Clusters ready to deploy you applications on. It is meant for companies who want their own private infra, but do not want to maintain it. It is multi cloud, with a focus on europe.
Our secret weapon is “Menno”: an assistant which helps you setting up the cluster and deploying applications. We use the assistant for handson demo’s and workshops and got some really good feedback on it.
Second hand market for prusa printers is decent as well.
I had the classic setup with the apache helicopter on the background and virtual desktops with preview. On MacOS however.
To this day i am still using a single screen, with virtual desktops ordered the same way.
Demo fase, showing the branded version to potential clients. We iterate on it with their feedback.
FWIW: I use scaleway far a medium sized project and find it a good experience. Of course there are bugs and some things could be better. But support is good and the responses to bugs in their terraform provider are quick.
Also using bunny.net, happy so far.
Only thing I am missing is to create mailboxes (not transactional mail) on those two providers. I needed a third one for that.
Any way to migrate my data from slack to Dock?
However: I don’t want to have my data in the US for at least 3 years. For businesses outside the US: they simply cannot have their data in US anymore.
Build european/non-us would be a great argument to use this product.
It has been great. Good terraform provider and reliable service. I like their console, although the design feel very vaporwave to me.
Of course stuff can be better, but it is rapidly improving. The way they implemented grafana + user management was shit. But that’s fixed. Grafana still feels bolted on however. And login is a bit weird with their dedibox or whatever button next to the cloud offering. But no where near as confusing as aws is!
Also bumped on a bug in their terraform provider, found a related bug report, contributed some info and it was fixed within two weeks.
Quite happy so far. Running serverless sql, serverless containers. Secrets management and some iam config. No big stuff but quite sure it is capable to run a decently sized saas.
My point is that the parent I was replying to replied to “only hobbyists pay full price on aws”. The parent was expecting to get a discount on a 10k monthly bill. It is a lot of money, but not to AWS. You probably wont get (much) discount on 10k a month.
We do get discount, but it wont make it cheap.
Bought and connected an apple tv, always switch on the tv with that. Most problems solved.
From that experience, I think this competes with go based web apps mostly. And if so, it makes a good chance at becomming succesful. Zig seams to have a better type system. Additionally the quality of documentation for this project is pretty good. That is something the go ecosystem seems to be lacking in general. The rest of the go perks are there as well. Single binary etc.
Now the ecosystem needs to catch up. Nice!
It is the best iPhone I owned (3, 6s).
But yeah, spotlight is slow and the phone constantly runs out of storage, so apps need to be deleted before installing updates and least used apps are constantly removed. Additionally the screens are way better now and you do see the difference with photos made on an iPhone 16. I guess I'll upgrade late this year when I am sure the 17 (pro?) is a reliable piece of hardware, like my iPhone XS is.
Like many above like to call managers 'managers' I like to call developers/devopsengineers/* 'IT people'. Office is not a 'manager' or 'c-suite' thing. Put it differently: not going to office is an 'IT people' thing.
Being productive is not only the number of lines of code you crank out. Being productive is cranking out the right lines of code. You need to communicate for that. Casually joining a few colleagues talking about work delivers so much value. Maybe make a few decisions without planning a meeting. That is productive!
It is also not only about being productive, It is also about having fun with my team or colleagues. But I also like to sense how my team members are behaving, are people super tired? Are they happy? Etc etc.
Oh and the good old whiteboard sessions, I love them and I miss them.
If I tell my non 'it people' friends my colleagues only want to go to office max 1 time a week... or not at all, most friends call it crazy.
Tomorrow to the office again, yes! 45 minute lunch walk through the city... Close the door at 17:00 and call it a day! Love it!
It is weird, but I do not trust the app any more in planning routes either. Sometimes i have the feeling bugs in the planning part already appear. The stability of the service for sure decreased.
Also there are more nag screens about the premium offer (dude I paid for the other great offer already!).
Very unhappy with this. I hope the komooters build an alternative. I’m happy to support them. I know that eventually I might get betrayed again.
For today I planned another route with komoot. If somebody knows an alternative? I like the komoot user photos because it gives an impression of the (gravel) roads. Plus the suggested routes and the planning ux are great. Im stuck with komoot for now.
Whole enterprises run everything in the cloud. 1000s of vms. From active directory, dns, virtual desktops until “lift and shift” legacy apps. And also a lot of networking to make the company networkwork with aws…
And that is only the technical aspect of it.
Migrations take years.
Also had a few misses. But in general it is ok. Still prefer ai assistant, because i can then direct the result into a certain direction. It also feels faster, it probably is not because of the manual stuff involved.
I must say that I did not see any death threats on X either, but i just choose to stay away from that part of the platform.
It is X vs BlueSky. It participates in the argument between two groups of people. It does not solve anything.
X is a lot worse, but with a growing number of users, a growing number of negativity will come. It starts on the political parts of the platform, but will trickle down to other parts as well.
By Bluesky being put away as a platform for 'lefties' on X and users on Bluesky saying "Go to your fascist platform X" to other users it essentially participates in dividing people. At least, on the political parts of the platform.
It confirms what an amazing job HN did in the last decade or more. Still a nice community, nice people and quality comments. Although some people will say it is in decline, it is still quite a nice and friendly community.
I still enjoy fintwit and like bluesky for energy related things.
Do you use supabase’s api interface to do the queries? Or do you use supabase for other features?
Long story short: I once did a project where I trained cows and attached mobile phones to them to literally call them to come to the milkingrobot. But what kind of ringtone do you pick for a cow? Ended up with a 90s/00s style classic telephone ringtone.
