Know when to shitcan a bad idea rather than death march your company into oblivion by not concentrating on the core business and customers to deliver the bad idea.

Nope. Someone else already announced what they’re doing at least a year before and also, it’s Google, who don’t have a good reputation among colleagues and friends. We all have our…

Similar weird problems in portrait mode on my iPhone 13 Pro. My youngest daughter comes out looking like an unholy tellytubby on crack for some reason. Got fed up of trying to nego…

I think they are load testing their github acquisition...

Had this on eBay a couple of times. You need to photograph the package before you send it inside and out if it’s worth anything significant. UPS and Hermes at least won’t pay out o…

Nope I don't take any drugs of any kind. Low fibre in keto diet caused an obstruction and perforation.

Usual eBay tactics. I’m a long term seller on eBay and it’s a shit show. The only reason I use it is because the market is the best out there. EBay don’t give a crap about anything…

That’s all I want

Working in the sector it’s everywhere already even if you have multiple bank accounts or not. The banks are by far the least of your worries.

HSBC are notorious bastards and I fired them ages ago. They transferred £2000 out of my account randomly one day with no cause or explanation when there was £118 available in it. T…

Constipation believe it or not.

One that actually works properly and doesn’t sound like ass is revolutionary. That’s where apple win.

Perforated bowel.

The tiny little notepad2 window on my otherwise perfect 200% scaled windows laptop says otherwise. Windows HiDPI has been a constant shit show for me.

Not going to list them here but I suggest you go and do some research of the side effects and risks from actual medical research not HN users. For me it ended in a few days in hosp…

This is terrible advice. Any fads are. Ketogenic diets are not good for you in any way. Bad behaviour starts with acknowledgement and the best way to do that is to track what you e…

Oh yes egress pricing is horrible. That’s why AWS/S3 looks nice to backup to but that first restore costs big time. One killer no one seems to notice is the bandwidth between avail…

These comparisons are fairly meaningless even on IaaS only class deployments. Instance costs aren't necessarily the biggest cost or the best cost optimisation path in the cloud. Fo…

The point is commitment allows you to optimise cost of baseline capacity. The only real benefits of the cloud are one cost centre, scale out without capex. Quite frankly if you’re …

Executable data was never a good idea.

It’s not dull really but I find it laborious and sometimes stupid. The sense of achievement has been sucked away by deep rabbit holes of research required to decipher even the simp…

Been hiking for a long time and do really long hikes. Eventually an epiphany or moment of self realisation will appear out of the blue. I had one at the weekend which was somewhat …

I’ve had severe deliverability issues with SES. You’re pooled with a lot of bad actors and occasionally you get a blacklisted outbound. They have a reputation system but it’s far f…

So much this. Also I use this tool to sketch out graphs quickly: https://dreampuf.github.io/GraphvizOnline/
