None of them is on a standard unmodded Rails stack.

OT: While I like how FB is recently struggling, I have to say that their open source contributions and the teams working on those are by far the best in this industry. I hope they …

This is normal, people come and go and Sam is a superb guy. The communication about his leaving though, was subpar (to use a polite wording) and seems just off. No strong appreciat…

OT: people often confuse being in tech with being an employed programmer. The key is to code but not as an employee or contractor. Then, being in tech is a joy.

Agree. It's not art but an unfounded fear that one might steal/fork the source and get more credits.

Couldn't agree more. Just look at Google Tends. Because Elixir is dying they do more and more content marketing: https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?geo=US&q=%2Fm%2F0pl... In …

Best question in this thread and I am looking fwd to an answer. I guess that just very few mastered Elixir and k8s.

Nice and looking fwd!

Get a CDN from Cloudflare, takes 5min + 5min distribution and makes many people happy.

Page doesn't load... Edit: Just saw in another comment that the website has problems for 2h. How can a submission from a for 2h down server be on number one at HN? Why the downvote…

Valid but just look: Good Windows notebooks are so cheap, you can have a second device lying around in case of emergency. IDK if you have the moeny for a second Macbook, whatever m…

Tedious post lacking relevant content. The answer is simple, you could code on an iPad with a SSH client and a fast remote server. But because of lacking browser dev tools it is no…

Slightly OT: Why are the loading times of Apple's Appstore so slow? Do the run this rhing from ARM servers without any CDN or caching? Guess it's just the lack of competition but w…
