As a programmer you need (or actually want) to make use of some of the most acrobatic shortcuts that cross a large portion of the keyboard. Having a smaller keyboard just makes tha…

I assume Apple will just remove it from the US App Store. You are aware that Apple can control the listed apps in the App Store per country?

Added to this, the additional light, especially so close to the front window, reduces your visibility, certainly on pitch dark roads. You'd be amazed how well you can see on a pitc…

Ok, I quickly did the math for 500 lambdas (1Gb): Provisioned: 500 * 86400 (sec/day) * 0.000004167 ~= $180 Keep-alive: 500 * 1440 (min/day) * 2 (sec. runtime) * 0.000016667 (100ms …

That's why I mentioned 'with maybe some overhead'. You can also have the keep-alive handling take a second or 2 extra to complete, to have the lambda blocked for this time, so the …

And what if I fire 500 concurrent keep-alive's? (Or maybe a bit of overhead). Then the 500 lambda instances will stay alive for a couple of minutes again, but I'm still only charge…

My bank doesn't even allow password resets like that. If you forget, you can request a new one, but that goes just like the initial setup: you get 2 separate documents per post, on…

Adding to that: written code has no value, only running code has. The quality of what running code is, or needs to be, depends on the stage of your product and who will be responsi…

> consider going old school and rendering your HTML on the server; you might be delighted One idea I'd wish more sites would consider.

I was about to say that. Another one of hundreds of submissions of a site that has literally no info about what it is. What's the point?

It's easy to solve in the application, but then I need to have an http and https endpoint in my application, just for this redirect, already behind the ALB. I mean, if they can bui…

This is nice, but how about a simpler feature for the ALB: redirect http to https.

".. wants to send you notifications", "... wants to know your location", etc. are insta-close-never-come-back-again sites. Indeed incredibly annoying.

I wanted to sign up for Office 365 a while ago. First thing that bothered me was the password limit of min 8 and max 16 characters (plus all the capital, special character, etc sac…

Opinions differ here. It's said that onions were added to deflect the salty taste, as much salt was used in the old days for preservation. As we now have deep freezers and shipment…

- A decent minimum password length, without any funky requirements, just the minimal length. - Being able to prosecute any company that stores passwords in plain text

How is using an online service as a starting point for security a good thing?

"Github charges based on the number of repositories" Might be worth noticing that this is for the SaaS. The enterprise install is charged per user. Makes sense too I guess since th…
