Absolutely don't agree. Sure, Mysql mostly became very popular with the rise of PHP in the early 2000's, but Postgres was popular in many less visible industries. In my 'world', MySQL was seen as an amateur database engi

In my (limited) powershell experience, it's a "scripting first" shell, while bash is more of a a cli-first shell. Using a powershell cli is very verbose (although pretty consistent), but using it without some sort of GUI help

I've not looked into D yet, but not having a GCC or LLVM backend is imho not necessarily an advantage, and in many cases even a disadvantage. The simple toolchain is one of the reasons I quite like Go...

Not only that, with wsl2 on windows being in the mainline windows, developers have a very good alternative. I don't this is a coincidence... Running actual PHP servers on windows is a rarity, and not worth it to support it officially o

I'm not talking about consultancy fees. I'm only talking about Redhat licenses for OpenShift and its support contracts. I'm also a freelance consultant mainly focused on OpenShift and k8s, my bill is separate.

Looks like it's heavily inspired by the Go playground (which took it's inspiration also elsewhere, but afaik was a first for a compiled language). There's always a trade-off between ease of use and flexibility, and I think th

Well, according the CNCF statement mentioned by techcrunch [1], Istio has been submitted in the past when it was very very young [2] - that at least shows intent? [1] https://techcrunch.com/2020/07/08/google-l

Have you ever looked at beaglebones? TI's support is pretty nice in my experience, and the hardware is a LOT more solid and reliable. Certainly the USB stack has been a weak point on the RPi, which is problematic since the ethernet ada

The biggest advantages though is having to explicitly define al the edges: - You need persistent storage? You better define it or you'll lose it one the next (re)deploy. - You need to expose network services? Tell me which-ones or it w

There are imho 3 key features what made Docker great: * the combination of all technologies touched here in the example, but it's missing a very important-one: the layered filesystem * A defined packaging format and way of distributing

Not my experience. At scale, once you go down the 'cloud native' (kubernetes) path, the infrastructure part becomes relatively straight-forward, but PHP's weaknesses become very apparent. Doesn't work very well with mess

Depends on your situation. If you're already in bed with Microsoft, the support you get is pretty damn nice, and surprised me a lot. A client of mine, a large multinational's overall corporate IT is very much Microsoft oriented, b

That's maybe the theory, but in reality, the only thing Ansible hopefully is, is idempotent between playbook runs - but there are no guarantees there, at all. Only in very simple setups things can be fully declarative in it's tot

Something like an "API gateway" does a lot more than load balancing, and sometimes it doesn't even do any load balancing. Are you still going to call it a load-balancer? Gateway is a much better description. In web applicatio
