Chavez died in March 2013, Maduro took over after that after being vice president. It's not 20+ years.

I'm amazed by all these silly priorities some people can find.

we were not affected too and we realised it was Cloudflare because Linear was down and they were mentioning an upstream service. Also Ecosia was affected, and I then realised they might be relying on Cloudflare too.

I'm extremely confused by Mixpanel announcement, according to their blog post if you received an email from them it implies you were affected, yet I closed my account with them few months ago and I still received their email, which I c

this is a very American issue. In my entire student career in Italy, home assignments were never graded. Maybe you had a project or two through university, but otherwise I got all my grades for onsite tests.

I really can't believe this. I had issues with CircleCI too earlier, soon after the incident with Cloudflare resolved.

I still find a lot of websites/applications (including my own) affected.

For some reason linear.app is working but according to their headers they should be behind Cloudflare.

I wonder why people are surprised, as this is an open secret nobody is willing to admit. And it's basically the reason we had Schrim I and Schrim II. At the same time a massive migration from US cloud in EU to EU cloud would be a massi

Not necessarily our critical path but today circleci was affected greatly which also affected our capacity to deploy. Luckily it was a Monday morning therefore we didn’t even have to deploy an hot fix.

Today’s reminder: multi-region is so hard even AWS can’t get it right.

also France and Spain (and Italy, Germany, UK etc etc) they have bigger population, far more diverse one, far more decentralized issues etc etc.

it depends on your investment horizon - if you don't expect to cash in any time soon you can just sit this one out, and historically it should get better over time (with some opportunities in the meantime).

Norway gets most of its wealth from fossil fuel. While it's not Saudi Arabia nor Venezuela, and they invested in long term sustainability, it's not fair to everyone else to say that they are at 80%EV because they are forward think

John Oliver has a very valid point https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0_Bwix9IjOE but this was already known: Netanyahu must cling to power, otherwise he will be screwed on so many levels, that's why he is sabotaging any

Today I've tested Claude Code with small refactorings here and there in a medium sized project. I was surprised by the amount of token that every command was generating, even if the output was few lines updated for a bunch of files. If

Just cases where PR were submitted close to someone holidays and I assigned it to someone else in the team to bring it over the line. But otherwise I have worked with sync pair programming only.

Given the security incident that happened to CodeRabbit I’m a bit less enthusiastic about testing out new tools that have LLMs and my codebase under the same tool. What can be a very nice experiment to try something new can easily become a

very fair point - but there are valid use cases for microservices.

Am I naive thinking this infra is overblown for a read-only content website? As much as this website could be very trafficked I have the feeling they are overcomplicating their infra, for little gains. Or at least, I wouldn't expect to

I moved to Germany 10 years ago and while regional and suburban train service has been great, the long distance service has been terrible, with high prices, almost no high speed service and no competition. I'm Italian and therefore I h
