Ah-mee is more correct, because Amazon Machine Images are friends. En français, bien sûr! https://twitter.com/QuinnyPig/status/1183872520300183552

Helen i’ll be off to a Postmodern Jukebox concert. They're pretty fun!

You know what would be nice, @XFINITYproducts@twitter.com? If you documented that disabling your public WiFi feature would bring down my home internet connection.

I've just made a new Metafilter post: Pictures from June 4 http://bit.ly/2MBdNLJ #mefi

I have found the most painful subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/keming/

Interesting: Gamers pissed that Blizzard punished a Hearthstone player for his 'liberate Hong Kong' remark are punishing Blizzard back by trying to get one of its products banned in China, turning a video game character into a pro-Democracy meme. https://www.polygon.com/2019/10/9/20906320/overwatch-mei-blizzard-hong-kong-protest-banned-memes

The linked article brings this home hard; Blackboard’s rep keeps saying how much CIOs will like it. At no point do they even mention the user.

Software companies can be breathtakingly clueless when there's a layer of indirection between them and their users. Everyone who's suffered through Blackboard will have the same reaction to this: try having less functionality! https://edscoop.com/how-canvas-ca…

Don’t use “guys”. http://heyguys.cc

I know, it’s hard to change habits. It scans because we’re used to it, and alternative formulations will take time.

Do it anyway.

It’s apparently my week for uncharitable reads.

Mine, too. The cloud is somebody else's computers... until they're your computers 😬

I have contributed to herd immunity.

Reposting the image with a description. This is a habit I need to get into.

Other than some wiring tidying and installing a new wifi AP at the back of the house… It looks like the #NetworkingProjectOfDOOM has been completed. All IoT devices are segregated onto their own network (“The S in IoT stands for Security”) and cables are sanely arranged!

How the fuck have we hit a world where I agree with Ted Cruz?

This is shameful. They are Americans.

FEMA said today it doesn’t have financial funding approved to build a new hospital in Vieques, Puerto Rico. The people in Vieques have been without a working hospital for 2 years. Hurricane Maria forced the closure of the old one.

Another reason that "target Kubernetes as a portability strategy" is appealing is that you get to pretend that Kubernetes is the whole world. That's still a fiction that will bite over and over again.

I’ve moved thousands of kilometers for work; I left my small city in the north of Alberta for a job, and immigrated to the US for an opportunity.

Immigration enriches everyone.

It's about time people stopped this "blow in" shite as a way of trying to invalidate their neighbours. Very few of us live all our lives in the parish we were born in. That's not how the world is any more. We don't lose our Con…
