That makes a lot of sense. Tempted to try this out now. If people would just stop coming up with all those really interesting projects, that'd be great. At some point I should probably get some actual work done...

This looks really useful. How is authentication and authorization handled? Can I connect it to my Openid provider?

Neat. Did you have a look at Hasura before you implemented this, or does your solution have other features you needed? Edit: also, Debezium might be a good backend for this, that way you would be able to support other databases than Postgre

Does anyone have experience with this vs. the Zalando Postgres operator? I'm using the latter and have been happy so far, but I'm not a heavy user.

No, i missed that. I think ive seen 'nats streaming', but didn't realize that it is its own distinct thing. All this makes more sense now to me, thanks!

Thanks, much appreciated!

This sounds interesting, what exactly do you mean by 'endpoint' in this scenario? I looked into a few alternatives before settling for pulsar, and disregarded nats because it didn't seem to support message persistence. I didn

by _frkl 7y ago
Care to elaborate? I just started using the standalone version of pulsar for a project, it looked better designed than Kafka, resources usage looks quite acceptable so far, but i dont have much experience with any solutions in this space, s

See, thats where we disagree. And thats perfectly fine, but i do honestly think we need at least one more copyleft license, one that actually works. FOSS ist just a bunch if words, which, apparently mean different things to you than they do

The author of this piece really came across as a nihilistic capitalist to you? Honestly?
101.
by _frkl 7y ago
But it's good to have the option, no? Always depends what you try to license, and in some cases I think it's good to have a very strong copyleft license available. gcc might not be it, other software might. Also, I think saying &#

I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing. In a lot of situations a plain yaml file is good enough for templating, and people seem to prefer writing those over json, for several reasons. Then, there are a lot of situations wher

Thanks, this does really look interesting. I'd like to find something generic, lightweight to replace Kafka or Pulsar. Not sure this could be it, but it looks like it'd be worth having a look at...

Norwegian, but I found 'Dag' ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dag_(Norwegian_TV_series) ) quite enjoyable, and often hilarious.

Bare repos are fine, but I don't think it is the method to manage dotfiles, the other approaches people use, stow among them, have their merits too. For me a bare repo never really worked that well. I use different dotfiles "pro

I guess that's where we disagree. I think the existence of such a license might be -- in some cases -- the one thing that motivates the author to create a project in the first place (its for me, anyway). And I don't think open-sou
107.
by _frkl 7y ago
To me, it's not really proliferation if the license addresses issues no other license addresses. Just because it adds one or more licenses to the number of existing licenses, doesn't mean those licenses should not exist. Also, as

Would you care to elaborate? To me, it seems very much in the 'spirit' of what GPL set out to do back when, updated to eliminate issues that weren't/couldn't have been forseen. Parity is not perfect (yet), but to me

If some of the text is unclear, you can submit an issue on the license' GitHub repository. Kyle (the creator of the license) considers this an issue with the license, and is very open to improve the text to eliminate any such issues re

I'd say as strongly copy left as possible, although that will inevitably bring with it some restrictions for users. Parity ( https://paritylicense.com/ ) is my favourite at the moment (created by the blog posts author)

Do you find that non-declarative configuration works for you for more complex setups? What sort of infrastructure do you typically deal with?
113.
by _frkl 7y ago
Yes, agreed. I don't think Nix nor Guix are there yet, in terms of usability (not that most current alternatives are much better, mind). But I could see a wrapping layer on top of either of them working quite well. It's difficult

by _frkl 7y ago
I mostly agree, with the caveat that in my experience, if the configuration generation stage is entirely imperative it is harder to reason about it. That might not be a problem for low-complexity setups, but can get quite important (and bad

Nice, this looks very interesting. I never had a real problem with Mitogen, so I have a lot of confidence that this will be worth buying/supporting. I don't have a need right now, but I really hope the business model behind it wo

Not sure if that would work for what you have in mind, but maybe people in the same 'realm' could all be on the same zerotier network (or maybe tinc, or something similar), and you'd have a firewall only letting the pub/

I'm optimistic, we might have to take a few steps back every now and then, but overall, I think things will improve. Whether that will happen fast enough is anybodies guess...

Interesting approach. In general, I always prefer 'Infrastructure as files' as the article calls it. I think if that's not possible in any specific scenario then we just didn't create the right abstractions yet. In the d

Neat, didnt know about CUE, this looks very interesting. Im working on my own wrapper framework (that can also do IaC, but not exclusively), and it supports optional input type specification and validation, to a point. Wish i had known abo
