The people who are here are more willing to post. So less of us overall but also less lurkers.

You being up an interesting point. Let's expand electricity a little bit.

If I flip a switch the lights come on. I don't need to understand it but someone does. And because electricity can be deadly of handled wrong, everyone in your proximity handles electricity the exact same way (and this is enforced via law). This means only a few people anywhere need to have the deep knowledge of how it works for the rest of us to get light.

Compare this to computing - sure you click the button and get Facebook but that button could be designed any number of ways. Like electricity the generation who tinkered is past (well passing), but unlike electricity firm standards on how to design your Facebook button have not been written in blood.

I for one am terrified of what the next 10 years of the business IT landscape is going to look like as we need to start absorbing kids who grew up on iPads.

As someone who manages a tailscale network at my work...I just want to point out that tailscale is a tiny bit more complicated than just downloading and installing. Not much but...

That said the ability to automate wireguard connections is wonderful and everyone should check it out.

So counter point. Active directory is a god send for managing endpoints, user accounts, endpoints, etc.

No you don't let windows act as a dns server outside the ad subdomain, no you don't use windows to admin your root private ca, and for all you hold dear do not enable that God forsaken web server. But for what it does well, it's the best solution out there.

Interesting footnote about p and q. You see them turn up on formal logic proofs (for philosophy)

I don't know what part your unaware of - so let me do the ELI5. They (HashiCorp) created a tool called teraform which is used for defining what servers/other infrastructure you use in places like AWS. Up until recently this was open source under the Mozilla license to something that's not quite open, but not fully closed source (yet).

We've got it rigged up for aws sso. Each department can make any number of permissions sets (and link to any number of groups). The config for that is all stored in git (with code owners configured so you can only mess up your own stuff).

So the pop out handles on evs make a little sense. The goal is to reduce wind drag as much as possible. At least on mine (not a Tesla) you can still interact with the handle without the car exposing it.

Not having a manual way to open from the inside? No way in hell is that ok.

So I'm using it with Python. For me it's able to do some stuff that terrafom never would be able to (Ive got a spot where resources are generated for each file/object on disk).

I for one am recommending pulumi for any of my teams new infrastructure needs.

Before the flood of people beehaw was one of the main instances. Now just an interesting group of people (and nowhere near the size of world).
