Can you imagine being a product manager at Facebook? You are competing against other product managers and people at the company to be a rising star or to get that big bonus. You are rated on the code that makes it to production and it'

It's interesting; in the past companies were afraid of open source because some of it had no direct support, you couldn't yell at someone if something goes wrong, and "how can you trust something you just downloaded from the

I definitely see that an emergency evacuation for ~6.5 million people would have resulted in a similar result as the evacuation for Rita. I feel uncomfortable just scaling up for the rescue mission while people hang around. It seems way too

Cops being able to keep what they find in a drug bust sounds like it creates some horrible incentives and that a policy like that would almost always be negative for the person apprehended.

I agree with you that these things should probably start with monoliths and then migrate to microservices. I'm lucky that the project that I'm working on has support to use JHipster ( https://jhipster.github.io/ ) w
