Agree. There’s a street, a monument, a research facility and two schools with her name in a 10km radius of me.

A exhaled some air harder than usual, and gave you an Upvote. FWIW.

Napoleon and Hitler couldn’t but Emperor Meiji (1905), Kaiser Wilhelm (1917), President Piłsudski (1920) and the Mujahideen (1980s) managed just fine, just to mention the 20th century.

YouTube Premium is getting a huge price hike in over a dozen countries, sparking user backlash. Some countries are experiencing hikes between 30% and 50% (mas.to)

YouTube Premium users across the globe are facing significant price hikes as Google increases subscription costs in over a dozen countries. This follows earlier price jumps in various regions, including the United States last summer. The latest increases vary by region, with some countries experiencing hikes between 30% to 50%....

And that he has a beautiful healthcare plan.

Tja ,

US and Switzerland are way over 100k. For Netherlands and Germany 100k is a good approximation for the company costs for a senior SWE.

Tja ,

Yeah, 80k gross for the worker creates close to 100k costs for the employer.

The ground below the pyramid is Avocado Toast.

We’re millenials, after all.

And the bubbles have different shades of turquoise.

Yes it’s much better to use

But it’s like really hard. Like, takes dozens of seconds. Dozens! You cannot expect that level of effort just because it’s someone’s job!

Tja ,

Apply. I myself was contacted by a recruiter on LinkedIn. It’s absolutely normal to switch.

Tja ,

If someone doesn’t know this about academia, their reasearch skills are not that great.

It has meme status at this point.

Tja ,

Take a look at any factory floor and robots (machines) already have taken 80% of jobs.

Tja ,

Disagree. People are terrible using the cloud, and often are doing lift and shift instead of modernizing.

Incompetent users are the problem, not the cloud.

Tja ,

Well, if you did your budget planning with a loss leader that can happen. Did you get prices from AWS S3, Google Suite, Azure Blob storage, GCP, etc, or just blindly went back to what you knew?

Tja ,

Didn’t the 0 cost sound any alarms? Y’all thought that was sustainable?

Tja ,

How is it a captive market if the whole discussion started with an on-prem migration?

Tja ,

And that’s why you go with the big guys (and pay a premium for it).

I work for a SaaS company that offers a cloud version as well as a software license. We only support the big 3 because everyone else is just keeping their systems up with chewing gum and duct tape, and it’s infuriatingly inconsistent. No way of offering a reasonable SLA or for our support guys to dig into an infra problem. And this includes relatively big players like Ali, Tencent, Yandex, DO or OVH.

In the end, 95% of customers pay less if they choose the cloud version, only if you have 24/7 steady load (and a high one) will it be cheaper to pay for infra, SREs, licenses and support.

Tja ,

That, and the work being done and the facilities to do the work. Other that that, they’re dandy.

Tja ,

Stronger? Which one? I bought one for 30 bucks and it was extremely loud and had less blowing power than the can. As I buy 1 can every 5 years or so, I returned the electric one.

If you’re not born on January 1st, 1970, you’re not a true John Doe.

The 90’s was a wild time…

Specially for people coming from windows, this was normal. The appeal of mandrake and corel and suse was this kind of graphical control panel à la windows where you needed root privileges in a graphical interface.

I myself didn’t learn about sudo until years later, and su just from debian 3.0.

Tja ,

Because it sucks, both in content and in presentation.

Tja ,

I miss it every day, even tempted to go back. Niche hobbies, local communities, not so niche hobbies…

Tja ,

The admins are evil, but the small communities were quite alright. The bigger ones (soccer, formula1) are good enough to get the news and meme a bit.

The Ohio Supreme Court Just Greenlit an Egregious “Fraud Upon the Voters” (slate.com)

In November, Ohio residents will have an opportunity to vote on Issue 1, a constitutional amendment that would finally abolish the state’s extreme partisan gerrymandering. Voters will not, however, be informed of this fact on the ballot. Instead, the Ohio Supreme Court’s Republican majority ruled Monday that the amendment...

Nominate Vance for president, who is just as evil and spineless, but probably much more effective.

Tja ,

It was a golf course, not a street.

And that digit is 0

Alligators, tho.

Pro: they don’t even need A/C to function!

That’s not even quality RV money…

Calls for J.D. Vance to resign after he admits that he created pet-eating story about immigrants (www.nj.com)

Just about every time J.D. Vance — the most unpopular vice presidential nominee in American history — opens his mouth, he ignites a firestorm of criticism and likely shaves another point off the Republican presidential ticket’s polling numbers....

Stupid life-saving copper based blood…

Guns are more likely to cause an accident than be used in protection. Getting a gun decreases your safety.

Tja ,

I understand, the BBC is a very obscure niche news site.

Tja ,

It’s only lynching if it’s commited in the Lynch region of the deep south. Otherwise it’s just sparkling hate crime.

The “sources” is Vance the previous day in a rally.
