For some reason, it is surprisingly hard to create a bootable Windows USB using macOS. These are my steps for doing so, which have worked for me in macOS Monterey (12.6.1) for Windows 10 and 11. After following these steps, you should have a bootable Windows USB drive.

1. Download a Windows disc image (i.e. ISO file)

You can download Windows 10 or Windows 11 directly from Microsoft.

2. Identify your USB drive

After plugging the drive to your machine, identify the name of the USB device using diskutil list, which should return an output like the one below. In my case, the correct disk name is disk2.

Installing Fish shell on MacOS

Fish is a smart and user-friendly command line (like bash or zsh). This is how you can nstall it on MacOS and make your defaul shell.

Note that you need the https://brew.sh/ package manager.

You can also download the fish app from their website. I do recomand using brew because update are easier.

Stevey's Google Platforms Rant

I was at Amazon for about six and a half years, and now I've been at Google for that long. One thing that struck me immediately about the two companies -- an impression that has been reinforced almost daily -- is that Amazon does everything wrong, and Google does everything right. Sure, it's a sweeping generalization, but a surprisingly accurate one. It's pretty crazy. There are probably a hundred or even two hundred different ways you can compare the two companies, and Google is superior in all but three of them, if I recall correctly. I actually did a spreadsheet at one point but Legal wouldn't let me show it to anyone, even though recruiting loved it.

I mean, just to give you a very brief taste: Amazon's recruiting process is fundamentally flawed by having teams hire for themselves, so their hiring bar is incredibly inconsistent across teams, despite various efforts they've made to level it out. And their operations are a mess; they don't real

How to use the FaunaDB public Docker image.

This document will walk through creating a FaunaDB docker instance using the publicly available docker image. Three different types of deployments will be illustrated.

A single node FaunaDB - basic developer functionality.
A three node, single replica instance of FaunaDB - scale out operations.
A three node, three replicas instance of FaunaDB - distributed operations.

Finally, we will wrap up with some more general documentation around the various options available when using the public docker image.

Methods of Signing with GPG

There are now two ways to approach this:

Using gpg and generating keys
Using Kryptonite by krypt.co

This Gist explains how to do this using gpg in a step-by-step fashion. Kryptonite is actually wickedly easy to use-but you will still need to follow the instructions

For using a GUI-based GIT tool such as Tower or Github Desktop, follow the steps here for signing with either GPG or Krypt.co.
