Did you do hot updates? I ser that is mention in the post, but I thought the community has walked away from it? Or at least that its mixed feelings about it?

Hmm, context matter a lot. Im not sure on what you consider large development projects, so maybe its even bigger then what I'm thinking on. But getting the apis between apps up and ready early and getting a working setup from the database team to the frontend teams and apps teams trough some kind of backend/api team has always proven to be the correct choice for me. Also getting it as fast as possible on to a production server so its just the dns missing from beeing in production help so much for testing and highlights bug and other problems between teams. So the author mostly talks about this from a code perspective, but IMHO its even more important on larger teams.

(Sidenote: having this kind of architecture where you create layer of deps from one team to another is a bad idea from my point of view, but is still done a lot)

I think a big big reason for that there is no Big tech companies in Europe is really that the landscape is so much more diverse then in the US.

If you are big in one state in the US. You have the same lang and most likely the same regulations. In Europe its so many languages and its no more likely that we choose a company from another country in the EU vs the US.

I think that is not true for the US. So its easier to get big in the US, and then you are so big its actually likely the a company in the EU would choose you. Maybe not over another company from the same country (everything else beeing equal), but over a company from another country in the EU/Europe

It was a bit hard to understand what is coming and what deprecated. As soon as i went into documentation I was send to "darklang classic".

How are the deployless senario now? Where you first serve only yourself then your team, then beta, then everyone... Or something similar to that. I really liked how that story was told and how much complexity it removed

I guess darklang was too far ahead in their thinking in some areas and choose the wrong path for other. I really liked the deployless idea, but would have loved in even more on-premise. No way to get the data to stay in Europe.

Making hard connections between the editor and the lang was interesting also. Seems like they have moved away from that.

Hope there is a easy way to set it up locally, i was really intrigued when they first launched

Because slower humans have intelligence?

Being the best European AI company is also a multi billion business. Its not like China or the US respects GDPR. A lot of companies will choose the best European company.

Really cool!

Only 1 commit :/ Would love to see the prompts and how you iterated on this

100% this. The biggest problem I see is understanding the context of what you are building. Even inside a SaaS company. Are you building a feature that is a core part of the service or just a test shot to see if its possible to sell,or maybe you already sold something to a customer that is not your target customer. Yhey still need it and should get it. But maybe its more important to be quick and dirty. if its a core part, Then you need to make sure the architecture is good and maybe even add more test then normal. Context matter so much

I wish more people would understand that it's a big middle between monolith ans microservice ans that it most likely the correct for most situations.

Context and nuances

What type of content is removed from US counterparts? Porn, creation of chemical weapons? But not on historical events?

I did not understand it as an ordered list? Just a set of 6 items. Did i miss anything? What makes you conclude that this is a priortized list? Profitability is number 6. Who cares about internal quality if you are not making money in the long run

But the customer installed CS software could do this. So they are partly to blame. I do not think you will find that tesla would allow a third party update to its car. Or a oil rig would allow third party updates to critical parts of its systems. So its understanding the context. I think a lot of places this is an risk that is ok. But maybe not everywhere. And I hope some companies with critical systems will learn from this

> Your job as a sw engineer/architect is to resist the "just ship it" pressure from the management as much as possible. So unless you own what you're coding and you really need it out of the door for your own benefit, if more time makes your work more professional, then take more time. Anyone telling you otherwise is a 100% hack. You are not an automaton that takes in JIRA tickets and spits out hacky code as soon as possible. Or at least you shouldn't be. Not to mention that not taking time (doing things properly) is incredibly taxing on your psyche and you WILL burn out. There are only so much garbage tasks you can take.

Any job, In any industry at any level should be working together with your manager to understand what the company goal and how to achive that. Its always going to be time/price vs quality if you work on creating software or clothing or whatever. There are properly companies and managers that do not care.. but imbany healthy organisation this should be the case. There is not garbage tasks. Its tasks that needs to be done. Any understanding that not all tasks that needs to be done in an organisation is fun but needs to be done is a sign of maturity that you want from your employees

100% agree. Maybe you should be the amazing cto.

Context always matters.

Good webpage and nice job with all the different infra/deploy options.

well done, will try it out!

Did you try all levels? exactly your message did not work on level 7.

Getting it to tell a story and mask the keyword somehow worked for me up to level 7. But i seem to be stuck there

> too big to regulate.

I guess you are from the US and not EU? It's when they get too big and abuse their monopoly they will be regulated.

AFAIK nvidia have not done anything to abuse its power yet, but its hard for big companies to not use their monopoly in a illegal way since its always a good a Market strategy just illegal

Yes if the site is down you loose reader/buyers (in the end money)

But keeping the site up also cost money. So context is really important here. How much money do you spend on the last % of availability vs how much money so you loose on downtime. In my experience people have a more complicated setup then needed because of availability, but at the same time have not tested a real DR scenario.

Great list.

Using devbox myself and very happy with it.

Would be great to hear what separates flox from the rest.

Stripe does this (prefix ids with object type). Its smart. Makes it much easier to work with the ids.

I feel devbox[1] is really good here. And solves the painpoints your addressing. You do not really need to get into the details of nix but get the benefits.

But it do not seems to have gotten the love I feel it deserves from the nix community.

Lowering their cost makes Tesla in a position to lower they prices if they want to. Lowering prices because the demand is low is OK if you have better margin then you competitors and as far as I can tell they are making more money per car. Its natural that they decrease prices to sell more. But as long as they are making money on each car and is taking more and more market share I think they are happy.

Your right, maybe my formulation was a bit clumsy. I'm not arguing that Tesla is driving the price down for consumers (more then necessary).

I agree that they use price to regulate demand. But they want to sell as much as they can. So if the price is too high they will not sell out all cars. And they can afford to lower prices more then many of their competitors because they earn more per unit sold then the rest of the field [source: https://asia.nikkei.com/Business/Automobiles/Tesla-earns-5-t... ]

Not sure I understand you argument here. Toyota is way bigger then tesla. A quick Google search [1] shows that tesla makes 8x of what Toyota is making pr car. (Des 2022)

I do not follow tesla that closely, but do they not work hard on lowering the manufacturing price (fewer parts, creating batteri themselves) do that they can sell at a lower price, and if they can sell and still make money but the competitors have to either sell with a loss or have highere prices?

I think most of windmills enterprises customers do it the code to git way.

I have chosen another part where i deploy and then it's automatically push to git. Buy windmill proves you with 3-4 really good ways of deploying from 1 cowboy just doing what he wants to the normal EE way of doing software meaning code-in-git and people only have read access to production and can not modify things. You can have separate instance running or just separate workspaces and promote.

So that is the self hosted enterprise version. You can selfhost for free. It does not ping back home. But if you download all the resource types from the windmill hub you will send a http request to them.

I do not believe the EE version pings back either as of now. But I think the plan is to report back with usage. Or i need to report it manually.

Nope you can totally do it. It also has a drag and drop app builder and support most frameworks as long as it is build in a certain way.

Very interesting. Thanks
