Not at all. The quality of the code may be terrible. BUT - when someone else new comes along to look at it, the 90% code coverage, and comments helps them immensely - they can get up to speed to fix whatever bug has appeared a lot quicker

No, they did a thing that got him ahead - and they hoped enough to fix the thing he did before. Now, if they hadn't gotten the credibility (due to the short term fix for thing they wrote broke sooner than expected), or they gained a lo

The parent literally said it was a "shitty solution". I agree design by committee can produce awful results - and I said nothing about a single person doing a design as being an issue.

Sprinting - individual sport. Development - team sport. You could put Messi on my company's 5 a side lunch time team, and we still wouldn't win the champions league, and the skill of the others on the team would atrophy, and they

I am not saying you are wrong, but could it also be: 1. the person had been there the longest, and had the most context on the code base. 2. There was very little docs on the code base, so new people had to go to them. 3. This person would

probably just ignore it, they are unenforceable in the EU afaik (which is a good thing - if I buy a piece of hardware, I will do what I want with it).

terraform != text/dns Lots of DNS tools speak text/dns natively - and being able to easily get all zones in that format makes things like export / point in time backups much easier.

by mugsie 7y ago
text/dns is a standard way to move DNS zones around - this means you can export this to a file, and possibly import it elsewhere, or just archive it as a point in time backup

Sure, that is definitely part of it, but without those companies, our income tax take would be lower, so we are probably in a net positive.

That is fine though - I doubt they would have made any further headway if they were calm and polite.

Not really - some of the code coming out of their dev centres is pretty awful. That said, most of the code coming out of telco vendors is complete crap, it is just endemic in the industry. This is why I laugh when I see the CNCF talking abo

The problem with kubic was the unknown space it was in - was it an appliance, or a generic distro with kubernetes packages. The btrfs stuff could have been quite good if they shipped btrfs snapshots as the update mechanism (like coreOS), bu

I can assure you (within the k8s dev community anyway) that "distro" is used to refer to companies productised versions. Look at any of the long term support discussions, and distros will be mentioned. Same goes for OpenStack - we

yeah, the "repo" command they use has support for getting bundles, and then pulling the newer commits from the gerrit server.

Absolutely nothing. More interesting is what uses it (if it is a library), when the last commit was, and is there any old issues with no updates from owners.

Ryanair actually care a lot about keeping people on the tarmac - it costs them money. Their financial model only works if the plane is in the air as much as possible.
