I agree understanding how memory allocation works, but not sure I would agree that understanding how to _improve_ a basic hashing function is very important.

Echoing the other comment that quadlet is the way to go here

I use Postgres as a queue with SELECT FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED. You can easily spin up whatever state around the jobs you want to.

VPC sharing is the sleeper here. You can do cross account networking all in the same VPC and skip all the expensive stuff.

as long as your VPCs aren't too big, yea.

Shared vpcs can get pretty big. Even if you approach the NAU limit you can use privatelink or TGW to have more large shared vpcs.

If you are exhausting an entire VPC I’d be pretty impressed!

Used to work at nflx, biiiiig headaches

How does NGINX fit into that though?

I am using a bash script on my vps to get a wildcard certificate and just scp the cert to my other reverse proxies. Some using nginx but some Caddy or traefik

I don’t agree. There is a definite shift around health perception

It’s not negative, it’s accurate. The playbook is well known and users should be informed.

I don't know much about the space, but is there any incentive against companies like Reddit or Google hunting for accidental clicks by making the ads look exactly like 'normal' elements? There are so many examples like Reddit, GMail, etc.

To some extent. Enough of it and ROI on a click drops below what they’re charging to deliver it. I’m sure they adjust to stay just over that threshold.

On what basis do you think nobody on the team understands DoE?

People are evaluating this from a cold perspective to see if the system is working as designed or not.

Hopefully decency reduces the necessary price a little.
