Yeah agreed. I use copilot too. It's fine for small, limited tasks/functions but that's about it. The overwhelming majority of my work is systems design and maintenance though.. There's no AI for that..
From a cloud infrastructure perspective, I would take Google Cloud over AWS or Azure any day of the week.. For GKE alone (Google's kubernetes product) it's worth moving to them.
Most other things are fine but mostly because there aren't any serious competition.. Maps, Android, YouTube.. GMail is fine but I use FastMail and Proton as well. Drive works when sending things to other people but for personal stuff I use the Synology. Haven't used search in years.
This is the right answer. Help Desk is by far the right entry point.
I have really enjoyed the small projects I have written in rust but, being in the SRE space, it would be irresponsible and selfish to use anything other than bash, python, or go. It feels like the overwhelming majority of tools I use these days have been written in go.
You could. I prefer to replace them though. All foam degrades over time so replacements are about more than just being clean.
I only really do this every 2-3 years. It's not exactly expensive.
No. With Godhead (terrible) and Crossbreed (amazing for the time). Just searched and seems like that was a much smaller tour a few months before the one you went to.
Fair. For what it's worth though, macbooks have been the default laptop at every startup I've worked at over the last ~8 years.. The first M1 mbp was released in 2020 and most of those companies I was at had a policy of replacing machines after 2-3ish years too. it's getting to the point where entire companies can be/are running on arm.
Might be more specific to particular industries or company maturity level but this has been my personal experience.
I've been using this for a year as Github Copilot. Is this just a rebranding to Microsoft Copilot?
The idea doesn't change if it's rest or a code library. The version definition would just go in you requirements.txt or go.mod or whatever instead of a url endpoint.
I think the idea with soft serve us that you use hooks and use a dedicated ci/cd tool. I use adnanh/webhook for lightweight ci/cd on personal projects.
I cannot connect via VNC or see the folders from other devices.
Troubleshooting literally anything with computers requires logs, error messages, description of current behavior (ideally with expected behavior), and a background of what other devices/systems/OSes/etc are involved.
Posts like this that basically say "it doesn't work" with no additional context will NEVER get you any help because no one knows what problem you are seeing.
"I'm running X os, version Y. I'm trying to do Z. The error message i am seeing in the logs for $SERVICE is 'FATAL: Unable to do $TASK'. I tried to do this but I'm still not seeing the expected behavior."
^^ This is how you get someone to help you.
Newegg used to sell this one dumb phone for like $12. Completely unbranded garbage but it made calls and did sms.
My brother used to lose his phone or drop it in the toilet constantly. We had like 3 or 4 of that crappy phone just because he kept doing stupid stuff.
