I'm curious where you're located. This was exactly my experience in "tech" startups in NYC, but not my experience at all working in SF. This is a big part of the reason why I have zero interest in leaving SF for some upc

Thanks for the library! It's super awesome, useful, and easy to use. And yes, it made writing this ridiculously simple, it's borderline embarrassing how little code I wrote, but that was also part of what made it neat to me. This

As the other poster said, you run Django on Kubernetes for the same reason you run anything on it: * Containers are an easy way to package an application so that it's easy to run anywhere, even if it has weird dependencies * Eventually

Thanks for the feedback, not pointy at all. You're right my original comment was misleading, most of the GAE Standard samples are webapp2, but that's because it comes built-in to the platform and can be specified in the app.yaml,

The other downsides are the deploys are slower, for now at least, and it's still in Beta. Beta means it has SLOs, which are like reliability goals, but it doesn't have SLAs, which means you get refunds for downtime. App Engine Sta

Global GCE instances within your project, yes. Not every GCE instance everywhere, that would not be very helpful :) If you wanted to have some instances that couldn't talk to your database, easiest thing to do is probably throw them in

Developer Relations team exists so that doesn't happen so sorry to hear. Part of the problem is some of our feedback mechanisms need work. If you go to: cloud.google.com/python You'll see we have a lot of tutorials that link

App Engine Flexible runs on GCE instances, which all have internal IPs. So you can just firewall off external traffic but allow internal, which is the default anyway. Disclosure: Also GCP Developer Relations

Oh cool, I missed your citation. I am still figuring some things out as well so I am going to check out what you've done. Definitely happy to have you contribute to the ecosystem. It seemed like a content gap that I wanted to fill in,

It's obviously to a large degree personal preference, opinionated frameworks vs microframeworks. The reason why I would still use Django even if I wasn't using the ORM is because 1) I'm still probably using the ORM. I was jus

I like Flask a lot, but I take issue with: > It doesn't force a data model / DB onto me - I can just plug in whatever I have (unlike Django). Django doesn't force a data model onto you anymore than Flask does - nobody is f

I agree the docs could use some improvements. After playing around with it, I'm not sure if the filesystem works, which makes sense given you just have a bucket or repo underneath and the code can be called at unpredictable times. You

I haven't actually tried it out yet (about to) , but just by reading the instructions on deploying, it looks like you stage your code in a GCS bucket or on a Git repository (Google Cloud Source), so I think your local data would refer

This site is absolutely excellent. There are a lot of things in math that I sort of had a handle of the mechanics of, but less so the intuitions for, which this site fills in well: I really liked the explanation of sine as something that ma

I think you were ahead of the curve. I have seen multiple companies that seem to think of front-end as "lesser" engineering, but then struggled to fill front-end roles more than any other position, and struggle to build great UIs.

Not necessarily. In fact it can get in the way because complexity theory ignores all those ugly little constant numbers. More important than complexity theory is actually doing your own measuring and benchmarking, something I've seen f

I think DevOps is a bit of a fad anyway, because a huge chunk of the problems people are solving will soon be solved by off-the-shelf standard cloud solutions. It makes no sense for everyone to be writing their own deployment/configura
