Agreed. The application is what matters... in the end most people don't care about what Operating System their apps run on. I've felt for a long time that with the right tooling, smartOS/Illumos would make an ideal Container

Excited to see this. Congrats to the team on the release!

Uh... major red flag imo. I recommend your friend stays put and finds a way to slowly tiptoe into startuplandia. The job offer he got sounds like it isn't a good fit in a lot of ways. Some companies are crazier than others... a lot cra

People have been working around the limitations of lvm and Linux raid for years... it's not such a big deal. The issue with BTRFS is the stability and consistent performance, especially when the disk gets close to being full. Would def

The author wants zfs to support growing and shrinking pools in a specific way that it doesn't support. However it's clear from the docs that you can grow zfs pools by adding new vdevs. Shrinking a pool is not possible. In practi

Neat! I'll probably take you up on that. :-) I was definitely impressed by the pulldocker err... now pullcontainer project and think it'd be great to see how you secure your containers and handle networking.

Cool project. Are you continuing to develop it?

by 23david 12y ago
Yep. In my experience, I've seen that the issue isn't with Mesos the Apache project, but rather with Marathon and Chronos, which are the applications built by Mesosphere. There's a big naming and marketing confusion at the mo

Iterative improvement ftw. But I find that honestly it is fairly unique to artistic pursuits and not science/engineering work.

Devops can definitely be used as a very expensive bandaid around poor engineering practices. But there's more to it... sometimes the engineering work it takes to prevent something from crashing is much less than just monitoring and res

Not news. This is an old article from August 2014.

Military families have a ton of existing social and community support structures to help ease the difficulty of military deployments. Startup culture is not developed to nearly the same degree. But there are possibly easier solutions to con

For most teams, I definitely recommend getting started with a hosted elasticsearch option initially, and after validating a POC, only then consider a move to self-managed. Check out https://bonsai.io as a hosted option... I&#x27

Interesting. Are there any references or good articles you've seen that go into those details about Belgium? Never heard that before.

So... what happens if an employee gets sick or has personal issues that lead to less than stellar performance? Termination?

Essentially it's a culture of elitism. Reminds me of Ivy League. It can work, but it's hard to scale and in my experience it's very hard to avoid a monoculture. How diverse is the population of engineers at Netflix compared t

Why not build your system out to be cloud agnostic and test out different providers?

For IAAS providers, you should care about the uptime of the regions (datacenter) that you are planning to use and the uptime of the specific services that your vms will use within those datacenters. In particular, I recommend paying close a

Do you find it useful / helpful for the engineering org to do this in a rigorous fashion? Seems like it could be misused very easily. Just curious.
