I did this a few years ago (sans plugin) and correlated weather to velocity and WIP (Jira) for our development team. I was disappointed to find no meaningful correlation.

It’s 4 years old.

Paywalled. Search Google for the title “How Amazon blew Alexa’s shot to dominate AI, according to more than a dozen employees who worked on it”

Down by the river.

Couldn’t this just as easily be a front end to an object store like s3 - without the need for mongodb?

Does anyone know how the large datacenters in Iceland are faring?

I know that most of the big ones are north east (near the international airport in Keflavík).

They were really popular for crypto miners, but have been moving into HPC very rapidly. I’d assume there is a ton of extremely expensive equipment less than 10-15 miles from where all this activity is.

I checked the internet archive (wayback machine) and don't see that the AUP has changed significantly in recent months. While I continue to disagree with PayPal's stance and ambiguous language, the article led me to believe that they'd snuck it back in. I don't see anything mentioning "mis-information" in the AUP, but there are still plenty of completely subjective language in the document.

It seems to be this garbage has been the same the whole time.

CERNs openstack documentation.

Running Ubuntu (and most other os’s support this) I opt for different desktops for different contextual work - and I keep my sound turned down when I’m focused. I find that it minimizes my cognitive switching costs, but is still easy to switch when I choose.

CERNs OpenStack documentation is pretty terrific. Wish for profit cloud providers had as good.

I work for a company who has purchased iPods for years to deploy a LOB application that uses a specific sled for the iPod with a barcode reader. We buy 100s per year once the batteries expand. Gonna take a lot of developer effort to rewrite.

Are there any suitable open source or on premises competitors to Jira that also support service desk functionality?

Siri… run script jira__mark_for_for_delete.sh

> Ok, do you want to run jira__purge_marked_for_delete.sh

<<garbled>>

> Ok. Running script.

An old plumber friend wished he’d specialized. His idea was 1) live in a college town with tons and tons of student or vacation rentals (we already did) and 2) just do water heaters. 24 hour service and mark up for unscheduled installations.

Easy, clean, indoor work (generally) that you can get really good and you can pretty much name your price because everybody freaks when they don’t have hot water or it is leaking.

Lack of service desk in other applications has always been what keeps our org on Jira (on premises). Anyone have any suggestions on deeply integrating service desk tickets with engineering tasks?

This.

There are numerous accounts of illegal activity at hotels, hostels, government sanctioned housing, college rental properties, and any privately owned, leased property, but no one, ever has been held accountable for illegal behavior (like domestic violence, illicit drugs, underage drinking, etc), so why should a SaaS?

I can’t think of a single thing I own that I feel this way about. Yet, I feel like I spend and spend on the things that don’t actually inspire me.

Is there an inverse relationship between good stewardship/financial maturity and the number of lines or code I commit? Feels like it.

Ummm. California.

Pushover

Unfortunate that the links to the code for this no longer exist... http://info.cern.ch/hypertext/WWW/Daemon/Oracle/Overview.htm...

The title meta tag said “alternative to ansible” and I thought, “why in the world?!?”. Must have been a typo.

Who keeps Docker hub?

I may be completely missing something, but I was under the impression that floating ice has zero impact on sea levels - a unique characteristic of water. Ice floating in water in a cup already at the top won’t overflow when it melts. It seems like only land-supported ice sheets would have any impact at all anyway. Where were they getting the 6 foot rise in the first place? The violent water displacement when the cliff falls?

In college we had a similar scenario when a UPS delivery truck making it's routine stop at a fairly consistent time each day caused connectivity to degrade. If I remember correctly, the solution was discovered following a UPS strike in the late 90s.
