It's just a requirement that everyone has a license and did 1-hour introductory training. Whether you actually use it or not is up to you, but it's encouraged.
I think my general perception is that AI is a great assistant for some occupations like software engineering, but due to its large room for error it's very impractical for majority of business applications that require accuracy. I'm seeing this trend at my company, which operates in the medical field and recently mandated that all engineers use CoPilot. At the same time it's a struggle to see where we can improve our business processes with AI - outside of basic things like transcriptions and spell checking - without getting ourselves into a massive lawsuit.
I must be missing something obvious, but what do signed URLs have to do with requests going directly to resources in a bucket instead of a CDN of some sort like Cloudflare? Signed URLs are typically used to provide secure access to a resource in a private bucket. But it seems like it's used as a cache of sorts?
Interesting. So, it's like buying a house on leased land, which I see quite a bit of in Southern California as real estate values shot to the moon. Why would anyone buy an office building like this? Is the expectation that people will go back to office in the near future and the owners will be back in the profit on rent?
The GDP and the number of open jobs isn't indicative of a coming recession to me. In my opinion, The FED will likely cause a recession when they start cutting rates because business will start cutting back spending in anticipation of cheaper credit. The faster they cut the shorter the recession will be.
This is how Wall Street makes their money. They use media to manufacture peak fear and buy the lower bottoms. This happens every single correction. Same thing with the phony analysts, majority of whom just follow the trends and spew out higher price predictions basically manufacturing a buying frenzy with seemingly little to no research. They were doing this with Nvidia for months before it topped out.
Worked on a ton of classic ASP back in 06-08 at a local insurance company. They crazy thing is that none of that stuff got converted to anything else and is still running in production.
> Web servers upgraded to Hetzner’s AX42 (AMD 8700GE, 8 cores). On the old machines, saw a few nonsensical Python exceptions. A kernel update and a reboot didn’t fix it. Rather than messing with hardware troubleshooting, I upgraded to newer, faster, and more efficient machines.
> Database servers upgraded to Hetzner’s EX101 (Intel 13900, 8+16 cores). I was setting up new database replicas after an outage and failover event and took the opportunity to upgrade hardware.
Does anybody know if this setup is containerized? I have to say, I love that this is running on dedicated servers. I don't know how many times I burned myself out trying to setup infrastructure in AWS for personal projects only to accumulate a significant monthly bill and nothing substantial to show for it.
The problem is identifying what to go out and get. Because most people will go out and get the wrong thing and end up burning themselves out of future endeavors.
Nothing interesting. No matter what people say, starting a business is incredibly difficult and takes a certain amount of luck. I've done 3. Failed at all 3. Made $0. Some people aren't cut out and are better off being employees.
I'm in the US and It's bad. Really bad. I feel terrible for anyone without a job trying to find something new. It seems like the only option is to go hunt for recruiters or ask someone to make a recommendation for you at the company you're interested in. Otherwise your resume is probably never looked at. In my experience I tend to see more jobs available in Midwest than anywhere else right now. The pay is pretty average but it isn't terribly low. We're definitely nowhere near the salaries we had a couple years back.
I've been bald for 20 years now. Started losing hair when I was 19. I couldn't really care less at this point and probably wouldn't reverse it even if I could. Just rock a 5 o'clock shadow all over my head and love it, but man those first 3 years were absolutely brutal. It's a hard thing to cope with for any man. I wish there was a treatment for young guys out there, but I also wish we spent more research on more important things instead.
I also found it humorous. Zuck is known as "is he that Facebook guy?" and a human robot among millennials, not a glorified spokesperson for his generation.
This is how I would build this in AWS. Upload to S3 via pre-signed URLs. Create a notification on the bucket which publishes new objects to an SNS topic. Then create a lambda function with its own dedicated SQS queue subscribing to the SNS topic mentioned earlier. This setup would allow you to post-process new uploads without data loss (and at scale) especially if you use a DLQ. The lambda would drop all post-processed images into another bucket from which you can serve them safely via cloudfront distribution. Beware, if you have a high traffic site this will probably cost you an arm and a leg in S3 costs and Lambda executions. You could consider aging out items in the upload bucket to save some moneys. Similarly, you could use an auto-scaled ECS task instead of lambda, which would scale out (and in) based on the number of items in the queue. Not for the faint of heart, I know :))
You should never be serving content from S3 directly anyway. Always setup a cloudfront distribution for your buckets and allow origin access identity (OAI) access to the bucket.
Not sure if it's hard but it's definitely costly. Looks like average renovation costs (after some quick googling) $100-$200/sqft and with an average office tower floor size of 25000sqft it's going to be at least $2.5M per floor.
Judging by the name of supported operations it looks like this is built around a type of CQRS pattern. Am I reading this right? Is it possible grant granular operations like a specific type of read or write for an entity?
I'm getting information all over the place on the quality of these Chinese EVs. I've seen BYD breakdowns which pointed at their manufacturing process heavily relying on conventional ICE architecture. For example, instead of using air suspension a lot of these vehicles are using conventional MacPherson setup. Similarly, the electric motor and all wiring is protected by a plastic dust cover underneath the body like the ICE cars. At the same time, I just finished listening to a few interviews with Sandy Munro from 3 years ago where he said that Nio and Xpeng were actually better-built vehicles than Tesla outside of a few minor issues.
I frequent my city's subreddit and when it comes to politics it's mostly socialist and border-line communist content. Anything that is center or right of center gets down-voted into the oblivion so most of those with opposing views do not post anything at all.
Yep, CF Pages indeed! I agree with your sentiment. It always surprised me how much CF offers under their free tier and wouldn't shock me if they start pulling profitability levers and charging for many of these offerings.
Cheapest option I found is a Jekyll site deployed out of a GitHub repo (can be private) to Cloudlfare S̶i̶t̶e̶s̶ Pages. No cost at all even with a custom domain.
