I just checked my significant locations and all it has is my home. I guess that’s lucky. It usually also has my office where I spend quite a bit of time. Hopefully they recover from whatever outage is going on.

Programming, even when in service of my corporate overlords, is invigorating. Coaxing the machines do my bidding never gets old. I could do it all day and not get tired. During those rare times where much programming is needed, I often lose

Very cool. Bookmarked in case I ever need to do this. I have implemented a transactional outbox in postgres using a simpler version of this plus a trigger to notify listening workers. It worked well and vastly outpaced the inserting process

That is impressive considering Battle for the Undercity was bugged for months in official WotLK classic.

Cool hack and enjoyable read. The smart plug idea is slick. I like the idea of decoupling the smart from the appliance. I'd much rather all my appliances be dumb. In the US, you'd have to get a 240 volt smart plug. Are there any r

Good article. > EBS has automated backups and recovery built in and high uptime guarantees, so we don’t feel that we’ve missed out on any of the reliability guarantees that Aurora offered. It may not matter for their use case, but I don&

Insurance is a borderline scam. You have to have it by law or in case the worst happens. When the worst does happen get ready for a fight as they will do everything they can legally do to wriggle out.

Well written and pretty interesting. Somewhat obvious I suppose. I was hoping he would go into detail on how programs like Citi double cash work. In that program you get the normal 1% back at purchase and then 1% at payment. I assume the la

That is an interesting idea. It would need a mechanism for attaching itself to the economic and/or political systems over millennia. Otherwise it would not be self sustaining. A possible alternative is to somehow attach this mission to

I drink coffee all day most days starting from 6 or 7 AM until 6 or 7 PM depending on the day. I am able to fall asleep within a few minutes every night without issue and typically have deep vivid dreams. Waking up is a bit tough though. I

I have noticed a trend with Ars posting original articles with a lot of similarities to content from smaller sources that came out a few days earlier. Its pretty common to see a rather esoteric topic make it to the front page of HN and then

The way I have done this in the past is to use an adapter library that maps from the incoming lambda event to whatever framework you are using (like fastify or jax-rs for example). Your code looks like the normal http request handler stuff

My general pattern these days is a compose file with postgres and another container to run my migrations (along with anything else I need). Then I have an integration test suite that hits all the code paths that touch the database. The whol

I’ve been very impressed with the flagsmith team. Met with them a few months ago when evaluating feature flag vendors. Their features and pricing were great, but the team put them right at the top of our list. Really transparent and technic

We use Terragrunt to manage thousands of Terraform configurations. If it and Terraform drift apart, we will have to go one way or the other eventually. Separately, a new license for Terraform means its gotta go back through legal and compli

As a long time Gruntwork customer, contributor, and fan, it is really nice to see them stepping up as thought leaders here. They run a great open source community already. Our DevOps team has been buzzing all day with what we are going to d

I am actually really sad about how bad HashiCorp has dropped the ball. I'm a huge fan of theirs and Mitchell's in particular (not that this reflects on him really). Their plans for monetization are just so uninspired. They absolut

We are still in the dark ages of no root, all kinds of agents and spyware, multiple layers of TLS intercepting proxies, etc. I still surf HN and listen to questionable and obscure genres of metal while I code. If they ever complain I'l

I’ve been using Terragrunt [0] for the past three years to manage loosely coupled stacks of Terraform configurations. It allows you to compose separate configurations almost as easily as you compose modules within a configuration. Its got i

I’ve noticed it has become trendy to yell “capitalism is bad” because monopolies have been allowed to form and fester. It is interesting that the trend is not to point at the regulators who have utterly failed to do their jobs. And it is co

This was great. I felt this way earlier on, but quickly learned to get fulfillment in my day job purely from shipping and contemplate the mysteries of computer science largely on my own time. Sometimes they overlap, but good day jobs are of

There is something to be said for stability. Since our protagonist retired early, the pay must not have been bad. The glass is half full, or so I tell myself.

I’ll preface this by saying I don’t think there is anything wrong with using cannabinoids in general. I don’t personally, but find the industry fascinating. The farm bill opened the doors to a lot of other stuff besides legal D9 gummies and
