No, AWS market share is 99%. Go to any conference regarding cloud ever. Vendors just laugh at GCP, what a joke. Azure mayyybe 2%.

Lol. I hope this is sarcasm. They have zero competition and 100% lockins. I would say AWS is a national threat at this point.

Wait until you try to get the mac address on an iphone.

Lol. No politicians that pass these laws.

US tax codes prevent hiring software devs. No one is going to hire US software devs ever again. (Good voting guys!).

Can you post this app?

If you don't know what a 5 month run way feels like, you haven't experienced life. It really helps you understand what is important to projects and wtf isn't.

I don't let my daughter date anyone that can solder (or carnival workers or clowns).

100% of the script kiddies moved to .env and .git. My logs are filled with request for GET /.env 404. All the kiddies focus mainly on those two, I think the return is the best for their effort. The .env file is super trendy now and used across languages now.

Well my username, "\\'\truncate table user;;\''" has served me well over the years. But some sites I cannot log into for some reason.

IHMO An old myth, I believe: Your immune system needs something to fight, otherwise, it starts finding problems that aren't.

Canada: Sure you will never see a doctor, but, when you do it is free!

Bet he wishes he added those back doors now.

To have a useful alexa instead of 3 of them unplugged in the garage? I mean... its a step towards making money.

Alexa should just use chatgpt, you would have a trillion dollar empire in 10 minutes. That would useful. Otherwise, alexa is usually dumber than my dog.

gpt: give me working html example of javascript beforeunload event, and onblur, i want to see how they work when i minimize a tab.

10 seconds later, I am playing with these out.

From your link:

"It (Operation_Mongoose) was officially authorized on November 30, 1961 by U.S. President John F. Kennedy."

JFK was shot in the head (most likely Oswald visited Mexico City and the Cuban and Soviet consulates). So... even more bad gambles by Cuba.

OR. They lost a gamble. They picked Russia over the US and lost, big.

If you are on GCP and don't have time to patch, GCP recommends turning off your port 22 for now. https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/security-bulletins

1. Find things that are 0.0.0.0 port 22, example, https://gist.github.com/james-ransom/97e1c8596e28b9f759bac79...

2. Force them to the local network, gcloud compute firewall-rules update default-allow-ssh --source-ranges=10.0.0.0/8 --project=$i;

"Good developers are just as in demand now as they have ever been."

Citation needed.

The title was worded wrong, I think engineers (at least me), would make more sense out of: "The world needs more good people, the world does not need more smart people." Engineers often confuse "good people" with "smart people". But they are not related at all. And no, we don't need more smart people optimizing ads. We need more good people helping.

Snowflake employees need time to sell off all their shares. This news will hurt the SNOW stock price big.

Ukraine is literally banned by the US from using US ordinance in RU. But at this point, Ukraine better break some rules.

You mean terraform?

Stupid question. Ansible is mentioned TWO times in HN hiring thread, it will soon be zero. Isn't this dated tech? Ansible is good at patching servers (have cute names, make sure they are patched). Patching??? But, why not use containers? Aren't we moving away from Ansible/Puppet? I would much rather have AWS/CDK or pythoninfra like this if I was into pet machines.

Like I tell my parents, taking away "The love boat" rerun away from ME on channel 4 when I was eight, IS NOT LIKE taking away a phone from a kid today that is playing Roblox. Roblox is NOT a rerun of a horrible 70s show. It is a fully immersive, awesome and a complete social network. I view it closer to cocaine.

To save VM instance costs (not disks)? Probably never.

China is approving new coal power projects at the equivalent of two plants every week, a rate energy watchdogs say is unsustainable if the country hopes to achieve its energy targets.

"Give me a car with a simple backup camera, manual transmission, and regular sized vehicle (no trucks or suvs, fuck that)."

Mazda, cx5 <= 2016. Small. Has usb sd, simple knobs, backup camera. It reminds me of when apple removed the escape key, I had to learn how to buy a used mac.

"claiming you have to obey Libyan laws and regulations"

I always smile when bosses want everything to be GDPR compliant. I am not sure why these laws are more important than the laws from the Chilean Navy. Why are we clicking on cookie popups? We think the EU is smarter than the PII laws from Cameroon? Elitism I say. My websites follow strict guidelines set by proper Constitution of Cameroon doctrines. Every fourth visit to my site we dump all contents in html form (obviously).
