Plus the fact that Vitalik seems genuinely interested in the development of the underlying technology and isn't too fussed about making more money than he already has. An example of this is offering to fund Ethereum infrastructure pro

100% this - I've spent many years feeling like I'm one abstraction away from having a killer library that would get me the initial crud based app done in a single line of code... I've never actually managed it - the edge case

I read a comment only yesterday: "I don't know any half decent Ethereum developers who are not currently millionaires". I felt poor and excluded. Then I remembered how it felt in 2000 where all you needed was a website for p

There are times writing a bash script it feels like "omg - a programming language would be much easier for this task"... So I write a tiny program in the lang of my choice and invoke it from that place in the bash script. The ba

I've been using kube-lego ( https://github.com/jetstack/kube-lego ) to automate certs for Kubernetes ingress for the past 9 months. It is a joy to just add a domain to a manifest, kubectl apply and then hit a brows

I remember writing documentation for a Perl system in 2001 - it was using MySQL MyISAM tables and the main developer had a few hundred thousand lines of Perl that acted as the same kind of client attempt at transactions. It was a mess and

An example (from a case I was involved as a witness in only last week). A jury must be 100% confident that the evidence presented confirms their beliefs. The judge will say "do not decide based on if you believe it happened but inste

Good question - I had probably hit enter for `gail.com` having typed it out at one point - then muscle memory of typing `gmai` + enter -> google suggest = 'gail.com'

I have to say I humbly agree with this advice - the NoFile.io name got me clicking (the most difficult hurdle) - then when stuff started to animate I thought 'oh' and closed the window. Perhaps this is small minded of me :-)

There are a number of projects and storage solutions that you can use depending on what is important. Using persistent volumes and external storage like EBS is one way. Using distributed file-systems with local or network attached storage

Yes stateful sets became beta in k8s 1.5 - it's very much a win to run your test suite against a recent (within seconds) production database container that was spun up by CI. Yes you can do this with VMs but that would take 30 secon

This is an excellent article which really highlights the underlying trade-offs when you choose node for your service (i/o bound work vs cpu). Unless you know for sure what limits you will hit - it makes sense to iterate quickly and fin
