Werkzeug/flask and gohttp in my view is not a fare comparison. Based on the details of the project werkzeug is designed to build WSGI apps easier and flask is just a convenient library on top of it providing easier way to manage reques

Swift is replacing Objective-C (a systems programming language a dialect of C). So indeed it is a direct competitor to Rust as it also provides hardware abstraction in a safe manner to replace C dialect. I will wait and watch when Rust will

Just based on what I see rustfmt is copied from gofmt which borrowed it from Python. Cargo is just another pypi with certain improvements. Rust RFC's process is also from there. Hopefully rust can have something like PEP-8 in Python to

Rust copied tooling from Go and Python. Also its tooling cannot work without internet and need to download MB's of data for simple development, and on the other hand proclaims itself to be systems programming language to replace C and

No I did not mis-represent docker, used it since version 0.96 and after 1.0. Also commented, when under the new investment it tried to re-invent the wheels by moving away from lxc base to re-write its own libcontainer and lost on the develo

I don’t have to go docker or kubernetes path for anything complex. I can still use more secure lxd containers with the same system configuration tool and scripts used for VM, bare metal to manage container. Indeed due to problem with docker

So let’s take step by step: 1. Learn shell scripts. 2. Learn Docker conf. 4. Learn yaml. (May be helm and plethora of acronyms specially designed for k8s). 5. Combine spaghetti of 1,2,3 to build container image scripts. 6. Tie it into CI&#x

In my view PWA has a limited scope in terms of kind of application which can be made with it. The number of things one need to deal with to build a PWA is just complex, troublesome hard to maintain and hard to debug. Like PWA relying on com

Main reason is for majority of the workloads it didn’t improve performance significantly. In some cases cpython was much faster. Didn’t offer much incentive to move to pypy JIT from cpython JIT.

You can say the same about geocities when it was acquired by yahoo. But it didn't last and then now it's happening with yahoo-groups. So I am not hopeful if GitHub becomes a liability microsoft will keep it.
