It’s hard to overstate this: putting in extra hours at the cost of sleep is almost never worth it. Even just looking at the next day, not considering the mid/long term.

Just discovered that Firefox (but not other major browsers as far as I can tell) has a toggle to always underscore links.

I wonder how the outage would look like, had Google actually run on GCP.

To put it into perspective: the second edition was released 3 years before Linux and vim, 8 before PostgreSQL. Emacs predates the book by 3 years.

Context: C

And, most importantly, K finally works as intended in vim!

In multiple incidents I've seen a circuit breaker both failing to provide a an adequate recovery opportunity and cutting off traffic that would have otherwise been served. Static thresholds means that it's a dilemma between letting a system overload and cutting too many requests in overprotection.

We do have much better tools to deal with excessive load and yet circuit breaker is still considered a “best practice”.

In the era of AI it should be possible to gather 3 years of experience in a week, right?

macOS Mail doesn’t have a way of zooming in for example, Cmd-+ just increases the font size. Unless plain text is used that is. Then font size becomes an attribute of presentation, rather than of the message (as it should really be).

Also, the main point is about ownership. It doesn’t mean that software engineers now have to travel to the datacenter to replace dead hard drives. This can totally be taken care of by a white glove service.

With managed software the operational responsibilities are delegated to someone else, regardless which infrastructure the software is deployed to.

The whole point of SaaS is that you don’t have to care about how the software is deployed, as the only way to interact with it is over APIs exposed over the network.

We should also ask ourselves - is the world of AGI the world we want to live in?
