The ABC really is desperate for content. If they want real controversy they should do vi vs emacs, or tabs vs spaces on #qanda.

I wanted to preorder a couple of new phones from #telstra. First off their site would only let me add one handset to my cart. When trying to checkout it kept telling me I was the primary account holder and emptying the cart. As usual, chat was completely useless. Good thing I had an hour to waste so I could drive to a store and place my order. Poor customer service is so expensive for the customer.

Today I sat two #aws cert exams back to back. I didn’t do as well as I hoped. Listening to @Quinnypig talk to @BretFisher on the #DevOps and #docker podcast about certification is cheering me up. Listen to it at https://pca.st/episode/5d1cd769-4324-4dd2-a0d1-f158986c5885
AWS containers with Corey Quinn - DevOps and Docker Talk: Cloud Native Interviews and Tooling
Bret and Matt are joined by Corey Quinn to talk about AWS and containers.-------------------------------------★ Enroll now for my next Live course, GitHub Actions + Argo CD, scheduled for July 10-21. Go to bret.courses/autodeploy to sign up. ★------------------------------------Corey Quinn is the Chief Cloud Economist at the Duckbill Group. You may have seen or heard some of his in-depth AWS content, including his Last Week in AWS newsletter and blog, Corey's podcast Screaming in the Cloud and the AWS Morning Brief, or his highly produced YouTube videos on the Last Week in AWS channel. Corey runs the Duckbill Group, a company of people focused on helping clients understand and manage their cloud spend. If I had to describe Corey in a sentence, he's a quick thinking AWS expert who is one part cloud strategist, and one part sarcasm.

Sindarina, Edge Case DetectiveSince I keep seeing developers use ‘pretty’ IP addresses like ’1.2.3.4’ in example configurations; a reminder that you MUST NOT use publicly routable addresses that you do not control in your code.
Instead, use one of the available 'TEST-NET' IPv4 or IPv6 ranges documented in RFC 6890;
192.0.2.0/24
198.51.100.0/24
203.0.113.0/24
❌ 1.2.3.4
✅ 192.0.2.4
and for IPv6;
✅ 2001:db8::/32
Pass it on to all of your fellow developers, documentation writers, and so forth.

RFC 6890: Special-Purpose IP Address Registries
This memo reiterates the assignment of an IPv4 address block (192.0.0.0/24) to IANA. It also instructs IANA to restructure its IPv4 and IPv6 Special-Purpose Address Registries. Upon restructuring, the aforementioned registries will record all special-purpose address blocks, maintaining a common set of information regarding each address block.
