Why not support the author's own website? It looks like a nice website

I agree that it makes more sense to buy your Kubernetes on an organizational basis because one should not reinvent the wheel, and taking advantage of a commoditized service is only…

IMO "use something managed" gets reduced to "we shan't run Kubernetes on-premises" which ends up meaning "we won't learn anything about failure modes until it's too late to think a…

LOL you'll have to get your socks somewhere else. The microservices demo is officially deprecated and archived: https://github.com/microservices-demo/microservices-demo I have seen…

It makes sense if you take in context that Flux, the most visible and well-known product of Weaveworks, is a donated CNCF open source project, and that companies like Microsoft, VM…

I still use it, shamefully, ex-Weaveworks employee - there is a fork I can recommend which has a live maintainer, actively interested in keeping it up: https://github.com/rajch/wea…

I have been away from Jenkins for a while, that all sounds like stuff I never used, (thanks!)

Flux has a pinned discussion for nearly a month now, to be as upfront as possible, without being able to disclose anything that might be privileged information, but anticipating th…

> a bunch of snowflake workloads by design (or bad design). That's a really interesting characterization of WGE, and I can't say I disagree much (my personal opinion as an ex-Wyver…

What does Jenkins do that you can't do with GH Actions and Flux?

It was over 100 at the peak, I'm not sure how many of us were left last month. You're not far off.

Sudden? We finally archived the repo at the end of 2022. https://fluxcd.io/flux/migration/timetable/ I was hired to support Flux v1 two years after the events you described, in the…

Awesome, I was fishing for open source links, I salute you thanks for sharing :)

Is this really the same 16 year old RubyFlow that authenticates against GitHub? I found a copy looking for the source but it looks like it is literally 16 years old, and I'm thinki…

It looks like every software dev in the entire country is either laid off today or adjacent to someone that was. Yikes indeed.

Tl;Dr: in the past, if you hired developers and made no money, you could choose to either classify that work as R&D or Maintenance. From a business perspective it matters because R…

I hate this. You're talking about S174 tax code changes, right? I'm here making a hard decision about whether to remain in a field of work that could be classified as either R&D or…

Yes, there is Lucee; I never used it, but when I was briefly asked to take on some Coldfusion work almost two jobs ago, I remember that I found it looked to be a vibrant and active…

Well, I told you I knew it was a myopic view. I understand that investor can come back, and I know they might try their luck again. I appreciate your frank response, and I'd be wil…

> rent out their property > are paying property taxes Call me prejudiced, but I went from renter to home-owner in the last half-decade and I don't see the rentier class as really c…

Or, there's always been more than enough housing in many localities for the local demand, but those people are not buying houses because they've been priced out by sophisticated in…

There is a whole gulf of room between "we are the incumbent and there is no viable alternative in any language for JavaScript developers" and "the Rust folks have done it, there's …

I think that was the point. If it wasn't clear enough that your ellipses are meant to be showing some thing that was elided, put them in a comment. (In this case, the article used …

You can pass positional arguments because that's how arguments have typically been passed in the history of computing. You can pass keyword arguments because they are much less amb…

Fun fact, Ruby as a single-threaded language is probably the only way how most people experience it, but... Ruby has a rich cooperative multitasking called Fibers that hopefully is…
