Agents use find+grep because it's available everywhere and without any configuration, but they would still be more efficient with LSP. Once LSPs will be more easily configurable fo…

Those kind of tools are futile endeavors to me. If you want to use that for unit testing, then I think it would be better to mock the calls to AWS services. That way you test only …

It also doesn't care about arbitrary groupings of humans (a.k.a countries). The fairest system would be for each human being to have an equal amount of pollution they are allowed t…

Trunk-based development fits nicely when you have a single deployment product like a SaaS and you don't need to maintain old versions of your software. You only have one prod envir…

I don't recommend resolving actions on the server in any situation: For actions that require secret information, you would filter the actions sent to the client of any secret infor…

I had the same issue in AGoT:BG and I solved it by representing the state of the game as a tree. At any point of the game, the current game state is a leaf of the tree. You'd repre…

The way I wanted to implement this in my turn-based game engine: If you implement the deterministic update pattern to handle state synchronisation you can add "event" inside the lo…

I would agree with you, if HCL wasn't a bad language in itself: * You can't make have variables in an import block (for example, to specify a different "id" value for each workspac…

> It's annoying because, especially with MongoDB, people come into it having been sold on it being a more "flexible" database. Yes, you don't need to give it a schema. Yes, you can…

You might be interested in the Phase abstraction of my engine. Basically you represent your board game as a tree of phases through which your game progresses in. Each node of your …

Why would you want to store the state in Git? This means that if you have a CD pipeline (triggered itself by a commit) that does `terraform deploy`, you'd need to have your CD pipe…

I think what they means is that if you provisioned your system to receive spans for 5% of non-error requests and a few error requests, if for some random act of god, all the reques…

Whether it's code or not that is being stored in the VCS is not really what matters. The idea is of X-as-Code is that you treat X in the same way that you treat code (VCSed, tested…

I don't know what tools you are using but this can be achieved with Airflow on k8s, for example: * Add a GPU resource requirement on one of your step * Add an auto-scaler that adds…

I've been an MLOps Engineer for around 3 years now and I mostly agree with the article. There is a big overlap between the ML-specific tools that are popping up on the market and t…

What if someone's else profit is due to economies of scale?

Maybe it's only for me, but I've never liked this of too-smart solutions. Let people do the mistakes once and learn the correct package name, instead of relying on a hack and poten…
