Blinkz0rz posted:you ain't kidding i just checked and our aws spend last month was $1.3m and that's one of the cheaper months we've had lately this is total cost of about 10 computer touchers if you save more than 10 computer touchers time on what you get, that's a positive on the balance sheet if that $1.3m includes some big-rear end db boxes, that's like a whole computer toucher to deal with its poo poo, just for example by being completely and totally commoditized and ruthlessly competitive with the knowledge that it's completely commoditizable and it's ok to commoditize it, this sort of cloudshit is one of the only places where capitalism unironically and completely works. also its mostly b2b so the peeps on both sides of the transaction are p. hard to victimize

the cto of the place i'm at was high up at microsoft dragged like 9 of his microsoft buddies to shore up a previously-10-peep engineering team. they do honestly better work than the old peeps cuz it turns out tech majors (former tech majors, i guess?) have hiring standards. i was another student of the prof whose spinoff this is so i got in by nepotism (lol no) we use postgres and goog cloud, lol. by cto's choice (but we use c# and vs2017)

prisoner of waffles posted:I think there's a real trend in CS pedagogy to ignore the fact that some people are gonna show up able to program rill gud and others are gonna show up having not really programmed before and to aim the class at the average (average, _not_ median) skill level: below the people who've already acquired some modicum of skill but well above everyone who is just learning. there was a grad student in the intro cs class in the plutocrat school i went to who had programmed for 15 years of his 22 years of life, many of those years for actual money he thought that they didn't let you in the upper div classes w/o the intro cs class they actually do split it for undergrad (like they have heritage spanish classes, just "you know how to program a lil already" intro classes), but the classes are almost the same but it really seems to me that they should be materially different imo self-learners would be the ones you stick into landau notation all day erryday initially, forex
