it that 1000 out of 4600 employees shows that, not unsurprisingly, a lot of the staff at this technology company may be involved in hands-on activities against live services. Maybe DevOps style.

For SMPP, there is the option to add further data using 'TLV' (Tag/Length/Value) parameters, not only UDH properties.

That is part of a service that we use, provided for some banks, but requires a lot of integration with the mobile networks and a lot of additional business logic around new sims, old sims used on new accounts, old sims used on old accounts

I would say that depends on what the developer uses - Windows developers may well disagree with you!

I agree with some of the other older hands in here, much of technology 'changes' are rarely anything new, just new names and tweaked implementations of much the same core elements. New generations like new names, worded in terms t

'Disturbed' SQL confused me, had to look up the thread to see Distributed SQL. And yes, I agree, you certainly can run distributed without data loss, depending on the platform design and your 'transaction level'.

Do seem to have a lot of downvotes, yes! GDPR is about a lot more than the tracking stuff though, it is about the personal data companies hold and are responsible for, your permission to request it, the risk of fines if they don't comp

>> but the media loves to shit almost exclusively on tech I don't think so. Hollywood has certainly had a lot of issues in the press... Perhaps it's that you read more tech-focused media? Or the founders/CEOs of big tec

I feel that in a lot of cases, this is basically just bullying. Where people in power, or at least senior positions, will belittle others to their own benefit. It may not be racist or sexist in its cause, but can be in its nature. Basically

I am in the South and use cash quite frequently, as do many other people I see or know. I think your definition of 'almost nobody' may be more than you appreciate. >> Almost nobody pays for anything with cash in the UK anymo

You may want see what the actual complaints point to. Not this. The same issues affect US software providers too, btw

Yes, would think surely this ought to be managed by a tax that keeps some of the money in-country, whether or not it gets shared with the press (which brings a lot of issues about subsidies, free speech and more). Wondering, do FB/Goog

Hmm, let me see. Why might the police need guns to hand out speeding tickets? Perhaps it's because at least some of the people they stop, for speeding or other possible offences, won't take kindly to being stopped and in many part

Thought much the same - I can see the stones and people around them when driving past on the A303. Easy, given how slow traffic is around there, which is why a tunnel is (still) being talked about, maybe even being planned.

Think we've a lot in common. Maybe to do with being older and more experienced; been there, done that, got the t-shirt. I started with Assembler on Intel hardware and problems with coding that in scale aren't so different to today

A problem I've seen a lot of too. In this case, the definition of 'done' is totally leaving out all that technical debt. Hence 'something' has been shipped, but the work has most definitely not been 'done'

I've been to the last couple of London DevOpsDays and find the presentations often interesting, but the ad hoc sessions in the afternoon can be some of the best parts.

Some useful points made in other comments, tied-in to your particular problem/exploit. I would recommend you get familiar with OWASP, and especially the 'top ten' security issues that they publish. See https://owas

>>> Why aren’t those the customers you want? Agree with this - they may be the long tail. So long as overheads/support costs are low, having a cheap entry point has to be a good idea, if there's volume to be had. Especial

Sounds promising. Have found Grafana really good, flexible and usable with many available data sources and display options. Hope it continues to move forward and make it easier to get it adopted within my organisation.

Was plainly obvious why Boris went for the long shutdown, whatever he chose to say, because of the also-suspect behaviour of the multi-party opposition him wanting to see one law (Brexit Clause 10) implemented without conflicting laws being
