    Nothing in this move should affect contributions of Snakebite and Luigi. If anything, it will just make them easier to use with cloud environments in addition to bare metal. With o…

    Browsing through the code, this looks a bit rough around the edges and untested. I'd wonder how it compares to similar packages for Spark, Hadoop or Flink. Lack of numbers and user…

    A possible way to look at Airbnb is that they have 200k properties and 200k contractors that get paid a percentage of the revenue they generate. They aren't in the hotel business, …
