Having done the dating thing for a while and being male, I've had no problem with making contacts and going on dates. Quality not quantity. Can easily end up on two dates a week. I'm nothing special.

This. If an individual's mistake can take out your business you have a process control problem and that is owned by management.

Running windows in a container. Running Linux containers on windows is considerably less painful.

Ugh I'm doing this at the moment. I do not want ANYTHING to do with scanners. They are worse than printers for being complete ball aches. Using a light box and a Nikon Z50 and 50-250 lens arranged roughly like this: https://

That doesn't make sense because I'm a VS Enterprise subscriber but we don't deploy onto windows containers. I do some noddy VSTO stuff and write .Net Core stuff that goes into Linux Kubernetes on AWS.

Yes the lack of them being able to see any problems was a constant problem. Our AWS reps are all over stuff when it goes down. I regularly get to talk to actual real product managers and engineers via our enterprise support if anything goes

Citation needed. Particularly from their operations teams and developers. Notably a lot of corporations are built on a pile of shit with an immense staff turnover. I know that having worked for multiple Fortune 500 companies...

I use a mix of Keychain and MacPass (keepass compatible). I will add something to MacPass, then sign in with it and let Keychain remember it. Notes however: 1. I do not use the MFA capability of Keychain at all. Putting your MFA, username a

They never attach it to the monitoring because monitoring systems usually generate a lot of false positives which affect their published SLA.

That's not a problem with the specific cloud but the clear and obvious fact that windows containers are a fucking shit show disaster. I have a lot of experience with windows containers and there is absolutely no way anyone in their r

Persistent problems between Azure VMs and virtual disks causing unexpected reboots. Complete outages. And don't even start me on ACI (for Windows). It doesn't even work. In 7 years we had one AWS AZ outage and we didn't even

The biggest issue I have with data lakes is they always without fail turn into a data cesspool. The more you add the less ROI you get out. And yes using Splunk as an example it becomes an organisational cost problem. I have spent way too

You can but that multiplies complexity somewhat. I have spent 25 years dealing with outbound email from various things from country level ISPs down to small web apps and the only way to not die inside a little is to send via one of the larg

Honestly I've tried all of the VPS services and they're problematic. They are barrel scraping companies generally and some services literally block their entire networks. And occasionally their data centres catch fire. And of cour

Actually it's a little more nuanced than that. If you buy an activation locked MacBook from a registered business in the UK and have an authentic receipt for it, Apple will unlock it. I know someone who has been through that process. I

They tend to call themselves recyclers in the trade not resellers. They buy crates of these and play the probability game. They make more money on making frankenlaptops than actually stripping and recycling them. In fact most of them don&#x

That's likely and it's nothing compared to what I've seen. I've seen businesses shred crates of completely unused and unprovisioned top of the line 16" macbook pros.

It remember building a 4 node Beowulf cluster out of discarded compaq desktops and then having no idea what to do with it.
