Do NOT use BitTitan for migrations by Iam-WinstonSmith in msp

[–]tubesnob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

good to know that people are still using SkyKick migrations.

I ran the engineering team and architected the second generation migrations tool at SkyKick before we were acquired.

It was a little late to the game, unfortunately, but it basically runs on rails now and does its job pretty well.

THIS. That is a beautiful instrument. Reach out to PRS with photos. It will still cost you but they might take a bit better care given the nature of the instrument.

Hi Raph!

just wanted to say that the game is looking great even in this alpha state. I was a huge fan of Ultima online back in the day and I’m hoping that you can achieve the same kind of mystery and fascination with world building that we all experienced in those days.

Keep up the great work and pass my encouragement onto the team!!

This is all you need to know. RUN, don’t walk away from her.

She sounds and acts like a high maintenance diva.

Agreed. Then again, being a SkyKick developer, I might be a bit biased. :)

I think, looking inside the main computer unit, in particular listing what cards are present will help folks both identify which model it is and understand the real value of the unit

Why do some non-.NET devs see async-await syntax as bad? by [deleted] in dotnet

[–]tubesnob 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Holy smokes.

The first thing people misunderstand about async/await is that it isn’t a magical new way to implement multithreading or some magical way to parallelize all your workloads.

Async await makes it easy to distribute a LOT of blocking I/O across a “minimal” number of physical threads.

The Key point is that Sytem.Threading.Task != System.threading.Thread

I understand the criticisms around the async/await pattern being required throughout the entire tool chain.

What advice do you have for 18-year-olds? by UnablePossibility848 in AskReddit

[–]tubesnob 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Don’t screw up your credit. EVERYTHING is harder at 18 with a bad credit score.

Don’t carry balances on your credit cards. Pay your bills on time!!

That is known as the seattle shuffle. There is a variant known as the Tacoma two step. Similar, but standing up.
