Your setup seems quite good for sure as well! It'll definitely be cheaper than going with EB - once you include the load balancer as well, which you probably need if you don't want a single instance managing all your traffic. However you gain ddos protection and fully automatic scaling for 12 bucks a month.

The biggest benefit for me is that you are not tied to a single EC2 instance anymore. theoretically this is a moot pain point - in my work we have EC2 instances with uptimes going to four years now. I assume AWS aims for even better stability with lightsail (or not? Can't remember what the SLA for lightsail is). But EB or appengine is definitely the bare minimum of what you need to truly consider yourself cloud native and given the small increase in investment it might be worth it.

How does your traffic scale? Does it peak during work hours? You could potentially setup EB with a small instance that scales up to 2-3 instances just during work hours, with just a few toggles. Also, if you at least estimate having this service for a year, you can prepay and reserve the instance which is again a huge discount.

More importantly, I think the productivity gains you see going into continuous deployment is amazing. Getting a deploy by just merging your PR to master is surreal for sure, and makes it a breeze to just work on your features instead of infra! Often if I'm lazy and want to refresh some environment state I'll jusr kill the EC2 instance with the confidence that EB will scale a new one up!

It's a stupid title. Connecting the concept to a movie was unnecessary.

But it's not any more sexist than making a movie called (and about) Mean Girls in the first place...
Thing is, at their heart, these are document editing tools. They don't actually need an on ongoing operational cost (yes, maintenance, but as a number of people point out you can take the jet brains approach and lock to versions).

The supposed benefit of my data being hosted is not a benefit to everyone. I already have multiple solutions to backup and sharing, I don't need another silo where my data lives. I don't need another vendor hosting arbitrary data which means I now can't use the product because the megacorp I work for won't let that through their legal.

Key point I was making above was that one off payment is an option and can be successful, we don't need to fall straight into the free vs subscription dichotomy.

Oh, you didn't do it in java. The mere boilerplate and heaviness of the language makes it Observable hell. Well, it got improved with lambdas the last time I used it, but it's still a clusterfuck of Observables, Singles, wrappers and knee-deep stacktraces. JS allows you a lot more flexibility as a language and it is a far better experience using RxJs.
Thanks,have not seen this ever before
No such stereotype says only women are mean.
Dropbox (or any of the other syncing apps) as a syncing mechanism for other stuff is underrated IMO. I personally have notes, password manager database and a budget app database synced between devices and the amount of value I've derived from having everything automatically sync between devices is huge.

I wish more apps would take the wide availability of "magic syncing folders" into account when designing their data storage. (I know many VC funded apps would prefer to keep the data in house so it can be monetized, but there is less excuse for open source tools)

If you need real-time both-ways communication in the browser you could look at Comet-Stream (since IE7 is now in all practical senses gone). It's simpler, consistent and scales like a monster on the server:

The only thing that is annoying in the browser is that Chrome does not allow you to remove or change the User-Agent header which wastes a little bandwidth.
With block storage (a disk), you are going to need some compute capability to host it. Presumably with S3 you don't need that (I know you can do this with Azure Blob Storage, hosting static content directly; assume it's the same with AWS)

Right. This is a valid URI, which Invoke-RestMethod uses as a parameter name (-Uri) and which is a unique id for a resource and not its location (it could be, but not in this particular case). They should not have call that argument “URI”, if what they actually do is fetching from a URL.

As for CoC: I believe it's more of a signalling act than a reaction to past issues. Just like the KKK would add "no race mixing" to the rules, a left wing open source project needs to signal to their in group, and their main way of doing that is to say "no harassment based on [some criteria]".

Old, white and male — we are probably both plenty entitled. But life is generally favorable to us, so we are often better off listening to those actually affected by this.

I think it's a pop culture reference Andi don't think it is sexist.
There's no universal 'common law'. Each jurisdiction has its own, diverged "branch" of common-law, each with its own peculiarities.

Primarily, based upon its history.

And as the legislative branch passes laws, they effect the power of, modify the scope of, or render inert many such judicial decisions.

This is why I said "many common law jurisdictions', not just 'common law'.

One vital part of common law, is intent.

A door with a lock on it? And you pick it / disable it? It is going to be exceptionally difficult to prove benign intent here.

An unlocked door? Well...

Are your friends 'breaking and entering' by opening the door and walking in? Again, intent here...

Did you knock, and "thought you heard something"? Again, intent.

There have been many court cases, but as an example, for a while, in Ontario, Canada, it was common for police to knock at the door, and simply enter saying "Oh, I knocked.. but no one heard me."

I kid you not.

But let's take a step back here, and give you an example as to why this becomes more difficult with an unlocked door.

Part of the issue here is, many houses have a covered, 'cold room' prior to the house proper. Yet, this is still part of the house. It has a roof and walls, a door. It is simply part of the house.

In many colder climates, you enter this area. This is fully expected. You're now sheltered, but it isn't heated. When the owner opens the "door proper", blowing snow and wind won't enter their house. Ergo, to knock, you must approach the "real door" of the house, inside this room, and knock.

It is also not immediately clear if the "very outside door" you are accessing, is a cold room, or the actual door of the house. How do you discover one way or the other? Why you open the door, and enter!

Intent is primary here. Entry into an unlocked house does not prove intent, as there is no 'forced entry'.

One thing ; in Canada, the police lay charges. A person need not even make a complaint, for the police to act. Nor does a person insisting that the police not charge someone, indicate this will happen! An example here ; the police discover assault of some form. They only need evidence, not willingness to 'charge'.

Now take this legal position, and assign it to people entering houses. Your friend enters your house, as he always does, without even knocking.

According to you, that's 'break and enter', yes? What differentiates here?

Why, intent of course!

Intent is primary, and a locked door creates a very strong validation of intent. An unlocked? Zero validation.

Just because you’re “old, white and male” doesn’t mean you’re not allowed to have an opinion. Don’t let anybody make you feel like that.
I don’t understand what you are saying, how is simply gathering data of the state of the world a problem?

Science is based on assessing data and creating hypothesis based on that data. Racial statistics is just another vector to assess our society. You would expect that race would not be a factor and thus be evenly distributed across professions/positions of power in a country. When you look at the data and see that is not the case, why not try to look at the factors that account for that discrepancy? Just because the variable we looked at is race doesn’t mean racism is the cause but you can’t even assess whether it is without the data first.

Why should we allow statistics to be gathered on the basis of religion or gender?

Now I’m curious, in French law, are racial statistics banned for research in medical outcomes or disease?

Im glad someone is standing up to protect those poor billionaires and racist cops. Because maybe they get hurt when they read someone online saying they actively hurt the world by existing! And as we all know, being a billionaire with hurt feeling is just as worse as being murdered by racist cops, or dying because a billionaire didn't want to pay taxes so he lobbied to lower taxes, causing public services to disappear!
Sounds like they are saying that you can have an S3 equivalent and DNS services without being on AWS. Which is true and most of the time less expensive.

> If anyone knows how to control floating point rounding in C reliably, I'd be interesting in hearing it

I skimmed over that code and it seems that hack is required because a) you're not happy with what the compiler does with a double b) insisting on using a "double" type.

It's easy to get your own semantics for numbers in C, it's not easy to do so while insisting on using C's own types whose behavior are contrary to what you want.

If you want your own floating point semantics why not make a struct with a significand & base and pass that around? Something like that is how established numbers-in-C-without-native-C-semantics libraries do it, e.g. GMP.

Maybe I am a bit over-protective and extrapolate too much, but here is what research says:

"Davies et al. (2002) showed that women experience stereotype threat when they are reminded of existing stereotypes about women in television advertising. In this study, participants watched commercials in which women were very excited about buying cosmetic products or trying a new baking recipe. After watching these commercials, women performed worse on a math test compared with men who watched the same commercials and compared with women who watched gender-neutral commercials."

I'm actually a paying roam customer btw. I'm definitely going to evaluate it for a few months before deciding if it's worth it or not. I'm just not sure too many others will.

That was my biggest surprise when I recently looked at Wordpress.

It sounds like the hard part is just meeting enough people to consider yourself qualified. A third of the work in freelancing is marketing, another third is research and/or selling off prototypes at a loss. For example, it's costly to figure out how to make an app with Google+ sign in, but it's easy to do the second time.

It could be possible to start cheap, by letting experienced developers outsource that kind of work to you for something like $10/hour. You can also look for Fiverr style stuff like assembling a Wordpress site or writing tests.
Hosting a static website using S3 can be done dirt-cheap. We were hosting our website on S3 for a while now, with a monthly bill of 1,20€ with CloudFlare CDN in front of our bucket. Another big plus is that you do not have to worry about server administration, load balancers etc.
