Or just buy Pulumi... j/k (I'd hate for such an awesome tool to get AWS-ized.)

No, it's really not. It's the incredibly naive "oh I just thought about this great idea, how about we just focus on not killing each other" that is just provokingly ignorant. I mean, there's are multiple related res

I needed to submit a .pptx file with 1 or more slides that my manager would manually insert into his weekly presentation deck to the exec team. I admit I never had the guts to submit a slide which asked if anyone was reading it. It did cros

Americans are missing out here. Black currants are awesome, especially in e.g. cream-based sauces.

Awesome. I'm a software guy who for 1.5 years worked for a hardware company with a relatively strict upwards-only information reporting structure. It wasn't even for secrecy, it's just that the people running it didn't u

No status reports, instead he "stochastically samples the system" - Doesn't use status updates because he believes they are too refined by the time they get to him. They are not ground truth anymore. - In

So then use nuclear power. Oh wait, you can't because there was an tsunami in Japan. Germany: "oh well, we'll increase burning clean coal, but create some crazy roadmap that we'll be carbon free in a few decades or so&

I'm currently rewatching the Las Vegas (2003) NBC TV series (the one with James Caan, Josh Duhamel, James Lesure, Molly Sims, Nikki Cox, Vanessa Marcil etc). Feels on-brand; like every second ep is about some fantastic heist. It's

I think that term was invented four days ago by that article writer. There are four other occurrances before then and they're about PS2 games.

I tend to mostly focus on the displays. The desk(s) follow from that... I currently have two 43" 4k displays (Philips BDM4350UC) next to each other. One directly in front of me, the other angled to the side. It's not working great

Based on the source link I belive the article writer misunderstood that part. These studies tend to be about the mandatory screening (mustering) process. Back then it was mandatory for all males to go through two days of testing (physiolo

This is why (so far) it's just PR, not actual legal protection. Brad Smith, being an attorney understands this. Why would he otherwise risk Microsoft (a $2.5T company) with an uncapped liability guarantee?

Yes. Remember that not only security researchers but also developers in general are extra juicy targets because of e.g. their AWS credentials that sometimes aren't kept as secure as they need to be. Heck, even if you're doing prop

Pinky promise. Where's the legal agreement? I'm sure there's a cap on their liability.

From my experience with that scale of traffic (with Opera Mini at the time about 250M MAUs and 150k full pageloads/s): There is surprisingly little seasonal variance. You have your weekly/daily traffic rhythms based on when your u

Huh. About a decade ago Opera Mini did 150k transcoded full pageloads/s (times about 30 inlines per pageload that was the average back then, so about 4.5 million requested/loaded/processed/compressed HTTP resources&#x2
