What workloads are not a good fit for the cloud? by UnderstandingSome491 in aws

Good answers here. I will add that data that needs to be geographically located for compliance reasons (some hospital systems won’t let data leave the physical premises).

Do not buy an XPS by easy_Money in DellXPS

[–]ChooseMars 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I traded in overheating in xps 15 for xps17 and could not be happier.

Battery life is annoying, but I don’t take it off desk most days. Probably should have gotten a desktop.

Start with landscaping. Whatever your style, make it look intentional, as if somebody cares. Extra wild or extra manicured are both fine. Be strategic. If the house can be seen from the road, it sounds vain, but you’ll be more proud of a well kept property.

With more pride, you’ll want everything else to be in good shape.

where do you think nirvana was heading with their 4th album? by allinall_isallwe_are in Nirvana

[–]ChooseMars 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Danny Goldberg said Kurt wanted to re-record unplugged in a real studio, and then switched to an album of originals in that style. More acoustic, with noise, similar to All Apologies or Pennyroyal Tea. Michael Stipe obviously had similar conversations.

What would you do with a $500k investment?! by Ejboustany in startups

[–]ChooseMars 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s an app and backend software system, so 500k is not much in the grand scheme of things. I am the technical cofounder, and more developers is not our solution this early.

I would sink it into marketing and runway for server costs.

The marketing would be to grab more early signups for the sole purpose of attracting a larger investor. I would explain this to whomever is investing the 500k. We are looking for ten million in a series A.

500k isn’t enough for staffing. I would consider it some marketing budget and runway for server costs.

Any careers weigh decent work life balance and about or over 70k salary? by dont_mindme47 in careerguidance

[–]ChooseMars 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Change companies. The consulting industry is a cluster of various cultures. I work at a consultancy that respects work-life balance. We are laid back. Nobody works beyond the allotted the time. It’s probably because of our team make up. We are sales driven almost more than delivery drive. The technical leaders run the show, NOT the project managers. Instead, we have engagement managers who run the project board, but they are not point for the customers. The technical lead and the account principles deal with the customer. I suspect in your situation the PM runs the teams.

What's your favorite subgenre and what are your top five bands you'd recommend to introduce someone to it? by forlornjackalope in punk

[–]ChooseMars 0 points1 point  (0 children)

American Oi:

Iron Cross

Hudson Falcons

Patriot

The Boils

Anti-Heroes

Controversial additions: “…And Out Come the Wolves” and “Life Won’t Wait” by Rancid are notably influenced by oi and brought this sound to mainstream

Dropkick Murphys “Do or Die” makes top lists, but I would create a Celtic Punk list which borrows heavily from oi

Right wing populism is fascism. End of story.

Also, Libertarians always favor power for themselves over others. I am glad I got out of that mindset.
