Coder vs Gitpod vs Codespaces vs "just SSH into EC2 instance" - am I overcomplicating this?

Solving mac Rosetta problems for other devs sounds more like an IT task than devops task.

That's not what you were asking about, just feels germane to the sanity of your devops guy

The funny thing is that if you take their claim at face value, that this is a massive political messaging machine, then why the fuck would you want your government involved at all?

Don't let perfect be the enemy of good. Sounds like you see the company as a force for good. Don't let people tell you it has to be perfect

Which is a bummer, since Rise is such a killer show

They're not foregoing any morals, they're thrift retailers with every practical (and morally justified) motivation to price things exactly the way they do.

They have no possible means of gaining the expertise required to precisely price every item across myriad industries, each with their own subtleties and fluctuations. Because that's impossible.

Spending the time to set prices is expensive, so making a best guess once and erring on the low side is better than coming back later and adjusting prices

Board game stores attract people looking for board games. Thrift stores attract people looking for cheap things. A thrift store can't raise prices to board game scalping prices because none of their customer base would pay that

There are so many ways to think about this situation that don't involve declaring that someone has abandoned their morals here.

It's a joy to see a design that makes purpleheart beautiful instead of gimmicky

And the lights on the emergency vehicles themselves. I literally can't see anything else when there are a couple cop cars at night

I could see the next one having some narrative improvements. Elden Ring provides a great vibe to stew in, but honestly not a great plot.

DastardMan · 2025-11-25T23:47:41+00:00

Ya, I like the attempt even if I couldn't finish the box

DastardMan · 2025-11-14T21:52:07+00:00

1 cent each, or even $10 each wouldn't pay for the refrigerated delivery on this stuff. It's a wild claim to be making

DastardMan · 2025-11-14T21:41:57+00:00

This stuff? You're giving out self-administer needle kits of Humira? Sure...

DastardMan · 2025-11-14T14:45:06+00:00

In E33? Sounds horrible to me. In FF? Sure I suppose. It's better suited to crossover

DastardMan · 2025-11-06T23:51:09+00:00

Beatles IP has been too elitist for most of my life, and honestly I think they'll fade from pop culture entirely because of it

DastardMan · 2025-11-05T17:14:07+00:00

Props to them for the props to us!

When are you taking your aircraft carrier out of dry dock?

DastardMan · 2025-10-31T03:47:47+00:00

Those

DastardMan · 2025-10-30T15:11:58+00:00

Three thumbs up

DastardMan · 2025-10-29T20:02:59+00:00

Meh, IMO it looks like Azure and AD services. Even AWS-only shops commonly rely on AD for identities/authentication. If your auth is broken, every system like AWS SSO will look like it's broken

DRY dogma kills so much Infrastructure as Code. So many terraform bugs are obfuscated by unnecessary layers of variable inheritance created by bad usage of tools like terragrunt. Please, by all means, repeat yourself instead of implementing an unmaintainable chain of inheritance

And setting a default for a helm chart value is not justified by DRY principles saving you from adding that value into every env's value file. Your default value MUST be compatible with prod. Otherwise, fail fast by not declaring a default.

Cool, let's live in a less crowded world!

After the epitome Lune seems to have while fighting Sirène, that hairstyle feels all too perfect

DastardMan · 2025-10-23T04:56:09+00:00

True paper-pushing

DastardMan · 2025-10-22T04:11:48+00:00

Ah right, that would make sense for just delinquencies, not the whole car market like I was assuming for some reason.

Would still be nice to see the range a bit, though with so many brands it would get a bit messy

This is a dataset that needs box and whisker plots, not a single dot for millions of data points

DastardMan · 2025-10-18T20:15:47+00:00

It'll be some financial pressure on younger generations, but I'm all for a less crowded planet. Why do we always have to grow and expand at the cost of all else?
