I wonder why HashiCorp needs to raise more money as they seem fairly profitable and in a very good position in the market? Why dilute your stocks and ownership of the company?

100% this. Usually reviewing code of juniors one of the things that appear the most is how they try to apply patterns they read online to over abstract things that do not need to be abstracted instead of solving the business issue with the

You do realize Canada is a first world country just like the US is right? They have strong relations but they still are separate countries.

Trudeau mentioned it is just for people, trading and "deliveries" continue as usual.

I find this post very condescending. You are not better than your devops guy at managing infrastructure because you can code in Clojure or GoLang or whatever other programming language.

I have been using Ansible for over four years now, my current use case has around 1k VMs and a handful of baremetal in a couple of different datacenters running 100s of services. No orchestration as well FWIW, we usually have ansible config

Unfortunately even if you're starting a new project chances are that your dependencies are using cmake and they expect their dependencies to use cmake... in the end of the day you spend a lot of time fixing the upstream projects build

I bought a gaming PC that was around 1K cad so nothing too crazy but still miles away from a laptop in performance. A Microsoft-Ergonomic-Wireless-Bluetrack-Desktop combo of mouse and keyboard, a 80 bucks computer chair (I might upgrade it

Wonder if they have some source code examples, this also seems very similar to DDD.

The concept of fixing corporate culture seems like a weird one, if you remove corporate and go for the generic term, can you "fix culture"? I think what you can do is influence the culture of a company and reap the rewards, having

Yes! My company has source that is 20-30 years old, sometimes just going through the history to see who has committed on it and checking if that person is still in the company is already a win, other times there's a code review link or

This is interesting! Do you have some material on load testing the DNS servers and seeing their breaking point? I've heard as much from other people but never experienced it in practice even using Consul with 0 TTL everywhere. Perhaps

by aprdm 7y ago
Then you have a dependency on zookeeper when you already have consul... it seems like consul template + nginx or haproxy is the solution hashicorp went with.

You should check fabio ( https://github.com/fabiolb/fabio ), it is really awesome ). I 100% agree with you, I've been using Consul for four years now to run 100s of services in 1000s of VMs across datacenters dist

Having worked in some places that aren't software companies it is pretty incredible how something a developer who is no longer in the company set in the last decade is still kicking ass with no monitoring or documentation. It's tr

100k is a toy project compared to how many LoC a company that has been around the block for a decade or more has.

lol I laughed pretty hard but it is actually a good advice. Otherwise I guess you can just use git in the NFS by doing git init and local git workflows... I can't do anything without git, even throw away code I start with git init.

I unfortunately do not have the answer to this problem and understand it is a hard problem to solve, that said, I still feel sad about the state of the industry in this regard.

by aprdm 7y ago
The state of interviewing for software companies in the FANG or wanna-be-FANG companies is really sad. They barely talk with you and just waste your time in multiple online tests that you have to prepare for spending at least tens of hours

You're likely looking at the output of a build process, instead you should have a look in the source code that is likely on github.

Preach! Also knowing everyone in the company and having some sort of personal relationship and impact in their lives.

It's honestly pretty ridiculous seeing your tone in the comments and how you think that highly about your bad interview questions and your flawed conceptions about the solutions, including CSV and TSV confusion. This smile makes it emb
