bharatkhatri14··on Introducing Fly Edge Apps
Edge, the term, is really popular in IIoT/5G space. It's now a continuum of services - Cloud, Fog/Edge, Mist, Dew. I agree that some of it is just marketing jargon but Fog/Edge as a concept is now well understood. References: (1) Open Fog Consortium (https://www.openfogconsortium.org/) (2) Edge Computing (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edge_computing)

Remember Shuri remotely driving a car from Wakanda. Well looks like Wakanda isn't that futuristic because Nvidia took it too seriously. It's called Holodeck: https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/design-visualization/technologi...

bharatkhatri14··on Service discovery at Stripe
What are the DNS servers being used for? The request flow says that the request hits your load balancer (HAProxy) which is updated every 60s using Consul templates.

They also say that DNS records are updated every 60s using Consul templates. But when are the DNS servers used for service discovery if external requests always hit the load balancer (HAProxy)?

bharatkhatri14··on Kivy – Open-source Python library for rapid development of applications
I've always been confused about open-source projects that go big on marketing themselves.

Building a good community around open-source projects holds obvious advantages as you'd always need contributors to push the project through its future generations.

As far as I can see, Kivy is supported by a group of independent developers. Kivy (as a group) must have spent money in marketing the product, launching developer contests, publishing books on Kivy (I've seen a couple books on Kivy by O'reilly), and other stuff. I'm just curious to know in what other ways, apart from the need to grow the community around your project, does marketing your open-source project help? And is the money put into marketing the project contributed by the creators themselves?
