The problem with Cargo is it only builds rust. I agree it's the best language-specific build tool, but I love the monorepo pattern and future proofing insurances that modern language agnostic build systems like Bazel enable / provide.

Yep I bet she could - don't let the way I described my use of it as a 'poweruser' (via the cli) scare you off...the browser extensions are very user friendly, just ctrl-shift-L and fill out a few inputs

Lesspass generates reproducible unique passwords from inputs (username, domain, masterpassword). It works without an internet connection and is open source. You only need their cloud storage if you want to backup metadata about the password requirements for specific sites (i.e, no special chars allowed by foo.com, bar.com requires a capital letter and a number, etc.) This metadata can also be stored locally. The command line utility is great, they also offer Mozilla / chrome extensions and mobile apps. I bash alias the command line command to copy the password into clipboard so when I navigate to a site on my laptop, I run genp chase or genp amazon and quickly have the pw ready to go in my clipboard. The apps / extensions and even the cli uses emojis as a visual cue to let you know you typed in the correct masterpassword (since it's masked)

I love it. Coroutines make async code concise and much cleaner than Java completable futures, Kotlin is a supported gRPC language, and the gRPC service signatures are much cleaner than the java gRPC service signatures, and there is decent Bazel support. I think the biggest threat to this language is the $399 iPhone.

This looks great and I wish my company adopted the monorepo & bazel. The navigation to //devtools from the link you shared results in a 404 however - perhaps the tool's routing is confused by the bazel "//<project>" syntax? Maybe not as I see the url path looks correct, maybe parent directory links should not show as active if there is nothing to serve in the parent directory.

So would this be similar to Apache Ignite?

Stupid question because I am very new to embedded programming and C (I started my journey this weekend), but could one use freertos's tasks library in a regular x86 desktop application to accomplish something similar?

it's a public company, its shares are tradeable on exchanges

We email them around lol. Wish we used istio.

Lets use Bazel, and Bazel's rules_k8s to build\containerize\test\deploy only the microservices of my monorepo that changed.

Lets use Istio's "istioctl manifest apply" to deploy a service mesh to my cluster that allows me to pull auth logic / service discovery / load balancing / tracing out of my code and let Istio handle this.

Lets configure my app's infrastructure (Kafka (Strimzi), Yugabyte/Cockroach, etc) as yaml files. Being able to describe my kafka config (foo topic has 3 partitions, etc) in yaml is priceless.

Lets move my entire application and its infrastructure to another cloud provider by running a single bazel command.

k8s is the common denominator that makes all this possible.

This question brings to mind a recent experience I had with Scaleway support. I pay maybe 25 euro a month to host my k8s based application on their managed k8s offering.I did not pay the extra 2 euro a month for an upgraded support tier. I encountered an issue when deploying istio to the cluster, pinged the scaleway support chat on a saturday, and they had figured out the bug on their end and had a fix eta estimate within a few minutes and had the fix in the next business day. Those guys have fantastic support.

I would argue that using postgres today sets you up better for HA tomorrow, as both yugabyte and cockroachdb are built with postgresql compatability in mind. I would also argue your reputation as a competent CTO / Architect / whatever is more at risk by choosing Oracle in 2020.

A financial exchange - order messages are routed to Kafka and partitioned by the instruments symbol, match engines associated with a given set of symbols consume from their assigned partition. When a match-engine goes down it can reconstruct the order book by replaying from a given offset.
