Twitch is not using Akamai.

Luckysheet comes with the MIT license.

The new Dell XPS 2020 or the MB Air.

I have honestly no clue, seemed weird at the time to me as well.

DigitalOcean was actually a C Corp, they switched to a LLC down the road.

Ye, right, the DDoS and security incidents Linode had are absolutely no issue.

This looks completely terrible. Why are those "Graphic Elements" so pixelated?

There are many parts, you have the actual application where users can create newsletter campaigns, create lists with recipients and stuff like that. Basically a simple web app. The hard part about those tools is the sending part. The goal is to directly reach the recipients inbox without getting blocked or mails being routed directly to the spam folder.

What that means is that you want full control over the actual mail servers to have influence and can adjust things. The easy route wouuld be SES, it would work but you basically have no control over anything.

When running your own mail servers things like IP repuation becomes important. You probably want multiple different IP subnets, so that if one or more IPs are getting blacklisted temporary you can use other IPs or subnets. This way you could also rotate through those IPs. Use the good IPs for good customers, IPs that got blacklisted in the past could be used for new users that are higher risk. Handling all those things is a constant hassle.

Yes, I know, and the iGPU is complete dogshit. Why would I spend 2k+ on a device that is completely limited by it's GPU. It is not even able to run scaled 4k screens properly.

And regarding the size: Who cares? It's not a portable device, so make it a bit bigger and no one cares but is happy that the hardware is better.

They should release an ATX "Mac Board", one version with an Intel socket and one with an AMD socket for like $499-$599 USD. It would sell so well and they would still earn so much money.

With a Hackintosh you have the full experience, since you have macOS installed. The underlying hardware is basically the same.

Until you need to use the Adobe Suite.

I am using Hackintoshes for the past 5++ years and it's running smooth and stable. I always make sure to buy only hardware that is supported and I never had any problems.

Updates were a pain in the past, but recently they are being applied smoothly.

My Hackintosh is my main device (typing from it right now) and I am working on it 10h+ a day for years without interruptions, so I think it's more than worth it for me.

Apple simply does not understand what we want.

OpenCore is completely open source.

The Mac Mini has no integrated GPU and is dead because of this reason. Why would I buy such an elegant device if I have to hook an ugly eGPU case.

About time after everything was down for weeks in 2015.

How long does it take you to set it up?

I am a long-term customer (Colocation and dedicated servers) of M247.ro (I am from Germany) and I am more than happy with their service. They are super reliable, reputable, flexible and their support is fast, friendly and gets the job done.

I can vouch for them and don't think they have anything to do with what you accuse them of. They are just a big company with a lot of locations, which makes it fairly easy for VPN companies to get started.

Regarding the IP addresses... They announce IPs for free, which is a very nice service (some providers charge absurd amounts for it). They also do it for my company, so my IPs show up under their ASN, but this is nothing shady and just regular business.

I guess the problem for DO is buying hardware, upfront costs for colocation (renting cages without actually using all of the available cabs/space), etc.. If they would stop buying hardware, which means no more growth and available resources, they would be super profitable.

I always liked the Hipmunk branding :-)

I am using Devise for everything :-)

They are very expensive and you need a big truck to lift those. It's not suited for every city and every place.

I can tell you that I worked 80 hours a week for several months and while it is not effective, it was "necessary" for the business to survive. I had 4-6 hours per day that were really effective (if even), the others were just there to get simple stuff done, which was necessary to meet deadlines.

Would I do it again? Absolutely not, because it is simply bad management. But I can imagine how easy it is to get stuck in such a work environment. Or people might think "when it is working once, it will work all the time". The truth is that if the deadlines and work would have been planned better it would easily be achievable in 40 hours.

The problem is that some startups are super chaotic, overpromise, underdeliver without even thinking about how long something takes.

What the actual fuck.

Why are you even considering such a position?

We switched to Mapbox as well, the only downside we faced was the horrendous satelitte maps. They apperantly bought a lot of satellite imagery, but it still looks way way worse compared to Google or Apple Maps. The weird thing is that when zooming in it gets pixelated, even though the maps actually look more crisp when not zoomed in completely.

They have a much lower TDP though, so they aren't comparable. There is no 10th gen yet that fits the TDP of the 16 inch MBP.

For a long time I was using a 27" 4k screen. I recently upgraded to a 32" 4k screen and tried ultra wides before buying. For me, nothing beats a single 32" 4k screen. Sadly there are no 32" 5k screens, otherwise I would have bought one.

So basically the cloud competitor for Ubuntu, since they marketed Fedora wrong all the time.

GitHub, Shopify and Basecamp are all running on Rails 6.
