While I understand the post, it misses the easy mark, showing there are alternatives. From the main site post, here is the link to an alternative source. https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Farchive.org%2Fdetails%2Fli... Funny enough, with Archive down and YT kicking video offline, shows why we need our own hosting.

Comment Its not only developers (Score 1) 159

I think the intent here is really a comment on teams and not developers per say. I get the term, but I suspect its more commentary on leveling up any role (dev, ops, manager, etc.). Saying '50 "is less performant than" vibing(10)' needs more context. Not all team members are equal in skill nor equal in responsibility (thus they don't even have a position/perspective to make a real impact). If 10 roles can "power up", and keep focus/influence outcomes, then I agree. If its just the same few power players, then not so sure. 10 developers on their own will still have lots of issues (if not just the code).

Hopefully others will post their events here as well. https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgedsf.org%2F (free hybrid event on 21-October).

The official event day is 21-October, yet some events will happen between now and then. Like many aspects of security, encryption is often abused or unused. The GED event is an attempt to refresh or start new users of encryption. Our local team is putting on the San Francisco (free hybrid) event called GEDSF. Help a friend or neighbor learn about encryption and its importance!

While I suspect the sands of time have hidden some collective memory, pretty sure plenty of "real" people were at this event.

Submission + - IEEE i50 - A Virtual Celebration of 50 Years of the Internet (i50ieee.com)

repett0 writes: Through the collaboration of many professional computing societies and industry; including the IEEE, People-Centered Internet, Google, Internet Society, IEEE Computer Society, GIANT Protocol, IEEE Foundation, along with volunteers from the SF Bay Area ACM and Internet Society; the IEEE i50 event celebrated many key technologies and innovators from the past 50 years and considerations of what is to come in the next 50 years. Video streams are available and more are coming online (including interviews with key innovators, society leadership, and more). If you could not make this event event, follow on activities continue, including the Peoples-Centered Internet Imagine Workshop where a mix of society is working together to consider how to improve humanities intersection with ever expanding abilities thanks to technology.

Off the record — I was a volunteer, onsite and it was incredible to meet and greet such a wonderful mix of people making technology happen. Thank you to the People-Centered Internet for the opportunity to participate.

While I wouldn't normally ambulance chase, I think its instructive to show others the kinds of bugs that can hurt a service/system. Here is the related bug report for the redis-py project. https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fredis%2Fredis... Not blaming either party, mistakes happen, just a reminder of the interconnected world we live in and the risks involved.
