    Yeah, init scripts are simple, but things get tricky outside of the happy path. Think of service upgrades/restarts. Once you care about dependencies, then you are back to a graph l…

    Think about user services in a multi-user setup Do you want user-level services, or a multi-tenant system-level service? - Who can tweak the service configuration? - How do you ens…

    I was hoping for a rebase that recalled what your previous base commit of your branch. I'm really not fond of having to `git rebase --interactive` just to drop all commits that are…

    I recall that in the first release that supported LISTEN/NOTIFY there was a performance issue around it (poor locking IIRC), which today the "bad post" mentioned in here corrects i…

    And building a consistent good experience from isolated tools is even harder. The problem is just hard and I think good criteria with the super app approach is the way to go. I rea…

    To anyone thinking that 18m² isn't that big for how large the space is, please recall how bright reflective things shine during the day when you hit the right angle.
