You don’t think FlyingSquid had a family? I’ve immigrated twice. You think I don’t have a family?
FlyingSquid left the USA because of his family. His child was part of a group targeted by modern day conservatives. He did the most important job as a father and protected his child. He took his child to a safe country.
My email provider allows for unlimited aliases. So, while I have 600+ email addresses, emails to them all end up in the same mailbox.
I do this too. The unique email address I create for each is identifiable to the place I’m using it. This has other benefits. If an organization you created and account with sells or has a data breech you know exactly which company it was when you start receiving spam or phishing email directed to that address. This is also nice because you can “black hole” that email address and all the spam goes with it even future spam not sent yet.
I sold $1mm in stocks over the last 2 weeks.
That must have been a really hard decision especially to incur the likely $100k+ of capital gains taxes.
Poor #4 had to settle for knees.
Settle? We don’t kink shame here, sir.
They should have canceled the entire “White House Correspondents’ Dinner” and simply held a completely new event at the exact same time at the same venue with a different name, and kept the jokes at the president’s expense.
Arrest Of Elon Musk For Felony Vote Buying
YES! FINALLY!
Demanded In Wisconsin
Dude, don’t tease me like that

and sticking a hypodermic needle into an officer’s penis, according to a report.
That’s a very brave act to do to someone in building full of guns within arms reach.
“You’re on trial for shooting a co-worker to death. What is your defense?”
“He intentionally stuck a hypodermic needle in my penis”
“Case dismissed, you’re free to go.”
I don’t know much of Warhammer lore, so I had to look up tech priests:
"No longer the master of its creations, the Cult Mechanicus is enslaved to the past. It maintains the glories of yesteryear with rite, dogma and edict instead of true discernment and comprehension. For instance, even the theoretically simple process of activating a vehicle’s engine is preceded by the application of ritual oils, the burning of sacred resins and the chanting of long and complex hymns. "
Its clear to me the author of this block of text was having trouble starting his vehicle’s engine, and was pissed off when he/she was asked to put in a ticket before help would be rendered to the him/her.
Musk said. “Let the record show that I said this.”
Oh Elon, your record on “what you said” and reality has been divorced from one another for a long long time.

Our death is us joining oblivion. That’s scary to think about until you realize you were in oblivion before you were born. I have no negative view of my non-existence prior to my birth. Death will be just like that so why should I have a problem with it.
Knowing we die someday gives life meaning.
Further, the alternative to death is living forever. Now THAT sounds like hell.
So far, speaking from experience, we saved loads of money DIY’ing it, even when deploying to the cloud, and we saved loads of time, in the long run.
First, I’m glad its working for you up to now. I’ve been in similar orgs. It works great, until it doesn’t. Have you had an production outage yet from a datacenter or hardware failure yet?
Should I ask home much did your Broadcom licensing renewal cost you this year?
If you hire talented workers, you save money and time, by DIYing the approach, as long as it’s done in a sane, and controlled manner.
Talented workers that know the systems are great, and if you’ve built your own systems and processes finely tuned to your specific applications performance needs and profiles, it also means you’ve got a highly specialized infrastructure and app stack. You’ve possibly built yourself a scaling problem because the skill needed to understand and maintain your well performing one-off solution isn’t ubiquitous. As your organization’s needs scale it will be tied directly to the additional limited specialized and expensive staff needed. Again, this may not be an issue with your org today, but it may not have hit this need yet. This is the “Only time will tell” component that is so important. As in, your sample size may not be large enough to know if your org made the right decision or not yet.
Identify all of the candles that burn twice as bright, but only half as long.
My question is not contextualized against the original example in this thread. You’re welcome to create your own line of questions to them if you like.
trump did leak on TV the classified keyhole satellite photos of an Iranian rocket test. It wasn’t so much the rocket that was classified, but the release of the picture showed resolution not thought possible with spy satellites in orbit at the time. So what he did was tell all our enemies what we could see from orbit of theirs.
Future opening to federal court proceedings:
“All rise. Presiding is the honorable Elizabeth Jackson.”
“Thank you, bailiff. We’re meeting today on case number 2940184, the US vs Kreiger on the crime of drug kingpin. Before we begin, first a word from our sponsor”
“Rachet Strap! The energy drink illegal in 3 states! The drink the forbidden energy!!”
“Prosecution, you may call your first witness.”
If this were pitched as an SNL skit it would have been thrown out of the writers room for being too unbelievable.
Wise companies have limited themselves to the basics
“Wise” is subjective here. Using a cloud vendor’s implementation can yield many times more efficiency, simplicity, stability, scalability, and agility vs rolling you own. Does it come with the cost of vendor lock-in? It absolutely can. Will that make migration to another vendor difficult? It will.
So for organizations that never embraced the cloud alternatives have had to maintain their own infrastructure or use commodity solutions, as you mentioned, to deliver their IT needs. How much more was spent using a general purpose approach with higher portability to deliver the same result vs a cloud providers proprietary version? Then include the time component.
Only time will tell.
I keep going back and forth on this for myself. I believe I have a responsibility to contribute to fixing the problems here as it affects others negatively and I have even the smallest amount of power to help fix this.
