There is probably something else here that you need to talk to him about. Why does he feel the need to code up a feature right now , without talking to you about it? Why is he having trouble keeping everything about the product in his head

I saw a great talk on this topic by Dharmesh Shah, founder of Hubspot. He says that movements are great, but they're necessarily harder to build. Convincing people to change the way they approach their job is _hard_, even if you'r

Startups are wonderful, freeing experiences. You can build exactly the company and culture you want, balancing so many of the things that you didn't have control over at a bigger company. Then you get customers. Customers don't ca

As pointed out in the article, it can be a crime, depending on jurisdiction and local laws. The problem is prosecuting that crime in the same way you'd process a murder with a knife, because the public doesn't see them the same wa

The point is the OS manages your fingerprint, and even if you have it, you can't easily send a stolen fingerprint to the OS. If you have access to the hardware, that's a whole different attack vector.

OK, so Facebook kills the home feed tomorrow. What replaces this? Human-curated news? Either it'll be fast enough that people get sloppy with facts, or it'll be slow enough that people move to faster sources. Clickbait wins. Anoth

Yep, dropped my phone (totally my fault), got a Pixel XL for $89. Pretty OK, would buy the extended warranty again.

It's easy to be glib about this, but this is actually pretty interesting to me! This trope shows up in so much sci-fi because it's a pretty quick way to undermine any philosophical questions. What's my purpose? To help run th

I like feature flags, but it's crazy to suggest that they totally mitigate your risk. Some features will end up with more lines of code hiding the feature than actually implementing it. After it's released, you then have to unwind

I did that, sort of. But I was an exec(ish) before I founded a company. I think founding a company helped my career, but not necessarily faster than working on a similar exec-level track for 2 years. Reading this article was interesting to

There are 4 Discovery Service APIs that you can implement: service (SDS), cluster (CDS), route (RDS), and listener (LDS). Colloquially called xDS for all of them. https://envoyproxy.github.io/envoy/intro/arch_overv

You don't call Envoy to make changes. You either update the config file, or you implement an API server with a specific set of endpoints, then have it serve the updated values back. It's a bit tricky, but entirely doable. https:&

turbinelabs.io is the whole of everything we're building on top of nginx/envoy. Our primary goal is to provide more powerful ways to release software like incremental blue/green deploys or canaries or production previews. Tha

No kidding! I'm glad it exists, but Envoy seems like a much more legit / stable choice.

Do you know if it's been deployed at scale anywhere?

I'm glad this has 2016 in the title! It's now 2017, and we have better options. Nginx has been the best routing and traffic serving system for a while now, but it's showing its age. In addition to hiding metrics, HTTP 2 suppo

Good. Twitter needs to keep moving forward. There have been several features that feel like the core of their platform, but based on their revenue growth, they may be holding them back. Personally, eh, 280-length tweets feel weird and long

Since I don't think it was explicitly mentioned, this is because __slots__ is effectively a named tuple. The size reduction comes from dropping the keys in the dictionary (they're stored once on the class, not every time on the in

I think this blog post is one turn of the crank away from a truth we're all about to learn: don't hand roll your own Kubernetes ingress. Dealing with the traffic handling between your users and your code is not a trivial problem.

One of the dangers of writing structural critiques like this is that it's easy to feel like the problems are structural in a way that makes individual effort irrelevant. On this particular topic, I think there is a huge amount of indiv

It's hard to prove intent. If there's a history of these execs selling similar amounts of stock in other quarters, then it's probably not insider trading. If the paperwork trail started an hour after the first meeting where t

One of the undersold (imho) parts of this post is the system that allows tiering of releases with gates for their release. When most companies talk about CI/CD, they mean that master gets deployed to production, full stop. Rollbacks me

No doubt we talk about it that way. Not every company is like that. LinkedIn was famously 40-hour weeks in the early days. I just started at a company that's pretty aggressively work-life balanced. We're no doubt a startup (VC fun

Of course I've tried a classic HTML app. That seems disingenuous?

Why I hate your classic HTML app: - Every click is a full page load, and you still didn't manage to get caching right, so it takes 2 seconds to load. - When I have multiple tabs open, your badges and notifications fall out of date, bec
