We had something similar happen with lifecycle rules, moving an entire bucket to glacier: end result was > $200k and AWS weren’t especially helpful on our attempts to refund us. We…

You know, I feel like the perfect person to answer this. I used to be a sysadmin, then a devops engineer, then a "VP of Infrastructure", and I'm currently doing some hands on work …

I'm not surprised it failed, with such drastic changes. Why couldn't they add a constraint of no more than 15 minutes change and reapply every year for 5-10 years until they reach …

My biggest issue with SICP was the lack of available unit tests for the exercises. I'd often "get it wrong" and have no recourse but to read a solution to see that I'd failed to ac…

I ran into something very similar with a cluster almost identical to you. Turns out the default disk size for kops is 25G and when your masters run out of space things start to die…

The one thing I really wish I had was a comprehensive test suite for all the exercises. They are (obviously) hard to solve and there's no other way to see if you were right but to …

How do you judge those qualities? I too interview for a similar set of skills (intelligence, curiosity, a desire to constantly improve things, someone who's just willing to put in …

I cancelled both my accounts over this. It'll be a personal pain, as everything on my ipad hooks in nicely to dropbox, but it's worth it in order to not support one of the Bush era…

This is pretty timely, I tried and failed to get into Chapter 2 of SICP just a few months ago and eventually got discouraged and ran out of steam. I signed up for this, maybe it'll…

I've been using Hetzner for my development machine for a while now and they have been fantastic. Great support, great price. It sucks a little to SSH from here to Germany but it's …

I'm unconvinced by the low cost aspect. Low cost is the listing at http://www.soyoustart.com/us/offers.xml . You're cheaper than a lot of the premium hosters, but not the budget an…

I miss Ol' Ironsides, the best Planet 6 Moon 4 POS ever.

I'm in an air cast boot thing right now and until recently I was on crutches. I'd say 16% is about average for people willing to look me in the eye and speak to me. Most people del…

I'm starting work at Puppetlabs in exactly a week's time as part of a brand new "module team" and I personally promise you here and in the open that I am going to tackle the puppet…
