> for a few thousands users It makes absolutely no sense to base this decision on the number of users. We have some applications that don't even have 10 users but still use k8s. Tr…

I disagree, seems like a pretty standard structure of one directorz per app and inside that subfolders for configuration, secrets, opaque various data. Not complicated at all reall…

Why is it obviously wrong? During a duration of time it is okay so say an amount of energy (MWh) was produced, right?

> We sometimes call merges "commits" in Git, and, again, leaky abstraction and overloaded term. You abuse the term leaky abstraction here. That isn’t a leaky abstraction as a merge…

Some YouTuber talked about this and I think they were pretty on point: Of course for consumers this could all happen in some app on the phone. But a 3rd party app will always be le…

Testcontainers is awesome and all the hate it gets here is undeserved. Custom shell scripts definitely can't compete. For example one feature those don't have is "Ryuk": A containe…

Yeah but once per page, which is why it is okay to disable cache as the author wanted to simulate a cold load of each of those pages.

Honestly I don’t understand why not more people use a GUI for git. What you describe would be 1 Minute of work and maybe 10 clicks with a very low probability of shooting yourself …

What would "integration tests" (that you don't write) look then in your opinion? I ask because in my team we also a long time made the destinction between unit/integration based on…

The same reason why most people stopped manually editing some random files via FTP to do deployments: to get a proper reproducible, automated and monitored production environment.

But on the other hand it seems that produce is of higher quality in NL on average than in DE.

I stopped reading when the solution for DNS was AWS and the solution for stateful sets was AWS EC2. This is just a very weird comparison. Seems like the author doesn’t understand w…

I am a little bit disappointed. This is just plain old static site generation? By "docs as code" I expected something like programmatically verifying that the code examples compile…

What the hell is an OS without a kernel? Is this less an OS and more like a toolchain to build container images?

Except it isn't, so e.g. running containers still need a VM. I wish macOS had something like WSL built-in.

Great article! I think I knew most of it already but I’ve never seen all of it covered so succinctly and easy to understand! I think in the case of Nix it is especially important t…

I am using a small German email provider and I can't remember the last time I got spam. What's even crazier is that they are so confident in their spam filter that they simply reje…

Yeah, but having that is clearly not aligned with making money. They could make it more difficult or impossible to use headscale at any moment.

If you think Ansible and Docker are solving the same problem you haven’t understood yet why people use containers for deploying software. We use them because then what’s running in…

> Kotlin's co-routines are simply syntactic sugar for simple callbacks That's only partly true. And yeah they're callbacks but not like e.g. we know from JS. As far as I know CPS b…

I think right now this Isn’t possible with “normal” Spring because Spring and various other libraries you’ll normally use make heavy use of reflection. Frameworks like Quarkus and …

Man, there’s a lot of negative comments here. Just to add a different experience: my company loves Nix, it makes it really easy to integrate new tools into the dev/build environmen…

I disagree. Yeah, you always start out with K/V pairs but it never takes long until you need the same configuration but just with a slight tweak here or there. For example consider…

But at least in WhatsApp I can scroll as fast as I want while the App never is stuck. With iMessage it loads for seconds every 20 messages or so. I also really don't get it.

Eh, there have been quite a lot of good Electron apps lately. Where do you draw the line exactly? edit: spelling
