If you've been using Rails for 6+ years and aren't at least passingly familiar with the majority of the source code and design decisions, then you aren't a very curious developer

Do the right thing for customers, or for shareholders?

There hasn't been a launch of its scale

its in 2.0, which is available on RHEL

The amount of time I hear - Rails, you ain't gonna need it, followed 6 months later by some version of "can we use this library to add a feature which OOTB Rails would have given us if we used it".

What is bloat, and what is a useful feature you haven't quite grown into yet, is all a matter of perspective.

I haven't yet found a project where you know 100% of what you're going to need upfront, so having a bit of depth in the toolbox is serving me well.

Where exactly does it say that you can't start by actually learning how Rails works, before you build things with it?

I think the biases of people who were experienced big system developers before they moved to Rails, are very different from those who started with it, potentially not understanding web app development very well, and then produced something challenging to maintain

Does anyone know where to find a similar list for Microsoft Sysadmins?

Its probably the most convenient window to minimise service disruption amongst users of gitlabs.

Pretty common for security patches to take place out of hours

This is why banks and lenders contribute en-masse to politicians, so they can block decisions which cause them to take a loss.

Small businesses have to accept bad debts sometimes. When dealing with sovereign debt, or other similarly large scale lending, risk is proportional to your political power vs the debtors'

Considering all the components currently in it are only available if you're in their subscription plan, that's basically the core business model.

I have to disagree here.

"fancy names == people think bulletproof" is not a credible criticism.

Now "Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control" is a fancy name!!! Pretty sure no-one with a clue thinks a product named like that is bulletproof, and its probably got significant logic/nodes etc

I apparently have the opposite experience to you. I'll often find complex distributed systems that are painful to troubleshoot when they misbehave, and find it refreshing on the other hand when someone is just using Redis, because typically THAT system is working a lot more predictable.

If people are too inexperienced to realize that ALL systems have tradeoffs, and not read up on what those are (because apparenly the name is fancy) then they'll get burned. Antirez does a pretty good job of explaining and documenting where he sees Redis limits to be.

Arguing that everyone should be home-baking their own failovers until of learning the limits of well-known ones our there doesn't seem like responsible advice.

Suggest looking into the work that the PennyArcade guys have done with Microsoft to make the Surface Pro good for illustrators.

In this case its an actual reservoir, reasonable to assume they know exactly how much case is in there.

What else are they supposed to call it? Its Amazon's tweak and modifications to the Fedora/Enterprise Linux family, tuned and tweaked for their platform

step1: build useful tool for serious people

step2: mention mongo

step3: enjoy having the room to yourself

:-P

You should put up a youtube screencast or demo of your game. It'd be a great portfolio piece at work, seems like some solid decision-making

The readme says its a learning project.

Its a very interesting piece of work though.

I'll be interested to see Antirez's view on the trade-offs between C and Rust for this.

Anyone know if you can run Wordpress on it?

It's not an exploit when its a documented, and warned feature that reduces your security since day 1.

"Warning: The docker group is equivalent to the root user; For details on how this impacts security in your system, see Docker Daemon Attack Surface for details."

FUD

The link to the copyright dispute certainly seems easy to understand

https://www.kickstarter.com/dmca/goblins-alternate-realities...

If this is correct, then Kickstarter profits off the theft of someone else's IP, and damages the original content creators business.

But being American, isn't this just the sort of things people get sued for damages over?

They do, but a real ruby on rails site typically serves most html content out of memcache, even higher for users that aren't logged into the platform. Its not unknown to see 5-10ms response times in those scenarios
