To be clear, I did not write my comment to discredit the entire system. B-Corp is certification is the best thing we have to make these decisions a little easier on the consumer. I…

If they'd be that malicious, they could also change their bot's UA, so would it really matter?

A long time ago, I was still in college (UK college, i.e., pre-university), and still learning. I discovered a classmate was involved in some event, and found the event's website. …

There's nothing wrong with that. VSCode will certainly have a lot more development that a fork would ever see. So the best thing to do here is simply build VSCode with all propriet…

I could be wrong, but I don't see any announcements anywhere on the price change.

None of these clients filter ads. They just return the API results. Reddit could have in theory returned ads and blocked clients who didn't (or required them to pay some/more money…

But a complete revamp doesn't necessarily mean bad UI/UX. It just means something different. It can be done in an equally good or better way. In comparison, the Reddit UI was just …

Why is it that companies go towards bad UX when they start ramping up profits? Download size is one thing, but ignoring that, how is it that they thought the new (Reddit) website w…

I just get a page not found.

> DNS, ALB and TLS certs could be easily handled from just a few lines of Terraform, and nobody needs to touch it ever again. Welcome to reality, where this is not the case. I'm cu…

Assuming you're joking, ECS here stands up Elastic Container Service.

I find it really wild that anyone would ever recommend ECS. A developer deploying a service involves: - Setting up certs (managed as TF) - Setting up ALBs (managed as TF) - Setting…

> you know exactly what it is But you don't though, do you? "Vegan cheese" isn't cheese. Instead, it's a bunch of ingredients to make it feel and taste like cheese, but it's not ch…

This is inherently not the same, though. Sure, companies come in all sorts of shapes and sizes, but a company's first and foremost interest is profit for the shareholder. For a per…

Sorry, no dice. It isn't, at least not intentionally.

If not for the brand difference, it should be done to avoid Amazon's lawyer from coming after you.

> 10k M2M tokens for $250/month sounds like a really bad deal if I can just spin up https://github.com/ory/hydra that can easily handle 10k requests per second. Spinning one up is …

Maybe it's because I'm naive when it comes to Nix, but so far everything Nix related I've seen requires some file configuration that no everyone is able to keep up with. Compare th…

This is a regular VM. Specially it's qemu-kvm. The difference being that this is running qemu-kvm inside a container (remember, containers are mostly just processes). The advantage…

If I'm reading this[0] correct, according to GitHub it includes that too. [0] https://docs.github.com/en/site-policy/content-removal-polic...

According to Wikipedia[0], using "ise" is still the British spelling, as well as Australian spelling. However, the Oxford spelling of these words are using "ize". After a customary…
