github.com expires in 44 days github.com's SSL certificate expires in 34 days.

Will either cause an outage next month?

They are also a google workspace user. Wonder how they feel about google as a company.

As an enterprise customer it’s already self service.

Support is very poor, rackspace level at the moment.

CloudFlare will be abused even more. It’s IP ranges blocked and that will be the only enterprise difference- premium IP pool.

Amazon tried with its work suite - work mail, work drive and chime but failed miserably.

It’s now a Microsoft 365 user

Which iDP are you thinking?

Also how’s fastmail with calendar invites to companies on exchange? What would you use to replace teams? Zoom?

It didn't expect to be the most well known ai company.

Insiders are pissed they don’t have billions of stock like other big tech founders.

Where are the AI features?

Also European Union and India!

He's going to have to do a lot of cameo's to pay for that.

But DNSSEC in root zones isn't unique to .nz.

.au, .us, .com, .net, .gov, .io, etc all have the same challenges.

- Responsible for .nz tld are staffed by 4 technical employees doing 24x7 on call support

- Engagement surveys captured staff feeling fatigued and under resources at entire org level

- Hard to hire for roles due to specialisation

- Team moving away from BAU work to projects

- Issues raised by external partner but team had other immediate work pressures

- Had to contact ex-employee that use to worked there to help resolve

- Once a year critical take just done by one team member

- Many IT operations tasks have sufficient external dependencies that it is impossible to tell – for certain that the task will be successful in production without doing the task in the production environment. - We've all been there.

Sounds like InternetNZ should actually outsource all of this to an external party and just focus on governance work.

You'll be surprised that non-technical users will just keep trying with the vendor until fixed.

They won't help themselves and just switch and wait for the other provider to fix.

Google really annoyed early adopters of Google Apps (now workspace) with the legacy to paid migration, then oh no you don't have to pay here's 300 free user licences nonsense.

I can totally see how CIOs and other tech savvy leaders in business really look at anything they use Google related and wonder to themselves if it might be wise to look at alternatives.

I agree with lot of comments in that Twitter thread.

Is anyone happy with Gitlab public runners?

I've found them extremely unreliable both in my free account (every failure takes 1-2 mins away from my 50 minutes!) and in my employers paid subscription so we self run but run into issues with not being able to scale runners enough to meet developers demands.

Its also super annoying that you can't use your own docker containers hosted on ECR on public runners (no way to provide auth)
