Makes sense. I missed that section, much clearer now, thanks. Any plans to release more details on how the bastion hosts are configured? Seems like that would be the complex bit to get right.

To be clear they said they "could" use RevokedKeys. See my reply further down for my line of thinking.

I get that, but you need to update the revocation list on every single server. At which point you've just undone the benefit of not having to manage `authorized_keys` on each server.

Interesting, so I'm assuming this wouldn't work for staff that roam with laptops?

How do they handle revocation? The problem I had with this approach in the past was no CRL support.

I could imagine drafts have much less diligent deletion policies vs sent emails. Auto-save mechanisms typically keep a long history of diffs, or whole versions.

Imagine a team of 20 developers sharing cloud infrastructure. Key additions and revocations ends up being time consuming.

Nope, funds were returned. Bank "made a business decision" to close account and decline any future accounts of mine with them.

Unless you are going to link to an actual definition, this is rude and worse, incorrect. The word "employ" is yours, not the OPs. Paying someone to work on your house doesn't violate personal use, much like paying a house cle

Agreed, we do this as well at some scale. The vast majority of application configuration falls into this category. The advantage of storing them in a git repo (we use a different git repo to the main codebase) is that you can re-use the sam

I'm not sure what your point is. Your initial comment seemed to indicate that you thought Github was increasing their pricing because they were struggling to pay for the underlying infrastructure, or that the per-customer cost was too

Pricing is a function of what people will pay for it, not what it costs to make. Consider Slack as a fine example.

This is not how pricing works.

That's fine if you have a single repo, but CI normally needs to access lots of different repos. GitHub's documentation describes why you need machine users for anything but the most trivial deployment. https://developer

Pretty angry that Github have made this change with no mechanism for adding machine users without paying a per month charge. It seems like a key feature, which is currently horribly painful to manage and now expensive. How does everyone els

The issue is he'd have to be a cryptography "genius", so the fact that he can't provide a simple cryptographic proof speaks volumes.

This sounds like a really premature optimization to me. Let the DB do it's job unless you have an explain trace showing it's slow for your workload. Trying to do things like sequence columns adds complexity, when this is often han

I think the point is that people don't particularly care whether TE will be able to provide more stable updates, because they are fine with the current functionality at the current price. Perhaps in this case TE should have done a bett

Is it though? What's the point of a 1.0 release this far into a projects life? If it's utterly meaningless what's the point of versioning it at all?

Cfoo ( https://github.com/drrb/cfoo ) is great, it's simply a yaml-to-json converter with some syntactic sugar for cloudformation. Troposphere seemed like too heavy an approach.

As a counter point, we use Cloudformation extensively at 99designs and whilst it has some quirks, it's also been stable, reliable and incredibly beneficial for automating lots of our infrastructure.
