Clearly not consulted earlier, ChatGPT weighs in on these two reasons: https://chat.openai.com/share/7cd52d82-b36b-42c6-9d13-eb7172... . Edit: even following the basic steps it out…

This is just not true for us. I'll share again what I've said before: we’ve been testing the upgraded GPT-4 models in the API (where you can control when the upgrade happens), and …

I don't know why I keep seeing comments like these. We've had to delay the latest API model upgrade because it's dramatically worse at all of our production tasks than the original…

We’ve been testing the upgraded models in the API (where you can control when the upgrade happens), and the newer ones perform significantly worse than the older ones on the same t…

Really enjoyed all the minute details in this piece, like watching a documentary.

Yes, have been planning on it for awhile but yesterday's outage was last straw for us. Probably moving to Fly.io ( https://fly.io ).

The announcement implies that they no longer attempt fast charging over USB-C, so lower power requirement will improve reliability with 3rd party hardware.

My guess is this change was brought about by all the poor quality USB-C cables, hubs, and chargers out there. I bricked my Macbook Pro M1 by trying to power it from a supposedly co…

It depends on the organization. We've had leaders move back to IC roles (and are going through one of these transitions now, actually), but I think it requires the organization to …

Yes. As of a couple years ago at least, Slack was a monolithic PHP app that could support a few thousand users in a single team. Each “workspace” was assigned to a server and scale…

Most Swift code is divided nicely up into modules, which are compiled together and have their own namespace. https://developer.apple.com/library/content/documentation/Sw...

Unfortunately, iptables can't protect against all forms of DDOS attacks. Even just getting flooded by packets being routed to a particular IP can cause a datacenter's network to be…

It's related. This was during the early versions of the security patch, which was causing performance and clock skew issues for PV instances ( https://twitter.com/kainosnoema/statu…

Just enabled it for our account (incredibly easy, single-button activation), and by morning we had results showing some minor vulnerabilities in our public subnets that we were abl…

Actually I think their approach is great—it's very modular and there's little overlap between use-cases. An exception (among a few) may be ECS and EKS, where ECS was probably the w…

Yes, EKS is just managed K8s, which is the orchestration layer. You still need to have EC2 instances for the EKS tasks to be scheduled on. Unless you run your EKS tasks on Fargate,…

We launched our production workload in us-west-2 (Oregon) 4 years ago for this exact reason and it was one of the best decisions we made. Our staging servers in us-east-1 have expe…

Also getting 503 Slow Down and 500 internal server errors from S3 in us-east-1

Absolutely, I wasn't suggesting that you should change the naming. In fact I agree that nonce is likely not the best term for this. But the concept as it applies to HTTP APIs is a …
