I used to read joelonsoftware religiously back in 2000 and it’s pretty funny seeing this post again in 2024.

I always miss the live Discord call and never realized they were published to YT! Thanks for the notice.

Yes but this is an article about said production deployment. Which should be more interesting.

For some reason I was expecting it to be more interesting than just being all-in on AWS services. Its fine and a reasonable approach but kind of a yawn in my opinion.

WSL v1 hasn’t gone anywhere. It likely won’t until they fix the issues with v2 and VPNs.

I do not have what it takes to start a company! Namely motivation and business sense.

I wholeheartedly agree with this but want to add that the 80/15/5 split aren’t set in stone. It’s more like risk tolerance. The more you spend on the riskier activities (not exactly what you’re asked to do), the higher the chance of failure but the greater the reward. You can drive your team or organization in a completely different direction.

How was this legal? Missing a connecting flight means you’re detained and forced to buy a new ticket? Dispute that charge for not providing service as paid for.

I expand this idea a tad. 4-8 tabs per window. But then I organize tabs based on context. Then I can switch around contexts and still have my handful of tabs open.

Sometimes that means 1 window, sometimes that means 4 windows. Just depends on what I’m doing.

You are correct but I don’t think that invalidates the point that if you want safe abortions you need to make them legal and regulated.

I have no idea why they chose pills on the Internet but I know that more people will do it themselves if they can’t legally go to a healthcare provider.

One assumes they would have taken care of it during the legal timeframe. Not relevant if they didn’t in this case.

There’s also other options still by going to other states, but the point is that by making it illegal you’re increasing the chances of it being unsafe.

But anyway, that’s as far as I’m wading into that subject here. Don’t feel like getting into politics so much as practicalities.

Just to clarify one possible misconception, the two ends would be the mother and daughter’s phones in this case. Meta shouldn’t have the key to decrypt accessible to them.

You’re absolutely correct that it can be decrypted on either end but Meta should resist putting a backdoor in their app that allows this. If no other reason than it compels them to be in the middle of this criminal case.

Also Facebook Messenger already enables this (https://www.facebook.com/help/messenger-app/1084673321594605) but it’s not the default. It should be.

This is just basic privacy and for sure won’t protect you from a focused government attack but it’s a start.

The way to look at this is that this is what happens when you don’t have safe and legal medical abortions.

Also this is one of the reasons why e2e encryption is so important. Meta had to comply with a warrant and wouldn’t have had to comply if it was impossible for them to.

> it is a deep subject with lots of unintuitive and frustrating corners, and you won't pick it up in a day or without scars.

Do you have any examples of a corner that might give you a scar? I’ve heard this a lot but haven’t experienced it myself.

I’ve spent a number of years working primarily with cloud foundry. Started working with k8s in the past year and I’ve mostly found it straight forward. But I’m far from an expert yet.

The word Uber has existed in English speaking countries for much longer than the ride sharing service. Using that spelling doesn’t affiliate you with the company. The opposite actually as the company used a common word.

They surely could build what they released in a matter of months, but my guess is the jumpstart Meta had came from the Fediverse and not Twitter. There’s many similarities and they have plans of Activitypub interoperability in the near future.

Also can’t imagine Meta’s HR/Legal would be that dumb. Easy to avoid putting Twitter people on Threads team.

Is suc scaleable? I didn’t see any discussion of managing conversations across a cluster of ssh-capable hosts and you’re not going to support more than a few thousand with a single ssh server.

Of the three (Slack, Teams, Discord) I actually prefer Discord. Its the easiest to use, the fastest, etc. Too bad that any corporation of size uses Teams or Slack.

Can you explain how it’s not true? I’ve personally run software from the 90s. I am not a myth!
