And here's where we agree. They totally should have had people look into it. Competent people, engineers. Would've saved them the current embarrassment.

Scrutinizing the fact that a PR links to an issue that links to an issue on another public repo, opened by what I understand to be a community member? I mean, who's going to stop them, right?

There is an update already: "Update: Since this article was published, HashiCorp sent OpenTofu a cease-and-desist letter on April 3, 2024, expressing in greater detail the concerns raised in this post. On April 11, 2024, the OpenTofu m

An official apology from the author of the article that sparked the entire discussion - https://twitter.com/mjasay/status/1778454498664690108 It takes guts to publicly admit you were wrong.

Git being better does not make GitHub bankrupt. They operate on different layers.

For Terraform there should be none, since you have drop-in alternatives for both the base product and the commercial platform (disclosure: I’m involved in OpenTofu and Spacelift, respectively). Other tooling may be more problematic. Vault h

Datadog? But I'm not sure you'll appreciate the pricing.

Not sure this is so relevant. Uber only reported profit in 2023, it took 9 years for Amazon to do so. In a sense, it’s a choice.

Same thinking here. We evaluated their incident product and found it sleek but ultimately an unnecessary luxury. With their pager product we will be giving them another try. Personally I won't miss PagerDuty.

As of very recently, incident.io looks like a very attractive alternative.

You'd be hard pressed to see this trouble in their quarterly reports.

> return money to investors Do the investors care? If they're not making 100x return on an investment, will they truly care about 0.5x return? My feeling is that most would just say "OK, you have a good team, you have money in

Even when going multi-cloud you can employ different strategies. Vault is definitely one of them, but you can also use federation to exchange one cloud's credentials for another's, giving you the ability to centralize secrets in o

Yes, these two are AWS terms, but other clouds have nearly the same services, and often called the same, too.

Based on my limited experience Vault is actually becoming a niche tool. Big cloud players have been offering more limited solutions that are good enough for many if not most use cases. A few years ago as a consultant I'd unconditionall

While I'm not privy to any insider knowledge, from the outside it seems highly unlikely that Mitchell had anything to do with the trajectory of Terraform for the last few years. Also, it's possible that he wouldn't be able to

Drop the “Hashi”. Just Corp. It’s cleaner. Jokes aside, it's an end of an era. Mitchell has always been one of my role models both as an amazing engineer and a really decent, humble human being. I'm really looking forward to other
