I don't see any evidence that this is a bot post. It's the only post in the thread that actually points to scans of the Marion Richardson source materials mentioned in the parent comment. I guess it doesn't matter now, since

True, although I believe dredging up unusual enzymes from the stygian depths facilitates new and exciting dystopian storylines.

I love the idea of finding enzymes that break down plastics. I also like to imagine the post-apocalyptic Sci-Fi short story possibilities of accidentally releasing something that breaks down _all_ plastic! Imagine my delight in reading this

1) If you do Slack, then I recommend you join the #openfeature channel on the CNCF Slack. The inviter is here: https://communityinviter.com/apps/cloud-native/cncf 2) The downside of rolling it out based on host is

My guess is possibly one of those "make a commit to an open source repo" to enter things?

I would have thought so. But flagsmith apparently does primarily server-side eval. And even OpenFeature has `flagd`, which I guess is a sidecar, so a sort of hybrid approach. And LaunchDarkly's Big Segments fetch segment inclusion data

by zellyn 3y ago
Well, it seems to be a common theme to build a server that uses the flag eval _server_ SDK to evaluate a bunch of flags and then pass them back to the client. For example, a client may call myserver.com/mobile-flags?merchant=abcdef&amp

I'm so happy someone did this. Rewriting LambdaMOO was on my long-term (mostly not going to do before I die) TODO list of project ideas! https://zellyn.com/page/projects/todo/ Very fun. I expect the para

Our in-house solution hashes flagname+key, and LD does the same but adds salt

Yeah, and assuming they are done well, they probably have better analytics and insights attached to them than anything else except perhaps your experiments!

Sadly, this is a battle you are destined to lose. I have almost completely given up. The best you can aim for is to use feature flags better rather than worse. - Some flags are going to stay forever: kill switches, load shedding, etc.

I more or less know all the answers for LaunchDarkly (except pricing details), and for the internal feature flag service we're deprecating, but I haven't gone through and answered it for all the other offerings. It would be time-c

by zellyn 3y ago
One of the most common things you want to do for a feature flag or metric name is ask, "Where is this used in code?". (LaunchDarkly even has a product feature that does this, called "Code References".) I suppose one laye

Oh, and one last(?) update. If you create your own service to evaluate a bunch of feature flags for a given user/client/device/location/whatever and return the results, for use in mobile clients (everyone does this), PLE

One more update. I spent a little time the other day trying to find all the feature flag products I could. I'm sure I missed a ton. Let me know in the comments! LaunchDarkly Split Apptimize CloudBees ConfigCat DevCycle FeatBit FeatureH

Background: I work at Block/Square, on the team that owns (but didn't build) our internal Feature Flag system, and also have a lot of experience with using LaunchDarkly. I like the idea of caching locally, although k8s makes that

Looks fine in Firefox, Chrome, and Safari here. The red comments are a little hard to read, but aren't terribly important. If this truly is a contender for "worst contrast ever" for you, then something in your setup is messin

Are they still trying to upstream everything? For a while they were being good about that…

Driving around in more rural Georgia, it's not uncommon to see street signs riddled with gunshot holes. I wonder if these airships would attract the same kind of mischief? I imagine a lot of the inspections are over quite remote areas,

I still find it hilarious that zbefunge is one of the best befunge environments I've used. It runs in the Infocom z-machine! https://www.flourish.org/zbefunge/
