It's like using PostgreSQL to save its config. But I don't want to criticize that choice. It looks like the author wrote something that worked for them, and more software should be like that (as counter-intuitive as it sounds).

That's not how it works. Open source makes it trivial for the nerds inside a company to deploy. Soon, they start taking advantage of various APIs and integrations. They'll have scripts written in Bash, Perl, Python, Ruby and what

Gitea is already a decent competitor, valued at $0. What gives a company like this value are the contracts and the technical lock-ins making sure you can milk a relatively small group of captive, high-value users for many years. There are m

Oracle could be a good candidate too. They have a cloud service and from what I can see their development environment is a mix of basic in-house tools, old-school stuff like Hudson and various open-source projects.

I don't know, but for reference GitHub was acquired for 7.5B and Atlassian has a market cap of 30B.

On my solo projects I use Gitea because otherwise I'd miss tickets and wiki. You could replace those with TODO/FIXME comments in the code and .md files checked in git though. Fossil seems to offer the best of both worlds, but unfo

But maybe you don't need crews, and ships that big. Perhaps it would be viable to operate a semi-autonomous fleet of dozens or hundreds of medium-sized wind-powered ships; it's possible that wind turbines + battery + electric engi

It's easy to pick up anything. It's difficult to master most. If you're good at SQL, why not transition to be a full-time DBA? In the right companies, good DBAs are highly valued. I suspect there is quite some business helpin

You have a monolith. The monolith is deployed by a grumpy old admin using a shell script. He monitors it with another shell script. This is the old, bad way of doing things. Monoliths are bad because they are the kind of thing only neolithi

I have no reason to doubt that the CEO believes in free speech. Many people share this belief. He did buckle, but we're only human. But did the pressure come from an angry mob on twitter, as most people assume, or from some guys wearin

Germany is an interesting case to say the least. After decades of campaigning by the Greens, and right in the middle of this global warming crisis, they closed nuclear power plants and started up coal plants again... But, fortunately, the c

The entire world; you do make a good point here. So should we start taxing Chinese products more, like Trump has started doing, and some people in the EU have been suggesting for a long time, then? This would at least be coherent. Yet the g
