Compare with media files. Music and movies don't expire. The most common audio and video formats will probably be supported forever. (Perhaps there are exceptions for obscure codecs?)

It seems like this could be done for at least some games, but defining a virtual machine and binary format that's both good enough that game developers will want to use it, and at the same time stable enough that it lasts forever, seems like a challenge? Also, it needs to be non-networked, or it will stop working when the server goes down.

This was done a long time ago for interactive fiction, but doing it for modern mobile games seems like a challenge. WebAssembly should probably be involved, but the user interface will need a huge API surface that's also stable.
I like the way you stated this. Just as the right technical solution is contextual, so are the leadership requirements.

I will say that a CTO of a large company has to have a really good read on the technical constraints. Whether this is achieved through technical expertise, or having a warchest of talented lieutenants is an implementation detail. That said, even the lieutenants can't be in every room, and if the company faces substantial technical challenges, there is a high risk that a non-technical CTO makes commitments the team can't live up to.

In a well-functioning team, a lot of this can be papered over by the lower-level folks (managers and ICs) finding a way to do the right thing on an unofficial basis. I would go so far as to say that all successful companies depend on that unofficial network of clueful employees doing the right thing in spite of formal guidance. But at some point leadership is going to have to make some decisions, and when that time comes you better hope they have put at least as many hours into their relative domain competence as they have into schmoozing big wigs.

I definitely agree that there’s less magic going on with a traditional style deployment, but I think you’re strawmanning Next a bit with this comment. Not everyone uses graphql, and a vanilla Next API route is similar in complexity to a vanilla node http server.

For a basic CRUD app, especially for a solo dev, the monitoring story on Vercel is sufficient and it’s hard to say that their single repo push to deploy setup is more complex than the traditional alternatives.

Congratulations for becoming a CTO but also it terrifies me to think that my CTO is terrified of his/her work. Of course as IC I will never know this but I just don’t get it. I feel like CTOs has been in management jobs at some point before becoming part of the Cs. I feel like in your narration you went from IC to CTO directly. I may be wrong.

I think the real distinction I’m unsure about is if the problem is the earth finding a new equilibrium point potentially on the order of hundreds to thousands of years or if the problem is we’re overall making the earth worse at supporting human life. I’d guess a mix of both, but certainly the adjustment as areas that once had a consistent climate x move to a different climate y is pretty bad by itself

The alternative is to have the browser delete persistent cookies on a per-site basis, or to always open a new “private mode” tab, but that is a lot less convenient to handle for the user.
If your org is 10 moving to 50 in a few months then you have a BIG change ahead. The good news is that you are responsible for how your team operates. You've identified problems, and now you get to fix them - not by coding, but through leadership & culture. This isn't to say it's easy, it's a massive challenge, but it is yours to solve and does require technical knowledge and skill.

No first time CTO's had it figured out either - continue to show the courage to ask advice (as you've done here) and figure it out bit by bit. Nobody has made your org before - there's no playbook only prior work.

The flip side is if that is of zero interest, you're likely in the wrong role. No shame, depends what motivates you.
Reads are easy to cache at various layers (query cache, application, web, etc). Inserts and updates must go to the database.

So even a read-heavy application could have more writes than reads due to caching.
What Apple actually stated is the policy is for "discoverability of apps" for "the majority of users". Clearly the intention stated is to remove old, unpopular, outdated, crappy apps from the App store.

So when you ask but why are popular apps exempt? - well, they already told you exactly why, because they're popular. People still want the app.

I feel like the actual reason you're against this policy is left unstated.

I'm guessing that they're betting that they can put X idle customers on one machine, and so pay X/machine cost for their free tier.

A while ago, I worked for a company that offered a hosted version of their application that required Postgres, etcd, Kubernetes, etc. It was set up so that every customer got their own GCP project, containing a K8s cluster, Cloud Storage, and a Postgres instance, The k8s cluster ("workspace") then contained dedicated nodes (4vCPU x 16G RAM at a minimum, autoscaling up according to their workload including GPU compute), SSDs, a public-facing LoadBalancer, etc. This is good for per-customer isolation, but quite costly at idle, on the order of several hundred dollars a month. Users expect this kind of isolation (but need the SOC2 and similar checkmark for sure), but they don't expect to be charged when they're not running anything, which was a problem for us.

If I was doing this again, I would do it this way, at least for the MVP. One option is to make the application multi-tenant aware, and isolate at the application level instead of at the GCP project level. This might be more difficult to get certified and might not meet everyone's HIPAA-like compliance goals, but is a good starting point, especially for free trials.

The other option that was very appealing to me is to give each user a VM that just gets de-scheduled when no requests are being made. Instead of k8s managing nodes, nodes would manage k8s. The downside there is that cluster size is limited to whatever the largest node you can buy is, but honestly, 448vCPUs is a ton (AWS's max instance size at the moment), so it's a very workable solution. When users sign up, create a VM image that runs K8s, Minio, Postgres, etc. and route traffic to it with a shared L7 router/front proxy. If their workloads autoscale up, freeze and migrate the VM to a machine with more resources. If they're not using it for a while, freeze it completely, and reprogram your front proxy to point at a program that waits for an RPC / web request and starts up the VM when one comes in. Now your idle cost is the cost of your block storage, modulo deduplication, instead of dedicated CPU cores and RAM. You also get a lot of knobs to control your actual compute cost; you aren't reliant on your users provisioning spot instances from their cloud provider, you can just tell cron jobs to run when CPU load is lowest, or set your own rate to incentive off-peak usage. And, you can pretty much get away with charging nothing for idle instances, limit free trials in aggregate to X CPU cores, etc. I think it would have been good, though complex.

TL;DR: RDS is a highly-available always-on service. But customers might not want HA or always-on. By being able to turn off the database at the right moment, you can save a lot of money on compute, which makes things like good free trials more economically viable. I think OP is on the right track to a successful k8s-based business and wish them great luck!

I think what happens is some engineers invest so much of their professional identity in their Docker/K8s/Jenkins/AWS lifestyle that anything less is seen as dirty or inferior. The irony is that many of them are too young to remember the rationale for these tools when they were released, namely the management of massive fleets of servers by huge corporations.

The engine scores centipawn loss against the perfect move (according to the engine). The engine plays the move with the lowest centipawn loss itself. How are those two different?
> VMs are simply more isolated than containers.

This doesn't mean anything - it is just a cliché.

> VM isolation happens in hardware -- the processor, and is supported by the processor

This is also meaningless, or at least doesn't mean what you think it does. Container isolation also happens "in hardware", in the sense that both are facilitated by e.g. features in the MMU. VMs may or may not take advantage of some additional hardware features (e.g. hardware-assisted HBA virtualization), but most of these do not necessarily provide any security benefit, and in many cases expose additional attack surface area that would not be accessible from inside a container.

The only difference from a security standpoint is which APIs are exposed to processes running inside the guest environment. Both VMs (with practical peripherals) and containers have access to scary stuff running in kernel mode. It's mostly a disjoint set of stuff, and it's not clear to me which set is actually preferable from a security standpoint.

To repeat what was said above, accuracy is not the same as engine correlation.

Engines often play moves that are counterintuitive and weird, but nonetheless good. This is because they can evaluate large trees of tactics in a way that humans cannot.

If a human finds a natural move that is just as good as the engine move (in terms of evaluation), they are still playing accurately, but they are uncorrelated with the engine. Playing accurately is not a sign of cheating. Playing many engine moves is a sign of cheating.

You're not thinking long-tail enough. Once a service reaches a certain size you have to deal with every single kind of failure.

* User forgot their password.

* User's authentication token was eaten by an alligator.

* User's phone fell down a well.

* User's phone broke and they got a new number from their carrier.

* User's phone, laptop, and hardware token were lost by an airline.

* User's phone and backup codes were simultaneously lost in a fire.

* For Google specifically, user lost access to their email and didn't have a recovery set up.

If you can reasonably authenticate them using any means you probably should let them because every time you have to fall back to human customer support it's $$$. Remembering a password is one of the few things that's resistant to life's bullshit but it's also incredibly insecure so this is the compromise.

I don't know if there's a video of GM's analyzing engine's moves, mostly because I think that's literally what the engine is for. And I don't think they can understand every move, which just goes to show how strong engines are. It's like alien tech strong.

> How does changing the scale make anything more or less performant?

As the article shows, in application code we are multiplying by 2 pi, and the very first step in the optimized assembly is to divide by 2 pi. Therefore changing the scale to what both sides want saves 2 operations.

And why would the optimized version want that division? It is because the next step is to reduce down to a fixed range, then use a lookup table.
