We're very actively working on improving Unit's UX/DX along those lines. Our official Docker images will pick up and read configuration files from `/docker-entrypoint.d/`, so you can bind mount your config into your

I wouldn't bet on that. :) F5 isn't the most visible corporation in terms of grassroots engagement, but NGINX itself has remained F/OSS all these years and newer projects like the Kubernetes Ingress Controller [0], Gateway Fa

For folks looking to learn more, the Component Model documentation is pretty good! I like this excerpt for explaining the core vs component split: > components interact only through the Canonical ABI. Specifically, unlike core modules,

You almost certainly use WebAssembly today in widely deployed / commercial products without realizing it. Figma, Microsoft Flight Simulator, Disney+, Amazon Prime Video, Photoshop for Web, 1Password, and uBlock Origin all implement sig

I almost went there myself in my response, but I don't think that's the strongest argument since any of your users could request the source and then hand it over to the parent corporation, albeit only under the terms of the AGPL.

That's half the argument for Guix, and the same train of thought that led me to Mercurial back in the 2000's. For better or worse, Nix has owned the zeitgeist for several years now, and I'd be surprised to see it dethroned be

Nothing wrong with humor, but on a completely personal level, it does frustrate me when the top comment is entirely superficial, since it adds nothing to the conversation. And subjectively, it feels like there's been an uptick in jok
