100% agree. I know some people are building full on apps with lambda, but I'm just not a fan of that use case. Lambda is PERFECT for devops groups. Need to keep a security group in sync with the IPs some 3rd party service publishes? cl

agreed, but its a solvable problem. e.g. You can request a second token, but doing so immediately sets the currently active token to expire and be deleted in X days.

I don't know about the internals, but my guess is one of the following: 1) there's something about the lambda platform that just doesn't lend itself well to customer provided containers. a lot of people would AT LEAST have is

not the free consumer kind. Some business/enterprise stuff is useful (e.g. eset), but thats not helpful to the average consumer.

I mean yea, but this is about a processor and related microcode. It sucks, but there literally is no real mainstream opensource audit-able option for the consumer market right now.

I haven't touched java in years, but have known this existed. How does it compare to some of the features added in recent versions of java that do similar stuff?

mocking with interfaces is so straightforward, it just kind of happens without much thought if it something you are used to in other languages. The first thing I did in my very first go project was mock the repository/DB tier out so I

Very cool; I'm super glad to hear its still going strong. My last full stack project where I touched the front-end was 100% knockout + some custom routing + commonjs module organization, and I still have fond memories of it relative to

I have basically the same complaint about most of the mergetools I've used; they tend to just do more than I want. I'm sure that's largely a PEBKAC problem, but..... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Definitely going to take a look at this; you

its not "cool" anymore, but I always thought knockout was pretty simple, worked well, and fulfilled a lot of this use-case. I built a couple knockout based apps that worked phenomenally well across lots of platforms, and were pret

I've noticed that. I'm not 100% sure what the deal is. From what I know, my one major gripe is that they devalue you based on where you live.

Check out GitLab. I don't know how similar their culture actually is to Basecamp, but they seem to put a lot of importance on doing everything possible in the open, so you really get what seems like a good sense of what they are about

a lot of technical interviews use super contrived problems for you to work through. There is a non-zero chance that a super experienced engineer could be qualified for a job, but stumble on the applied questions asked by some interviewers.

GitExtensions was/is solid too; very little abstraction, it was just built for speed/efficiency. Someone recently told me it runs on Mono too now, but I haven't used it in years and never outside of Windows.
