I now have to use reading glasses. First few prescriptions were eye-wateringly expensive. Now I just order a 4-pack off Amazon for about a tenner - never been happier. I have a pair at home, at work, in the car, in my bag and if they break

Vendor lockin a real risk. But how big is it? And what is the cost to mitigate it, including the opportunity cost of foregoing other investments? These answers will be different for each firm.

You should be able to find time to learn more outside of your 9-5. Do a few courses or get a side hussle/project going. > Perhaps I need to look for a bigger company with a better career path? Maybe get back to contracting? Career p

They're not under any contract or obligation to make any promises about their software, so I'd say NO.

It needs charts and shit. Then you could dump Prometheus too!

These are not mutually exclusive. It seems like the whole premise here just lacking nuance.

Why not just "killing"?

CDC on that backend would be one way. You could stream the data out to the various teams who could then materialise a view of it within their application and then craft an API over that view.

You exploit Conway's Law by not having separate FE teams. I think this is called the Reverse Conway Manoeuvre if memory serves

by bradwood 4y ago

I'm also in the market for some kinda MDM setup that will work on BYOD dev Linux hosts without annoying developers... How are you finding fleetdm?

You can probably put a react app together with cognito, a lambda and API gateway. Maybe chart.js or some such for the visualisation?
