Seems like the kind of testing I’d expect from Microsoft. Nice.

I really love how the author shares their thoughts as the flow through the problems in the post. Great read.

Big Same feels from me as you. I watched countless good things at Heroku get locked behind enormously expensive “enterprise” contracts.

Write internet satire?

agree. (Also, hello old friend!!)

Please pay attention to this comment OP. The zombie dynos were likely not “closed”. Look at your bill closely.

Tailscale is really nailing service connectivity for the way people are looking at building systems these days.

Excellent collection of enterprise features.

Excellent. That work’s wonderfully for us too ;-)

Is your geo-distributed read replicas going to lean on WAL replication?

Came to suggest the same! Was nice to be able to upvote another users suggestion instead!

It's not that expensive to buy a mirror that covers your TV. I'm not suggesting I have any clue what your friends setup is and if they used a dielectric mirror it was probably pretty spendy compared to the price of TVs today: https://www.twowaymirrors.com/tvmirror/

I am a US citizen, but have two separate businesses that use virtual business addresses provided by two small mailbox businesses in Oregon that have been painless for all addressing/mail needs. The key point is to make sure your businesses registered agents contact info works and that legal correspondence can get to you through them.

Not asking this to distract from the problem but can you link to the raw version of a specific commit/ref?

Small World! I’ve been following ya for ages over on YouTube.

Nice to find you here! Long time subscriber here! Haha small world

I enjoyed this chuckle… and I agree!

They recently changed their agreements with card makers and forced very high pricing. They are charging more because they can, it’s the definition of price gouging.

Any chance you’ve read any books or articles on your theory?

I love carrying the pager during holidays. Nobody breaks anything ;-)

Dungeons and Daddies and Corecuraive are a tie for me.

I once realized it was trivial to dynamically load a ruby class & module on a request-by-request basis in a rack app, which invented an easy way for a group of non-programmers to modify a rails apps views by overloading methods in a file called FooBarCom.rb where FooBarCom could be any domain the app was hosting. :-)

Just found this, played with it for a second and thought y’all would enjoy!

Can you elaborate more? Which? Why do you think this? I also agree with you and I think it’s one that rhymes with shome paus werd. But I think it happened early in their “cloud” journey

Adding a GPU to a Mac, or anything with TB3 really.

Price.

I also saw what you described once in southern Oregon right along the California border, but it was in 1996 and I was a kid. None of the adults around believed I saw an object moving like that and were convinced I had noticed a satellite.

Satellites don’t turn at acute angles without losing momentum. They didn’t believe me.

I know of a few small ISPs that run NetBSD on SOKRIS(sp?) machines to do routing at edge pops.

FWIW, the programming section on twitch often has solo devs working away on projects. You should check that out too.

Brandur will know what I mean when I say, it’s always worked out in our favor at Heroku to soft-delete logicals, but hard-delete physicals. It’s not hard to remember to append a “where deleted_at is null” to some sql, or build into higher order UI’s.

However, GDPR/customer data demands across regimes makes me agree with him and would suggests folks listen. <3

100% this. Excellent, salient, description of the problem.
