As someone from the security domain you should know there is not one single tool/service that will solve all your security challenges. I did not claim VPN will. Your example of employee laptop getting infected with malware should be re

Wouldn’t it make more sense for these payouts to be consolidated and donated to a non-profit (humanitarian) org? Considering the overhead of processing all these “micro” payments. Assuming most people got few dollars payout. Or at least giv

Nice finding. It would help also to suggest a workaround. Perhaps “overloading“ the function? Not a Golang expert here. But providing a solution (other than waiting for upstream) would be beneficial for others.

We have been using prometheus at a client for little over a year now. Since we need to keep metrics for years, prometheus cannot seem to be able to deal with it well. One behavior we observed is it crashes consistently in k8s. We couldn’t p

At my current startup we are doing something similar. Perhaps as inspiration for others without the huge budgets. From very high level it works as follow: - developer logs in to AWS cli - executes: dev/01-start-env.sh - prepare infra s

I have a hard time believing in this product also. I like tech but this type of product like smart glasses and VR headsets are not my thing. I do however like to have a monitor that projects in the air. Or on some translucent surface. Kinda

I’d like to add: accept imperfect solutions but try to think few steps ahead. It’s an art to produce something that lasts long but doesn’t take years to build. Tech evolves rapidly.

I observed the same thing. I wonder however, who should adapt? Because now we are referring to Indian colleagues. In todays work environments, it’s multi cultural. So we cant expect everyone to know the quirks of everybody else’s cultural e

As someone that builds platforms for a living, the core reason I believe is that AWS is now a spaghetti monolith. It was somewhat a natural consequence because the type of service AWS provides which is infrastructure. It evolves very slowly

So if i started with AWS, and then later decide to add infra from other cloud providers. i must somehow remind myself to use AWS ntp servers. If not be ready for surprises?

Thanks for the detailed explanation! We didnt look into this so detailed yet but what you are describing sounds familiar. Since we have premium support (P1?), we had some internal azure postgresql engineer look at the issue and they pushed
