    I've been impacted by this particular "issue" and while it's changing the way "decades of convention" it's not really a bad thing imo. Running things via screen and tmux as a solut…

    Seems like the enactor should be checking the version/generation of the current record before it applies the new value, to ensure it never applies an old plan on top of an record u…

    If the the OP is the author, did consider filing a bug with errcheck? It should be possible for errcheck to check if the comparison is being done within an `Is(err error) bool` met…

    I worked at the OSL as a student years ago, and it was one of the most impactful places I've ever worked at. I learned a lot, and I wouldn't be the engineer I am today without havi…

    As someone who was a student at the OSL when Vagrant was hip, also thanks to Mitchell for creating Vagrant! We used it a ton for testing all our our configuration management.

    That's 60% of the _budget_ not 60% of their time. Also: Lance is almost certainly working more than 40 hours a week. Also, he isn't just a systems administrator. He's a mentor, fun…
