Where are you crossing? Around here the population on both sides of the border are pretty indistinguishable, except for accent.

Game development is a very specific use case, and NOT what most people think of when talking about devs vs ops.

I’m talking enterprise software and SaaS companies, which would be a MUCH larger part of the tech industry then games.

There are a large number of devs who think public cloud as infrastructure is ALWAYS the right choice for cost and availability for example… Which in my experience is actually backwards, because legacy software and bad developers fail to understand the limitations of this platforms, that it’s untrustworthy by design, and outages insue.

In these scenarios understanding how the code interacts with actual hardware (network, server and storage or their IaaS counterparts) is like black magic to most devs… They don’t get why their designs are going to fall over and sink into the swamp because of their nievete. It works fine on their laptop, but when you deploy to prod and let customer traffic in it becomes a smoking hole.

“IT people” here, operations guy who keeps the lights on for that software.

It’s been my experience developers have no idea how the hardware works, but STRONGLY believe they know more then me.

Devops is also usually more dev than ops, and it shows in the availability numbers.

Competition is great, a company that can’t produce a quality product and ships a CAR with beta level software that can’t update OTA is NOT competition.

The auto industry is highly unfavorable to startups, the competition you want will come from the old ICE OEMs.

Because AI is the new because blockchain.

Political extremists, such as yourself, are exhausting.

It’s like talking to a religious fanatic, there’s no reasoning with someone who’s made a decision based on emotion instead of logic.

So why dont we have tarrifs on the ones that are produced in Mexico too?

Mexico is not China.

It is in our best interest to have a stable and economically improving neighbor on our southern border.

Your all or nothing / black or white view of the world is extremely childish & naive. Simple solutions to complex problems are just how politicians manipulate those who don’t want to think to hard. Stop pretending that global trade policy is a simple solution arena & try thinking a little harder.

The GameCube being your favorite console has a lot more to do with your age, than anything to do with the console.

Same reason the NES is my all time favorite.

I’m not pretending.

I’m pointing out the flaw it the whining.

There’s a lot of should and shouldn’t statements that are just wish fulfillment and not reality.

Now that you’re done bitching about the housing crisis…what’s your actual proposed solution?

Should we take the home from the guy renting you that apartment so you can have it? Force lower rents, leaving him unmotivated to bother renting it?

What’s your point beyond rents are too high? We all know there’s a problem, how do you propose we fix it, because landlords aren’t the root of the issue but this whole thread seems to want to pretend they are.

Ok, then don’t.

Go find another place to live.

I’m well aware of both, been in the industry for over 20 years.

But you still don’t seem to comprehend the cost or difficulty of the change.

Frankly the support options don’t seem very good either.

Deployment is not even half the battle, ongoing support is where the troubles really come out.

The staffing, the network and storage changes.

The suggestion to just use KVM and ansible is rather tone def.

Sounds like someone with limited experience in the industry, honestly.

You’ve not seen a wide variety of “shops” then, clearly.

Constructive dismissal

Toyota is a bad bet when it comes to EVs.

They clearly have no interest in selling them.

It’s almost like, in such a huge country, there exist people with different tastes.

I, an American, went to India once. The hotel restaurant had a breakfast buffet. On one side was a glorious Indian spread. The other was some nauseating English breakfast spread, with like baked beans (that’s for summer BBQs not breakfast!).

Anyway me and my buddy head straight to the good side, when the hotel staff woman came running over to warn us that it was too spicy. She gently walked us to the gross English food. We confirmed with her, numerous times, that the Indian food was very spicy. We then dug in on the eatible food (the Indian side) and made a friend with the hotel staff lady.

It was somewhat spicy, but amazing.

Some Americans think black pepper is too spicy, some eat ghost peppers as a light snack, I am in between.

Red hat, 25 years ago learned to recompile the kernel to make my sound card/modem work.

Because it’s shit.

If I apt install an app, I expect it NOT to be a snap. I want it to use shared libraries, not bring its own along. They hide from you that they are installing the snap not deb package.

Then you run into all sorts of permissions issues accessing the filesystem from the snap app… Because snap is rather broken in this regard.

Functionally snap is a worse solution then deb, but I guess it’s easier on the developer/maintainer as you don’t get lost in shared dependincy hell.

I feel snaps should be an option if you need cutting edge version of a software that can’t use your shared libs, but never the default install method.

It was always useless dopamine exploiting garbage.

It served to pump up peoples egos, feed narcissists & mostly not do anything of any real value. It was always a place that would drag random individuals through the virtual streets as some sort of cathartic virtue signaling stoning event for ‘wrong thinking’ or ‘wrong speaking’.

What Musk has done to it has obviously made it worse, but it was never a net gain for society to have something like Twitter.

It was always a very problematic entity, outside of anyone’s political leanings or whatnot.
