  • If the service has legitimate reasons, like it is a web hosting company or something governmental, then why not. If it is a social network, a game or the like, I will simply not use it.

    Using services of a hosting company is something very serious, because the stakes are high, both in costs and in legal responsibility, so most likely you will need to prove your identity. Some companies will even require a meeting to sign a contract.










  • <rant>I just spent an absurd amount of time setting up my local windows environment to use node 10 and gulp with node-sass and node-gyp (complete BS). I also need to do the equivalent for our Ubuntu pipeline.

    And guess what, I just need to do the same for the new team member that just joined and messed his installation with recent versions of everything.

    Oh, still find that easy? Lets just throw in crowdstrike and netscope firewalls and proxies for added security and block 50% of node environment and break all TLS/SSL connexion because things are not difficult enough.

    Want to use git? Sure, it’s jsut 3x to 4x times slower than on Linux.
