My current theory is that the severed workers are actually monitoring silos.

You should be off pudding

I’m super happy to see more products popping up in this category. However that looks terrible to type on though. Flat, low and barely any stagger. Also it kind of looks like a toaster. Idk. Not for me I guess, hehe. But still, a good sign!

Agree, I actually wrote a multiline dual sided powerline inspired prompt with modular segments (info from git/pyenv etc) in bash exactly to get these fancy shiny things without having to introduce new dependencies. I log into any server, pull my config and bob’s your uncle. (Btw, that expression is so weird). Ofc, to have the powerline look I would need custom fonts on the client terminal but I usually don’t enable them as I’ve added other “themes” instead.

This looks really cool! But is there a tool like this that only does the remote browser?

If you had bothered to notice that other people do things differently you’d realize that some of us always skim a text before deciding on if it’s worth our attention. Sometimes we win by not wasting our time, sometimes you win by reading something interesting that looked boring on the surface. Don’t be so judgmental.

I wrote down my experiences with building delivery platforms, which answers some of this. Might be interesting https://blog.brujordet.no/post/devops/building-a-delivery-pl...

But with regards to purely technical stuff like what tools to choose and how to use them you’ll need experience, either your own or someone elses. There’s really no replacement in my opinion. I had loads of experienced people around me previously, but now that I work more or less alone in the field I rely a lot on community slack channels for the various tools and debugging. It’s amazing to be stuck trying to figure out how to best use Loki for logging, jump on their slack and get advice from the Lead Engineer working on the tool. Or getting input on what tools to use from 50 different people in different companies through /r/devops on reddit.

Great points, and I agree. But… As someone with ADHD one of the less talked about problems is remembering things that aren’t happening right now. Friends and family are the biggest problems in this category. And friends eventually stop reaching out because I just don’t think about contacting them without there being a specific reason for doing so. It’s not because I don’t care, it just doesn’t come up in my busy brain. And the few times I do remember they’re almost shocked that I reached out.

It is very painful to lose friends you care about. It’s much worse to lose them because you made them feel unimportant by not staying in touch. An app like this could really help in that way. Just by being the nudge to start the interaction.

Times (and words) are changing

Some bash scripts

Not sure, but I suspect a google coral might be able to do this?

How exactly are you deploying with docker compose? In my head the only approach would be to somehow sync the docker compose file(s) to a server, have them use the latest tag, and then have something like watchtower regularly check for updates on the images and restart the service.

Is there some well defined way of doing this remotely from say a Gitlab pipeline?

The one thing that really bugs me about the OAuth flow is what is described as step 3. When the application who wants to access data on your behalf is redirected to a login page where the user enters credentials and grants access.

In many apps, these login redirects happen inside the app window, hiding the url. And even if the URL isn’t hidden, there’s suddenly a browser window inside my app and many unconscious “security checks” fail to load.

I’d much rather have the OAuth provider send me an email or get a notification that can be actioned within the OAuth providers app so that I know I’m not giving my credentials to something that looks like the OAuth providers sign in page.

There is seldom need for praise, that's what makes the praise mean something. Some stranger took the time to thank a person for doing something. Huge high five, probably felt good for both of them. I don't think we should discourage positive human interaction.

Would you like some Apple Pie?

Thanks! IIRC those are either set as env variables or in the aws cli config file so it should be very easy to add. I’ve been meaning to add a proper AWS segment as I’m about to start using AWS again myself.

Ah I just read through the code to figure this out, because I wanted to know what other formats exist. Should’ve checked the comments first. Thanks :)

Yes and no. It depends on the team and the culture. My favorite was when I worked in a team of only senior engineers we would leave comments like 's/this/that/g other than than LGTM'. This was all that was needed, no fluff.

In other teams, a comment like this would have meant a chat with HR. We can't make rules for these things, because people and thus teams are different.

If you fuck up I don't really care about an apology. I want to know:

  1. How will you fix it? 
  2. How will you prevent it from happening again?

An apology, in my head atleast, is for when you have caused emotional distress to someone and there isn't much you can physically do to fix it other than to convey how you now feel about what you have done. When you make a practical mistake an apology is implied by you fixing it.

Nice write-up Galo! As an ex-Deliveriarian I really enjoyed working this way, and the timing is perfect as I’m trying to set up a similar but way smaller PaaS. I’ll be borrowing this text :D

You can’t passively consume anything. You say you have to interpret meaning from words. Sure, but.. What about faces? Tone of voice? Body language?

Not every developer is a professional either. I don’t think it’s unreasonable to fragment this space.

Yeah, this is why i use Vimwiki[0] both for notes and todo lists. Nested checkboxes and easy navigation through page links. It is vim specific though so that might be a problem for some.

Imagine doing a code review where someone wrote a function “getKeyValuePair” and it’s actually a method to post it. No :angry-no-face:

Yeah I agree. They look a bit wobbly. But, powerline support out of the box is nice to see.

Agreed, I just wish it could be a bit more customisable. like so https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?109610

fzf asks you if you want to enable this during installation.

Did you get it to work? It just hung after an uncaught exception for me.

Edit: had to disable 2FA to get it to work.

And my axe!

You just remap whatever keys are in that position. For me on Dvorak that would be ",aoe".
