I like the concept we used at GitLab since beginning: boring solutions. Whenever you have to pick, you pick the boring one. It almost always pays off.

A lof of people care. Not all choose opensource because of religion/beliefs. It's the most sane choice when you want to ensure business continuity as the company who owns it can do whatever they want with the product/service

The hidden costs of migrating away from a monolith... The promise is you will be able to better allocate resources as they are divided into small pieces. The reality is over engineering everywhere just to the what you have been doing before

Isn't trying to break security of the "entire internet" some kind of crime (despite whatever the excuse is)? People got swatted for less.

Many cities artificially block that citing things like "will modify the current architecture/aspects of the city" etc. Basically the argument is that cities shouldn't evolve from what they were in early last century, ign

For GitLab if you don't have at least developer access to the repository (as in you are sending a MR from a fork) that will run in the context of your user, so you don't have access to any secrets configured upstream, etc. If you

Isn't the whole NFT a piramide scheme where "Auction" platforms incentivize artist A and B to buy each other arts (while taking a cut) in the hope it will boost "fame" and have someone unadvised of the deal think it

I would "bet" they will not perform well in the long run. Their most valuable asset is trust and that was lost

Good coffee is not abundant. Not the crap you will find in local supermarket, that will almost always taste the same. It's like cheap wine.

There is a location/clima reason. Cocoa grows (well) only in a certain part of the world around the equator line as it requires tropical weather with regular rains and small dry seasons. It may be possible to use artificial techniques

So, who owns the "Docker Engine" ? Mirantis or Docker Inc?

Funny they didn't had to build 10 million Microservices and host it through a million kubernetes pod instances to handle "internet traffic".

Telegram can also sell "premium reaction packs" (steam hats), and/or go Discord mode and have people "boost" private groups etc with "premium features"... I would actually pay for better video calls (no on

I think we got there also by desperation of lacking good cross-platform GUI toolkits. The current state is, you either use something that looks like Windows 95 in all platforms, or web app. What the web made possible is to anyone to create

The API currently exists: https://gitlab.com/users/<youruser>/calendar.json . But I think this should be exposed in the public API, so I've created an issue for it: https://gitlab.com/git

I guess someone can create a "free and open" version of that, generate the STL and use a similar provider as above. 3D printing yourself and using a cheapo CNC can also do the trick... I wonder how hard it is to programmatically g

I am really happy this didn't succeed. Google is the type of company with the wrong incentives to screw up the whole gaming industry turning them into marketing data mining, microtransactions ad machines.
