Yes, I think of them as blogs. New engineers can read along and see the evolution of thoughts and design decisions.

Wow, I love this idea. I'm curious how you have that structured within the code base. Is it literally a platform folder and a business folder?

At Goldbely, our solution has been to have a single GitHub repo that's just for issues and use tags to highlight the actual code repos involved. Works pretty well, if a little awkw…

Great read. What's more, I found out that my company's codebase was still using the broken 3.3.2 version (code fix in the works). Love it when reading HN pays off immediately like …

We're using https://geekbot.io at Goldbely to organize this. Handy to have the Slack bot remind us in the morning so no one forgets.

Reminds me of FOMO bot by Thoughtbot https://github.com/thoughtbot/FOMObot

What kind of development do you do and how old/big is the codebase?

If Otto's Appfile mimics Heroku's app.json file ( https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/heroku-button#creating... ), that'd be a huge win to me in having more sustainable Rails ope…

I do appreciate when tools/libraries take the time to explain the problem and how they differ from their competition. Especially in cases like this, where it's an underlying archit…

> some of the design decisions simply didn’t make sense for our security model I'm curious what decisions those are. We use heaven and it's worked well.

This seems like a good way of creating stand up reports that no one will read, except maybe management. I've always thought of stand ups as a self-management tool and a short perio…

Awesome, thanks :)

I dont suppose you have a tool that does this? I've been pondering building one, but I'd rather just skip to the part where I can start complaining about my service :p

Yeah, this is pretty much the behavior that I want to see from open source maintainers: make decisions and build conventions but be open to having your mind convinced of alternativ…

Last time I tried to get Induction working, it refused to load any of my databases :/

I use atmos/heaven for a similar functionality. It's nice because it ensures that the master branch on Github has gone through out automated tests and that whoever is deploying is …

I like the content, but I wish it was a blog so that I could simply follow the RSS feed. Literally, your ideas are intriguing to me and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.
