A lot of these are visual-heavy tests that often require first person sight to confirm results. Considering GLM isn’t multimodal, that might explain why it did better on the calculator question and not much else.

Wait…what? You have a fully internal service and you dont have an internal DNS server? I guess those exist in theory, but not in practice. :)

If you have a heavy enough tech stack to run fully internal services, than you can also run an internal DNS service (even pihole is enough) and load internal only entries there.

Or add everything to your hosts file if you have a central config service.

Split brain =/= done right.

This introduces all sorts of aberrant behavior. Most notably that clients will get different responses depending on their query and route that you now have to test for. It also is a “silent” deviation for audiences that may not be aware of.

I’m not sure what problem that is trying to be solved here? That the OP wanted internal users seeing a different site than external users? Or using a different route in? In both those cases the correct user behavior is to use a different DNS record.

He’s a lightning rod only because some people get unnecessarily triggered by facts that don’t fit their world view.

Containers is often the reason. You start a container and you are immediately pulling in a quarter to half a gig or more (often the latter).

“Doctor killer” for a reason.

There needs to be a distinction - because people are making an honest conflation - between distributed computing and cloud computing. The list in the article applies to both, but the limits and performance variability can apply quicker - and with more effect - in the cloud.

But it’s relevant whether we like it or not. This will affect the price of goods, salaries of workers, everything.

What, do people not remember Katrina? That was the sign to move, and it was 20 years ago.

Yeah it’s a sad state. But it’s also not worth putting oneself in harm’s way. Report it to the state authorities (not all of them are crooked). Or try another jurisdiction, like the local police.

This was incredibly dangerous of the victim. In another version of events, the officer could have shot him and plausibly (unfortunately) claimed the victim had a vendetta against the cop for arresting him.

IAM isn’t even really the most painful dependency. Route53 is. The control plane only runs out of use1.

Better make sure the only DNS operations you run during an outage are data plane queries and health check failovers.

Are you saying F/G AND any line serving less affluent areas? Because if not, the G (save for maybe 2-3 stops in Bed-Stuy) is all affluent neighborhoods.

Why is this getting downvoted? How is this any less ridiculous sounding than the multitude of other, ever-shifting reasons Trump gave for starting the war.

IPs are notoriously unreliable for identity pinning, particularly in this age of CGNAT.

If they can’t or don’t want cc numbers (makes sense considering how painful PCI guidelines are anyway) does that mean they need to rely on more tools from the processors or user accounts maintained by the merchant themselves?
master_crab

I always wondered about this. Do companies tie the credit card to an identity to block or do they just block the cc number?

If the latter, seems like a small friction point for a consumer. Given how often cc numbers change and how many an (American) consumer has, this won’t block anything unless you are charging back more than once every few months.

Declaring someone an enemy does not automatically lead to war. America considered the USSR an enemy of democracy for 50 years. They never went directly to blows.

For production Postgres, i would assume it’s close to almost no effect?

If someone is running postgres in a serious backend environment, i doubt they are using Ubuntu or even touching 7.x for months (or years). It’ll be some flavor of Debian or Red Hat still on 6.x (maybe even 5?). Those same users won’t touch 7.x until there has been months of testing by distros.
