The eternal question is what happen if customers are more opinionated than creator? Thinking along line of custom motorcycle industry vs SaaS customization.

Any comparison/thoughts about how salesforce address these issues DHH talking about?

Why so?

Feels the same. I'm a paid subscriber. FWIW - I love their UI

I was looking for trial period too.

I originally thought it is a really story about `input` like the one with `printf` - http://ferd.ca/the-little-printf.html

AWESOME

Kudos to Germany.

Go/Node/Scala/Elixir all are good choices - Go for scalable distributed multi node deployment architectures.

There is nothing called senior skills. As long as you cover a-z in given project from css, caching to backups an monitoring. you're pro.

> What I’m describing here is not a technical problem. It’s a matter of people getting together and making a decision to step forward and start building up something bigger and cooler together.

I've always liked that.

You mean homeless peoples urinating in SF..

This really bothers me. Any ideas to cure this issue with local/government support. I would like to explore more about current solutions in terms of what worked and what not worked so far (with numbers, of course).

Thinking of starting some kind of kickstarter campaign to solve this in few villages and let the community/government to replicate this model to everywhere in India.

Profound.

No. Unless you're into non-profit, education etc..

My 2 cents. (By the i really love the recent MS efforts - When was the last time heard M$? Can't think of it..)

I heard a lot of good things about Powershell. Why don't you start from there? I see it is a 'carrot' hook. Build an friendly/developer centric ecosystem based on that and build it from there..

If you really look at vagrant/docker/ansible ecosystem, It's all about cli/api/scriptable and disposable environments. Can't we come up with some kind of framework (called Ultron, for example) which nicely wraps around vms/containers/cmt tools based on powershell semantics with full integration of Azhure. I would love to check that out.

Any effort to bring Azure into developer desktop/laptop to play around would be compelling for devs.

Great news. Like Rails + Merb merge. We should give awards for these achievements. In our field, forking is easy - but merging is up hill battle.

Kudos to whoever made it happen.

Start with vagrant/ansible, then move on to AWS/DigitalOcean. After few months, you can call yourself 'Cloud Architect'

Couple of quotes comes to mind related to abstraction.

    Premature Optimization is like fart: Premature Abstraction is like a taking dump in another developer desk

More less blunt version of that

    Premature optimization, that's like a sneeze. Premature abstraction is like ebola; it makes my eyes bleed.

Oh. I see this today nice. I always liked HashiCorp folks.
