I agree that this would work, and be ideal. I think it only scales to a certain size organization though. At my company, I'd guess we have over a thousand developers across hundred…

The 16 pings a minute. The 6 hours of meetings a day because people aren't getting the information they need organically each day. The "hey, can I call?"'s during what I thought wo…

The JS examples don't seem too demonstrative to me. Especially for someone not very familiar with RxJS. Any time you're wrapping something with `from` or `of`, I raise an eyebrow e…

Thank you. I guess I was imagining that the flags lived in your source code repo, and required a commit and push to update, thus triggering some CD build and redeploying your app a…

This is my question. If your flags are in your repo, what is functionally the difference from just having them be variables in your code somewhere. "Feature Flags that live inside …

This is peak Hacker News response

I interpreted the parent comment in the inverse. A poor economy means people will stay in unhappy situations longer than otherwise.

I've always been unsure where this stuff fits in. Do you make it before your system is built, when its unclear how where all the cards will fall? Or after your system is made and i…

This is the second comment I've seen in this thread comparing "Gitflow" to what was typical in SVN. Having been there when SVN was in vogue, I can assure you that our process looke…

My experience was that older VCS's (SVN in my case) leaned in heavily to the trunk based paradigm. I don't know what you're talking about with prod branches. The default branch in …

This one blog post resulted in so much pain for so many. I'm glad it has been addended, but the damage was done. For the record, I don't think it's the authors fault.

doesn't is suffice to say that functions meet all the prerequisites of a vector space? f + g = g + f f + (g + h) = (f + g) + h f + -f = 0 (a * b) * f = a * b f a (f + g) = a f + a …

I read this book too and it really drove things home. I remember after feeling a little bit unsure about the relevance of orthogonal systems, feeling the thrill of beginning to see…

If they are limited to 1, then they are not appropriate to use as a deployment mechanism. Do you only have one change being worked at a time? On my team, there's typically at least…

Okay dude!

Bias is how all electric components work. All they know about is the difference in voltage between their electrodes, not any absolute voltage w.r.t the rest of the circuit.

Yes yes yes. You're not going to get much appreciation of this from newer devs. They've only known one thing. I shudder at all the human-hours spent on duplicative tasks related to…

nah its ml bro

That makes sense. Thank you. Honest question - What would you do to justify doing this over using cookie based sessions? Like, are there back of the napkin calculations you could d…

Can you explain what this looks like? So each application that authenticates its requests using the jwt subscribes to a message queue and replicates the data in some database local…

It's not as if you're expected to use ORMs to do ad hoc querying of a database. Just fire up a db connection and start writing sql. If you work on a large application with lots of …

Are you confusing software dependencies for the semantics of a running program?

You're talking about the role that transistors play as switches in a digital logic circuit. The video is about the physical operation of, in particular, bipolar junction transistor…

I'd strongly recommend it! I think it's worth the price of admission for the first few chapters alone, although I admit that at a certain point, I was struggling to keep up with al…
