I made (refined an existing one I found in a gist) a little script recently that does this more efficiently with bare repos and bundles: https://github.com/JarvusInnovations/fed-gi…

The thing is, there really is no such thing as a "free market" as most who are in love with the term envision ALL markets are BORN of regulations. A market is what emerges when you…

Such an over-engineered API and then you use 1 and 0 instead of boolean for the fundamentally boolean thing that's the whole fking point lol, I'm out

^ This right here. This article is pretty hogwash IMO Points 1 and 3 aren't relevant if they aren't recording the data. Companies in other jurisdictions have no magic invulnerabili…

You can use it to load or compute derivatives of environmental configuration once

Chef's Habitat is a really powerful nix-like system that I find to be a bit more practical. Like nix though it suffers from being a complete paradigm shift that people coming in fr…

> you wouldn't learn all the meta of a language like C++ in a couple of months. I think this reinforces OP' point though: what we really need are descriptions more specific than "s…

I hope the team is thinking of dusting of GitBook Editor too

I've switched from GitBook mostly to mkdocs-material for technical docs

Chef Habitat might be more what you're looking for in that regard, it very much feels like an intellectual derivative of NixOS and focuses on the cloud native story

> Agreed. The only place where software that the OP wants to create can reside is in the hobbyist community or free, open source community. In the real world this isn’t cost effect…

WordPress is an excellent example of a malleable system Proper software engineers will poo-poo all day on WordPress' bad architecture and the messes users make with it But also, it…

Good recommendation, thanks!

To give some examples, think about what Linux does for operating systems and what WordPress does for publishing. The antidote for mainframes wasn't every individual maintaining the…

The antidote to today's rampant centralization of technical infrastructure isn't rampant decentralization though The PC revolution happened when people become empowered to work tog…

And to add to that, the more generic saas systems you cobble together, the shorter the likely time window until one of them gets acquired/folds/pivots and disrupts you Invested in …

The open source Odoo does that too

Just do it and see what happens ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Most certainly use a library at least for building and parsing messages. All the complexity is in figuring out how to use your particular …

Check out the Digital Services Act, a current bill going through congress to throw some gas on efforts like this: https://www.wired.com/story/kamala-harris-digital-services-a...

On top of all this there's the theory that gas giants typically migrate towards their star, it may be rare for a gas giant like Jupiter to find a stable orbit where it can shield t…

There's a lot of value in removing all the plumbing you typically find at the start of node project to handle basic things like routing. I'm a big fan of moving all that "outside" …

Writing code is one thing, knowing how to guide an organization of any size greater than a handful of employees to design software solutions and manage the change of rolling it out…

Counting an IP address as PII is kind of crappy, you need a court order to turn an IP alone into PII. Operators should be free to log traffic at the network level, PII should only …

As a desktop Linux user who rarely got to have good GUI applications until electron became popular because it's barely economical for anyone to actually maintain 3 sep UIs, I am ab…

As a Sencha user that has gone through Idera acquiring a product I use, don't count on any product development or meaningful support coming out of them Their model seems to be farm…
