OpenAI uses stainless for at least some of their SDKs.

Malort is bitter, but not high proof, so I personally find it much easier to drink than something with more alcohol (if just talking about a shot...)

There's some money but there's really two markets: small medium (eg a lot of work for a relatively small sale) and mega districts (and those generally just goes to the big established players because of connections)

Most school wifi isn't that bad anymore - the bigger problem for us is web filters that break things in interesting ways.

The CTO would have to go in this case too, not be promoted to interim CEO... unless they didn't know it was going on - in which case they shouldn't be made interim CEO either

Agree for our apps.

However, for 3rd party code we run/host but don't really own I see value to a WAF. For example, we unfortunately run WordPress, and I don't have time to manually audit all of the stupid plugins people want to be installed beyond a checker for known vulnerabilities, so a WAF is some comfort/protection.

I wonder if there are some module authors who would like to pull their modules from the terraform registry as a result of this...

I wonder what Google is going to do in this space - it seemed like terraform had been their de-facto infrastructure as code tool for GCP - they really need OSS or to build something first party.

If you are ok with a Saas and if it's just scheduled jobs that you are monitoring, there are a number of monitoring tools where you tell when job completes (with a http request) and a missing ping (after a grace period) means that it failed.

I think https://deadmanssnitch.com/ may have been the original service for this.

https://healthchecks.io/ has a fairly generous free tier that I use now.

There are others that do the same thing Sentry, Uptime Robot, ...

Nothing released by Walmart mentions crime or safety - only profitability, while the news about this whole foods does.

Chicago is a large city and none of these are really downtown. There used to be a small walmart that was actually downtown, but that closed a number of years ago - I do not recall why. There aren't really a lot of Walmart stores in Chicago - there was some kind of fight between the city and company around needing to pay living wages to get the approvals.

Of the closing ones I know the Lakeview store, it is a small/neighborhood store and in a fairly wealthy/pricey location. IMO it was never a great fit for the area's typical resident - there are many other higher end options within walking distance or with parking (which this walmart did not have) - several grocery stores, trader joe's, walgreens, target, whole foods, etc. Without parking or being that close to the subway, it was never the the kind of store that would serve a large area. I'm not at all surprised this one is unprofitable and closing.

Most people will just use the sql templating and scheduled cron jobs features of the cloud, which is very easy to self host.

There is cloud IDE, which is just ok in my opinion. I'd rather use a local editor, but might be a value add for some.

The cloud plans also has metadata features and APIs, which could be worth it for some use cases.

The most interesting thing tied to the cloud is the new metrics feature, but I don't really like how it's done (metrics are defined as sql fragments in YAML). Really using metrics depends on proprietary parts that dbt cloud only has, so if you are using this, you'll probably be paying for the cloud.

We had to abandon DBT cloud because it was very feature limited - it does the basics well though, so is a good starting point for most, but seems like it's easy to outgrow.

The new metrics feature is tied to DBT cloud - probably because that is the only way they could get bigger users to get value from their hosted product and not just DIY it. (offering a largely propitiatory feature). However, I don't know what the uptake of the metrics feature is - it seems half baked to me.

Hopefully it 'just works' and is easier than AWS's DMS.

I use AWS DMS to replica data from RDS => Redshift and it's a never-ending source of pain.

Probably not - unless you are very write heavy and having problems scaling MySQL as-is.

Seems like a clone of https://www.usage.ai which has been on the frontpage a few times recently, but just undercutting the finders fee - I guess that's the "other providers that charge you egregious fees"

I work at an ed-tech and most of our non-technical (sales, curriculum, customer success, etc) have a background in education. It's valuable for those roles to have education experience and it's a natural fit/transition for people looking to get out of education itself.

However, *many* teachers want to get out of education for the reasons you have described, so unfortunately here it's quite competitive even for relatively entry level positions on that side of the house.

It might be worth considering applying to education companies specifically, which would give some corporate/business experience that might enable a future pivot elsewhere for her.

My brother and sister-in law (not married to each other but just by coincidence) also both work for tutoring/supplemental private education companies, but more on the business/leadership/curriculum side of things. Because of the nature of the job, their hours are unusual (late starts, not Monday-Friday), but otherwise seems like a better environment than public education. I know both of their companies hire public school teachers for instructional roles, but I don't know what the advancement paths are like.

Having worked with JAMF's API... I don't like it, but yeah, this is not normal and something as to how your company is using JAMF.

The people in charge of this are usually more of the IT than 'self respecting engineers'

iPads can be put into a "shared iPad mode" that is managed from MDMs.

I have no interested in listening and I've thought about canceling spotify for how hard they push the podcast with no way to hide it.

Why would any developer ever use replit again?

In VSCode, I use https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=streetsi...

I also enable & use it with languages it doesn't really have proper support for (like sql and ruby) - just add words to the dictionary as they come up.

acquisition might have been their strategy all long, but I can't see ServiceNow doing anything but strangling what was a cool tool - though maybe in the best case some observability will carry over to huge enterprises

Stitch is partially open as stitch - many of the integrations they list on their website are hosted versions of OSS singer, but a couple are not OSS.

I'm not sure how Stitch's acquisition will affect Singer contributions and such going forward.

Also, Singer has no UI, it's all CLI.

Data Pipeline is abandoned - it is also miserable to work with.

Otherwise yeah, there might be too many ways to do the same thing, but AWS generally has a stellar track record of supporting everything else they have made.

I've used this before & it was great - however both this and the bitly oauth2 proxy linked about are archived.

https://github.com/oauth2-proxy/oauth2-proxy is a maintained fork.

It's almost like this was intentionally misleading...

We are using Convox v2 too and are happy with it, but I'm hesitant to do the upgrade to introduce the complexity of kubernetes to our devs and if convox the right abstraction on top of kubernetes when there which is already a pile of abstractions in k8s itself (and so many other tools to choose from in the k8s universe).

https://github.com/aws/copilot-cli isn't ready for our use cases, but is more or less convox v2 built by AWS.

We use intercom where I work, it's so expensive and tries to do a bunch of different things but is mediocre at most of them. Congrats and excited to see more.

Here's a good article that I saw on HN a few months ago: https://blog.darknedgy.net/technology/2020/05/02/0/index.htm...

Personally I avoided it for a while because of the hate, but haven't really had issues with it since using it.

Here's the ruby equivalent:

I wonder if this includes or if they can use Direct Connect? [1]

Cloud data transfers are too expensive, personally I assume that it costs more to measure and bill for bandwidth than the usage itself...
