Actually, I do have an important fix for a deal we are trying to close that does need to go out. And I am paying GitHub to host this. Once or twice, I can see, but GitHub's SLA is getting worse than just hosting it myself, and that&#

Again, I just don't think that is possible. If you have, even, 100 customers, you're going to have 100 unique code bases? How can a human tell if a prompt is reasonable for a particular codebase? And who is going to train those

Maybe I'm a luddite, but this seems far fetched, to me. I just don't see a path for LLMs to make all kinds of changes to a codebase from non-technical people, correctly. Yes, LLMs can do amazing things, but they still don't

At least they are honest about it: > The planning is happening openly, including a voluntary separation window. That creates real uncertainty for our team over the next few weeks, but we believe the outcome will be better for it. No good

Curl is a lot more complicated than, I believe, you think. Most people know of it simply as a CLI to hit an HTTP(S) endpoint and write it out. But: 1. It supports basically any file transfer protocol. 2. It is a library that is designed f

I haven't been following it well but isn't part of the NYT lawsuit against OpenAI that it sometimes spits out NYT articles verbatim?

I just had to upgrade my plan because I ran out of tokens because medium effort had dementia and things only worked on high. Good to know I'm getting my money's worth...

I imagine that is because modern Broadcom is a different Broadcom, Avago bought and took the name in 2016.

I have a few reasons: 1. I subjectively just like it better. Things like dtrace, jails, the init system, just click for me. 2. I think it's good to not support a Linux mono-culture. Yes, there is Windows and macOS, but in terms of op

I am using it on a 12th Gen Intel (so a few years old), and it works great. I'm sure I have naturally acclimated and subconsciously work around things that I don't realize but suspend/resume works (I rebooted for the first t

I agree with you. But I have to say, it is an uphill battle and all the incentives are against you. 1. AI is meant to make us go faster, reviews are slow, the AI is smart, let it go. 2. There are plenty of AI maximizers who only think we s

I work with @lawnchair, so we both have been complaining to each other about how slow GitHub PRs are for awhile. It's wild that THE feature of GH is so bad! I have been using Argus in anger for a few days, it needs some updates, but b

HCP wasn't any prize when they got bought, though, right? HashiCorp Cloud was more like a fog in terms of growth. A bunch of products got lost a long the way (Boundary? Waypoint?) HCP lost 50% of its IPO value by the time it was bo

How does Encore handle the following scenarios? 1. I want to deploy to a testing environment where I may want to use different users, different sized services, or even mock services so I don't have to pay for them? 2. I want to develop

The way I look at it is that TF has a limitation on state size. And when you hit that limit, you have to either slow down a ton or do a (big) refactoring. As comparison, if a programming language forced you to split your software into mult

It has not been a challenging finding candidates for OCaml. For the most part, people who like OCaml are chomping at the bit to find a job writing it. And for those that don't know OCaml, a lot of really good devs are excited to try

The sense I get from some comments is that if you need a type system and to compile to an executable, Rust is the only option, otherwise you can use pretty much anything. But, as you say, MLs have been compiling to binaries for decades. O

> The concurrent applies isn’t that big of a deal? That depends. There are many organizations (we talk to them) which have plans and applies that take 5 - 10s of minutes, some even close to an hour. That's a problem. We talked to

I'm the CTO of Terrateam. For "why not rust", I have found the downsides of Rust not compelling enough to use it. We don't need close-to-metal performance. We don't really need the borrow checker, a GC is fine.

Certainly there are specifics between the type systems that differentiate. TypeScript generally chooses to enforce types in an ergonomic way whereas OCaml chooses to enforce types in a sound way. Whether or not that is a meaningful differ

Exactly! OCaml is the language I like to solve problems in, and I'm excited to solve problems in, so that's why Terrateam uses OCaml (I'm the CTO). You can do a lot (but not all) of this in Go, or TypeScript, but I don&#x27

Hello, CTO of Terrateam here, the creators of Stategraph. As you said, the common practice is to use locks on state to guarantee that operations don't step on each other. This works, however the cost is that if it takes 5 minutes to p

If I'm reading these five why's correct, essentially they just copied the code without caring, and then didn't want to let caring get in the way of their product announcement, and got caught. It's not even really malic

I believe the DORA report has some information on this. Terraform/Tofu dominate, by far.

The high-level vision of Stategraph is that the entire world's infrastructure should be representable as a single root module, with proper isolate and RBAC. It should scale and be secure. With that, the way Stategraph works best is e

Your Terraform/Tofu code is a graph. Resources are nodes and the dependencies between them are edges, so a graph is a very natural and useful representation of infrastructure. There are well-understood algorithms for transitioning a

In terms of the semantics er care about, not really. You still have to lock the whole thing to some with it.

Not necessarily. The guidance is to split your TF code across multiple states which might feel like it make sense but for your microservices to communicate that beed to share some base infrastructure, such as networking, so where does that

Thank you, that is great to hear! We're pushing pretty hard to get a pre-alpha out to get some foundations testable by the community.
