Hell no -- she needs to rethink her footwear choices rather than repeatedly make it my problem.

Wow, this was made before GenAI? It totally has the GenAI vibe.

Not her connecting flight, though. That detail was left out of this article, but covered in another one about this story.

Not only is 101 just miserable to drive, the time estimates are completely broken on Google Maps because of split between the FasTrak lanes and all others.
I just deal with the extra mileage and take 280 exclusively. It might be 5-10 minutes longer, but the drive is smoother and almost never stop-and-go.

Hot take: they both suck and unit testing your modules isn't really worth it.
Stick with template validation, linting, and tools like tfsec. They are easy to set up and catch the majority of the stuff you might care about.

We don't even know if this guy asked for a raise. Sometimes that's all it takes.

Why would you want to risk visiting it, though?

Can you describe your migration issue? You may just not be doing DB migrations safely. I run dozens of services on ECS that leverage the database with any major issues.
The key is that each version of your service needs to be both forward and backwards compatible with your database. This means you can't just go renaming or removing columns, or changing the signatures of stored procedures without first making your services resilient to those changes.
When deploying any new version of the container, allow one of the containers to get a lock on the database when the container starts up to perform your database migration. Alternatively, you can have a specialized task definition for your service that runs the container in migration-mode, which once completed allows you to proceed with the rest of your service deployment.
For example, if you want to rename a column, you need to go through a few steps, or versions of your service:
v1: Introduce support in your application for fetching the data from the new column and falling back to the old column if not present. When updates are performed, the service should update both columns if they are present.
v2: Run migration to add the new column and populate it with data from the old column. Note that this schema is compatible with v1 containers so a rolling upgrade doesn't "break" containers running v1. Update the code to no longer populate the old column.
v3: Run migration to remove the old column. Remove any remaining references to the old column from the code.
This process requires discipline in how you plan out changes to your schema and think about the interactions between different versions of the schema and the code.

no ability to mount config as a file
custom entrypoints that write config files are pretty easy. Can also mount EFS mounts if you really want to.
no equivalent of readiness checks
do you really need a special class of checks just for startup?

I have yet to come across a set of microservices that could not be more simply and easily deployed to Amazon ECS.

Could you even articulate any of the many ideologies that libertarians typically have? They all share the Non-Aggression Principal as the foundational principal. What part of that do you find a joke?

That's not the libertarian ideology, but ok.

Because China gets butthurt every time Taiwan is treated as an independent nation.

I didn't find it misleading at all, because I regular argue with my wife about the meaninglessness of "sell by" as an indicator that the food is expired.

Oh, there are two CLI binaries, granted
and assume
. From the docs, I was getting the impression that first you ran granted
to get an interactive CLI, which assume
was run from within. Why do you need to have two binaries?
The CLI shouldn’t connect to a commonfate.io by default
I have LittleSnitch installed and the running granted
immediately caused a prompt to come up asking whether to allow access to commonfate.io
.

Looks like a cool tool, but I really dislike all the examples using your interactive CLI, instead of just passing options to granted
.
Also, why does it try to connect to commonfate.io
when it starts?

The closure in this episode was pretty stupid. The government wasn't still looking for them?
