I have started to adapt https://testinfra.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ , which looks similar in style to this from the verification side. Having previously used Salt, Ansible, and Che…

At least in java.time (which I believe an inspiration for Temporal) Duration ( https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/21/docs/api/java.base... ) is a time-based measure of time. Fo…

You could be thinking of the Claude tool search tool [0][1], which lets it do that on-demand loading. Skills (like another comment mentioned) have a progressive disclosure mechanis…

I had the same experience with JobScan. I felt that it helped me on my resume overhaul with some good clear suggestions, but didn't work well with editing and replacement, especial…

I've been watching a YouTube channel named Climate Town that recently did a video talking about natural gas, and leakage was a focus point in the video. It's like a documentary-sty…

Heads up, the https://nightwatch.io/jobs/backend-developer link 404s.

One aspect that I find discouraging is the significant opportunity cost associated with the time and effort required during the job search process. Instead of using this time for s…

They wrote an interesting blog some time back about how "random shuffle" isn't necessarily what people want, and how their algorithm works ( https://engineering.atspotify.com/2014/…

It is indeed Project Loom - https://openjdk.java.net/projects/loom/

I agree that the usability has been declining. The threads feature is pretty close to useful, but it still buries information and it isn't clear to other users in a channel when a …

I thought this was going to be similar to https://play.kotlinlang.org/koans/overview . I used that as a quick way when doing other things to slowly learn parts of the language befo…

YAML templating is something I've come to truly hate. It seems that tools and services want the configuration to be "simple" by using a format that is fairly easy for humans to par…

`kustomize` is an interesting and useful tool, and it is cool to see it available directly in `kubectl` in 1.14. A lower barrier to entry is nice to have for tools like this. It is…

I've had good experiences on the JVM using HOCON [1]. [1]: https://github.com/lightbend/config/blob/b782a2d701fc2b04579...

This is one of my favorite features, too. I've found it works amazing when you generate the documentation or render it locally. Unfortunately, it doesn't work in "safe" mode sites …

I read about the culture of Valve a few years ago and it seemed interesting. What have you seen come out that changed your opinion?

I think of this article ( https://medium.com/@sdboyer/so-you-want-to-write-a-package-m... ) when it comes to package management.

This is awesome and inspiring. Any thoughts on how to approach something similar for red light camera violations and accident/police data in Illinois?

It sounds like the philosophy is "don't break your consumers", which I agree with. Somebody else already linked his Spec-ulation talk, but I think somewhere in there he compares th…

Thanks for the reply. I wrote that post earlier this morning after some other frustration, so I'm sorry for the negative tone. Despite some of our issues with it, Conda has worked …

Not OP, but we would like to move away from it as well. - Breaking behavior between minor versions ( https://github.com/conda/conda/issues/7290 ) - Environments not actually being …

Last time I tried, it also required that the target Python version be installed somewhere on the path. If pipenv used venv instead of virtualenv, something like pyenv to retrieve/i…

SaltStack also has the JINJA2 template embedding which can make it very difficult to understand which parts of the lifecycle run through templating. I'm still not certain I underst…

Sounds similar to the FindBugs project (discussed here [1]). The result from that episode was a fork into SpotBugs [2]. [1]: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12885549 [2]: http…

I think you are greatly understating the difference between amateurs and top players in the NHL. Watching the players coming from the feeder leagues to the NHL, you can tell that t…
