Programmatic banning of sources takes power away from editors to determine legitimacy. It censors the conversation that would have otherwise taken place. Wikipedia cannot claim impartiality once it picks and chooses sources at an organizati

Many conservatives consider CNN as left wing and disreputable as many liberals consider Breitbart. Your same reasoning would also apply to Wikipedia banning CNN. Would you consider that a pragmatic move? If not, then for what reasons would

I completely agree with this. Learning music theory helped me play by ear because it helped me associate a feeling with a progression or chord. This made learning by trial and error much easier, since it stuck more (I tried it without much

Thanks! I've been wondering about this. Most of the articles start with a high level overview, and then they drill down into specific technologies. There are so many options to choose from that I'm never sure which platform I shou

Hi all! A few months ago, I wrote a blog post about setting up continuous delivery using CodePipeline, CodeBuild, and Beanstalk. One of the commenters rightly pointed out how slow that process is, so I've put together this blog post sh

This post is probably the last in a series about building production web applications. It covers continuous delivery techniques, briefly discusses some of the tooling, and discusses how modern deployment approaches compare to in-place deplo

This is the fourth post in a series about building production web applications. The first post in the series started with the high level motivation for doing this, and each subsequent post works its way down from highly abstract down toward

I'm glad you enjoyed it. Automation has a pretty steep learning curve (disclaimer: it did when I started learning), but it pays off pretty quickly. Definitely reach out if you need anything.

I don't see much supporting evidence in the article for your claim. Aside from some conjecture about race included at the end of his analysis, the article doesn't show error based on racial breakdown of the analyzed regions. I&#x2

Good catch! macns is correct: "all" should be bolded.

This is an excellent point, and I agree wholeheartedly. They did extremely well given the constraints they had, and at the end of the day everyone made out: their company, their customers, and my company. I hope the article didn't pain

Point taken, and sentence removed. Thank you!

It was definitely a success story. The company, their customers, and my company all benefited. It wasn't all rainbows (the story is a bit longer and more complicated), but it worked out well for everyone in the end.

A process manager is one of many failsafes used in case of a crash, and it also has many uses other than recovering from a crash. A robust production system should have many layers of failsafes to prevent it from crashing, to recover quickl

"I bet this blog post was about javascript :p" You should bet more often ;). That's quite correct. Mostly Javascript with a bit of python.

Completely agree. One of the first problems I found was that the server wasn't running via a process manager, so when it crashed it never rebooted. Simple enough to solve, but non-obvious if you've never run into it before. It&#x2

Sorry about that. I guess I didn't really think much about the title sounding like clickbait. The phrase is what motivated me to write the post, so I used it as the title. Perhaps I should put quotes around it?

This blog post describes my motivation for writing a blog. It's mostly a written memoire for myself to remember in detail what motivated me to start writing, but I thought HN readers might have some good feedback, so here it is. Would
