Hi, we are currently discussing within our company if the current state of developer PC setup is okay ore should be improved. Current state: - Laptop with either Linux, Windows or …

When I write a bot like this I generally prefer using browser automation (like puppeteer). This requires less reverse engineering and is often a lot simpler and faster to implement…

You can now link the takeout to another cloud provider (e.g. Dropbox or Microsoft OneDrive). And configure the takeout to take place every two month (for up to 6 times). So you jus…

You can also just do a normal form post request into an invisible iframe that is generated by the attacker's javascript.

This is, as far as I know, only possible if you bought it online.

But managing an IRC server cluster for 10.000+ users is no simple task. Paying experts in their field (chat tools in this case) is most of the time the most reliable and cheapest v…

Yes, it has a package registry feature for NPM and Maven: Maven: https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/packages/maven_repos... NPM: https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/packag…

Did you try to upgrade using AWS database migration service?

Normally the operational status is automatically updated on outages. The past incidents part is managed manually.

Nearly everything. Old k8s version. No upgrade possible. Odd deployment process (not fully automated). Support is unable to help in a timely manner. First deployed cluster was dire…

I wonder who is writing those status messages. as a customer this reads like "please wait, ETA to fix unknown" in 10 different ways.

Yes it is nice for experiments, but if you already invest thousands of dollars a month for cloud resources, an additional 150$ are for sure not a problem.

I second this. This means you don't have to setup and manage those master nodes. AWS will do this for you. A developer fixing an issue with your self-managed master nodes will be m…

Yes, we are planning to just fail, as the chance of a collision is really low and the user will then be able to just retry creating the object.

The article contains a footnote about UUIDs as primary keys. > UUID as a primary key is a terrible idea, by the way — cryptographic randomness is utterly designed to kill locality …

I think hosting the repository is one thing. But integrating those two repositories with all the automated workflows is quite a headache. Jenkins won't automatically switch over to…

Yes, as mentioned in my other post, ChargeBee does this really well. We, as a German company, use it for our SaaS offering.

We use ChargeBee for our SaaS product. Really great offering! They give you a customer portal where the customer can cancel, update, upgrade, ... his subscription. We have a custom…

It depends on the user base. Customers of the company I work for mostly use IE or Edge and only Chrome because we highly suggest it. Without decent IE/Edge support we would have le…

What you forget is: You get so many features with Spring Boot and you can actually use them without increasing the memory footprint. Yes of course, for a single service with one en…

Yes... But such blog posts are terrible. They share bad knowledge and so many people trust such blog posts and make decisions based on this.

I don't get it. When you limit the memory of the java process it will be a _lot_ lower. A spring boot server can be started with -Xmx64m. Setting the memory limit to 200mb is more …

My hope is that at some point the auto sync is smart enough so we don't need any refresh button. For example: Instagram does auto sync of new posts, but it also has a refresh funct…
