Weirdly I felt like it got more LLM-y the further I got in. Then I hit the part with:

  But the thing I can’t get past is Fort Huachuca’s failure mode.
  
  Not: the freezer compressor died.
  
  Not: the power went out.
  
  Not even: the refrigeration system stopped cooling.
  
  Every freezer went into active defrost.

Don't worry, I think everyone probably went on the same roller coaster with this one

The README also lists Java and Ruby

Really beautiful piece.

They were responding to an incident (unidentified odor on another plane)

Much of this matches my own experience. A few thoughts:

1. Cost tracking meetings with your finance team are useful, but for AWS and other services that support it I highly recommend setting billing alarms. The sooner you can know about runaway costs, the sooner you can do something about it.

2. Highly recommend PGAnalyze (https://pganalyze.com/) if you're running Postgres in your stack. It's really intuitive, and has proven itself invaluable many times when debugging issues.

3. Having used Notion for like 7 years now, I don't think I love it as much as I used to. I feel like the "complexity" of documents gets inflated by Notion and the number of tools it gives you, and the experience of just writing text in Notion isn't super smooth IMO.

4. +1 to moving off JIRA. We moved to Shortcut years ago, I know Linear is the new hotness now.

5. I would put Datadog as an "endorse". It's certainly expensive but I feel we get loads of value out of it since we leaned so heavily into it as a central platform.

My three year old would do the same thing if he was playing in his sandbox and I abruptly picked him up and carried him away from what he was doing though. In my experience managing transitions between activities is one of the most important things. If I let my him watch a video and I tell him "I'm going to turn off the TV when it ends", he just goes back to playing with his toys when it goes off.

Don't get me wrong, I think screen time can definitely be a problem. I just think it mostly comes down to whether or not the screen time is at the expense of something else more constructive.

I agree. The entire "The Path Forward" and "The Bottom Line" breakdowns at the bottom gave me the same impression.

Also, take a moment to review your own change before asking someone else to. You can save them the trouble of finding your typos or that test logging that you meant to remove before pushing.

To be fair, copilot review is actually alright at catching these sorts of things. It remains a nice courtesy to extend to your reviewer.

I hear this a lot and it's surprising to me. We have three cars in our family (two with carplay and the Rivian) and carplay always feels like such a downgraded experience compared to that of the Rivian.

Same, I've had mine for a couple of years now with no notable software issues at all.

Agreed, we've been running multiple aurora clusters in production for years now and have not encountered this issue with failovers.

Yeah, Dropbox Paper remains the best pure writing experience I've ever used at work. I think Notion has a lot of nice features, but just writing in it still feels more cumbersome than Paper did a decade ago.

My wife and I still say this to each other all the time

>> It's a transcript of a podcast.

> That's almost the perfect definition of "lazy journalism".

They produced, edited, interviewed multiple people including one of the people who worked directly on the project in question, and then provided a transcript of their conversation to make it accessible to a wider audience and that's lazy journalism?

Schema is a proper noun in Postgres: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/ddl-schemas.html

Depending on where you draw the lines, maybe Oculus. I think from the formation of the company to shipping dev kits was less than a year, but there was obviously research and prototypes that happened prior to that, and it was a while before they were shipping consumer devices.

Redis barely misses the decade cut I think, with an early 2009 start to a production launch and rapid adoption starting around mid-2009.

Wow, in my 15 or so years I've never _not_ had a manager who had engineering chops. Admittedly, I prefer working for smaller companies so this has often been a hands-on CTO, and I was filtering these job opportunities for technical leaders that I respected.

A note to the original author, it looks like you're including the inputs with your solutions on github which the AoC folks request that you not do: https://www.reddit.com/r/adventofcode/wiki/faqs/copyright/in...

Why does the title refer to this as a Go editor when the linked page is talking about having support for 23 different languages?

I suppose that depends on if you're blanket-allowing network, though. You could pass an allow list of ips/hosts that are allowed, though that's not going to be feasible for every application: https://deno.land/manual@v1.26.0/getting_started/permissions...

For some quick catharsis, have a look at https://jiralover.tumblr.com/

I don't have any first-hand experience to share, but my wife used to work at https://www.audicus.com/ which is a startup focused on exactly this problem, in case you're interested in further research.

Ha, this just reminded me that back in... 2009 or 2010, I tweeted something about being frustrated with JIRA and within an hour I had a message from someone at Atlassian warning me that I was in violation. I think I deleted the tweet, I wish I could go back and revisit it.

> If we imagine for a moment that you work in an office in Palo Alto, you could now choose to live in Hayward (5 min flight, $25), downtown San Francisco (10 min flight, $50), or even San Rafael (15 min flight, $70).

This is a strange example to include in here – that's a pretty expensive (one-way?) commute.

That's surprising to me. I used TeamCity for ~4 years at my last job and thought it was pretty decent (compared to experiences with Jenkins, Circle, and Travis).
