I’d like to understand how self managing all the lower level components abstracted by the cloud is saving on headcount. Care to math that out for us?

I get you that it’s easy to over-provision in the cloud, but you can’t return an on-prem server. A cloud VM, just shut it down and you’re done.

AWS talks about minimizing undifferentiated heavy lifting as a reason to adopt managed services and I find that largely to be true. The majority of companies aren’t differentiating their services via some low-level technology advantage that allows them to cost less. It’s a different purchasing model, a smoother workflow, or a unique insight into data. The value an organization provides to customers should be the primary focus of the business, the rest is a means to sharpen that focus.

The DNC needs to be risking jail like their opposition in order to be effective. Their GOP counter parts showed how effective that could be and have doubled down on it.

Trying to be strong in the face of adversity requires real risk of consequences. Everything the DNC does is so meticulously calculated to minimize risk all they have is posturing. Speed of execution beats the best planned but half implemented strategies.

Fail faster, take more risk, fucking act like lives are on the line and don’t worry about which lobbyist isn’t going to call you back after you inadvertently nuke their shit.

Or even phivetons.

Nope. In the US we have a system enshrined in state laws that cemented a layer of middlemen between auto manufacturers and consumers. These middlemen are called dealerships. They typically run showrooms, sales, and service for one manufacturer and hold a stock of vehicles on site.

These guys made so much money fucking consumers over they’re universally distrusted. “Car salesman” is a dirty profession in the US. Because they don’t really add value to the process and had a ton of money, they lobbied aggressively to protect their fiefdoms to state governments and successfully made it illegal in many states for a manufacturer to sell directly to consumers.

Awful system. I hate buying a car because of it and go to extraordinary lengths to lie and cheat their system when engaging with them, as they’re doing the same by default.

up your block size bro 💪 get them plates stacking 128KB+ a write and watch your throughput gains max out 🏋️ all the ladies will be like🙋‍♀️. Especially if you get those reps sequentially it’s like hitting the juice 💉 for your transfer speeds.

“Our industry is built around devaluing human life for profit. Why aren’t these people valuing our lives?”

It’s like a sketch comedy show. They can’t be this dumb.

Flail until the light leaves their eyes.

Comments like this is why I come to Red…Lemmy.

Imagine never hearing the word “No.” as a complete sentence ever again in your life.

This feels like opening the Overton window.

But how will they know what movies to watch or what’s the latest in fashion?

Can’t even get HL3 on an alternate timeline.

Hey Ralph can you get that post-it from the bottom of your keyboard?
