This is super helpful. Thank you

Will Pulumi AI also have ECS as part of it? Imagine the learning curve will be much less steep with Pulumi AI :).

Congratulations on the release! I have a question about the YAML DSL for ESC. Yaml is pretty convenient and easy to read when there isn't a lot of nesting but it can become unwieldy quickly and hard to make sense of, especially when you are referencing other fields. How good is the linting/intellisense to figure out if you are making a mistake in your references without having to compile?

Great post, love the use of Open Policy Agent and Conftest!

I really like Apache Drill. I used it about 4 years ago as an MPP SQL on Anything Engine. Presto took a lot of that momentum away and MapR failed to adapt to the new age kind of meant EOL for the project. I hope someone else picks it up.

It's about time I install WebThings on my Pi and give this a try. Really cool demo!

A few comments:

1. I'm usually down on dark-mode but this looks clean as hell 2. The JupyterHub integration looks nice! It was mentioned in the article it was the "tip of the iceberg" I'm wondering how hard it would be to integrate with a tool like Observable.

Observable: https://observablehq.com/

We have a subscription (For about 3 months) and it's been a great value for us. We order things like bread, some staples for our 2-year-old and some other packaged goods for about $40 a week. Walmart uses DoorDash for delivery in our area and we can usually place an order and have it delivered 2-3 hours later.

One negative aspect of using the service is Walmart seems to have a hard time knowing what will be in stock even a few hours from order. Every order we've done (around 12) has had a missing item due to it being out of stock.

Seems eerily similar to Buttondown(https://buttondown.email)

I JUST signed up for their service this week. :(.

I must say this is the first time I've been really impressed by a client-side, real-time implementation. The API is simple and I can imagine building something real-time without thinking about the translation from one protocol to another like I would with web-sockets for example. I've never written a line of Elixir, but this is interesting enough for me to try it.

I've been an Evernote premium subscriber for 4 years. I love Evernote and use it everyday. I haven't found a tool with as high quality of a web clipper, great search and optical character recognition and intergrations with everything. Will be sad to see it go if it does.

My background: B.A. In Math and Economics. Been working as a software engineer for 6 years now. I have been in the program for about 1.5 years. I've really enjoyed it and learned a ton. I've also been able to pay the full cost of tuition out of pocket. I agree with others in the thread that it depends on context.

I don't think it will have an immediate impact on my earnings or place in my company, but I think the long term value of having it far exceeds what I'm paying for it.

I wish it had support for Tablo!

I have had a Beddit for many years now. It's a great device and hope they can make some waves with Apple.

Some great points in this article. I've found that meetups happen a bit too frequently. I think instead of monthly, they should probably be quarterly.

Pay after delivery on Amazon would sure be nice.

I use Intellij. Mostly work in the JVM so it's the right choice. Pretty heavy, but we're all used to that in JVM land.

Great write up!

I've had similar experience with startup and installation while running on Packet with much more beefy machines. Overall, DCOS is really nice to have but it is not without it's headaches so far.

I've written a few blog posts where I used Rvest to get data and R's great visualization tools to visualize it. R has a ton of issues as a platform and language but this is a fantastic package and it has a great ecosystem for small data (the majority of data).

I interviewed at MasteryConnect 2 years ago and their business model seemed doomed.

I've been using this for a little while. The RESTful interface is pretty cool for stuff that isn't natively part of the interface.

I've given some thought to switch from being on the backend for SaaS companies to working at a hedge fund or bank. I'm just not sure it would be a good cultural fit and it might be hard to make the adjustment from the tech standpoint.

This is a refreshing take, although maybe extended a bit too far. It seems like this kind of thinking is mostly in the real of software on the web and not necessarily on the systems side of things.

Twitter is by far the #1 service I use everyday. It's been the most valuable to me from a networking perspective where I've made friends and professional connections. I also happen to be a shareholder. It's been disappointing to watch Twitter try to become a business and completely falling flat.

The acquisition of Vine and Periscope haven't led to much and the user growth from Live video is still t be seen.

The product is immensely complicated compared to something like Instagram or Snapchat. It manages to be everything and nothing at the same time. I've been a fan of Jack Dorsey's work at Square but monetization is a complete different animal in that industry.

To summarize I just don't know what the future of Twitter as a business will hold but I guess I'm here for the ride.

I did see this. While interesting, it's pretty rudimentary in the Data world. Google is supposedly developing a TensorFlow API for Go, would be interesting to see deployments of that.

I've looked at Julia once or twice but at the time it wasn't mature enough to do what I needed. Sounds like I should give it another look though.

I've been watching Go from the sidelines for 2 years now. I do data engineering work and most of that is on the JVM (Spark, Scalding, Hadoop, Kafka). I wonder if there will ever be a push for Go in that space.

I know NSQ has been implemented with some good success but I see a lot more systems and web server articles about go thank any data engineer or scientific computing.

My thoughts exactly.

I forgot Glenn Beck was alive until I scrolled past this.
