"Hey I got some great news. Got 20 minutes for a call later today?"

Oh really? Logging into the portal or logging into with the CLI to push code? The CLI login is down for me.

Returning 500 errors.

Our startup uses managed elasticsearch through elastic. We're a very small team so support/consulting advice is important to us and they are good at that.

Ha! I always laugh when I hear those. Guess we will find out!

I was a naysayer but find copilot makes me more productive. Especially at writing tests. It's very good at recognizing patterns in your own work, and completing an entire test base…

My wife went to a conference recently where she learned about copilot. As someone who produces a lot of open source code, this immediately started me on a rant, talking about how i…

Anybody using Cloudflare to cache an API that serves JSON? Thinking about setting that up.

No I never used any of that. I would have moved on to another job if someone insisted on it.

I sound like a shill for Upwork (promise I'm not!). But the fees for long-term clients (>$10k in earnings) is 5%. If you go on your own and bill through a system you will likely pa…

I would give it another shot. Since your history is older you likely need to keep your rate at $60 for a while and complete a few jobs. But UpWork has the biggest market and there …

I was very successful on UpWork. However, it is not something you can jump into with no work history on the site, like "I have 16 years experience so my rate is $125/hr." People do…

I agree that a small team of engineers can do big things. But 15 engineers to run Uber ride share in maintenance mode? That's insane. I would love to see a breakdown of each engine…

Heroku is my tried and true. I've likely done thousands of deploys over the years and have never had one go bad or leave my app in a bad state. I have rolled back an app a few time…

That's great. They make good points on securing databases as well. Everything has to be open with Heroku's basic dynos. It would be nice to secure PostgreSQL or Elasticsearch so th…

I'm excited to see a solid competitor to Heroku. While I trust Heroku due to using it for so long, they have become complacent with pricing and features. For example, affordable au…

Anybody else prefer Google meet over zoom lately? I feel like it's a cleaner layout.

This is a great idea. There are well-documented ways to undo things on stack overflow, but almost every way: 1. Has three competing ways available to complete the 'undo' 2. Every w…

Maybe he can close out this 9 year old feature request to add custom domains to cloud apps: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CLOUD-6999

I was thinking the same thing. I used Doordash a while back and figured they were making good money based on the fees they were adding in, such as delivery fee, service fee, tips t…

My favorite book on this topic is the DevOps Handbook. The author lays out a very clear and easy to follow path that gives you the same result: secure and reliable systems.
