High performers are often aware of the large space of potential subjects they lack expertise on (hence feeling behind). Low performers are often not aware, and would self-evaluate as high performers due to not being aware of their own knowl

I share these frustrations and don't have a great answer. When integrating N cloud services, at some point it gets incredibly hard to build out fast feedback / local environments. The best way I know how to deal with it is use l

I really enjoy reading anecdotes like the above. Programming languages are how we express intent to systems, and a complex enough domain where quantifying the tradeoffs is sufficiently difficult. Teams can succeed or fail using any languag

This is potentially the savviest of business models. For companies which can't employ full time staff to work on open source they use, they still need the ecosystem to provide updates, features, fixes, and tools for integration. Ther

Caveat: I have a family, so the below is typical but mixed with many spontaneous, unexpected events like burning toaster strudels: - Wake up ~7:30 - Feed dogs, water plants, make coffee - Run ~2.5 miles from 7:50 - 8:20 - Meditate

I have professionally come across many website backends that were developed in Javascript. Over time we are seeing projects that add more robustness, performance, and ability to support in the form of Typescript and now Deno. With WASM bec

I am familiar with C#, and in good faith spent a bit of time trying to find examples to support this, but in the end using a class is both common and typical (omitting the many StackOverflow results with the same pattern): https:/&#x2

For those that didn't click through, I believe the parent is demonstrating that it is a best practice to have many clusters for a variety of reasons such as: "Create one cluster per project to reduce the risk of project-level conf

There is also bias with respect to survey fatigue. Many of us still use Clojure, but the survey has been running for 10 years, so we are just cranking away, building systems and letting others fill out the survey.

This is highly inaccurate depending on where the upper bound of age is (ie excluding retirees or part timers). For instance, the average person above 40 years of age have much more time to focus on work: Children already grown, not frequen

I have been experimenting with Crux ( https://opencrux.com ) and it feels very easy to work with. In past systems once they grew, I always needed to implement audit logs / tables / fields, and this solves that and other

I have the same experience: My T470 always goes at least 10 hours, and the battery estimate shows 16+ from a full charge. My work Macbook might get 5 on a good day?

Not sure if its representative, but I am extremely picky about framerates and jitter. On Ubuntu 19.10 Beta with Firefox 69.0.3 it feels noticeably faster than my Macbook.

I was taking a look at companies and saw a fair amount of this. The influenced positive reviews do appear to have a pattern to them and are fairly easy to spot, but it skews the numbers if you were not digging that deep.

Here in Denver we get full 1Gbps for $75/mo, every provider has outages and this was the first partial outage we experienced with the service (pages loaded just slowly most of the day)

I made a information map of MSA (Metropolitan statistical areas) and then linked it to common names for those areas and sites such as reddit.com/r/cincinnati and then scraped the online users over time. There was a bit more to it

Good question - the flip side is, if I cover those bases, then I have time to do the things I like because I am not worrying about them. With Denver I ended up with skiing, hiking, Christmas tree / pumpkin farms, city amenities etc

I live in Denver now but did a bit of analysis off of census and economic data: 1. Move somewhere where college graduates choose to move (this is a proxy for restaurants, arts, high paying jobs) 2. Move somewhere where desired incoming leve

Back in ~1998 or so, Dwango[1] provided a similar service, and for the time / capabilities it worked very well. There is still a latency penalty for distance, and I don't see cloud computing solving that, so having these locally

There is another side of this, which is workforce training and capabilities. As much as AWS / Azure / GCP are alike, their services and behaviors are very different at a detailed level of overview, requiring separate tooling and

No discord here. In this case I fully disconnected my USB-C devices, replugged and they were still unresponsive. I then rebooted and everything worked again.

As I read this comment, my mouse and keyboard stopped working (MacBook Pro 15" 2018) because they can only connect to my laptop via USB-C (required a reboot) Saying there are no driver issues cannot be true, just by googling for cases

Not shilling for AWS, but I file at least 1 ticket a month. I haven't tried the phone option, but the web option works for resolving my complaints within 24 hours. My use case might be different since the entire architecture is HA &#x

I have also been using oauth2_proxy to allow users to authenticate via SSO and then access a application. It was easy to deploy and has been painless to manage.
