"Oct 20 3:35 AM PDT The underlying DNS issue has been fully mitigated, and most AWS Service operations are succeeding normally now. Some requests may be throttled while we work toward full resolution."
- May not require a membership. Must accept credit cards. May not charge more without a membership. Must display price per KwH before charging. Phone-based and car-based payment interfaces allowed but must not be required of the customer.
Cries in European. It'd solve some of my absolute pet peeves with charging: no membership, no over charging without membership AND display price BEFORE charging.
The "bill shock" experience is real here. It happens I pay 2x the average price at random locations without any possibility to see that before I'm finished.
I am "forced" to allow "our" domains to be DNSSEC because... an auditor suggested it as a possible improvement and some manager thought it a good idea to do whatever said auditor proposes.
The argument that absolutely nothing that the world relies on, is not being singed (google Facebook reddit Cisco MicroSoft etc) holds no clout with the believers, unfortunately.
We all have 24 hours, there is no "finding time", it is just prioritising one thing over the another.
In the mids of my booming (cough) career, I was blessed with 4 children within 5 years. My prios shifted and still I was able to progress in my job, maintain social contacts and sleep :)
Turns out I was maxing my work hours to the absolute max before, and with far less pure time spend doing my job, I reached the same quality & respect. I had been spending my energy / time wrong / sub optimal.
Since that "revelation" I can do soo much more, that I deem important. Including spending very serious quality time with my children & partner. Much more than I was able before.
Simply because I've been driving TVs for a while and "in the beginning" when there was no rules for brake lights to be turned on when regenerative breaking, I got into trouble (German highways) with cars driving behind me and not being able to anticipate / react fast enough when I used it.
I quickly learned to force the break lights and started to follow this issue closely. That's how I became aware of the number.
How the EU saddled for 1.3 and not 1.2 or 1.4 is beyond my knowledge.
The European Union has a regulation that requires EVs to illuminate their brake lights anytime the regenerative-braking system’s deceleration rate exceeds 1.3 meters per second squared, or about 0.13 g.
We spend much "downtime" learning, reading and writing (pseudo) code. Remember, coding was new, access to existing "examples" close to zero, so we had to figure a lot of stuff out.
Paper (no whiteboards either) was an excellent way to tinker, show off and bounce off ideas.
I still find myself writing / drawing a lot before I actually touch a keyboard.
I had the pleasure to deal with both authorities and the business side of securing platforms that handle the container checks & harbour access.
The forces who are, let's call it "not happy" with any form of security (access control, logging, monitoring, malware, RATs etc.) is insane.
At times I felt nearly half of all involved parties were corrupt. Top to bottom. Commercial and governmental.
Sold absolutely zero solutions and decided to never again deal with the whole industry.
Edit: for completeness I should add that many did not want any additional security measures since this might leave the traffickers no other choice but to get more physical.
So at least they get some old accounts to become active again :D
