You can also invoke a custom resource via SNS and then the SNS topic is subscribed to an API endpoint.

But it’s hard to believe if the team responsible for the blue green deployment functionality developed an API endpoint to do it, they couldn’t just hand it to the CF team to call. At the end of the day that’s all CF does. Call APIs based on the different lifestyle events as far as how it actually creates resources.

I don't see things as you do. Specialised protocols are better than generalised ones because they have understandable failure modes.

If DNS goes down, name resolution fails. But if DoH goes down, it could still be DNS, it could be TLS Suites, it could be incorrect headers, it could be mishandling of the proxy (or the proxy forwarding garbage), it could be anything.

that's why we consider DNS to be Layer 6 and not Layer 7, as things on Layer 7 may depend on it.

One of my older coworkers claims that one of the most impressive things he's seen in his career was an IBM mobile tech demo (mainframe in a semi truck) where the technician conducting the demo would reach into the machine and start randomly pulling out CPUs and memory, and then plugging them back in. The display would show the available resources and throughout of whatever computation they were running for the demo decrease as hardware was removed and then increase as it was added back, and the whole thing happened seamlessly without impacting the compute job.
No because the amount of money they spend on this is negligible compared to the shell game of pumping up equity valuations and getting out at the right time.

It's like running a shell game on the street, you let the first person win $20 so other people think it's possible then you scam all them. Except in this shell game we are also crushing small companies whenever possible.

As I read this, it's basically saying that a battery used for V2G power would spent more time at a lower state of charge which doesn't degrade the battery as fast, to such a degree that this factor outweighs the extra cycles on the pack?

> They don’t hijack https they hijack DoH

DoH stands for DNS-over-HTTPS. You cannot hijack DoH without hijacking an HTTPS connection.

> they’re just going to get the recursive resolver from dhcp

In answer to my earlier question then, you're using your ISP's DoH DNS service, correct? If that's the case, there's no hijacking going on.

> People who bother to use something are the same ones who will tunnel traffic or run their own resolver.

This is the reason Firefox went with CloudFlare's DoH. Resisting ISPs' bullshit is much of the point.
Arguing that the advantage of systemd is portability is rather bold!

And even if portability was the point I'm not sure I see the big deal. Writing an RC script from scratch if the software you use doesn't provide it is generally trivial. The vast majority of the time you wouldn't have to do that anyway as it ships with your OS's packages anyway. Sure, systemd might be "tidier" with its standard APIs and whatnot but it's also a lot more complicated and opaque than a bunch of shell scripts running one after an other. And if you're serious about sysadmin you'll have to learn shell scripting one day or the other anyway.

>Init scripts were always a poor-quality mess, non-portable among systems, non-consistent, non-deterministic.

They're non-portable, that much is true but so is systemd, that's a weak argument. If everybody had adopted FreeBSD-style init it would be equally as portable, it's a self-fulfilling prophecy. With that logic we should just all ditch un*x and start running Windows since most people already use that anyway.

The rest is nonsense. It's poor quality, non-consistent and non-deterministic if you write them that way. Sure, shell scripts being turing-complete opens the door to a lot of nonsense if people go wild and gives more latitude for very sloppy code but it doesn't have to be that way.

>the people who sit down and actually write the code we all use find the services systemd provides valuable

Systemd has been pushed down everybody's throat for a while now, saying retroactively that people use it because they find it valuable is a bit of a stretch. I'm sure many of them use it because that's what's available. I wrote a bunch of systemd unit files myself, I assure you that it wasn't meant as an endorsement.

Besides it's only one side of the equation. Maybe it's nicer for the people writing the unit files, doesn't mean that it's a good thing for people actually having to use them. I'm sure many software maintainers would prefer if everybody ran the same OS on the same hardware with the same use cases but that's not how the real world works.

Abusive. That I understand. Asshole--what does that even mean. Even the author isn't consistent:

> "But it’s also largely bullshit.
Now, to be clear, I don’t know if any of the above people were or are truly assholes, nor does it really matter. People are complicated. We’re all assholes sometimes. But it’s the connection that is often drawn — notably in the clip by Jordan himself — to the idea that being a jerk is necessary to achieve greatness."

It's all bullshit.

I don't know if it's true.

It doesn't matter.

Everyone has an asshole.

Life is complicated.

Jordan is now a jerk.

For the past four years people have been saying it's a waste of time to argue with the president on his terms. And here is an article trying to make sense of profane language--and failing. It's not good journalism or blogging.

I can tell you've never released a popular product on Linux. It's a lottttt more effort than you're implying. To do it well, you need to have Linux as a target from the start of your development, it's not something you can tack on to the end. Linux graphics drivers are very different from Windows (the AMD stack isn't even the same codebase). Linux window managers are... wild. You need to build to an ABI that will be supported across distros, which mostly means the Steam Runtime, which means you need to go learn about and understand that. You can't introduce any platform assumptions ("ehh, I'll just hardcode this path with a backslash... oops"). Once you release, you're talking support for dozens of different distros, different versions of distros, different package managers, different filesystems. I know what you're going to say: "Just support Ubuntu LTS and ignore everyone else". Well, now you've just cut your customer base by at least 75%[1], and your customers on other distros are going to demand support anyway. Do you tell a paying customer to F-off because they're not using a distro with only ~20% of the market?

Supporting Linux is hard. So is supporting Windows, but if Windows makes up 98% of your customer base, it's justified. 2%? Ehhhhh.

(P.S. I love Linux. See my profile. This is the kind of stuff I deal with every single day.)

> I don’t think azure is relevant here. Standardizing SR-IOV would be much more helpful to everybody (but much more important to Azure/cloud platforms).

Meanwhile today, Nvidia and AMD GPUs don't support SR-IOV. So that's a non-starter. It's also not clear that it the right model for GPUs either, as they have their own MMUs already.

> Kvm setups can already pass through gpus just fine.

But you need to dedicate that GPU to the guest and the host can't use it anymore.

>> > There is a single usecase for this: WSL2 developer who wants to run machine learning on his GPU. The developer is working on his laptop, which is running Windows and that laptop has a single GPU that Windows is using

From the current patch set, because they haven't hooked up the swap chains yet (as they've said that they're doing) which would allow full graphics support in the guest.

UBI isn't going to be a fat allowance to fund a comfortable life of leisure. It's going to cover subsistence level costs only. Many, many people work second jobs in order to be more comfortable. I don't think it's far-fetched to expect that most people would work a first job.
It did the follow up sodoku (a new miracle sodoku), which I think probably is a bit easier as it starts with 3,4 in a slightly more useful constellation.

And the cracking the cryptic channel has quite a bunch of such sudokus.
Frankly, I don't see what's so funny.

> If that's not smug self-satisfaction, I don't know what is. No consideration that there were reasons they implemented their system in a different way.

Of course there was consideration. The history surrounding this is well documented. People familiar with the relevant concepts raised the problems with the JS Promise API early on, but were dismissed.

Which is also beside the point, because generalizing from N=1 is silly. If I'm being generous, you pointed out one smug Haskeller, where you claimed that the entire community was smug.

> If I lived in a world with only ten languages, I might agree I was punishing myself more than them. But I will never learn every language, tool, technique or skill I want to, so why would I ever start here?

Allow me to rephrase with an analogy to illustrate: I can easily solve 90% of my problems perfectly well with just integers, reals and complex numbers, so why would I ever learn general vector or matrix math?

Certainly that's your perogative, but I hope you'll agree that you're ignoring a powerful tool that would subsume all of your previous understanding of these abstractions, and which would let you solve those same problems, and more, better.
So you've written (of course type safe) generic code that was in principle able to achieve the same effect as described in https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9032856/what-is-the-expl... ? ;-)

IMHO Linux on IBM Z cannot exploit its hardware capabilities as well as z/OS can. I think that's pretty much the reason to go with z/OS (aside from the existence of legacy applications).
Personally I would argue that regular TV has largely died both because better alternatives have come along but also because of ads. Last time I tried watching a movie on the telly, there were nearly more ads than actual content. That alone may not have been the reason for younger generations migrating away from it, but I'm sure it played a big part.
> I tend to find that on a clean install pretty much every Windows machine I have encountered operates smoothly.

This is by construction. A major brand like Dell would not release a computer that does not work with the pre-installed operating system.

That means that Linux is more likely to have problems (especially driver issues) on any random computer you install it on. For the most part, things have gotten a lot better over time, but it's not 100% (especially with newer hardware that might not yet be supported by the kernel). Without the same level of adoption of Linux as Windows has, I doubt Linux will ever get to the same level of out-of-the-box functionality as Windows, simply because nobody is ensuring that it works on every computer that is sold.

That's an option that requires some tech savviness. The choice architecture of Android heavily favours Play Store, so it's deflecting the issue to say it's not a form of censorship because there's a workaround.
The Chinese government asserts that it has the legal right to control the Internet's content within their territory and that their censorship rules do not infringe on the citizen's right to free speech. Since Xi Jinping became the General Secretary of the Communist Party of China (de facto paramount leader) in 2012, censorship has been "significantly stepped up".

...

Reporters Without Borders ranks China's press situation as "very serious", the worst ranking on their five-point scale. In August 2012, the OpenNet Initiative classified Internet censorship in China as "pervasive" in the political and conflict/security areas and "substantial" in the social and Internet tools areas, the two most extensive classifications of the five they use

I think there's a place for FB Shops, mostly with "small-small" businesses, think "kiosks in the middle of the mall" or "plastic two-colour sign stapled to electrical poles" type of small, but any reasonable business that cares about it's brand and wants to maintain control over itself would still likely be attracted to a more flexible and powerful platform like Shopify..

You give up a lot of control when you use FB, they control branding, UI, UX, etc.. if you don't care about those things and you just want to sell stuff, that's probably fine..

I say this of course without knowing what the future holds for FB Shops..

Facebook is basically already the shopping mall food court and bus stop, they're just adding the stores now I guess..

Indeed, you are correct. Spectral efficiency is, essentially, how "well" those 5 kHz are being used. It doesn't have anything to do with the center frequency (500 kHz in this example).
Facebook has network effects: you use it because all of your friends are using it, making a cost of switching high. In the ride sharing business however, there is zero consumer loyalty - installing a new app in your phone takes one minute. Riders can have multiple apps and order ride in the one that offers best prices, and all the drivers will probably be using multiple apps already.

Also: you don't need to have "the best app in the market", just a reasonably good one. Advertising cost is more of the issue, but you can do that by starting in one local market, get some market share and use it to attract more VC capital.

Benefits of Running in the Morning
Investors have a clear interest in turning their companies into monopolies and supporting anti-competitive behaviour. As long as they are allowed to create unfair advantages by distorting market conditions they will. Those that play by the rules have the odds stacked against them and will loose unless the rules of the game itself change.

The fact that there isn't a level playing field is becoming more obvious and I think the backlash against "big tech" is an inevitable result. This will result in either a reform of antitrust laws or a code of ethics being subscribed to by all the big players.
