If you're talking about HBO Go, I don't know how you gauge success, but if it's subscriber numbers I would take that with a grain of salt. I am a Comcast subscriber, and like many Comcast subscribers I'm sure, I have one

Thanks! Pretty sure you can get progressive versions of this type of behavior (where obj["field"] is equivalent to obj[:field] or obj.field) by using Ruby's HashWithIndifferentAccess and/or OpenStruct classes, but those

What have you got against symbols exactly? I don't know enough about the reasons why they are implemented to argue this strongly, but I know that they are immutable and that they are one step closer to the language in the sense that, c

This article is terrible and seems to have been flagged off the front page, but how do you know that it didn't happen exactly like they say? The Reddit thread I linked below had corroborating witnesses showing up to say that is exactly

Yes. The Reddit thread was really interesting because some Irish commented, and they talked about how the Catholic hospitals and the Gardai (local police) worked together in this scheme. https://www.reddit.com/r/worldn

Fair enough. Thanks for the education in terms. I'm extrapolating a lot from a small comment, so forgive me if I've misinterpreted your comment, but I have an issue with your reasoning; I don't know what it tells us that 50%

Is it possible that the fact of receiving a diagnosis is more strongly correlated with the likelihood of getting help than you accounted for? Also, what is "diagnosable" – that sounds suspiciously different than "diagnosed.&

ELI5: do you want to manage EC2 nodes and run containers on them? Use ECS (until you outgrow it. Why not... it is the cheapest of the three.) Do you want to run Kubernetes in production, but afraid to do it yourself? (You probably know a

You told me you thought I'm not in the minority, and others have come forward to agree. I think we are the long tail. It is exactly as you say, companies that don't want to spend more than they absolutely need to on infrastructur

I'd speculate that Google did it on purpose the first time (everyone knew there had to be an announcement coming, and the date of re:Invent was well known in advance.) Given what some are saying in this thread here today, I would not b

You're obviously no slouch, and I respect your opinion, but I think Amazon is all about the long tail and without speculating too much about what they are thinking, I'll say they might disagree. They are obviously smart to go for

"No experience" is a stretch. I'll concede, no significant Prod experience to speak of. I got introduced to the Kubernetes ecosystem when Deis Workflow was rebuilt for it. Today, I'm a core contributor on the team that

Not only recently, but actually this was the cost until yesterday for GKE with HA masters distributed across AZs[1]! I only heard that this announcement from AWS was likely coming this morning, over here in the thread about upgrading GKE

I'm pretty clearly in the minority with my opinion here, and I recognize that. Amazon has made a substantial investment in Kubernetes here and that is nothing to shrug at. They are entitled (and justified) to recoup it. It's fai

Here's the scoop[1] It sounds like you must have taken some investment to qualify. But I believe my friend received the credit, and I have no idea if his business has received any investments or participates in any accelerator program

You can afford ~5 preemptible instances for the cost of one full-time instance. I think you are severely overestimating the harm that is done by preempting/terminating instances in a prod Kubernetes cluster that is capably configured

Sure, I guess so, it's a value add. Your engineers can't mess anything up if they have no access at all.

by yebyen 8y ago
Yeah, none of the rest of the big three are asking you to pay anything for those masters at this point, though. "They're your nodes, you paid for them" seems like a reasonable position to take here.

Just guessing, I think they were thinking, "We'd better put something out there in GA before Azure/AKS does. We're already late to the party." Maybe they actually don't think of that at all... I'm very s

That's $150/mo before you even launch a single worker tho. I don't know about you, but I'd personally rather pay the $5 if I don't need a serious cluster yet. How much in actual absolute dollars do you think this i

by yebyen 8y ago
The Google GKE offering can operate with a single g1-small worker. That's $0.0257/hr or $0.0070/hr preemptible. $5/mo minimum* This is not even the same ballpark. *(to be fair, the $5/mo minimum does not include a

That's exactly what CI does. It saves me from doing it, and it can do so with concurrent workers (say, if I finish the next thing before the hour is up. Should I be running the two concurrent test suites on my local machine? Or hold
