We have garbage collection for unused memory, and unallocated blocks for storage, but I don't know of any project that has deployed global scale data scrubbing.

** Does targeted data removal at cloud scale exist? **

(Thanks to @jimfl for the inspiration.)

@tcely I voted “we deployed that.” A service I worked on used DynamoDB TTLs as a keepalive. Every time the data was used in a meaningful way, the TTL was updated. If it expired, the entry was deleted, which triggered a DDB stream + Lambda to do any additional needed cleanup.

This was within a closely-related set of microservices with total control of the data lifecycle. Something between a many-to-many microservice architecture would necessarily be more sophisticated.

NEVER type it on a keyboard (or share a photo) if you wouldn't want it to appear on the front page of The New York Times. I've lived by this credo since working at Digital (DEC) in the late 1980s. Nothing is permanently deleted. NOTHING.

Well fuck - they have just undeleted posts I made years ago that I'd removed when I did a purge a couple of years back.

So Reddit didn't actually delete the data - also these videos are no longer on YT so the thumb is cached

They are so fucked

@tanepiper For any sufficiently complex cloud service that is built to scale, there are two possible states for a representative to be in when they tell you that data can be deleted from the service: 1) incorrect, 2) lying.

The chances that there is any one person in the organization who can exhaustively list all of the places the data goes is as close to zero as makes no odds.

Woke up this morning and thought dammit, I’ve wanted a small kayak for river paddling for many years. Today I should actually make this happen.

Opened Craigslist and one hour plus 17 emails later I find two kayak mounts for my trailer rack plus two nice kayaks, all for half the price of new.

So basically this is a summary of my day in two images:

@mathowie Craigslist is an amazing way to really good kayaking gear at a deep discount. I got my current boat plus upgrades nearly new, at half MSRP from an experienced paddler simply because he found it to be too tippy.

I've been thinking about clothes pegs and the vast superiority of wooden pegs. We dry our clothes on a clothes line and have a box of wooden and plastic clothes pegs.

The plastic pegs degrade in sunlight and eventually break. They'll fill a landfill or break into microplastics. Meanwhile, sunlight keeps rot off the wooden pegs and with regular use they may outlast me. If they break, the wood can be tossed in the garden to rot.

Why are plastic clothes pegs even a thing?

@joncounts The wooden ones break down into microlignins.

In the late 90s and early naughties, many friends and colleagues were raving about an RTS game called Asian Vampires (and Asian Vampires II). Recently I went to read about it, but I can’t find anything about it on the web…

@cabinet20 As I watched the demo, I was thinking that the Live Voicemail feature would require integration or support somehow with the carrier, but I don’t know the details.
