Man, Jon and Vangelis is a surprisingly good album

I have heard this also. I still find it wild that Azure DevOps had that feature long before GitHub

> the bottleneck is no longer engineering, it’s ____ 90% of blog articles created in the last two years are probably dead on arrival

Oh, I assumed that was a joke. I’ll have to check my privilege

Earlier this evening, we were informed by an independent security researcher about an issue involving a third-party storage service we utilize. Based on our immediate investigation…

Fully fashioned hand knit stuff looks great! I just haven’t seen a wholegarment machine knit shirt that looks nice. Maybe because the yarn isn’t as chunky.

I'm kind of in this space - 3d knitting is pretty interesting, but knitting a sweater like that takes a long time (I forget how long, but I think it's 1-2 hours), so it's not reall…

My god. I hope the constant refreshing helps. Seems like it would be increasingly difficult to make a case for switching to GitHub.

Pretty sure someone at MS told me that Actions was rewritten by the team who wrote Azure DevOps. So bureaucracy would be a feature. That aside, GH Actions doesn’t seem any worse th…

The WSJ interviewing and quoting the kids is priceless

Exactly - film photographers heavily process(ed) their images from the film processing through to the print. Ansel Adams wrote a few books on the topic and they’re great reads. And…

I havent been through the US process in a while, but usually that is allowed if your application is processing. You just can’t leave the country.

I worked on the data platform at a smaller car co, and there were tight controls around getting access to precise geo data, and there were strong privacy advocates at higher levels…

Maybe, but a 200 person company isn’t really that big. The CEO should probably get over themselves if they think they couldnt possibly know everyone at least a little bit.

I dont think the solution to not knowing people in your company is to create bureaucracy. Ie - only hanging with 10 executives and a focus group. Get out there and talk to people f…

I'd probably use a jsonfield in postgres for data that i knew was going to be unstructured. meanwhile, other columns can join and have decent constraints and indexes.

I’m curious about the resilience bit. Are you planning on some sort of active-active setup with mongo? I found it difficult on AWS to even do active-passive (i guess that was docdb…

Well, sounds like a VC but without a good bit of the stress and hassle. Like you wouldnt have to gin up money from LPs

Snowflake is expensive, even compared to Databricks, and you pay their pre-AWS discount storage price while they get the discount and pocket the difference as profit
