There is plenty of information. Perhaps not super relevant to HN but just not consuming the post is probably a better strategy.

This exactly. We have pipelines designed specifically for this reason. We pull, patch, and perform minor edits to images we use. We then version lock all-the-things for consistency.

Not saying this is good news, but in the Enterprise, you have to plan for shit like this.

Try Allulose. It's newish and amazing. It is the closest to actual sugar of all substitutes.

I don't think that Google Takeout is a restorable service. It's more of an "Oh snap, I lost my Google Account forever and lost my data" type of recovery option.

I feel like some of this should be "grand-fathered" in. Perhaps you were a victim of an upsell. Any electricians that can verify?

For example, I needed a new fence. I got a few quotes and most were DRASTICALLY high priced as they wanted to move my fence to comply with current code. An older, more experienced worker had no problems with permits and said I was grand-fathered in because it was already existing. I even self-checked with the city. He was right.

Transferrence. You ever tussle with a dog and he goes and attacks the cat?

I always wondered about the logic here. They purport to be reputable but use phone number randomizers and shifting domains. If they don't want to be treated as spam then they should act professionally which leaves the decisions to the users directly.

Perhaps hardware keys are the answer? Seems like a lower cost alternative.

I don't buy this for a millisecond. Amazon ushered in this behavior and made it the "norm". It's throwaway, cheap, non-branded junk... and dangerous. There is value in discussion of the manipulation of the market and not just "Shop somewhere else". It's predatory.

It may depend on the type of work but there is something to be said about the longevity of the art and legacy.

Calvin and Hobbes was a massive part of my youth. It fed that creative and mischievous part of me that "regular" life just wasn't satisfying. I was smitten and still am.

Fast forward to my daughter's birth... At around 4 years old, I bought her the giant anthology of strips which includes everything Calvin and Hobbes ever printed. Like me, it shaped her in undefinable ways. It drove her drawing and reading off the charts. She very much grew as a person because of Bill's work and my influence in reading to her often. She took over very quickly! She latched on and studied those books with a fervor that I've not seen repeated in her yet.

Do you think the result would have been the same if there were T-shirts, TV shows, video games, and the like plastered all over? You can only shield a child from the world so much. They absorb everything.

Anyway, I think Bill absolutely made a most excellent decision. Not only for himself, but for us.

I don't know my dude, all 3 major clouds offer "canned" k8s services that you can set up in a ridiculously short amount of time with Terraform and your CI platform of choice.

I agree with some other comments in this thread about a general fervor in the Enterprise space to "modernize" needlessly. This conversation usually lands on the company copying what everyone else is doing or what Gartner tells them to do. Cue "DevOps".

100 percent agree with your comments on something simpler. I can't tell you how many times I've debated with our Analytics teams to just use Docker Compose/Swarm.

I prefer DNS filtering over extensions as they generally want all permissions to essentially impersonate you at the browser level. Am I wrong?

This is absolutely the correct way Lego intends you to play. They even make the boxes flimsy and cheap on purpose to not encourage saving them. There are some Lego employees on TikTok that speak of their training and "secrets" if interested. Not a source of truth, but interesting none the less.

Personally, I enjoy the modern Lego in that there is parental choice. As a company, they cater to all audiences without a strong opinion either way. This is the way.

I'm just aghast that they are still trying to figure out if he broke any laws. As in, how in the heck would a retail trader even know if the experts can't figure it out? ...feels like they think his actions results were negative and they want a scapegoat by any means possible.

Ultimately, the sentiment is to protect the financial sector while punishing retail. Business as usual.

Oddly, I'm the opposite. Working in devops and vscode, I find the visual aspect of color and logical formatting improves my work dramatically. Small tools like "bat" vs. "cat" on the terminal are great at quick data parsing for things like yaml, json, and the like. Staying old school for the sake of old school is a bit of a fallacy IMHO.

Wouldn't they need a cert/custom CA on your box to do that?

Amazing write-up! Your efforts are much appreciated. I have an Intel Mac Air with an external monitor and strongly feel that usability items like these are sorely underrated. Kudos for the great work in a seemingly closed ecosystem.

Wouldn't it be more like any games you bought at GameStop would force you to pay a cut to Gamestop from inside the games in-game store? ...that GameStop has nothing to do with.

Source? ...moderated via automation or human?

Is the 3% fee to "cash out" earned on your end or PayPal? It just feels a little disengenuous to advertise a rate but the only way to receive payment is at a loss of 3%. ...or is the model that the sharers are also customers and you encourage them to use the service while discouraging "cashout"?
