I have fond memories of a group chat with my internet friends, complete with custom emoticons and file sharing. It might have been called "Windows Live Messenger" at that point. When the product was killed, I lost contact with a l

CEQA is just one symptom of the problem. Entrenched interests will use anything at their disposal to prevent development: zoning regulations, building codes, concerns about racial/socioeconomic equity, legal stalling tactics, etc.

I'm in a similar position. I use Spotify for music, but for movies/TV, I pirate everything despite paying for multiple streaming services. It's about being able to consume media on my own terms. Thanks to piracy, I can get th

This is kind of unrelated but "Amazon OpenSearch Service (successor to Amazon Elasticsearch Service)" is such a verbose product name. If you mark it as one of your favorite services in the AWS Console, it will take up a large chun

FYI you may want to rehost that second image. Reddit is currently scrubbing that image off their website, and they will delete it if they become aware of it.

If I knew Android 12 would be this ugly and annoying I wouldn't have installed the update. What bothers me the most is that I can't opt out of the Material You UI, and it's barely customizable.

If you're using AWS you should just create separate accounts for each environment. This doesn't solve the issue of a compromised release orchestrator deploying malicious code to production. But it is helpful for other reasons: it

It's too easy to end up with the types of people who are no longer welcome on reddit. See Voat, Ruqqus, the entire win network, etc. Nobody wants to post pictures of their dog next to memes complaining about the Jews. You could make an

I switched from a JetBrains IDE to VS Code for one reason: I don't want to build a C++ codebase on my laptop. It requires a lot of processing power, takes a long time, kills the battery, and makes the fan go off. I'm willing to us

The funniest part about this is that reddit censors all posts/comments linking to rdrama.net, aiding the trolls. Even if someone wanted to expose the trolling, they couldn't.

UPS, Fedex, Amazon, and the USPS all perform last mile delivery for envelopes and packages (albeit, some of these envelopes are padded). Will these delivery services ever converge on a single design for their vehicles?

AWS is huge, so YMMV across teams. Some teams have operational and funding issues, so your experience there may be hellish. You could think of it another way and realize that you have your work cut out for you. I previously worked on an AWS
