    This is still my primary reason to use GMaps - I wish they would prioritize Public Transport in Apple Maps - SBB even provides an API they could easily use to get any schedule they…

    Good point about the billing. In our case FAAS is not offered by the cloud provider (yet), but we are stuck with them. They want us to spin up a server for every service. We starte…

    I’ve been using Concourse CI and it’s fairly light weight and has great declarative pipelines. Learning curve is not too steep and it has a command-line tool to update your pipelin…
