Issues like this are so wild to me. It's not like Utah is Rich with coal or oil and there is fierce competition for energy. This is an opportunity to bring dollars and jobs to thei…

Didn't M8g just come out? Am I crazy?

I see people grow in two directions. Some grow upward, becoming manager, director, VP, etc. Others grow outward, branching into new technologies and disciplines, while remaining an…

We deserve better than shitty clickbait titles.

Fun fact, it's not only legal to melt pre-1964 currency, it was often encouraged as a way for currency to hold its value. Pennies and Nickels do not fall into that bucket, however.…

I started using "The Cloud" in 2012 to build apps. At the time they called it Google App Engine. In the last 13 years a lot has changed and I've used all the main cloud offerings. …

MSK IAM support has long mystified me. I think they only supported Java for the first 9 months or so. Even then they still don't have GO or PHP support. It's not a ton of work, the…

I work at a popular Seattle tech company. and AI is being shoved down our throats by leadership. to the point it was made known they're tracking how much devs use AI and I've even …

pdfbox is just as good for 99.9999% of documents. We used to use iText and in the last renewal, they tried to 10x our yearly license cost to the point it would have been more expen…

I completely agree. I've worked at three places with unlimited PTO and none of them do. I think the moment you set that expectation the illusion of being unlimited goes away.

Beyond the fact that it is a total scam, it also creates a lot of animosity among employees. Because there is no set limit, heck there are rarely guidelines, people often feel it's…

> but more importantly it takes just doing fantastic work when the opportunities present themselves. It has taken me a decade to realize this is the key to success. Just do your ve…

There is another dimension to this that most people haven't talked about, remote and gig work. For most small and medium businesses, it's cost prohibitive to hire remote employees.…

This article amounts to someone whining because they didn't take necessary action to prevent a dumpster fire. AWS's Managed Elasticsearch has tradeoffs and you should understand th…

Lack of security? AWS offers very granular, per index, authorizations that are tied into IAM in the same way you would configure S3 or DynamoDB. If user's are failing to implement …

This is a non-issue. The URLs are way to unique to guess (you'd have an easier time guessing an email/pass/2FA). And ones ability to access the URL at all is the same as their abil…

I would love to see the look on the face of the guy at the Apple Store when OP pulls out the multimeter. No disrespect, but in my experience they're good at handling common issues …

Serious question, what's the real harm in this since it's just public keys? Just allowing a server to discover all the other servers you may have been talking to?

Well the Glimmer 2.0 effort started around the same time Ember 2.0 shipped (Aug 2015). That was 16 months ago, Glimmer 2.0 shipped about 2 months ago, ergo 14 months. I agree that …

LOL. I love how full of his own crap Tom Dale has become. Ember is a good framework with a lot of potential, but more than anything it needs a good PM. Ember devs just spent nearly…

Yeap. Google Cloud Project customer here, we have a team of devs unable to login to our infrastructure. I sure hope we don't have a dumpster fire in production :)

There are no absolutes when it comes to criminal punishment. There is always an exception to everything. That said, I've long thought if you stop treating people like animals, they…

Right. Of course not. "Forever" was a term relative to my lifespan.

"Forever" is a very long time. Hopefully 60 more years if I'm lucky. Way long than most off the shelf storage devices will last. I currently have about 2GB of personal files (and g…
