As mentioned by several people already, the migration process from 2 to 3 was really painful. It will be easier for the Python core maintainers, but introducing a breaking change with the intent that that version 2 will be deprecated has pr

With wife and 2 kids who have activities now and then I cannot imagine a life without a shared calendar. Not sure how that would work. Perhaps with rigorous phone calls during the day to so sync up, but that's unfeasible for me at leas

Metrics can be interpreted in so many ways and is not the solution to the problem itself. A metrics provide some data points, but data points by itself does not solve any problem. That is why metrics is only part of the truth here. Consider

Not a UX'er. But speaking of UX - it is inherently very annoying to sign in with username/password in general. At least in 2022. 2014 was perhaps different.

Aurora is a managed Postgres offering, similar to Amazon RDS, but with clustering capabilities. We use Aurora for all apps. It costs more, but needs little to no maintenance from our side

When started reading your post, I was certain the end would be different: - "We tend to think mankind is becoming smarter and effective. But in reality we just rely on birds' shit."

Backups should be handled by an external process, otherwise, your script also needs to take into account: - Number of backups to retain and cleaning up old versions - Monitoring of backups. What if backing up fails? - The script itself can

We have an old house from 1988 located in Norway. Walking on the non-insulated wooden floor is very unpleasant. We will refurbish, and insulate under the floor, but it will not be anything near a passive house because of other construction

Won't discouraging Discord usage when developing FOSS limit the number of contributors? Why focus so much on the tooling instead of actually creating fantastic free open source software?

From experience, the legitimacy or authority of the signer has never been of question in cases brought to court. Maybe it's more relevant in the US, but in 99% of the cases I followed through has been around the interpretation of the a

Maybe the wrapping is glorified. But the contents of the document is the most important IMHO

So there is a difference here. On local hardware this is not that crucial. But on (portable) software relying on the fingerprint is more severe.

This can be a security risk if you're using the same SSH keypair for other things, and you're using a less secure algorithm than RSA or ED or similar. Anyone doing a bit of research about you might discover a vulnerable host for w

My experience is that most developers don't even check the access logs to see what impact removing/changing an endpoint will have. Access logs are underrated. It is not some legacy concept. It is supported my all new platforms as

The most important part for me when creating a new CLI is the ability for the end user to debug the CLI themselves and step through it. This is much easier with e.g. Python, but fairly more complex with a binary built by Go

This is useful for most small apps or truly monolithic apps. ...But normalization in a distributed environment with 50+ apps? Really? You need to have some sort of duplication unless you want big bottlenecks, performance penalties, and hot

I still think the fact that end users know that apps in App Store have been valided by someone creates a kind of secure bubble for the end users. And it works well!
