In your last sentence, the converse also applies to would be trendsetters denigrating mature technologies. I think that the key problem is that people in this industry are quick to play the denigration card in order to…

+1 tannhaeuser. I live in a more heterogeneous environment than what docker can provide, and it seems to me that the ground docker covers is like you said, application packaging. This is frustrating since in a lot of…
And the mainframes that run our banks, transportation systems, healthcare, public safety.. etc etc. Use the right tool for the job, price it against what the market will bear. Pacemakers and insulin pumps driven by npm…
Tech pop-culture... Navigating these technology growth explosions is like searching for solid reference architecture in a booming shantytown. Some parts of these settlements eventually get things like running water,…
Thanks softawre, what triggered me is the sensationalist title and general bashing of monorepo's (which a large percentage of impressionable readers will walk away from this article thinking, ie: that monorepo's are…
One thing I heavily enjoy about monorepo's (I'm talking java/c#/c++ projects) is the ability to navigate the entire codebase from within an ide. That alone has caused me to migrate projects (medium projects ~20…
Yes! This brings to mind Donald Knuth: "Premature optimization is the root of all evil."
Here here yowlingcat. Article is a way too prescriptive and agreed, borders on irresponsible. Monorepo vs polyrepo argument is way too broad a subject to create generalized stereotypes like this. These opinions sadly…
I'm still fighting the sneaking suspicion that putting kubernetes/etc out to the general public and having such a fast release cycle was just a genius play by the big cloud vendors to acquire customers (who will realize…
At the risk of tarnishing my reputation amongst the hacker news docker/kubernetes hypecycle elite, have an upvote. The I.T. industry in general is funny. New technologies come and go like pop stars. Docker == ke$ha,…
Do you hear that whooshing sound? It's the point I was making that flew right by you.
Let me clarify, proxmox (or the vsphere web ui for example), would be a fantastic management ui on top of the smartos engine that would bring some gravity to accrete userbase. Some organizations are just more…
Love SmartOS! IMHO zones set the bar on containers back in the 2000's, and SmartOS is the evolved logical progression of this. It's truly a ferrari. However, it needs a paint job to accrete community. If you want a…
Job Scheduling.. We're using jenkins heavily at one of my clients sites for this (it's already used for builds, so scheduling jobs didn't seem that far afield..) The thing I'm missing, and would love to know if exists,…
April fools trolling experiment: recast something like perl5/cgi as the new backend web hotness with an edgy name and flashy tutorials. But does perl5 even need hype? Soon it'll age into retro-chic status, ala lisp. :)
This +1000. :) People, remembering to focus on core-competencies, making the world a better place.
Thanks shoo, that made me chuckle - maybe I'm feeling a bit too angsty this Friday evening. I love all of the new development, we're going great places, we just need to prescribe the right medicine for the patients so…
> Containers allow you to move apps trivially between environments and guarantee that they will just work. Assuming your staff can keep your cluster un-screwed, am I right? Technologies like vmware, (which also give you…
That would come as a surprise. Solaris is alive and well thank god https://www.oracle.com/solaris/solaris11/index.html
That perspective is a case by case. From the perspective of a sysadmin who is powerless to make decisions and not taken seriously by his/her management, maybe you're right. From the perspective of a consultant or…
