    It’s mostly a skill issue for services that go down when USE-1 has issues in AWS - if you actually know your shit, then you don’t get these kinds of issues.

    Case in point: Netflix runs on AWS and experienced no issues during this thing.

    And yes, it’s scary that so many high-profile companies are this bad at the thing they spend all day doing


  • Agreed. If your commits are reasonably structured, rebasing is far more helpful.

    Although these days I usually opt for one ball-of-mud commit while developing the code, which is always fairly trivial to rebase - only one commit, can’t have follow-up issues - and then I redo the commit structure from scratch as a part of preparing the code for the benefit of the reviewer.







  • An interesting point - I checked, and as far as I can tell, non-citizens can be charged with treason in the U.K, so long as they are considered under the jurisdiction of the U.K - “alien residents” for example are covered, and probably temporary visitors to the country as well. It would likely be up to judicial interpretation whether attempting the coup virtually would qualify, but I’d assume it might.

    The serious take would be that this comment is too mild to qualify for treason, but one could always hope.








  • Your phone is trying to keep your battery alive. The lower the specs of the phone, then the more aggressive the OS is.

    No, apps closing between switches is not a matter of battery, it’s a core feature of Android related to the management of RAM. Whenever the OS needs more available RAM, the OS will close a backgrounded app to make those resources available. This is why it happens more frequently on low-end devices - these generally ship with less RAM.

    Some misguided vendors will limit background execution in incorrect ways in the name of saving battery, but the general thing with apps living in background is a story of RAM.

    Interestingly enough, apps are supposed to be built to cope with being closed down due to lack of RAM and then be restored seamlessly, but this is an art that is uncommonly done correctly in the Android development space. The OS support is there, though.
