Pre-cloud pets vs cattle approach. We ran a few pets, but had DC's worth of cattle thanks to PXE, TFPT and Ansible. No Terraform required, as there was no need to control the state…

This is applicable to far more than stroke victims. Any manner of brain interference should have the same ruleset. Reading through the comments, this ruleset should apply to everyo…

Captain Obvious chiming in here, but as one of those boring douche canoes whose concerns are data privacy, data locality and generally the ability to understand how AI trains off o…

I am a walking, talking, laughing, smiling result of the effects of immunotherapy. I was on Pembrolizumab on a six week cycle across eighteen months, administered at Charing Cross …

I was recently diagnosed with cancer. I've had brain surgery to remove 2 x tumours, targeted Gamma Knife radiotherapy to isolate treatment on an additional 18 lesions in my brain, …

Amen brother, amen.

At a company like the one I work for, it's a hill noone can afford to die on. PCI-DSS demands at least some control over employee laptops to ensure that certain secure configuratio…

I'm just going to jump in with an utterly pointless "woohoo!" As a gRPC shop, this is going to open up a lot of options for both our own infra and make it easier to support clients…

I think it depends heavily on what you're doing. My world is full of YAML/HCL/cnf files, and if I'm writing code, Go, where code is for software that runs from the command line, a …

Thanks. Having a look at Codacy.

Commenting to add languages: Java, Go, JavaScript, PHP and C# primarily. gRPC in Java services, tooling in Go and SDK's in all languages. Not much in the way of typical frameworks.…

Good day HN I'm on the lookout for static analysis tooling to apply to our toolchain, preferably at code review time. I thought it a good idea to ask the community here. A hosted s…

I somehow read that initially as RedHat as well. Curious as to how my habit of skim reading and incorrectly logging information has filled by brain with bitrot over the years.

Heh. Know of a team of engineers who deliberated over a brittle system for months. Mission critical, world ending stuff if it failed. Their manager got tired of waiting and sent a …

It's been an interesting year for AMD in the DIY builder space. The every man chip that seems to get recommended at every turn is the 3600X (or 3600 if you're partial to Gamers Nex…

I'd love to see the permit application form that would accompany this kind of thing today.

Would it be rude to say that AMD didn't have any other choice and that they needed to bake rapid iterations in their mainstream chips into their (R)DNA or die? ( From my lofty perc…

I get most of my outage notifications from HN. If it's a blip, it probably won't make the front page through my standard refresh cycle. If it persists through two refresh cycles, t…

You mean I have to open OpsGenie and Grafana now instead of waiting for a ping in the ops channel??? Also, how many IT service desk ticket systems just lit up with people asking th…

Granted. I have Drevo Calibur keyboards and Logitec MX Master S2 mice at both home and work. I've relegated my MacBook to being a flat desktop that gets hauled between the office a…

$499 for 12C/24T on the 3900X? $399 for 8C/16T on the 3800X? Those prices make this a very tempting chipset on top of the promised performance being touted by AMD. Looking forward …

As I sit here looking at the stupid TouchBar, the hunk of aftermarket plastic that contains an HDMI port, Thunderbolt port and USB ports hanging off the side of my MacBook Pro so t…

I’ve really been looking forward to these chips. The 2700X was pretty close to Intel in 1440p benchmarks, so I’m looking forward to what the likes of Gamers Nexus have to say about…
