My problem is that when I start observing my ”N1”, as I do when I’m in a cycle of low/bad sleep, I get worried I won’t reach deep recovery sleep. This really have become a bad pattern for me that is hard to break. I can spend a full ni

I’m not saying ”no processes are needed” - I’m saying at big companies many redundant processes are never questioned. Too many processes are never automated, and people are assigned to manually enforce and follow up on processes, that shoul

I really would like to challenge this. There’s many times no need, but busywork have to feed busywork.

With the type of software many of us deal with - web, business, enterprise, on general purpose cpu’s, we keep quicksand in our hands and try to shape it continuously to meet ever changing expectations. Lessons learned over and over: Working

Sure you could, like Solaris did IIRC, zfs snapshot before updates was applied. What I mean is that a fs snapshot is ”dumb” in and of it self. If you couple zfs with the nixos rebuild command, then… sure, I guess - but the previous generati

A couple of things - if the system can handle rollbacks it will be much more reliable than using the fs, as the fs knows nothing about actual state. It knows about blocks commited to disk. Usually they look the same, but not always. Then th

Yes, but that is a completely different setting than an enterprise one. Having supported large enterprises and pieces of the movie production industry I can tell you there’s a vast difference in how end-user IT is treated. The users you are

Business use is a collateral win for apple. There’s a lot of effort that goes in to support and partner channels for enterprise offerings. Making servers seemed easy enough? Look where that ended up. It’s a completely different business.

Say you want to increase security by issuing short lived accounts and passwords in a database, and make these accessible on demand for apps needing them. The app instance authenticates using the cloud providers key vault and from here it’s

What you’re describing took place with on-prem iron as well - nothing cloud about it. At all. Service discovery is in part DNS with low ttl, but there’s a part of it that ties in to configuration management, monitoring and observability as

by jordanbeiber 5y ago
The thing is that few bigger places run stuff in only aws, for example. Also keeping discovery and configuration separate from the cloud provider makes a hybrid approach feasible - which I believe is relevant. Big cloud pricing is big, depe

Kubernetes works on it’s own if all you use is in k8s. I’ve yet to set foot in a bigger place with distributed teams and services that only use k8s and nothing else. In these settings there’s a need to interconnect and monitor everything. I

Many services, many teams. Coupled with health-checks, monitoring and tracing it’s an important piece of the puzzle if you want to move quick in a distributed setting - which most large organisations are.

“People should use Kubernetes instead” is an interesting take considering your first paragraph. :) You’ve perhaps not had to troubleshooting issues in a more advanced k8s setup - that is something that is not “for most people”. Keeping serv

I feel I need to reply with my thoughts. - Vault is not niche - it’s THE way to manage pki and credentials if you’re half serious about security. Which is why you’re now are starting to see managed vault. - Consul - EVERYONE should use serv

They also reported that model 3 sales in Europe for the month was just shy of 25k which is the first time an EV topped monthly sales. Renault Clio on spot #2 with 18k sold. Interesting considering the price of the tesla….

Look at Zeebe[1] for example. If you declare the business process you want to support - either in code or in BPMN, you're automatically mapping out the events that are relevant to the business. Having a system that takes care of execut

I know you’re not me, but here I am, pretty much in the same boat. The word ”traditional” have also been thrown around.

I believe ES has it’s uses in discreet systems doing their thing for you. For me ES makes perfect sense in systems handing a workflow for you. Products like Zeebe[1] and Ubers Temporal[2] comes to mind. These systems basically becomes your

The use of anti-biotics as a growth agent is probably not taken in to account for the cost of doing our current meat business. This is a big one, IMHO! The cost of this will be for my children to deal with. Also - a normal adult, not pursui

I’ve worked in fantastic settings, truly following the agile principles, using jira as a tracker and board. I’ve been places with many different tools and people. Guess what, it’s ALWAYS about the people. If a team is following principles d

Again: describe a set of work principles explicitly that all agree on - it's a human communication and collaboration issue you were faced with. A tool is not responsible for this breakdown. Lack of clarity around ownership and responsi

He obviously did not understand what his job as a manager is about. Why on earth would a manager be allowed to set tolerances like how you describe, tool or no tool? It makes no sense and is first and foremost a management and cultural issu

So basically you are describing an organization of people that don't really understand what they should be doing. People led by a tool and not the other way around - and you blame the tool? I hear what you are saying, and I've see

Can't but help to feel that what you describe is a breakdown of both organization and work process. It wasn't atlassian that "came along" - someone penned down an agreement and, from what it sounds, there was a lack of c

Totally agree with your first two sentences. However, the final part has nothing to do with jira IMO. You would have the same behavior in these organizations regardless of tool. The dysfunction you describe goes way beyond a single or set o

by jordanbeiber 5y ago
But jira is only a tool right? Blaming Atlassian for a poorly led organization seems slightly misguided. At some project size, measured either by software complexity/interoperability or user base, you will need a tool to manage issues
