On 1st point, yes, you need Python 2 for Ansible (and Fabric) but it lives nicely side by side with Python 3, so your apps–the not-legacy ones at least–can use Python 3 no problem. I think about Python 2 as Ansible's dependency, not so

You don't simply upgrade your production machines to the next OS version with fingers crossed. You do some testing and validation first. Say, you use containers and so your application is isolated from the host system. When the next ve

Do you have a relational database? If yes, how do you manage it? HA, monitoring, backups? There seems to be about a gazillion ways to get "some code running somewhere" but I'm not aware of many budget options for data persist

When you've had to deal with the hours-of-video problem, you learn to be much more selective for when to start recording, and for how long to record. But even with that, and end even when you've learned the tricks of your editing

Patiently waiting for any news on IPv6 for VPC-based ELBs. I guess one could put a CloudFront distribution in front of an ELB with TTL=0 and that would sort of work for HTTP and HTTPS.

Fun little memory, as a kid I've been "hacking" on an Elektronika calculator as well, if you can call it that. On an Elektronika MK-18M I accidentally found that one of the scientific functions takes a noticeable amount of ti

You can export passwords from your password manager to a text file on a thumb drive, and store that in a safe, secret place. It's not perfect but works OK if you don't change passwords often.

And quality blurring may be tricky to implement. On Google Street View, street name plates and road signs are often blurred, because the algorithm is not sure if they are licence plates or not, and blurs too much. For Open Street View, thi

Ideally you would cut down on dependencies on every level, and end up with significantly less than N dependencies. If you have 5 similar string formatting libraries that depend on leftpad, you could collapse them into one, and have a single

I might look into making it easily deployable on Heroku. Would still prefer plain VMs (like the ones from AWS and DigitalOcean). Figuring out deployment is part of the fun!

Thanks for the comment! I've received similar feedback a few times already, and will be thinking about aligning incentives. I do want to keep the existing feature set free though.
