Aldi has become our first stop for everything, if we can get it there we do before going to one of the big chains around us. Their prices are often 2-4x cheaper than the big chains…

Afraid of a specific thing or no fear in general?

I also like the frankness and simplicity of their communication style. No fancy buzzwords, to the point and speaks to things we all know are true but are typically not addressed or…

You can always use step functions or some janky recursive calls to work around the 15 min timeout. I would recommend using docker containers and writing it in a way that you can sw…

I’ve only been on the buying side but I’ve never had to wait at all to onboard once the contract was signed.

I get these as well..(twice so far) they are no fun to say the least. I’ve also read stories of the surgeries making “flare ups” more regular. Stress seems to be a big driver for m…

I spent many hours in http://www.cburch.com/logisim/ during my program doing the same thing. It was a great feeling to finally get a sub component correct and then copy it around i…

Also check out his “Alien languages” and “First Contact” videos!

It doesn’t though. Poverty is well defined (and is defined based on the number of people in the household). https://aspe.hhs.gov/poverty-guidelines

Not sure about volume but mass wise it’s a drop in the bucket. About 4% of the moons mass according to Wikipedia. I was surprised to learn that the earth is about as massive as Mer…

My understanding is that the “Andon Chord” was developed by Toyoda out of lean manufacturing in Japan as a result of resource constrained manufacturing. Do you have any information…

The downside to that development cycle is that there is an overwhelming number of league mechanics, particularly for new players.

Extract and load. It’s a variation of ETL where you push the Transformation(T) step into the warehouse as opposed to doing the T out of band in code. This allows you to retain the …

You probably just saved me a good 15min/week! Never knew you could toss “title:” in there. Thank you!

Thank you for all of your great Ansible work! I leverage a lot of them at work and they have been great! (I’ll be playing around with these!)

Wouldn’t composting have the same issue as tossing it in the dump though?

Many (all?) of the cloud providers offer credits to startups (credits as in free $ to spend on their services). So if they hadn’t burned through that, there would be no payment yet…

This is just patently false. There are many resources that are free for those in need. (Help lines, churche/synagogue/mosque, support groups, etc)

I don't have any specific experience with emails but any time I need to move a lot of data around I go with Apache Kafka and Apache Flume. Write all of your emails into a kafka top…

So everyone goes back to reviewing movies ahead of time and Disney feels no pain from their actions beyond a small PR hit. I feel like everyone framing this as "We won't pre-review…

Talked with one of the sales reps, starts at $1500/month. From what they said multi-tenant is about a month a way and self service cloud early next year.

https://m.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZHQObOWTQDPD3MizzM2xVF... The linear algebra series from 3blue1brown has some great explanations and visualizations for thinking about linear …

We do the EMR backed by s3 setup, only with snappy over gz as gz can't be split.

I've only used BlueApron and HelloFresh but the quality of the ingredients has been comparable to stuff picked up at Safeway. The real value for me besides time saved (and the insa…
