Copenjin··on Stackit: Cloud and Colocation
Hetzner is more of a rival to AWS than this for now.
Copenjin··on Possible Spring core RCE
It looks like they are mixing it up with CVE-2022-22963 related to spring cloud[1] from a few days ago and one of the members of the Spring project is reporting that there is no vulnerability associated with the deserialization fix everyone (the chinese OP, the eng posts) is referring to.

Copenjin··on Possible Spring core RCE
The blog post on Kendra looks like a draft hoping for an actual confirmation/poc to come up, the mitigation just explains manually how to replicate the PR #28075.

Edit: They just translated the chinese post you can find linked here.

Copenjin··on Parallels Desktop Pro now sends spam notifications with ads to your desktop
And what about the popup when the trial ends to get parallels and x other famous mac apps (not clear which ones) for a once in a lifetime deal? No thanks.
Copenjin··on It’s great to be a consultant
I'm happy for him but it was obvious even without reaching the end of the post that he's been a consultant only for two years or so. The consultant's life is not all sunshine and rainbows. Every one of his points, except 2, have huge downsides.
Copenjin··on Novak Djokovic's Visa Cancelled by Australian Minister for Immigration
Rules exist.
Copenjin··on The dawn of post-theory science?
No, there is something objectively ridiculous in that association, also, please don't compare the scientific contribution of individuals at FAANGs to the scientific contributions of Newton.
Copenjin··on The dawn of post-theory science?
They just used him as a placeholder to represent something modern in my opinion, likely with dismissive intent.
Copenjin··on I went back to using a ThinkPad from 2012
3 times faster with 64 cores instead of 10, that slower single thread performance is having a big impact.
Copenjin··on Ask HN: My client want an agent on my laptop. Is this the new normal?
Don't let this become the new normal, find a better client.
Copenjin··on The Matrix Is Unreal
I wonder if one day there will be companies that will just sell iper realistic models of complete cities or popular zone to be used in games or other kind of applications.

Like companies such as Tele Atlas did back in the days for map data (when they didn't have much more than that I guess).

Copenjin··on Supabase open sourced their dashboard

Copenjin··on Books that changed my career as a software engineer
>To this day I cringe when I see methods/functions over 20 lines long..

Wait until you have to follow dozens of 5 lines methods for the sake of unrequited abstraction that could have been compacted in an easier to read 30 line method.

Copenjin··on Books that changed my career as a software engineer
I agree and hope that no one will come here commenting in favour of the uncle&co, what relevant software have they actually written? And how much time has been lost refactoring code from people that mindlessly followed their extremely simplified recommendations and toy examples? Let's forget them please.
Copenjin··on Aliens Would Visit for Knowledge, Not Resources
I've seen enough of Naval's tweets to know it's not a problem if I don't click further.
Copenjin··on Ask HN: Is it unprofessional to leave a new job where everything is a mess?
Run. It's not your job to fix years of issues created by other people and destroy yourself in the process.
Copenjin··on Gitlab from YC to IPO
Yep, that wiki is amazing.

Copenjin··on Twitch source code and customer data has reportedly been leaked
Dang, shouldn't we remove the links/magnets?
Copenjin··on Instacart CEO will be replaced by Facebook executive
Disrupting language.
Copenjin··on Asking developers to do QA is broken – why anyone should own QA
"Time spent doing QA is time not spent writing code"

I wonder, is the time spent fixing inane production issues time well spent? Is the time spent by testers/QA to report obvious bugs well spent?

Devs, test your stuff like if you were the only one doing QA, and everyone else along the chain should do the same.

Copenjin··on SSD makers start warning that mining products like ChiaCoin will void warranty
Good luck with that idea in EU.
Copenjin··on Ask HN: How do old (30plus) software engineers remain excited about the field?
What if the excitement was only a fabrication of your mind in the first place.
Copenjin··on Ask HN: How do old (30plus) software engineers remain excited about the field?
I've read all those excerpt with a valley girl accent, depressing.
Copenjin··on Linux Sucks 2021 [video]
Never heard of this alternative video platform before, interesting.
Copenjin··on German draft proposal would subsidize smaller firms to enter 5G market
> bet the fibre connection to the not-Huawei 5G towers is going to be Huawei anyway.

With all the competition on fibre equipments I really doubt.

Copenjin··on Build a salary with GitHub Sponsors
I actually like the idea but without a Pricing page it's hard to tell if it's build to last or just an experiment. OnlyFans is clearly for a different kind of content for now, until this changes I don't see why something like this shouldn't be considered a good alternative.

Other than github providing something similar, why don't they also expose something useful about github users supporter info through their API? Maybe they already do, don't think so.

Copenjin··on Poll: Switching from WhatsApp
Wire?
Copenjin··on Code Together: Mob Programming FAQs
Yes, it results better code but is a soul crushing practice, it's ok only when those involved have comparable experience level and can tollerate each other presence, that in my experience rarely happens.

Pretty sure it will never become the norm outside of some cookie-cutter shops that churn out CRUDs.

Copenjin··on AI researcher Timnit Gebru resigns from Google
For those wondering: https://twitter.com/timnitgebru/status/1276326634195259392

If someone would link this to me, I'll interpret it as extremely dismissing. A declaration of war.
