I am a bit reluctant to try it out because this will give access to my company source code, and that is a no go for a no-name, no-certification tool without even a privacy page. Have you considered that trust will give the highest entry bar

What I don't understand from these conversation is the main selling proposition for Astro: if you have a content-heavy website, you should ship zero Javascript. And I agree with that, most of the websites heavy in content will at most

This - and probably asking if they know other people that might benefit of your new experience/skills. If they probably helped you, they are still helping someone else too.

I believe that this is and similar example are missing a very important point in the narrative: in case of developing land to build a building, you will still have the possibility to deduct 100% of the salaries of the construction workers.

Prime ministers in Italy are also called Presidente del Consiglio dei Ministri, therefore technically yes. He was holding the executive power, and although Italy is a parliamentary republic, most of the laws are driven by the Government.

bigger stage and bigger impact. Trump had more impact on the world trades in a few months than Berlusconi in 20 years as Berlusconi was limited to Italy and sometimes Europe.

Trumpism is just another league I believe. You may say it's Berlusconism on steroids, but the global impact makes this a thing by itself.

At least Berlusconi didn't have access to nuclear warheads. Seriously, I visited the US few times between 2005 and 2010 and each time people were raising the topic of Berlusconi. How can you have a president like that, who voted for hi

I personally believe that money spent on delivery food is a waste of money, unless it's an emergency or it's sushi: any type of food (excluding sushi) will arrive soggy (especially pizza or burgers) and/or cold and it will de

I think Google scares a lot of people away with their approach of not being able to talk to any human whatsoever unless you spend a lot of money on a monthly basis. I read a lot of horror stories of people getting in troubles with GCP and n

letters can be misplaced in the wrong mailbox, delivered to the wrong address etc etc. They put a lot of trust into the system.

The US should look into other countries efforts to replicate Silicon Valley, you just can't. You will get some niche good, you will waste some money there, but you won't get the same level. ' This, without even considering fo

if this is the new version of "PHP is dead", each of them will thrive for much longer.

in a world where many projects are started with Python and Ruby, PHP has definitely a bright spot.

luckily I haven't been working with such companies, I have had enough of my dose of Digitalisierung by interacting with public offices. But at least I can communicate with the Finanzamt via email, after signing a document where I made

LOL - I can second that. There are a lot of memes about nothing screams more "Digitalisierung!" than having to send papers via fax. Or having to carry cash coz a lot of places don't even give you the option to pay by card (ev

This immediately reminded me the episode from Friends about Mockolate - is just me?

That's true, and so far is being used for (check notes) cloning the peculiar style of an anime studio. Or fake receipts.

Otherwise it depends on the deal structure. Especially if it's an acqui-hire, or founders are involved, it can be a combination of shares, options, earn-out, guaranteed bonus, certain salary levels (much higher then their current one)

I wonder if there will be some kind of setup like AWS did in China - with a local partner managing the DC.

I second that. Plus, there was no business critical workloads migration in place.

what made you choose for OVH instead of Scaleway.com ? I recently discovered that Scaleway is also European, and that their offering is on par with many managed services AWS provides which could be a good drop-in replacement for them.

i actually didn't realise Scaleway is a real European alternative to AWS/GCP/Azure. They seems to be covering the most common use case for AWS managed services.

it feels more like a business district rather than a city people are willing to live. Soulless, with little green around. Concrete everywhere.
