The Parallax
JULY 25, 2018
Leading sites hosting services or content as broad as fantasy football, Doctor Who , and search in China have this in common: Google Chrome now marks them as unsafe to visit. As of Tuesday, the browser labels ESPN.com, BBC.com, Baidu.com, and thousands of other sites that don’t use HTTPS as “Not secure.”. It’s the first browser to do so, but because of Chrome’s position as the most popular browser in the United States and around the world, it’s a change that could indicate how browsers will reac

Google has released a new book: The Site Reliability Workbook — Practical Ways to Implement SRE. It's the second book in their SRE series. How is it different than the previous Site Reliability Engineering book? David Rensin, a SRE at Google, says : It's a whole new book.

Quantum Computers have almost arrived, now what? Image Credit: Steve Jurvetson. So just exactly what does any of us know about the field of quantum mechanics? If you’ve done some science fiction reading, then by now you probably know that quantum mechanics talks about a particle can exist in more than one state all at the same time. Additionally, there is the property that Einstein called “spooky” where quantum particles are able to communicate with each other over vast distanc

Working on Firefox DevTools has always been a dream of mine, mostly because it feels like the ultimate way to give back to the development community and those that helped me become a success. And when I explain who Mozilla is and people ask “Oh, so you work on Firefox?!”, I can finally say “yes”! Of course working on Firefox DevTools isn’t without its problems, the biggest being that Firefox takes forever to build.

I’ve said it many times on the show, “Without an application, you don’t need infrastructure,” it’s as true today as ever. A cloud is… Infrastructure, sometimes it’s in your data center, sometimes it is managed by someone else. Simplifying the deployment of the infrastructure to support those applications provides the speed to market needed to deploy applications faster.

Multi-tenant architecture allows software vendors to realize tremendous efficiencies by maintaining a single application stack instead of separate database instances while meeting data privacy needs. When you use a data warehouse to power your multi-tenant analytics, the proper approach is vital. Multi-tenant analytics is NOT the primary use case with traditional data warehouses, causing data security challenges.

Companies in a wide range of industries see that moving IT resources to the cloud promise strategic, scale and cost advantages they need. Gartner recently forecast that $186.4 billion will be spent on the public cloud worldwide in 2018.

Sometimes it’s hard to stay focused when you’re at work, especially if you’re inside a stifling office space on a warm day. Of course, you’d always rather be somewhere else than at work, but what you can do is make your working environment more appealing, more fun, and a productive place to be. If you’re an office manager and you’re considering making changes to the place in order to boost productivity, then your first port of call should be to ask your staff members.

Every company in the world needs customer service; whether it is the job of the owner or a dedicated team, it is the lifeblood of the business. However, not every company gets this essential part of their organization right, and that can spell disaster. Larger corporations might be able to deal with a bad customer service reputation for a while, but it might spell the end for a small business.
OverOps
JULY 25, 2018
If Dev and Ops are one team, why don’t they share the same data? Everyone in tech is busy discussing Kubernetes, containers, and microservices as if the basics of DevOps and continuous delivery are all figured out. In practice, the classic blame game between dev and ops is still alive and kicking. We might be nicer to each other now with a common sense of shared ownership, but those niceties often hide the obstacles that are making it hard for engineers to move forward faster.
