We use Kubernetes, which includes its own secrets API: http://kubernetes.io/v1.1/docs/user-guide/secrets.html I can't remember which issue this was on, but it seemed like there was some discussion on the

Yeah, Portal isn't too demanding. I've got similar hardware and even it strains with the more recent higher end titles, whereas Windows runs it beautifully. Until the driver situation improves a bit, it's going to be hit-or-m

> ECS is really the only way I'd go with Docker ECS is AWS-specific, which is perfectly fine for some. But Kubernetes has been amazing for us. It abstracts many of the differences between AWS/Google Cloud, it's open source

I spun up something like 200 "cores" to archive a large Cassandra cluster to Google Storage (Kubernetes cluster plus 200+ containers running the archive worker). Could have gone much bigger to get it done faster, but it wasn'

We were in the same boat as we moved towards a more Dockerized production environment on Kubernetes. There is a great Jenkins+Kubernetes whitepaper detailing how to string all of the various plugins together, check all of the right boxes, f

As a big college football fan, SlingTV has been awesome for me. It's about $15/month, and I get ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, ESPN Goal Line (or something like that), SEC Network, and a bunch of other junk I don't watch. I've been

Pretty much the same situation for us, too.

Agreed. But maybe that's a later step in the roadmap. Let's hope!

It's all subjective. Objectively, they have a huge following with many enthusiastic users. Clearly it's not the disaster that you are making it out to be. I love some PyCharm. It's a wonderful piece of software. It is a littl

Quay.io has been outstanding for us so far. Much better overall than Docker Hub for our organization. Particularly in ergonomics and team/permissions granularity.

Griatch has done such an outstanding job with Evennia. It's rare that you see someone with so much consistency, motivation, and level-headedness leading up a project like this. If you get nostalgic and want to play around with your own

It seems like this could make Postgres even better for large-scale data warehousing. Very exciting!

It's always easy to say this sort of thing as an un-invested third party, but it's not super constructive. I'm sure Jesse considered it before choosing not to.

As a sys admin type, I think it's fine. I prefer it over sysV init, upstart, and launchd. There are other options, but I prefer to stick with the more commonly used stuff. It took a while to get used to, but it does what I need very we

Wow, that's a lot of blanket statements. Nevermind the fact that GitLab won't even have a full 512 MB at its disposal in your particular case (the $5 512 MB droplet). Memory is cheap. GitLab's resource usage doesn't incr

It sounded like they were gunning to shave the maximum in response time from their HTTP APIs. From my understanding, Elixir/Erlang probably wouldn't be able to match an optimized Go process in raw efficiency. I get the sense that

RSS/Atom would be ideal for me in particular, but I'm not sure if this would be the majority's preference. An email would be just fine. Both would be superb. This is a bit of an issue I have with GC as a whole. Some products
