Speaking of technological gauntlet, check out their software list:
Apache, PHP, Scala, Ruby, Redis, HBase, MySQL, Varnish, HA-Proxy, nginx, Memcache, Gearman, Kafka, Kestrel, Finagle
Thrift, HTTP Func, Git, Capistrano, Puppet, Jenkins
I dunno, it seems they might do well to hire based on someone's ability to survive through a technological gauntlet. But the word useless makes the statement kind of....useless.
- secoif 15y agoIf you've done any large scale deployment this is mostly bread and butter tech.
- volkadav 15y agoThey've got at least three different programming ecosystems thrown together it looks like. Admittedly some of it may be legacy, but still most large environments I've had experience with have a bit more focused an approach. The more different moving parts you have, the more different things you have to head-scratch at when something breaks and you get a 3am page. ;)
- ceol 15y agoYeah, I could see a personal project using a good chunk of those. (Apache, nginx, memcached, MySQL, Varnish, PHP) It's definitely not outrageous to think Tumblr uses them all.
