I wrote about the UniSuper issue at the time: https://danielcompton.net/google-cloud-unisuper . It was a pretty nasty bug where their VMWare environment was created with a one-year…

GitHub has automatic secret scanning on all public repositories which notifies AWS if access keys are pushed. I would have expected these tokens to be immediately revoked by AWS. I…

Could you please pass on feedback to the team that the git diff view is very hard to read for red/green colourblind users like myself? Colour scheme like GitUp.co is very readable …

I'd be very interested to know how they produce it if the formula is so tightly held. At some point people need to be purchasing the ingredients and mixing them together.

From the article: The intention of OrioleDB is not to compete with Postgres, but to make Postgres better. We believe the right long-term home for OrioleDB is inside Postgres itself…

Looks like it, based on this video driving on the left side of the road in what looks to be Australia: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fkh3s6WHJz8

I listened to https://www.localfirst.fm/18 recently from Electric-SQL. One of the things James mentioned was that Electric lets you use commodity CDNs for distributing sync data, w…

Will this be partially available from the Claude website for connections to other web services? E.g. could the GitHub server be called from https://claude.ai ?

https://where.durableobjects.live is a good website that shows you where they live. Only about 10-11% of Cloudflare PoPs host durable objects. Requests to another PoP to create a D…

The issue here is that if company.com does not use Google Workspace and hasn't claimed company.com, then any employee can sign up for a "consumer" Google account using user@company…

I don't really understand what this is offering beyond Cloudflare's recent release of running SQLite in durable objects: https://blog.cloudflare.com/sqlite-in-durable-objects/ . Is…

Could you explain more why you were you not able to sign the URLs at request time? Creating an HMAC is very fast.

The Surface Laptop scored 1,745 on the Procyon AI Score, while the MacBook Air managed 889. Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X Elite has 45 TOPS of AI acceleration performance, much more than…

Thanks for pointing that out. I had a look at the Terraform provider but missed that delayHours was hardcoded to 0. I’ll update the article.

You should add this as a reply to the top comment as well.

A general issue I have with GCP docs is that they are overly implicit. Often the interaction of two features is implied but not specified. Another issue I have is when implementati…

Presumably GitHub/GitLab support is coming, but this is quite a limited product at the moment. It doesn’t even support their own Cloud Source Repositories. You can version the Terr…

Co-founder of Clojurists Together here, I’m really proud of what the Clojure community was able to fund here. Now, all Firefox users will be able to use custom formatters. They’re …

This is all based on the authors' estimations, not actual measurements or observations. The scholars first estimated the cumulative weight of New York’s buildings to be 1.68 trilli…

How much of the latency reduction was due to the data services layer with request coalescing and how much was from ScyllaDB? Did the schema and other factors stay the same when mig…
