Well there is initial setup at the very least. Hooking up whatever landline the client has with the SaaS solution. Then whenever a significant change is required, you need to call …

Ansible Tower lets you execute a playbook via a web GUI, and keeps a log of who executed what. I'm not sure if it also shows some infrastructure graphs, but I'm talking about knowi…

Like many here, I keep it described in ansible and documentation inside a git repository. But I feel like it's lacking. After a while you have so many ansible playbooks and roles t…

Unless something is keeping you there, just find a new job, here are some reasons: - If you reach this situation, you're more competent than the rest of the group. Nobody to learn …

I would bet they still burst-out to AWS. For me the logic is more like: get cheapers machines (be it in-house or with cheaper alternatives), that run kubernetes for example, and mo…

Do you still make a buck? Aren't you drowned by big players?

I find that there is often a problem of quality in products advertised. It may be products floating in Amazon searches because of fake reviews, sites with great SEO, and most ads o…

On the bright side, maybe the cryptoworld is merely investing on better GPUs by metric-tons of cash.

This is going to be very easy to block: disable processing after page-load, block the most popular cryptomining JS scripts...

Usually the difference between Free and Open Source also shows in who backs it. Free Sofware comes from NGOs, whereas Open Source is either corporations looking to make a convolute…

I actually like submodules, maybe it suffers from the awkward-at-first perception people have about git in general.

Or use pulseaudio under Linux and enjoy any setup you like of inputs and outputs!

Now that's a neat idea, they could offer the artists a platform to support them from genesis to well-known

The other day I was debugging an Ops issue only to find that it originated in a python-based executable. I soon found out it was a feature unfinished and buggy. There is a github i…

Any freelance technical expert That is not bullshitting. Paris/Mostly Paris/Various positions doing mostly linux stuff/Usually relaxed.

First of all, malicious developpers can still ask for unreasonable access and often do. How many times did you want to install an app and wonder why they ask for insane permissions…

What I'm reading is that you like a process to be enforced to guarantee some level of quality, which is indeed something I like as well. However I believe good package formats and …

So you want to limit creativity and empower big companies even more by pushing forward walled gardens, because there are too many ads on the download page of one paint app out of a…

Try Common Lisp, you get the basic blocks like a routing library, some templating and a db connector. Then you add up macros as you need them. Power without magic.

Oh I did not mean AWS would suddently rise their pricing, just that servers may scale, but so does the cost of the service, and inflexion points may bite you. Then, of course: "You…

He ends up being so tightly tied to Amazon it's scary to me. "You can scale all you want, servers are not your problem anymore!" proceeds to build a million dollar business "That'l…

I believe they do it because they've been elected to do so. It takes too much to reply: "Tell you what, I'm going to educate you better instead". Because you can educate all you wa…

Ruby comes from Japan

I cannot understand the need for a thing like Pocket. Much less why Mozilla prefers to keep it close, and even less for money. I mean, what is wrong with bookmarks and sharing link…

Which is not a bad call, looking modern helps recruit. It's great that technology x lets you build something in 1 month, but if it takes 6 months to find someone willing to do it, …
