Are you saying Cliff's claims are too... one-sided?

I'm a trustee on the board of a very small village in Illinois. There was a vote to allow the gaming before I got on the board, and only one vote since then to approve a new licens…

That's what I thought too - I mean this is interesting, but dang -- BT was the bee's knees.

I think you're missing the point, but maybe I'm missing yours. Perhaps I could use some mentorship from you. =)

Without context, working for free requires careful thought. But in the context of this conversation "free" means without monetary compensation, but you're still receiving the benef…

I don't see Gitlab explicitly listed as a supported service, but wonder if that would be supported or require google or gitlab to make the integration happen. (This is on a GL EE i…

It took seeing how dismissive people are of a great, free resource to realize I needed to donate just to spite such silly entitled commentary. Thanks for providing the motivation, …

As with the others, backed it on KS, and I don't feel like you owe me anything more than what you've provided. Keep the money, and do something to keep your dream moving forward.

We dislike managing PG too, so we've been migrating to https://www.compose.io/postgresql/ It's not for every situation, but they have replication and failover and downloadable dail…

We went through various configurations/deployments of ES in-house, and eventually outsourced the job. The fickle nature of cluster restarts/upgrades were frustrating along with the…

I've felt a similar pull away from django on a number of apps. Just looking through the Channel docs [0] however, many of the reasons I get frustrated with Django (primarily the la…

Healthchecks.io looks really interesting, both because it's an open source django project and because I was disappointed with Dead Man's Snitch. DMS forces me to live within their …
