Honestly I felt the same way for a while but the more I'm exposed to both Fortune 500 companies and ones who have a handful of employees I see Kubernetes as just a good starting po…

You’re better off wiping and reinstalling the OS than trying to clean the system.

The hexagon is the best-agon

While I can’t speak for the others, AWS doesn’t replace all of etcd. Only the raft consensus layer which is replaced with Journal which is an internal AWS service.

What is deceleration but acceleration in the opposite direction? /s

Honestly that’s been half the fun of it to me. Trying to out prompt the other players.

All the pressure in the world at work could not make me consider any level of prompt engineering or use of Gen AI. This got me hooked in 5 minutes. I updated my “word” so many time…

The latest deep dive on S3 at reinvent sheds some light on how it’s done. https://youtu.be/NXehLy7IiPM

Your problem here is waiting until 1.28 to be released before starting your upgrades from 1.24. A version or two is one thing but 4 versions and you’re just asking to be constantly…

Well neither of those fall under technology so they have no place on the list.

Yes, that’s the current state of affairs. My bank receives the money in my account from my employer’s bank but it takes a couple days to clear. Right now many banks will make this …

That’s spot on. I work at a large cloud provider and one of our larger eCommerce customers had an outage in a kubernetes cluster which handled the front end traffic routed through …

“I saw people moving from ‘the following tools have these benefits and drawbacks’ to ‘it is trendy so lets do it’.”

I’m with you on this. I’d love to be able to replace the thumb cluster on one side with a trackball.

I recently began working for AWS and I love my job. I get a lot of satisfaction in soloing customer issues even when they’re not really AWS related.

Isn’t the downside to this then that although you’re using the native browser you’re losing the whole point of Electron which is to have a consistent environment regardless of wher…

Disclaimer: I work for AWS I think Outpost is a great hybrid-ish solution for those companies with workloads in AWS that want to supplement that with on-premise workloads using the…

Isn’t the whole idea to just use DNS?
