The sub-service at IBM cloud I worked on had an insanely small error budget such that pages were nearly constant. On call was hell week until a few of us insisted on fixing the issues. The "few" of us were contractors. The employees seemed more than willing to just let the pages continue.
But for whatever reason it never became that mainstream
Syntax. Syntax is the reason. It's too foreign to be picked up quickly by the mass of developers that already know a C style language. I would also argue that it's not only foreign, it's too clunky.
I believe it was an ancient ServiceNow incantation that all the current employees couldn't seem to hunt down.
I did, multiple times. I was a contractor. I was the only one on my team of contractors whose account was screwed up. There seemed to be no priority to do anything there. One of many many reasons I left when I could.
I worked for IBM Cloud about 6+ years ago. While there, we had to connect to a Softlayer VPN to get into our Jira instance. My VPN account and Jira account never got provisioned so I couldn't connect nor see the Jira board. My team-mates couldn't even assign a ticket to me b/c of this. They would just put my initial's in the ticket summary and send me a slack of the details.
It was right before I left that we got our own Jira instance. This was all around the time of the Red Hat acquisition. I remember the announcement b/c we used SuSE for everything IIRC.
It could even be outsourced and then a small contract for maintenance.
Yeah, those people we outsourced to happen to work at AWS.
Not the same form factor but here you go: https://system76.com/desktops/thelio-astra-a1.1-n1/configure
Neat, I wonder if https://star-catcher.com/ could provide power.
That was painful to watch.
I worked on a telecom codebase that dated back to 1985. Similar experiences. Was wild to think of contributing to something that was almost as old as me.
Depends on the database. Microsoft SQL Server typically uses the PK as the clustering index. This dictates the order the table data is stored on disk. If you row PK is random you're going to have write latency and a fragmented index.
Hopefully it will force Apple to compete again and improve Safari.
1998 was the pinnacle of software development. VB6 composing off the shelf COM components purchased form a catalog sent in the physical mail.
Desktop apps were still a thing. The web was simple. ASP or some CGI scripts. Perfection.
Depending where you are, Colin and calling might be pronounced roughly the same.
Yeah, but they also use the Pipeline features to build and deploy changes.
I have a 16" M1 MBP. Never had this issue. Connected to a OWC TB4 dock with 2 monitors. I have to use Amphetamine to keep it from going to sleep.
Undocking/docking works fine. Perhaps you have some process running that is preventing sleep.
You missed the joke. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=a6iW-8xPw3k
Do you remember the Weezer “Buddy Holly” video that was included to show off the multimedia features? Hilariously small resolution by today’s standards.
Windows was made in the floppy era, not CD era. I still remember picking up my release day copy of windows 95. It was on several floppies.
It does have GC but that is not the point being made.
I believe the point the author is making is that other languages provide better safety than C and have faster compile times than Rust, therefore Rust should be able to improve its compile times.
Was this written by AI? I stopped after the second paragraph. Too much cognitive load.
So smalltalk?
Pedantry incoming: Intel processors are also made of silicon.
"Apple Silicon" is just a way to say chips designed by Apple vs a 3rd party like Intel.
The instructions are Arm vs x86. This has nothing to do with the underlying substrate of silicon.
Knew what that link was without clicking.
In the 90s we didn’t use the term SaaS. It was ASP back then, Application Service Provider.
I've had this Thunderbolt Doc for over a month now and I love it. https://www.owcdigital.com/products/thunderbolt-dock
The problem isn't that it's open world, it's that there is zero guidance. There are no quests markers, no quest log, anything. The most you get is the ability to put markers on the map.
Well, a virus replicates by forcing your cells to make more of the virus. Just sayin'.
I think OPs point is that Android allows you to use an app other than the stock app to send SMS, Apple does not.
My daughter and all her friends in middle school would have to disagree with you here.
