I used Rails in 2009~2010 and was not a fan, even compared to boring Java with Spring. I muted DHH long ago because he's been insufferable even before his anti-woke cabal. His keynote is incredibly rude towards his own community, but also extremely funny. I'll take the win. 🙂

Checking out Grokipedia on RCS since I know a thing or two about the topic: > ... carriers like those using Google Jibe hubs routinely inspecting decrypted payloads to enforce policies, as confirmed in deployment analyses where TLS alone proved insufficient against endpoint access by providers.

@quarkus.io afaik you're the biggest project encouraging the use of Jib. Google has just abandoned Kaniko and is doing less than the bare minimum maintaining Jib, with bugs and PRs left untouched for more than a year. A fork governed by people who care about community contributions would be nice.

Yes macOS, I want to use the keyboard and mouse that have been connected to this Mac daily for the past two years.

I never understood the stance "the issue isn't Jira but how it's configured". If a tool enables and encourages such bad practices, it's definitely at fault.

I had a little USD balance at my Swiss broker and I thought I could outsmart IBKR doing an ACH transfer instead of playing the SWIFT fees roulette, but they returned the funds and it cost me $25 in fees. 😔 It must come from a US bank and they really check. 😅

To add insult to the YAML brain injury, the fact some tools specifically expect .yml or .yaml instead of working with either extension is infuriating. 🫠

Xavier Niel calling Musk an asshole is another episode of "the worst people you know are all fighting" but for people who don't know French billionaires, at least Niel is genuinely funny when roasting people on Twitter.

Both Jib and Kaniko seem semi-abandoned by Google, because nobody needs to build OCI images on Kubernetes I guess? 😐

There's probably a lesson in Silo where the IT department enables self-preservation and authoritarian power, while holding critical knowledge and employing the people who can figure it out and topple the system. 🤔

MAGAts realizing Elon is gonna eat their face is extremely funny but let me share a personal anecdote. Some have asked "why aren't there more European H-1Bs"? I'm unsure it's true in proportion, and remember that Europeans can get a green card within 2/3 years while Indians need a multiple of that.

Hello friends in Japan. Do I know anyone using ＋メッセージ? Are mobile operators encouraging subscribers towards Google Messages lately? Did they communicate when iOS 18 would support RCS in Japan? @reibitto.bsky.social @kto.so @xuwei-k.bsky.social maybe?

I never understood the positioning of the first Pixel Tablet. It should be $100 cheaper than the iPad not $100 over. It's insane how bad Google's hardware strategy is after all these years.

Google has canceled development of the Pixel Tablet 2, a source tells Android Authority. The Pixel Tablet 3 may still be coming, though.
