I came here to say the same thing. It looks like a great tool which I will use frequently on large json files but I don't get why the author bothered to implement a basic HTTP client with some curl-like options when it can just as well

Implementing simple middleware in Spring (boot) is pretty much the same. One class with one method that has access to req, res and the next filter. The @Component annotation is all it takes to enable the filter in your web stack. @Compo

Interesting. Is it required to delete data from persistent data immediately or is it sufficient to retain the $to_be_deleted_user_id for preprocessing when restoring a backup? Same for event processing, can we get by with a preprocessing st

Assuming that a SaaS provider is the `processor` in the GDPR. Could it comply to the GDPR by providing the following features through either API or admin panel?: * Trigger json/zip export of all data for $user_id * Delete all data for

Setting up a single postgresql is not that difficult indeed. But in a production scenario with decent uptime guarantees you are going to at least need master-slave replication, make sure they fail over when the master goes down, have backup

The article is mostly about outsourcing "heavy lifting" like database hosting to cloud providers and non-critical software to SaaS providers. I agree with the article when it comes to database hosting/infrastructure but I wou

You should try the KDE Neon distro. It uses Ubuntu LTS as a base and adds the latest and greatest KDE release on top.

If I’m not mistaken they are also the driving force behind the Spring and Spring Boot frameworks. Probably the biggest Java framework out there.

The article is written in the context of a Xamarin mobile app, not overly complex or distributed at all. So I'm not sure if the added indirection cost is worth it. I totally agree that message/event passing is better suited for a

Usually a couple of minutes: apt/brew install docker docker-compose git clone <repo> docker-compose up ./gradlew build docker-compose brings up all required dependencies (databases, message queues,...) and all tasks related

The benefits listed in the article can also be realised with simple java style interfaces and dependency injection. That approach also solves all three disadvantages listed.

For case 2, a modern IDE like IntelliJ has completion suffixes. So you can type: myfunction().var<TAB> and it would expand to object i = myfunction(); where i would be highlighted so you can immediately type the name of the variable a

The problem here is not the `var` keyword but the `getList()` method that is leaking implementation details by having a concrete class return type instead of an interface.

I wonder if it would be possible to change the electron build process so it builds 2 outputs: 1 "big" package with full Chrome inside and 1 "light" package that just contains the application code. The light package could

Does slow startup time matter for services that are supposed to be running continuously in a cluster environment? I have no doubt that a Go tracer would start orders of magnitudes faster than a Java one (especially if it pulls in spring or

Keep your stack simpler with an integrated framework instead of going for the latest fancy cloud-everything tech and it is a lot easier building/deploying as a one man team. What is wrong with a simple rails/spring/django pro

Blogging about stuff you are learning sounds like a great idea. Don't write for anyone else but initially write for yourself. If you write content that is useful for yourself eventually others will find it useful too. The thing that so

I like to use Basic Auth for API's with clientid/secret pairs. So it's not the user password and individual credentials can be revoked while it's much simpler to implement than full OAuth If I'm not mistaken Twilio

Try to get rid of the commute. That's two wasted hours every day. I have a similar 1hour commute but I only need to be in the office 1 day a week. On the other 4 days I get up at the same time (5:30-6:00am) and I work on my side projec
