I do. Only for leisure. And I take a Pixel 6A running LineageOS when I do which has nothing sensitive on it. That's really mostly so that I don't lose my iPhone which I actually care about.

This is just the same problem in JSON, another loose schema’ed mess. Got my fair share of problems with that at the moment as well.

I think we need to burn this whole thing down and rethink it at this point. A huge amount of the total operational cost of our business is working around weird YAML problems and helm charts. Had one a while back where quoted strings conta

I've disabled unlock with Apple Watch and bought a touch ID magic keyboard. This is a far better solution! It was neat for a couple of days until I was walking out of the room and my mac unlocked itself.

Mine doesn't do that at all (M1 14" MBP). Are you on an M1 macbook or an Intel one out of interest?

I still like XML and XSD. People look at me these days like I'm insane. But in this case a partially loaded XML document would not parse let alone pass schema validation. Again vindicated. YAML needs to go away. It is misery. I'd

I would not assume that Hashicorp products necessarily meet the design goals if I'm honest. Consul and vagrant have been absolute shits and vault adds more complexity and unreliability to the problem domain and has a net negative ROI.

I am personally using it to leverage vast amounts of cash off people and using that to do stuff I actually give a crap about. The difference between me and you is that I have come to terms with this being purely an earner, which there is no

You can make sensible assumptions that result in engineering gains though. Step around the problems not through them. For example I have learned that the first step to reliability is removing as many hashicorp products from your stack as po

I had a weird dream last night that my M1 MacBook Pro had a 5 1/4” floppy drive still. No idea why or what brought that on but to wake up and read this was refreshing :)

These are the adverts I want: discovery in scope of what I am doing i.e music, entertainment and apps. Literally Apple deliver those cleanly. What I don't want is scams, noise, garbage and malware which is what the alternative ecosyste

Glad I didn't buy one. If I had bought one and it did that to me I'd actually sabotage our AWS spend on purpose just to punish Bezos.

I don't get ads on iOS, macOS or iPadOS. Literally none. The only revenue stream they have in that space is in-app ads (I don't have any of those apps) and the app store, which is basically an advertising portal to find tools so I

There is no way a Pi with GPIO should be anywhere near any industrial equipment. I have worked in the industry and it has been a mix of in-house and hired cabinet chimps. If you have the time and money to work out how to interface a Pi to G

I worry about this. It compromises the brand if they are willing to cheap out on automation hardware at this level. What else are they cheaping out on? Point being there's almost absolutely no reason why they should have used a raspber

I remember these days. I spent a lot of time buying GPUs and eating ramen. Unreal Tournament 99 on a Voodoo 3 3000 was the peak for me. Now I have an Intel iGPU and don’t care. And I can afford to eat better :)

I am behind the idea of this needing to be destroyed. It's not that the technology is inherently bad or useless but in the wrong hands, of which there are many, it can cause a vast array of problems in society.

I haven't had that happen in the 10 years I've had iOS devices. Last time I plugged anything in other than for charging was an iPod. Even my DSLR talks to the phone via WiFi.

The reason they went with Lightning was because the other option was Micro-USB at the time. Lightning is so so so much more robust than that awful USB connector and can be inserted any way round. Bring on 2015 and USB-C appeared which Apple
