We’re still suffering from the skills lack after we fired our mentors and documentors after Y2K. We’ve been 20 years without proper mentorship already, and now the last of the mentors will leave the market to the lost boys.

Based on how often it happens, “curse and find whatever f’n tab is now making the noise” is my favourite game.

Fuck this “web as app” shit.

Butbutbut AWS reliability and many regions and zones means this can’t happen! ;-)

I feel this in my midnight cursing and investigation.

I gotta get HAss going so I can still use my lights when the clowd breaks.

I presumed the draw of us-east-1 was its lower cost

At no time is pub-cloud cheaper than priv-cloud.

The draw is versatility, as change didn’t require spinning up hardware. No one knew how much the data costs would kill the budget, but now they do.

universal single point of failure.

If it’s not a region failure, it’s someone pushing untested slop into the devops pipeline and vaping a network config. So very fired.

I love the “git gud” response. Sacred cashcows?

No jack? I’m out. This is partially a preference but more I don’t want to be forced into the bt earpod purchase loop.

You’re talking about the “95 percentile” rule, right?

This looks very nice.

Um, you know you’re supposed to keep dev tools in dev, right? Npm->commit->release payload without npm. Far fewer supply-chain exploits.

Bots eavesdropping? That’s a great way to see all the nerds dead silent on the mandated cam feeds except for the furious typing and occasional smirk. They’re probably working.

Still crutching on containers?

minimum spends

When you’re not on the car lot, the word is “budgets”.

… Carefully and with caution.

Choosing packages by popularity? Is that like choosing physiotherapy clinics by the font on the sign?

It’s an exciting world of file-to-object-to-file thunking. I’m surprised when it all works.

I block bad writers. It hurts my brain reading their work and I get sad.

Everyday Ai

IS there a mundane, everyday Ai ?

Smart money re-diversifies into more stable markets.

This will help fulfill the bubble prophesy that much faster.

Am biz. I see it.

Sovereignty is almost the issue that it needs to be, but our ‘security’ types totally trust MS at their word when they say “it’s only stored in your country and can’t be touched from here. Trust me, bro.”

These are security types who know to ask “how do you know” 5 times, and don’t even ask it once.
