threeturn commented on Ask HN: Thoughts on using American-based cloud vendors in the Trump era?    · Posted by u/kakoni

That sounds to me like the epitome of foolishness. Making a law about where your data rests requires a severe misconception of the risks of that data being revealed to your adversaries.
threeturn · 10 months ago
Depends on who your adversaries are. I have no doubt that all top cloud providers (AWS, Azure, GCP and OCI) are doing a great job keeping my data secure. But they need to obey US authority, and considering what is happening right now is not very reassuring. At the bare minimum, if I need to pick a cloud region, I will pick one within the EU. But after the cloud act (see: https://www.justice.gov/criminal/cloud-act-resources) not even Europe is secure. So, no is not foolishness.

The elimination of the basic tier is the thing that really threw me off.

I want GitLab to succeed because I want there to be a viable competitor to GitHub. But they've leaned so hard into this "everything in one" shtick that it's now impossible to just pay for them as a GitHub competitor. Their new price point only makes sense if you're also using their issue tracker and doing crazy things with CI that can't be done with GitHub actions.

Maybe there's a market that's interested in this all-in-one stuff, but I suspect most companies already have an issue tracker and are not going to invest in switching, because that causes headaches for years. As for CI, there's definitely a "hardcore CI" market for whom GitHub actions is insufficient, but they already have a solid open source option in Jenkins. I worry that GitLab's lost focus on the git-with-simple-automations market will cement GitHub's dominance for the foreseeable future.

Same here, very unhappy customer. The new pricing is just nonsense, and now I'm looking for alternatives but migrating out 500 users is not trivial.

Moreover, I'm not too fond of the GitLab approach of replacing all the other typical tools in the DevOps toolchain. I'm happy with Jenkins, artifactory, etc., and I don't understand why I need to pay for something I'm not using or planning to use.

Is anyone in the same situation? :)

Please just don't. You're better than that. Here's a list of companies who don't participate in this bullshit: https://github.com/poteto/hiring-without-whiteboards

At my current gig I was hired at staff level in Nov. 190k (please, let's normalize sharing salaries) . I could do better, but I am passionate about my job for the first time in 10 years. How much do you value happiness?

You're not an imposter. Especially as an HN reader (you're actually interested in your job).

I tend to agree leetcode is not always reflecting fundamental skills. Some people just freeze even if they are good software engineers. I'm wondering how to assess the ability to write some code and decent problem-solving? What is your approach?
