Some business models are only based on the original corruption that AWS actually is. The pricing complexity alone is worse than a shell game. And then we have to pay "experts" to manage that MADE UP complexity??

I have been thinking about this a lot this week. The last 3 days or so I have been working on setting up new Postgres servers with replication running over Wireguard and migrating existing connections/apps, which requires they become wg peers. I worked this out with Claude Code, but I ended up making about 15 versions of the plan file to do it. This happened as I started executing it and I found problems with the plan, details left out, steps out of sync. It got pretty exhausting, but I wanted my plan to end up representing not just execution, but also good documentation on how to reproduce everything. I thought about the old days were I would follow a guide like this, https://autoize.com/migrating-... it is a lot easier to understand this at a glance and certainly gives me the concepts of Wiregaurd a lot faster than learning them via Claude mistakes. However, it also leaves out a GREAT DEAL that is actually important to my setup. Overall, the end result and the documentation I made is much better than if I had followed some combination of existing articles this way. Because frankly, I wouldn't have made the documentation if I had taken this off the shelf path. Claude Code did some unbelievably stupid things especially in regards to debugging networking issues, however, it also pointed me towards a clue that when my local Wifi router changed(I have two) that caused my Windows peer to break. Of course Claude kept digging at my Windows firewall :) So frankly I probably didn't gain any speed on this approach, but I did actually do a better job. The plan file on Google Docs is 21 pages now. But I can easily expand my start here to be a far better (cheaper, more secure, better performance) alternative to something like AWS RDS.

You were from a different culture but you are too limited to understand that, so you blame the tool.

Probably doesn't have anyone left who can appreciate this. Like Regular Expressions used to be, frustrating for many, copied by most, but powerful in the right hands. It is also nice to have someone thinking more about others vs how they can profit.

When is Slashdot going to update its ancient mod system? Both of those are great suggestions.

Blame that shit. Not testing or whatever.

This seriously deserves an Insightful!!!

Are people still managing multiple users on their Linux machines? Why? Are these users other processes that we are pretending are separate and safe (so called lower privileges on the system) as if these exploits haven't been around since UNIX existed.

Saying waterfall. Stop using the word. Stop pretending it means something.

I actually lost an AI project for that exact reason. The automation wasn't worth the risk and people are cheap.

There is no information about what actually happened. Even given all of the issues people have pointed out, it seems clear there is some agenda with this that is not at all about tech. I want to see the fucking log of what happened, what was the person doing right before this big delete? Or was there not even a person present? I sit on Claude Code's ass all day long and hit escape every time I see it doing something stupid. Was this guy getting a coffee when the console starting saying, oh lest clean up this old data? All of the comments about WTF it was working on production to start with!?!?!? are fine, but there is still more..

Just as good of a chance as with Linux :)

It was fake open source to begin with. Try to actually use it for something and you run into its "licencing" restrictions. So I think this may well be an attempt to get some attention. It isn't actually that big of a change.

HA HA HA

Cause yeah, popular is how you should always make arch decisions. And also WTH would anyone use Python for a serious system that requires performance? Python brings us back to that days of BASIC, "oh but you can call functions written in other languages that are fast" It is an order of magnitude thing too, not just a gripe from some benchmarking basement dwellers.
