That honestly looks terrible. It's like their developers haven't heard about fluid design. Why is it only using 40% of the page for actual content, even after I collapse the annoying sidebar. They'd be much better off with a navbar with dropdowns, or fewer links using a hierarchical structure.
Arch and Alpine are the best distros in my opinion, however for most people Manjaro is going to be a much easier introduction to understanding the installation process. Package management is so much easier and you can also use whatever app sandbox technologies you want.
There is an amount of lock-in with any Cloud workload though right? IAM, billing, support? If you are bought into containers (which quite a lot of people are) it doesn't seem like incredible lock-in from technology PoV when Fargate and Cloud Run exist?
Seems more like Cloud Run to me. A modest amount of vendor lock-in if you're only interested in running compute workloads, and the usual ton of vendor lock-in that is inherent to any effective cloud usage if you want to go all in with IBM Cloud.
It actually impresses me so far. I've got a soft spot for IBM Cloud given that its origin is creating a public cloud out of open source projects and giving back to them. Their serverless offerings so far have been lackluster though. IBM Cloud Functions, based on Apache OpenWhisk, which they created and open-sourced, has a weird programming model.
But this seems like Cloud Run except it also has support for Docker images on any registry (not just GCR) and can run batch jobs up to 2 hours long. I'm going to keep an eye on it.
Appreciate the offer, but I wouldn't know what to ask yet. I'm still pretty junior in the grand scheme of things. I plan to just keep an eye on how it develops.
Cool, but at that point I would probably just stick with what I have until it can be natively supported, or see if their current config is easy to template myself.
Pretty cool, but you'd think they would just have a Dockerimage ready to be deployed and a network driver or something similar for these types of challenges.
Better specs for $400 less, on a Pixel?
Name one phone built to last with better specs than the iPhone SE please, I'm listening.
I don't care about multiple cameras, OLED displays, 120 Hz or whatever the industry is trying to push these days, I just want a reliable decently built phone with a good SW support.
Furthermore, I don't see how replacing the phone more often would be a positive thing, it just means I would produce more trash.
The SE 2020 is using the A13 chip which is about double the performance of the best snapdragon soc available right now. There doesn't exist an android phone with specs comparable to the SE.
You previously said "the specs are the same or better for $400 less", but the A13 in the SE blows away the Snapdragon 730 in the Pixel 4a and the price difference is only $50.
Absolutely, lots of people are loyal to certain brands or look for the best value/spec in Android devices and make their choice based on that. If people didn't care, everyone would be buying $50 Android devices. Most people I know now even look at the version of Android it comes with.
