Disagree. A ticket should be created for any change, no matter how small. It takes seconds to write a title, body and hit submit. I've seen those small ad-hoc changes cause havoc because someone forgot to escape a single quote or didn't realize tabs were necessary and replaced them with spaces.
The default for Confluence is just that, everyone commits at will. There is no structure, tons of duplication, no standards when it comes to naming, formatting, audience, etc. I'm a huge fan of markdown/plain-text solutions, only because linters can be run that force you down one happy path. I don't believe Confluence has linters at all.
You can! At least with GitLab. Our pipelines are written in Python, and generate YAML that kick off child-pipelines. It's fairly trivial and works really well. Having for-loops and building an object based on functions making things so much easier.
Nah, Ibuprofen definitely affects the kidneys. It's on my mental list of medications never to try again. It always leaves me writhing in pain (thought it was my lower back that was on fire, turns out it was my kidneys).
Could not disagree more. For entertainment purposes, I've installed neovim with `brew install neovim`. Opened a small project with `nvim ~/projects/whatever`, and am presented with a screen full of errors (https://imgur.com/D0ydDIG). Pressing enter brings me to a blank screen with even more errors. It then drops me into a vim document with some modal screens and now now I'll probably spend hours researching what all these mean, why this is happening, etc.
All those features you've listed aren't anywhere on the homepage, how does one even do that? I'm interested in learning more, but to think one can do this in a weekend just isn't true.
While I'm sure I could figure out all these kinks, its just software, it's the time sink that makes me pause. I don't see the value here, but I also don't know what all it can do compared to my current workflow with VSCode.
When job hunting, I'll skip those companies that require me to type out my resume. That's why I wrote the resume in the first place. Similar feelings towards those that want it in Microsoft Word format. Companies have their own filtering mechanisms, and so do I.
Am I sure? No, haha. Maybe I don't understand stove terminology. I thought induction were the metal coils that turn red. Maybe induction is different than a regular electric?
Disagree. The coils on an induction take way longer to heat up than gas, I've gone through that frustration. How can you beat instant fire? The top of it was always scratched which ruined the kitchen aesthetic.
Also, our gas range saved us during the Texas freeze. Used my lighter to get the gas going and we were able to cook and stay warm for a bit, keeping the window open so we wouldn't die. If I'm out camping, sure, pairs well with my portable solar panels and goal zero.
I hate PDF's with a passion. Not once have I ever wanted to use one. All the pinching and zooming, such a waste of time. I'm giving this a shot next time I need one, the whole scanner thing needs to go. Are we stuck in the 90's?
Just bought another rental and it was an ordeal trying to find a scanner. Tried the college near me, was denied as you have to be a student. The library is closed down apparently. FedEx didn't have one. The one at the Office Depot was broken. I ended up driving 30 miles to a friends house to use theirs, which required driver upgrades since nobody had used it in a year. I don't understand the point of jumping through all these hoops.
I feel the same with credit card signatures, completely useless and has never once helped me with identity theft or fraudulent transactions. Now I just draw a horizontal line or smiley face.
You beat me to it, was going to say the same. It's always a few bad actors that try and hammer our servers, gets annoying real fast. I'd honestly block them and move on, I don't have time to investigate every single request. Now to sue someone? That seems like a waste of everyone's time.
Yes! Was going to say the same. Kubernetes is far easier to learn than some random bespoke setup. After reading the article, it just sounds like they reinvented the wheel but made it AWS specific for some reason.
Was brought on as a consultant years ago and found their bespoke setup of random ec2 instances and lambda scripts to be far more difficult to understand than just spinning up a managed Kubernetes cluster and having a generic interface to deploy the application, as well as monitoring, logging, metrics, etc.
It's such a confusing slogan (probably on purpose, like most things political). I thought it meant to abolish the police. Even a quick search defines it as "prevent from continuing to receive funds".
If folks intend it to mean "reduce funds" or "reallocate funds", then we should say that.
CloudFormation is too limited. I imagine most companies use much more than AWS. Off the top of my head, we use Cloudflare, PagerDuty, GitLab, etc all of which have Terraform providers.
What happens when you have to use something outside of AWS? How do you codify those changes?
I'll chime in. When I first used Terraform, it was described as this tool that would create resources in a cloud agnostic way. That's still possible, but not the main focal point.
Terraform just takes any API (called terraform providers) and applies the GitOps philosophy to it. That's it. Now you can easily recreate resources with a single command, modify whatever parameters you need, store those changes in Git, etc.
Yes, one long curl command would give you the same results but then you miss out on the concept of dependencies or API versioning or simple programming constructs like reading from a file or looping over values.
This is scary to read, as I've been there. All my friends know not to give me Tylenol. I think on two occasions now I had slight pain and took maybe two or three extra strength Tylenol, and was found on the floor shivering, sweating, waiting for death. This wasn't even an OD, this was recommended dosage. I don't think I'll ever take Tylenol again, I'll deal with the pain. This felt like my kidneys were on fire and not so much liver, so what do I know.
I actually don't use Twitter much because of this. I'll lurk for sure, but I'm more active on Snapchat where I know all my thoughts and photos will be gone. You ever see those folks get fired because of what they said years ago? Pass.
It took forever, but I finally made the switch a month or two ago. Firefox Quantum had promised to fix performance issues on the MacBook Pro, but tons of users (myself included) were complaining of CPU or RAM spiking, making it unusable. I'm trying to find the article, but they switched something, maybe the way windows are drawn, and all those issues are now gone.
There was also the bug where the top of the tab bar would have these little random glitches, and that has been fixed as well. There isn't anything for me to complain about anymore. Good job Mozilla!
It blows my mind that someone that makes more money than me, pays less taxes than me. Why? Well, I know why, but why is it like this? I don't care if my neighbor has more money than me, I care if the rules are the same.
We read that the wealthy are taxed at a lower tax bracket because most of their income doesn't come from a paycheck, but from investments which are taxed at a lower rate. I can never compete, because I do not have investments that would generate a return similar to my current salary. Unfair rules in my opinion.
