Yes!! Being part of a large org, nobody cares about the ops bit, leadership/product/dev mgrs just want features deployed!!!
It's very obvious that the sooner we can abstract all the ops away the leaner we'll be.
I use a $250 mouse + a $250 mechanical keyboard as the laptop is docked... Pretty sure nothing compares to apples track pads. At the same time sitting hunched over a laptop on a desk is sub optimal too, many do it. Point is for significantly less money a non apple device is most likely gonna get the job done and not be a disaster hardware wise. Is the Trackpad really worth $2,000?
Christchurch in NZ is hooked up with Libby and a video service just recently. It's pretty great having a solid physical library with books for the toddler/baby and the digital for me. (though apparently I'm supposed to actually read physical paper books to encourage the youngins to read as well). As a student I'd be in the school library all the time, now as an adult with kids having the public library is amazing, so glad I didn't need to buy the 60+ books we've been through so far (they wouldn't be exposed to books..)
I want this as a paid service. For example, hey there person using chrome, install this extension and let random people run tests on their website, for the time and resources used you will be paid n, ok?
Then imagine having access to real computers on real networks hit your site over whatever time horizon you want. It would be great. If this could somehow be done on mobile that would be great too (maybe in a push notification way "1x test ready to run, click here to start", app opens, does it's thing, then closes)
Awesome, this is what I had in mind for using a stealth way to manage infrastructure.
Thanks for sharing a blueprint as I'd only theorycrafted it and now I have a path to experiment with.
all of these need a false/fake entry so when adversaries compel information and you give it to them the result is useless and they have "the truth" and nothing at the same time.
https://coinlist.co wants to be an ICO platform of preference, their first go is the Filecoin ICO. Issue with them is having to be SEC compliant which makes it pretty much US only (not strictly, however dealing with everything narrows the field vs here is the address, send ETH)
I've been tuning into an episode South Park, Family Guy, American Dad or The Simpsons LIVE recently. They look like straight torrent uploads so curious how they are getting around the filters... They have ads, so money must be being made for anyone to pursue this.
Hmm, I installed sonic on Android, first screen that popped up before getting into the game was "give money to get rid of ads". So maybe install it and pay for it :)
The other thing you get with GCloud is multiple datacenters around the planet. Assuming Snap are going after the 2billion+ people not in America, this seems like an advantage to use someone else's gear. 2billion seems high, maybe it's the maximum negotiated on paper for the deal as opposed to the guaranteed?
When you have Adwords dollars pouring in it makes sense to go send out a few people to buy up fibre and land/power/water for datacenters on the down low....
