Here's our GCP spend for the past month: https://imgur.com/a/VVJTSKx. Note that does not include a separate AWS cluster that we are migrating jobs too.
A large chunk of this comes from the nature of distributed tests. We need to reproduce the environment, spin up compute, etc. We do have a large problem with flaky tests on the project as well. Whether that's timeouts, memory/cpu consumption creep over time, loads of other things. We talk about how one day we'd like to get to the granulairty of being able to go to a SIG and say, "this flaky test of yours is costing the project $x in retries. Please dedicate some resources to fix it".
How we distribute the artifacts is a whole different conversation. The container world is unique in that voluntary mirrors are not as possible as with linux packages and other binaries.
Back when I was at DigitalOcean they were laying off/firing people from the company but not announcing any departures. You'd just go to message someone and their Slack account was deactivated. This was over the course of several weeks. I built a Slack bot to post when accounts got deactivated and learned of some new departures well before those impacted actually did.
I never bothered with the myQ bit and instead sacrificed one of the garage door opener remotes by wiring the button up to a relay (z-wave by Zooz) that I zip tied to the scaffold. It's worked great for the past 4 years in Home Assistant.
denhac is alive and well! We had our 15th anniversary party earlier this month and recently crossed 350 members. We're entirely volunteer run with no paid employees.
I currently serve as vice-chair of the board. I joined right before COVID and my focus has been helping get policies and processes in place to continue to help us scale. We've seen pretty rapid growth post COVID and are seeing ~10 new members a month.
Happy to answer any questions (when I wake up).
Be sure to stop and say hi If you're ever in Denver, CO!
I recently gave a talk on this and agree. While it was fun to learn, the difference between oauth and oidc isn't clear. Especially with what I've been referring to as oidc "wave 2" - machine to machine authentication without OAuth seemingly involved at all.
My partner and I just drove from Denver to NYC in a Model 3. We stopped using any sort of "autopilot" in the middle of Kansas when it kept randomly slamming on the breaks on an empty I-70 with clear skies in broad daylight.
This is my dream. Being able to use Fleet/JetBrains's backend as an LSP/DAP for Neovim. It sounds like the architecture is there with Fleet. Please JetBrains friends!
Colorado resident here. Maybe companies will start to take this seriously now that more states are passing similar laws. My go to response to recruiter spam for the past 1.5 years has been "Do you have Colorado Equal Pay for Equal Work Act compliant job listings" to which they usually don't reply. The majority of "US Remote" posts I see don't include this information but the ones that do are interesting data points.
I've turned just about every knob and kernel parameter I can, only use the USB C expansion cards, kernel is 5.18.12, and my Samsung 980 Pro is on the latest firmware (5B2QGXA7) so I look forward to what the 12th Gen board can do.
I've had my 11th gen Framework for ~ 5 months now and I really want to love it but I've stopped recommending it to others because of the battery issues.
The biggest problem is that it drains 1-2% per hour in deep sleep on Linux. That means if you leave it asleep in your bag after work it will be between 15-30% lower when you go to use it the next morning. People on the forums[0] are even seeing up to a 4% per hour drain. I don't know what is common with other laptops but I can't say I've ever had to think about sleep drain before.
I've just ordered the 12th gen board upgrade with fingers crossed it helps but really consider going back to a ThinkPad X1 Carbon.
I've always thought that the Missionaria Protectiva was coolest concept in Dune. The "religious engineering".
The idea that over thousands of years the Bene Gesserit have seeded fake prophecy and religion throughout the universe to "primitive worlds". A Bene Gesserit visiting one of these worlds is trained to fulfill these prophecies and basically weaponize the locals.
I don't know why it blows my mind but it does. Has modern scifi used this idea anywhere?
I've always described what I do as marketing for developers at the end of the day. Developers typically have the thickest bullshit shields and know immediately when they are interacting with someone that isn't technically credible - say at a conference expo booth.
I've personally had very little involvement with sales over the years and have mostly operated at the top of the funnel. Most (from my experience) DevRel teams actually sit under a marketing org.
