  • I agree, that good cloud engineers can save costs in the cloud. But I also think good non-cloud engineers, can save much much more.

    When you are rewriting your entire stack to leverage cloud performance, you could probably spend a similar effort for a rewrite that increases regular performance by a similar factor.

    RE: Containers, even if you DO go that route...

    I was under the impression, that stateless stuff without containers requires a strong vendor login (aws lambda, google functions, azure function). Are you saying, I could do stateless without vendor-lockin and without containers and without kubernetes? This is news to me. Please point me to some resources

  • One’s an active decision

    There are not so many quality notebooks without any brand-logos on them.

    Also wearing a brand-logo when you have the choice not to, is kinda cringe.

  • what does "get surprised on their own call" mean?

  • Because megacorps are at least “smart enough” to pretend they aren’t trying to take over the world.

    there are enough examples for corps doing evil things. You hear about them less often, because they cover their tracks and the outcry is generally smaller than when governments do similar things.

    Whereas governments have a tendency to justify a lot of horrible shit for righteous reasons.

    corps justify a lot of horribble shit for financial reasons. Is that better?

  • who else should be a significant backer for an open source project? google? microsoft?

  • That’s still not how governments work

    It would be nice if it worked like that, but we both know it doesn't

  • I just want to point out, that what you are saying sounds good in an ideal world. But the realitiy looks different. (I actually typed out some points, but then I remembered that I don't want to engage in yet another lengthy internet-debate, that ultimately comes down to personal preferences and philosophy)

  • I use like 3 of the git-feature from intellij (out of 100 or so). But these 3 features save me a lot of time.

    (the other 2 being the 3-way-merge-view and the commit-view where I can select changes for staging)

  • Another advice ...quick way to squash all your commits

    in your IDE select the commits you want to squash. Then rightclick. Then "squash". All done.

  • At the ML course at uni they said verbatime that they are plagiarism machines?

    Did they not explain how neural networks start generalizing concepts? Or how abstractions emerge during the training?

  • WD40 is a Water Displacer as much as AR15 is an Assault Rifle.

    Fight me.

  • I think the "Destitute" level should drop the case and replace it with a paperclip (to bridge the power button)

  • it's all of them

  • I’m no security expert and the sensible thing to do is using a library instead of taking a class.

    Counterpoint: "not knowing your libraries" + "blind trust in the maintainer" will give you stuff like this: https://bitbucket.org/snakeyaml/snakeyaml/issues/561/cve-2022-1471-vulnerability-in

    (the thread itself is worth a read. But also very impressive is the list of big players who fell for exactly this mentality)

  • EMBRACE

  • windows 11 suck ass I especially hate chatgpt
