I've written plenty of PHP, mostly out of necessity, but I find the language to be hideous. It's like they took only the worst parts of other languages and piled it all in to one full of `$` and `->` for no good reason. I'

What you said, but I'm considering carrying a rock now. Drivers seem to think I'm disposable for committing the crime of walking somewhere. Middle fingers are only so memorable, but that ding in the paint or a window might help th

I find the GCP documentation to be lacking compared to AWS. Specifically while using GCP with Terraform I hit more frustrating nonsense error messages with little to no google hits or undocumented behavior around IAM config compared to my e

Not the responsibility of the container. The host deals with those details.

The story you're telling sounds like a you guys problem, not a Ruby or Rails problem. I've been building and running Rails apps since 2007 and have not experienced what you've described. My current app runs on AWS ECS. Upgrad

On one hand she's a crook. On the other hand she scammed Ruper Murdoch, Kissinger, the DeVos family and a bunch of other ghouls that deserve to be robbed. I guess in the end there we're more innocent victims than ghouls taken to t

They did whatever could drive more dollars to deliver nothing contracts, but there was a particular hard on for getting XML in to anything. It was the solution to everything for a decade at least.

On my previous team I used to think read only Friday was a good idea, but it was in fact a symptom of quality problems. My current team has a strong culture of testing and quality and we ship whenever the feature is ready.

I think it's good to prevent my test suite from becoming unintentionally stateful. People come and go from projects and you have to keep on top of security updates, so being strict about how things are done makes the project easier to

You clean it up. I've cleaned up projects that we're total shit shows and the cleanup paid dividends when the time came to update or change that part of the code. Even if a project has gone to seed, things rapidly get better when

This is a terrible attitude towards code you support for a number of years. It seems like you just get to dump on the next person, so I guess it works for you, but if one of my people sent a hatchet job in for code review they can expect to
