The cortex tool mentioned looks really useful to get a service running out of a trained model. Though I didn't really understand what the article is trying to get at. Storing your deployment configuration in yaml and json files is pretty much the standard.

Perhaps for young people it's actually necessary to mention JSON and YAML as you people tend to read the news rather than history or best practises textbooks?

  Many hyped development and administration practices make me snarky, too, but let's not take it out on random (young) people on the Internet. There's a great deal of history and best practices that are being ignored not just by ADHD juniors, but also by team leads and managers of every seniority level. Lots of people out there spend decades in the industry, build solid careers based on playing the right office politics cards and being friends with the right people, and miraculously manage not to learn almost anything. (Edit: also, clearly, I don't read the news -- is YAML being "superseded"? By what now??)

    Ha! The parent might be right about the young people though I'd think the reason for reinventing things is a lot more people writing code and preferring different styles. That is a positive! I don't think YAML/JSON are being superseded, but I'd really love for something like Cue (https://cuelang.org/ https://cuelang.org/) to become the standard for storing configuration.

    > is YAML being "superseded"? By what now??) i hope by something that isn't the kitchen sink... i actually prefer XML and i hate XML. started looking at https://dhall-lang.org/# https://dhall-lang.org/# which compiles to json/yaml, is seriously strongly typed and explicitly not Turing-complete both as a design goal and current reality.

    I read "young people" as "young in their career people". It's truly exasperating to see the wheel reinvented again, and again, and again, and again (I felt like typing that a lot more but I'll stop there :)). There are so many subtle lessions in this field, will there ever be any hope of recording and communicating them? Seems not likely.
