Are there any lists of people looking for work during this round of layoffs? It sounds like a lot of good projects got cut and there's some companies growing that are finding it hard to locate talent. The pandemic is making people wear

Is there any service that will monitor MLS/others and look for houses and apartments in a price range, within a commute distance (by train or car or bus), and with internet access? I think I'd pay for a service that did this.

It's not unheard of for small startups to have no training beyond "here's your email account and here's our repo". Sometimes you don't even get a company laptop. It's not ideal but when everyone is swamped

I love structured repositories of knowledge and documentation like this because it opens a lot of doors for automating some broader software engineering talent. This could be a really cool opportunity to programatically find common subsets

I think that if you selected: 1. a random person from the tech industry, and 2. a random person who has worked at a FAANG company for 1 year. I'd assume that on average person 2 is no worse an engineer than, and potentially a better en

No single CDN will give you 100% uptime but, for video serving, you can use multiple mirrors across multiple CDNs. In html5 you can provide multiple source urls for the same content.

Cuelang is not simple or well documented. It's the "right solution" but it's not polished currently. There needs to be a lot more examples to pull from. There's a dramatic difference between: https://cuel

Getting buy in from people at work for this has been hard but I've finally broken through that shell. People who've never used kube and who only know how blog post engineering works are afraid of "rolling your own tool".

From worst to slightly less worst: Helm, Istio, and everything Atlassian (Jira & confluence). Helm: go templates aren't a robust, or even remotely sensible, way to define the configuration changes someone will need on a day to day

That's really cool. I might have to play around with this. Do you have any docs on what you do to deploy a model? Something I've been doing at work is dealing with the output of some ML code we have. We end up with ~150GB of data

This looks really amazing. Do you have any plans to support on-prem GPUs? If we had Gitlab runners with GPUs in them would this project pick it up and use those runners for training/analysis?

I love gitlab but I run into two issues constantly: 1. Gitlab CI with DinD kills the docker cache on every build. For a large monorepo this is a huge pain. Really needs to be addressed with some host volume mount of the docker daemon layer
