Yeah, of the things wrong with SBT, the template for the website was not something anyone needed to spend time on. And sbt-native-packager is definitely awesome. We have an SBT task that uses native packager to build a distributable for ou

I agree. SBT has a steep learning curve, though fortunately the 0.13.x branch is much simpler than it was in the past. Lots of great stuff has been done with SBT plugins as well. I have an SBT project that will spin up multiple JVMs for d

Wow. Thanks to that tool, I just found out that my employer's new domain name is on a blacklist. Whoops.

I think that's common with real estate developments everywhere. There's a neighborhood in San Antonio, Texas where all the streets are named after locations in Estonia: http://i.imgur.com/Z6u2IjI.jpg

Caltech has a similar problem. I very nearly lost my girlfriend to suicide due to academic pressures at that school.

There are flights from west Africa to both Atlanta and Houston, plus some other cities. United services Nigeria and Ghana out of Houston and Dulles respectively, Delta has some flights to the same cities out of their hubs. It is most certa

Fair enough. My point is that Docker makes packaging up the various services I need to deploy much easier and more predictable . Now, rather than spin up three EC2 nodes to be Kafka instances, I just use fleet to submit three Kafka units

Note that most airlines now limit you to one status match per lifetime.

I can't deploy Kafka to Heroku. I can technically deploy Akka but 1X/2X instances aren't going to cut it and PX dynos are hilariously expensive, plus clustering isn't possible. Yeah, if your app can fit on Heroku, leave

When I was flying weekly as a consultant, I was loyal to United. I was only in the job for six months but in that time I racked up about 150k United miles. I redeemed them for a first-class ticket on Lufthansa from Denver to Berlin and Zu

Rockefeller recognized that potential weakness in Standard Oil, that's why he focused on volume over margins. He knew that if Standard ran with high margins, he would be provided an opening for a competitor to best him.

RAM is a good example of where Amazon's design falls down a bit. For items like RAM, where you know the exact specs you need, NewEgg is hard to beat. Their power search lets you drill down to precisely what you need. I like Amazon wh

This is my experience with Chef/Vagrant and one of the principal reasons we're moving our deployment over to Docker with CoreOS. Using etcd/skydns for service discovery and fleet to deploy containers. So far it's going

That just picks whether or not you get PreCheck if you weren't already on the list. It doesn't necessarily determine if you're in a metal detector or MMW line (though PreCheck lines only have metal detectors).

At the company I work for, we went through all the trouble of getting our distributed backend application running Vagrant using Chef so that we could have identical local, dev and production environments. In the end, it's just so slow

Question for weavenetwork: are containers addressable by hostname from other containers? Is there a good way to do that? I didn't see anything about it in the readme. I suppose service discovery is out-of-scope for this project but h
