I love the simplicity.
How are things like fraud and chargebacks handled? With collecting money being this easy, I immediately worry about how it would be abused.

(edit) Nevermind:
> Yea and whatsapped her pretending to be me asking her to send it somewhere else. She played along and thanks to her I now have someone's name, bank account number, and CPF to take to the police.
Unfortunately, it still doesn't help in Tamper Monkey in Safari.
A single 8K display would probably be better, but well-reviewed and reasonably priced 8K monitors are not really there yet.
Also, my old 2018 MBP was at its limit driving them all. My new M1 Max has no problem with them (and would be fine with 3x 5K displays as well), so it's looking more possible now.
I usually have the following things open in specific spots:
- General Browser (mostly for email and weather)
- Calendar
- Terminal
- Text Editor
- Desktop Mode Browser for App in Development
- Detached Debug Console for the above
- Mobile View Browser for App in Development with attached Debug Console
- Browser for documentation / reference
- To Do List

For what I would define as "adult", which is understanding the realities of life outside the shelter of their family infrastructure, I would argue most colleges don't really further a student's self-reliance in that way.
If anything, they create another, different reality bubble which is again popped when they are dropped into to the actual real world, often with a mountain of debt. This is the point at which, in my opinion, where someone learns to become an adult.
Does learning new information and skills help one become a better functioning adults? Of course. But college doesn't have a monopoly on being the way to acquire information and skills.
As the price of education in the US continues to increase (for no good reason, other than people can get loans to pay it), college will increasingly fail the cost/benefit analysis for a lot occupations.
As an aside, your attitude seems to imply that you think people who have not gone to college are lesser in some way. I would apply some critical analysis to that.
People repeat that but what is it based on?
Most of the adult population have not gone to college but somehow manage to become functioning adults.
If the part is only used say in a single model of dishwasher, there will never be enough demand to justify the creation of an aftermarket one.
I was told they they should normally be able to do this replacement, but they didn't have replacement batteries available. After mentioning I could just leave the device with them until the stock became available, they went off into the back for a few minutes.
When they returned, they said they would accept my years old Macbook as a return for its original purchase price and I walked out with a brand new Macbook Pro essentially for the cost of the tax.
I cannot imagine getting this service from any other computer vendor.
uBlock Origin, which is installed by my IT department, seems to be blocking the load of a JavaScript file from fast.appcues.com, not sure if that's the cause or not.
People on my team are actively encouraged to use their PTO on an on-going basis.
However, normalizing the fields that contain repetitive data into separate tables could create significant space savings since the full text for each column would not need to stored for each row. Instead of 20-30 bytes per email address, a 4 byte (assuming 32-bit era) OID is stored in its place.
It's pretty easy to imagine how quickly the savings would add up, and that it would be very helpful in the era before SSDs or even 1TB HDDs existed.
In this case, I think it’s Apple’s proper prioritization of features. Probably also that Apple is able to do this because they don’t have to work on dozens of different models at the same time.
It’s amazing to me that no major PC manufacturers have really done this yet.
One you qualify though, I don't think they can re-test you.
If someone else creates the bucket on their AWS account, I am stuck. I would have to use a different hostname, or use a more complex workaround. Since creating empty buckets costs nothing, it effectively allows DoSing hostnames from an S3 hosting standpoint.
It would be one thing to allow this behavior if a domain owner explicitly wanted it, via a TXT record or something, but as it is, it's a poorly designed solution.
I have experienced very poorly engineered code (from a best practices standpoint) which easily would be considered over engineered, and very well engineered code (again from a best practices standpoint) which falls squarely in the under engineered bucket.
In my experience, the code that most closely follows best practices, be it either over or under engineered, will be easier to correct.
It seems like the product is either:
(a) A tool for indie or small dev teams to build infrastructure before they have learned the AWS stack.
(b) A tool for small DevOps teams to simplify managing and developing their Terraform developments.
The marketing of the site seems to be selling scenario (a), but the paid plans make it seem like you'll only be making money in scenario (b).
If I imagine myself being in scenario (a), I can see becoming pretty disillusioned the second my first issue or wall popped up, since I am not going to be supported by AWS or the product. It seems someone in this scenario is way better served by choosing a managed hosting solution of some kind.
As someone personally in scenario (b), the idea of "do more without understanding it" is a very off-putting sales pitch. Terraform and AWS have way too many gotchas to fully abstract away all but the simplest of implementations. Sweeping those under the rug with abstractions is too much risk if the team doesn't understand what's happening. If the pitch was something more like "speed up your teams Terraform development and management experience", it would be a lot more interesting.
InsureMyTrip is the leading travel insurance aggregation and comparison platform in the US. We are looking for a DevOps Engineer to join our team to assist in the migration of our on-prem stack to AWS.

(a) The reasoning is often either not communicated, or is poorly communicated.
(b) It takes away a risk/benefit decision from people that are mostly capable of making on their own. Don't want to take the risk of a rare side effect? Wait for an mRNA vaccine. Think the risk of COVID for your particular scenario is higher? Let me accept the risk.
There isn't a way that a single model of the scenario produces the 'correct' or 'safest' decision for everyone. Also, there is no good reason that a person of sound reasoning cannot make this decision for themselves.
On top of that it was common for drivers to be included on 3.5” that came with hardware, even for server grade hardware, this persisted for a long time. It was not uncommon even in the late 2000s for rack mount servers to include floppy drives for this reason.
Lastly, because of their size 5.25” disks were rarely included in laptops and portables once 3.5” disks became available. Having 3.5” disks being prominent in laptops led to many miniaturized versions of the 3.5” mechanisms which translate well into a USB peripheral form factor.
