If you are using the Docker single container deployment using the official image (sourcegraph/server) you will be affected, as that image is Enterprise free tier.

----

Hello,

We will be implementing changes to the Sourcegraph free tier on February 22, 2023 with the release of Sourcegraph 4.5. Details on the new free tier can be found here [1]. The changes are:

The maximum number of private repositories that can be synced to each instance will be reduced from unlimited to 1. The free tier will no longer support SSO/SAML.

As an existing free tier user, we’d like to offer you a license key to keep your legacy free tier plan with the ability to sync unlimited private repositories. If you would like a license key to keep your plan, please submit this form by February 22 and we will gladly send you one.

Please note that without a license key, your instance will automatically move to the new free tier plan if you upgrade to Sourcegraph 4.5+. Instances that stay on version 4.4 or older will not be impacted.

Best,

The Sourcegraph Team

In the same breath where Biden calls himself a "proud pro-labor president," he calls on Congress to break a strike. [1] The hypocrisy will make your head spin.

What's the incentive for the railroad companies to bargain in good faith with the unions instead of deliberately stalling and waiting for the federal government to break the strike preemptively? All downside risk has been removed.

Biden publicly backed the unions, waited for the midterm elections to finish, and then switched sides and backed the railroad companies.

Democrats backstabbing labor will fracture an otherwise solidly blue voting block in a time when Dems are winning races by single-digit percentage points.

No party in America supports workers' rights. Dems will say they do, but when push comes to shove, there is no one.

Backblaze S-1 IPO 5 years ago

I was under the impression that their business was $70/year to backup your whole computer (all drives, completely managed). Their backup service grew 23% yoy, so I wouldn't call it in decline.

Can you go into why Google Drive is a better alternative? I can see 2 TB for $100/yr, but I don't think the products are exactly the same.

Backblaze S-1 IPO 5 years ago

Backblaze makes 73% of their revenue from computer backups. I do not see how the Cloudflare announcement will eat into that.

I would agree that B2 is their high growth area, but I do not think Cloudflare directly opposes B2.

Leaving Google 5 years ago

A wonderful quote on your line of thinking --

“When I was poor and complained about inequality they said I was bitter; now that I'm rich and I complain about inequality they say I'm a hypocrite. I'm beginning to think they just don't want to talk about inequality.”

― Russell Brand

I don't think it's shady marketing. The company is composed of several prominent software engineers (eg Brad Fitzpatrick of memcached fame). I think many folks on HN (myself included) are interested to see what they are working on. Especially as Brad left Google to work on it.

Because a housing crisis leads to skyrocketing home values. They benefit from increased housing prices.

Further, any countering increase in property taxes is dampened by Prop 13. So there is very little reason to sell and cash-in vs just holding on for longer as the problem worsens.

When you are a homeowner with an expensive house, you don't want more homes built. That will increase supply and lower price.

It's worth pointing out that for the vast majority of people doctors != insurance. The payer is not the provider.

The refrain of "people like their health insurance" deliberately conflates the two. People like their doctors, not their insurance. Doctors accept multiple insurance companies.

Complaining about some people having more money than you just screams envy and childishness.

Where did he do that?

No, they really are not. One is driven by envy and petty jealousy, and the other is motivated by a legitimate concern that someone might be living in poverty.

Screw off with the ad hominem. It doesn't suffice in lieu of a point.

Complaining about some people having more money than you just screams envy and childishness.

So by your logic if you are poor and mention billionaires and income inequality then you are envious and full of petty jealousy. Therefore, only people who are well-off are able to even bring the subject up without being labeled as such. People who are well off have a vested interest in not bringing the subject up, as they maintain a comparative advantage with a cheap, underpaid supply of labor in their economy.

Every now and then, however, a well-to-do and handsomely paid software engineer with a conscious will bring up the subject. In which case, you can simply move the goalpost and label him as having petty jealously since they are probably not a billionaire.

In your framework, an economy with fatal inequalities will not be fixed. That's how you get revolutions.

The surface line of products were actually a pleasure to use for me. I would say that the reason that they are not catching on is that Ms has utterly terrible marketing for it.

Honestly, whoever though that viewers want to see a commercial with a bunch of college kids clicking and clacking the stand on a table in unison instead of showing the actual strengths of the surface being used needs to be fired.

As a kid, you have a distorted view of reality and your prefrontal cortex is not fully developed. That is to say your morals, planning, and judgement is not fully developed. This was part of SCOTUS [outlawing capital punishment for minors](http://www.apa.org/monitor/jun05/jn.aspx).

The Prefrontal cortex is key to what we'd consider a person's personality. The seminal case of this would be [Phineas Gage](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phineas_Gage), who had his prefrontal cortex (along with most of his frontal lobe) destroyed. Despite a hole in his head, he miraculously survived. Without his prefrontal cortex, he was no longer inhibited by judgement, shame, or morals. He didn't ignore it, he just simply didn't feel it. A man went from being honest and upstanding to constantly thieving and telling lies.

Since the pre frontal cortex does not fully mature until around the age of 25, I would argue the 13 years this child does, in fact, not know the full extent of what he did.

While I was attending SC '12 in Salt Lake City last November, my daughter emailed to tell me that the boys in her class were harassing her. "They told me to get in the kitchen and make them sandwiches," she said.

Even if you think the parent is overstepping their bounds here, I would rather a parent be too concerned as oppose to not being concerned at all. Double so that he is in the tech sector while we are facing the huge gender issue. If the teacher is not doing their job stopping the harassment and thereby enforcing the stereotype, then perhaps is should be spelled out.
