Wasn't looking for the definition, having studied thermodynamics as an undergrad, just surprised that a nonfunctional cooling system might be cast in such terms. Like, you don't start by noticing the engine's increased therm

Out of curiosity, do you recall any more context around referring to an engine (combustion engine?) in terms of adiabatic process? I'm just a bit puzzled how this might come up in relation to a car.

You're describing fragmentation, not multi-cloud resiliency or diversification. Think "something catastrophic has happened to AWS but the business can still ship orders because the required services are also running in Azure.&quo

The gist is that you will not be able to move the needle with any effectiveness. Reduce the federal budget by 30% by force of will, or what? This is "first, convert 1kg lead to 1kg gold" level thinking.

Misleading title, Zoom doesn't divulge the password hash, but also doesn't prevent users from clicking on UNCs. Having fallen out of paying attention to Windows Server over the past few years, I'd be a little surprised if the

It took a moment to get the zeitgeist connection--one of Cornholio's few intelligible phrases is "I need TP for my bunghole." Wikipedia used to host a comically erudite page about Cornholio, e.g. studiously noting such discre

People have short memories. If hoping for change is optimism, then you're too optimistic.

I reject your "this offends my sense of ethics and thus it cannot be most pragmatic or humane" line of reasoning. Will you at least acknowledge there exists a relationship between a trashed economy and an increase in human suffer

Eh. The ALB/ELB/NLB section is off the mark for failing to consider inter-AZ costs, perplexingly indicates NLB has something to do with TLS, even more perplexingly suggests NLB as the default choice. Dynamo isn't something

Yep. Food cost is usually about 1/3 of the bill; 1/3 to rent and overhead, 1/3 to staff. If a few percent can be squeezed from any of those areas, there's the restaurant's profit.

Oh buddy, I hate "high rate of speed" so much. Speed is already a rate of travel. This is just adding words and blather in an attempt to sound official, and not too far from "utilize" in place of "use," or &q

I'm not sure it was a snipe, because there's so often an emergency of some sort or other, causing us to lose focus on the big picture. The "one more thing" to do that will make everything all right.

There are already plenty of good 2.0 liter engines that represent little compromise. If the tax regime hasn't adjusted to punish Audi S3 buyers, well, there would be even less to be gained by making special accommodations to tax a sma

Perhaps not exactly what you mean, but Scala eschews [] for array access, and arr(0) returns the same as arr.apply(0).

This is more like a lazy or deeply ignorant use of running a process as root and reflects on the recklessness of the system designer, and not on whatever that process happens to be.

You do in fact get a lot of this stuff with ECS and Fargate - rolling updates, automatic restart, log aggregation, auto scaling, some discovery bits, healthchecks, Secrets Manager or Parameter Store if you want, etc.
