You're new to Azure I guess.

I'm glad the outage I had yesterday was only the third major one this year, though the one in august made me lose days of traffic, months of back and forth with their support, and a good chunk of my sanity and patience in face of blatant documented lies and general incompetence.

One consumer-grade fiber link is enough to serve my company's traffic and with two months of what we pay MS for their barely working cloud I could buy enough hardware to host our product for a year of two of sustained growth.
Ah, bummer. If it helps, you can try this to list out VM sizes with comparable capabilities and see if you have better luck with any others (--all not really necessary since it filters by NotAvailableForSubscription and similar):

az vm list-skus -l germanynorth -r virtualMachines --all > germanynorth.json
jq '.[] | select( any( .capabilities[]; (.name == "vCPUs" and (.value | tonumber) >= 4 )) and any(.capabilities[]; (.name == "MemoryGB" and ( .value | tonumber ) >= 32) ) )' germanynorth.json

4/32 because that's what E4s_v4 would have.
I've found they're also far more likely to be absentee, and far more likely to discriminate on the basis of whoever happened to burn them in the past. They're also more volatile -- many are new to landlording and if it's not working out and they get a good offer they'll just sell meaning you've got to move.
While ostensibly about the ambitions and aspirations of a K-Pop legend, this article resonated with me because I’ve spoken to a lot of people in the software world that have similarly tried for a decade or more to recreate the success and magic of once going viral, and their concerns about being a so-called “one-hit wonder.”

Changing the 'birth' date of a Twitter account to anything less than 13 years old results in the account be immediately locked without warning and without a mechanism to reset.
This is obviously an age consent control but the undo has disappeared.

Lots of posts complaining about this to the Twitter support account. Especially problematic for a brand or organization account younger than 13 years. Ironically @twittersupport was born in March 2021, so they seem to have slipped themselves through the net!
Emacs Lisp has an entire manual, and it's even included in emacs.

https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/elisp.html

Here is a list of sequence functions (lists are sequences): https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Se....

As I said in another discussion the other day, no language can be fully intuited. That's why we have documentation and training material. Emacs Lisp has pretty good documentation which is searchable from within the environment it's meant to be used in, and can be obtained online.
Armamentarium is a the word of the day for me.
People have always known. But what are their options? Short of a revolution, people don’t really have the power or resources to make the necessary changes. Even after a revolution, you probably end up with the same issue: a pyramid-like power structure with similar levels of inequality, just different people in power.
Easy come, easy go. There was nothing special about tech that led to the meteoric rise in market cap in the first place. It was all speculation with easy money.
This is terrible. I'm going to start looking into alternatives, which is shame, because we initially built around the Stripe API.

We recently had one customer forget to cancel their subscription, and then without contacting us first they filed a dispute for 6 months of charges. That's 6 individual disputes, each with a $15 ($90) dispute fee. We got in touch and mentioned we'd have investigated, found the license unused, and refunded for those months. They contacted their bank to withdraw, but the bank and Stripe are just pushing ahead.

How many engineers already have a bio phd. Who on earth is this actually written for.
Once upon a time, it was like a breath of fresh air. Originally pitched as a dev-first payment API, it was vastly easier to get up and running than other options at the time. In recent years it has suffered under the weight of its own success. The simplicity and ease of use it once promised has been buried beneath a now-bloated and obtuse API. The user interface has struggled to keep up with the feature creep and it too has become a challenge to navigate and interact with. The documentation, once considered an industry-leading example of how to write and present such things, has mutated into a frustrating byzantine mess that's riddled with contradictions and obvious omissions.

As an early adopter and someone that was once very fond of this company and its approach to things, I'm disappointed to see the direction it has gone.

> the low level of funding the IRS has had for modernization

The IRS has been trying to modernize for decades.

Here's something from way back in the Clinton admin:

But you'll never hear anyone there actually be responsible for the failures. They'll always whine about needing even more money.
It was just that we weren't using Rundeck very effectively. I set it up so that others could run a few Ansible jobs, and so that a slack bot could fire off one of those jobs. The Slack API changed a few years later and our old bot completely broke and I couldn't get it working again without rewriting. As far as other people running them, nobody else seemed to use it. So when it came time to upgrade the EOL OS that was hosting Rundeck, I just shut it down.

But, now we have some Jenkins jobs that would benefit from being isolated from Ansible runs, so Rundeck might be a good way to run those.
I think you’re being unnecessarily hard on Google.

When someone dials 911, there is a ton of context data that needs to be collected, analyzed, and added to Google’s profile of the user to ensure the most relevant ads can be served in the future.

There’s location data, whether the user is driving, connected Bluetooth accessories, other phones in close proximity. All of this needs cutting edge ML processing so the user model can be updated with e.g. “likely domestic violence victim, recommend self defense courses” to improve the user experience the next time they search for a pie recipe.

Given the heavy lift of this advanced algorithmic processing, it’s inevitable that some minor bugs will creep in to ancillary functions like connecting the user’s phone call to emergency services. Even when that happens, it’s still a >95% success for the scenario.

Banks are so strange. They always bother me of "needness" to remember: password, PIN, code word, where is my electronic key, password to electronic key, and where is my phone with requirement of having it. Also they love to have some nasty rules for creating a password like having no less than 4 digits but not sparce. Banks mean so much for peoples nowadays, and they use to behave like a jerks. That's why I am ready for walking in great lengths for keep not having any active bank account.
I don't see how it has any impact on kernel development.
Windows doesn’t officially support Vulkan. It’s exposed by third party drivers, but isn’t the official API (and was indeed limited in use for a while). One could argue that it’s moot though but there are ramifications.

PlayStation supports GNM not Vulkan.

Afaik the switch is the only recent console to support Vulkan but it’s not preferred, instead using the NVN api. Not counting the SteamDeck since it’s a general purpose computer.
That is precisely what I mentioned in my first post. Activating the customer and getting them to value is the biggest challenge these frameworks have. It is hard to buy into a framework from get go.
Apple was focused on efficiency (phones), Intel/AMD's focus was raw compute (servers).

It's not in depth, but it's 99% of the why. The M1 is just a bigger, reworked A15.

That makes sense for cards but if most of the payments are SEPA transfers, then it doesn't make that much sense since there's no chargebacks for SEPA transfers.

Maybe the issue is a fraud system designed for cards that's not well thought out for other forms of payments.
what is the point of your linked article?
iPad WHEN?
I think better type systems, like the one in Typescript have made mainstream the use of types to remove some basic bugs. This makes some basic tests not needed anymore, and gives more time to focus on the important ones.
No, it does not provide an answer. What does that have to do with analyzing a finite-state machine in EXPTIME-complete time?

The busy beaver problem, again, assumes it is running on a Turing machine with infinite memory.

Don't confuse a program defined using a finite number of states with a machine that can only have a finite number of states. It's just another example of the points I'm making about how a theoretical mathematical problem is an interesting curiosity and might even be an interesting problem to solve but it does not necessarily apply to the real world. And how everyone seems to think that this mathematical problem applies to programs running in real-world computers.

Someone else mentioned the busy beaver problem and I've given a more complete answer there:

I feel like at this point you can no longer afford to generalize about the market this way if you're a game developer or publisher. The gaming industry is so big and so incredibly over-saturated with games that it is better to evaluate the market for your game, individually, rather than gaming as a whole.

For example, games like Factorio are incredibly niche and loved by people with builder/engineer mindsets (not necessarily working as engineers). Now you've got to ask yourself whether potential Factorio players are more or less likely to own a Mac, compared to the 3% (cited by another commenter) of all Steam users on Macs.

Also I wonder how this 3% figure was calculated. Is it based on monthly active users? I am a Mac user and I have Steam installed but I don't leave it running all the time because application itself is a dumpster-fire battery hog. I only start it up when I want to play a specific game, then I shut it down. Some games don't even require Steam to be running so I launch them directly without bothering to start Steam. Am I excluded from the monthly active users because I might go months without launching Steam, despite playing games regularly?
Hehe, actually, i intentionally use the "useful software", instead of perfect, good design, scalable,... software. If you skip that details, all furthur logic will be in wrong context.
Most of reviews are also entirely false and botted.

You're right to be cynical.

I have had 'continuously running' software system in house as old as they reference. From first hand experience, I'd imagine it's not something folks are crowing about.

Your reference is older than what I had in house.
Most of Europe expects the winter to be quite painful from a power perspective. It would not be surprising if cloud providers (major power users) are being asked to not increase (or even decrease) power usage.

The timeframe they gave would match that kind of ask.

I wonder whether you see the same behavior from other cloud providers there (ie if you ask them whether new capacity is available, what do they say)

If you control both ends, no big deal. If you're just working out some protocol, no big deal. I love simple toy solutions to problems, especially when understanding the problem space. But this is going to fall apart under any sort of pressure.

I need big m4n instances with 100gbe for product demos, and spinning them up lately is like trying to get Taylor Swift tickets on Ticketmaster. We end up wasting money running them for days at a time instead of on demand because we’re afraid of losing them.

It’s infuriating that AWS doesn’t have an API that returns a list of AZs with available inventory for a given instance type.
Interesting is that you can get instances in dev/test subscriptions without any trouble.
This Month in Physics History – Invention of the First Transistor (2000)
Indeed. I can't comment on gas prices (it would be immoral to raise prices artificially to exploit those in need, if that were the case), but where weapons are concerned, all things remaining the same, it is cheaper for everyone to give Ukraine weapons for free than having NATO enter the war, which would, by all reasonable accounts, be catastrophic. The notion that US corporations are profiting from selling weapons is so preposterously boneheaded. OBVIOUSLY, if there's a war, governments will buy weapons from defense companies, and therefore OBVIOUSLY, these corporations will make profits. The US didn't start this war, much less to profit from it, even if it shares in the responsibility of giving Russia all sorts of incentives to do so.

What I think is that this "moralizing" reflects a general fear of Western Europe's plummeting position in Europe and the loss of American favor. Their true colors and interests (including those involving Russia) have been exposed, and they don't like the geopolitical shift of power eastward toward the center (one which will, as it had historically for centuries, act to stabilize Europe). The war is merely hastening their decline, so they're grasping at straws and whining.
Unchecked aggression tends to lead to more aggression if you just glance at history.
Nazi Germany, Imperial Japan, Spanish invading the Americas, US pushing out the Natives, Roman Empire into Europe, Genghis Khan.
It stands to reason that if there was an equal or greater opposing force for the acts of aggression and expansion all throughout history, the rate of expansion would be severely limited.
I don’t know much about the Crusades but that seems like a candidate for a stronger force stopping a weaker force from invading parts of the Middle East.

This is not a new idea -- it's a whole field of infrastructure called "Payments Orchestration". It probably doesn't make sense for small startups, but companies that process more than about $10M+ USD per year can (and do) definitely benefit from multiplexing transactions across multiple providers.
Some problems can't be fixed (eg. chip supply chain problems) even if you have more money.
It is indeed a reimplementation of jq in go, and the reason I use it over jq is many, one of which is that it produces more helpful error messages. In fact, I've moved jq to ojq (sometimes I want to check compatibility), and ln -fs gojq jq.
I'd avoid Intel entirely if heat/power efficiency matter to you at all. AMD has had acceptable performance with far better heat/power use across the board for a few years now.
"best interest" doesn't inherently mean "decision with no difficulties whatsoever". Moving away from Russian energy, even if it's painful in the interim, is in Germany's best interests.
Games are a hobby. Hobby's utilize time. No different than reading a book, building a chair, gardening, etc...
...which is why no comment looks so bad, because those are easy things that extremely should be happening. (Though "highest" priority shouldn't be taken so specifically.)

No comment is the worst way to avoid that risk, and should be looked down upon.
For stability testing I like y-cruncher. It teases out edge cases that many XMP profiles are unstable with. I'd take a slightly less efficient system that I am confident will not error.

Also, those numbers aren't far off the out-of-box behavior I had, but I like to tinker. I throttle with PL set to 190 but not at 180.
saying "Windows does not officially support Vulkan" is a completely blatant cope by maclovers, nvidia and amd, the people that make the cards support it, and windows "supports" their cards, so let's stop being dishonest.

"Vulkan is not an industry standard" I mean yeah, in the same way Microsoft word is not an standard.

"except Switch, but it is so slow" again that seems to be a lie, doom eternal orks way, way better on it than it would be on similar software on a different API.
The judge ruling is kind of a stretch of that law. Because it was first conceived to avoid forcing consumers to buy 2 items together (if you don't buy X I can't sell you Y), or putting quantity limitations (you can only buy 4 or more of X, otherwise I won't sell to you).
Of course you can do promo combos (3 for the price of 2) but that shouldn't be the only option, the consumer needs to be able to buy the standalone product.
Except they have stopped. Overwatch is not for Mac, and Diablo 4 isn't coming to Mac either.
It's stupid because the justifications Russia has named for its "special military operation" could easily apply to many other neighboring countries, including NATO members.

The best course of action would probably have been trying to bring Russia into NATO in the 1990s or very early 2000s, but that ship has long sailed. In order to stop Russian expansionism we either need Russia to wear itself out to the point of declaring the war in Ukraine over in order to cut their losses, or to directly attack Russia and force it to surrender. Given the existence of nuclear weapons, I'm sure you agree the latter option is off the table.

I'm not a fan of NATO and I don't like the US military. My country has historically been an economic ally to Russia and is not at direct risk of invasion if Russia were to take Ukraine and insist on expanding beyond that. But in this conflict, we need to have Ukraine's back. You can say this is a proxy war between Russia and NATO or the EU, but then it has always been one and a Russian victory would mean a defeat for all of NATO and the EU.
I don't believe a lot of the tech companies valuations are based in reality. I think it is mostly based on hype of exponential growth, when really companies are hitting a plateau in terms of value added to people's lives. It seemed like a huge opportunity for investors back when the companies were focused on growth and provided their services/products for free. But now as the companies need to adjust their focus to profitability, it turns out that a lot of companies can't be profitable unless they start charging subscriptions and filling user's feeds with advertisements, which is inevitably going to drive user engagement levels down to a more realistic level.
People do not need to be productive 100% of the time. Let people have fun without shaming them. Just think of how far science and technology has come in the last decade.
At one point even intel macs broke compatibility with every game that was 3 years old or something stupid like that. I remember that my working game simply refused to execute after a macos version upgrade. Exact same machine, refusing to run my software overnight.

This kind of attitude just isn't conducive for gaming, where people like to build libraries in steam and expect everything to keep working for a long time.

On my PC, I can fire up games from 20 years ago and they work perfectly. Witcher 3, a 7 year old game, is getting an overhaul. I expect no problems in downloading it on steam from my library and playing it seamlessly on my relatively new PC.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Another perspective is that the connection of an IP to specific content or individuals was a bug of the Internet’s original design and thankfully we’re finally finding ways to disassociate them.
Or rather, get a contract with your cloud provider and payment processor that clearly lays out the terms under which they will and won't suspend you.

My previous company had a business contract with GCP and so wouldn't be cut off for, for example, a dodgy employee account tied to the business in some way.

It's amazing how many people put their email and credit card in a form, pay sticker price for a service, and have their entire business depend on it. The terms of those contracts necessarily have to protect the service from all sorts of malicious users who just click sign-up. Talk to a person, get a contract, and the whole conversation changes (and yes GCP has account managers for this).
Would you rely on a Chinese-backed OSS component?
My team is evaluating different approaches to rework of the core of our app. One of the approaches is replacing a key component with an OSS one.

One of the fitting replacements being an OSS project originally developed, open sourced, and currently maintained by a Mainland China-based organization/contributors.

This brought a lot of questions since we operate within the EU.

Being part of 'the West', would you accept the risk, evaluate the project, and eventually rely on it as a key component of your app or dismiss it immediately?
i'm REALLY surprised that this is still a problem, especially after the last 911 fiasco (the one where Teams was preventing users from dialing 911 due to call routing)

it feels like android in general has had issues with 911/112. i remember cyanogenmod ROMs (when that was a thing) having issues as well.
It's not fencing if you don't know it is stolen.
Maybe add Mollie.com as backup?
IMHO, no, yes, no.

The intent is to prohibit platforms from leveraging their greater capital reserves to purchase and permanently acquire (and platform-limit) those who make software, thereby decreasing competition between platforms and increasing profits.

There's never been an industry where this worked well for the consumer or society. See: ATT, IBM, Microsoft, Apple.
