What does this even mean?

As already pointed out, in many (most?) cases these projects are sponsored by capitalist organizations.

It would be nice if that were true.
It's so painful to get started that I'm not at all convinced the okay-ish language experience is worth it. I feel like Go was on the verge of something brilliant but managed to miss it by a couple of significant areas.

The BBC's experiment, from what I can tell, has left the format of the core story untouched. All the chatbot' does is tinker with the format of what would traditonally be 'box-outs' in print journalism or possiboly 'related story' content.

> IPv6 suits the startups

That matches what the presentation says: IPv6 is growing roughly as the internet grows, i.e. new ISPs go with it, because if you are starting from scratch, might as well do things in the modern way. (If you mean vanilla web startup, I think they have enough problems without risking to bork things up by misconfiguring a feature nobody really asks for...)

> When it comes to consumer ISPs, who are the people paying for the high-end packages?

Movie watchers and other media addicts; and they don't really care about IP addresses.

IMHO a lot of bigger ISPs have looked at the struggles of early adopters and decided the effort is not worth it. Most of their budgets these days go towards traffic shaping and caching, where IPv6 doesn't really help much. Established businesses are not clamouring for the feature, so why bother?

I agree that at some point things will change. I think the point of the article was that we thought we had reached that threshold a few years ago, but it looks like it wasn't really the case.
This article is very long, and the arguments very thin. I m against Docker in production. Still I think it's great/quick localy like vagrant.
On many, many Australian ADSL connections you'd notice anything sending that amount per month purely because how slow the connection would become.
Oh, I'm perfectly aware that LEAN and Kanban originate in traditional manufacturing. But I'm not seeing those methods being anywhere near as widespread in fields other than software nowadays, at least not in my country (New Zealand), hence the question.
Docker is one of many attempts at reactions to just how awful it was to manage things that way. It's not perfect, but the key takeaways is that a lot of people have independently come to the realisations that you wan deployment to as much as possible deploy static copies of already test images rather than run a bunch of configuration steps; we want isolation to various degrees; we want reproducible deployments; we want to be able to easily isolate state and regularly throw away/replace the static elements to prove that the state has been confined to the documented locations and ensure any manual tweaks are removed.

All of this is possible without tools like Docker, but they're a hell of a lot harder without some of the facilities brought by tools like Docker. It doesn't have to be docker, but it does need to be something offering isolation, a mechanism to manage images, and ways of managing data volumes. You can do that in bash if you want to, but the value in these tools is not to have to reinvent it from scratch.
It isn't Google Maps that is collecting this data, it's Google Play Services, which is a service layer at the bottom that underlies all location information on the device.

Hosting stateless apps is simple. If the underlying host fails? don't worry, just spin up a few new copies. Slap a load balancer infront and we can do a/b or blue green.

Smashing.

But where is that state held? maybe your lucky and your data can be hosted in a single RDS instance. Maybe your partition scheme is simple.

However, managing distributed state is hard_.

I'm surprised this is even allowed, in the UK it is illegal to leave a car unoccupied on a public road with the engine running. Obviously we're talking about private garages in this case, but the technical ability to have the car running with nobody in it seems to run counter to the spirit of the law.

It's occasionally useful when you have what I call "misbehaved" applications that have certain picky requirements regarding environment - system libraries (e.g. specific oracle version), absolute path locations, etc. and fulfilling those environmental requirements may conflict with other applications if you installed them both on the same box.

Better behaved applications (statically compiled golang apps being one i guess) will not be so dependent upon a specially configured environment.

I think it gained popularity originally because this is a big problem on development environments and docker was the first (possibly only) technology to really try to solve it. It doesn't solve the "works on my machine" problem and it doesn't do what it does particularly elegantly, but it gets part of the way there.

I think the reason people then ported it on to production was because they liked consistency between environments, not because it is especially well suited to production environments. The creators obviously encouraged people to use it in prod (so now it's "best practice") because there's more money in your prod environment than there is in your dev environment.

I still think the whole ecosystem is somewhat shoddily put together and the culture is cargo cultish, so I try to avoid it where possible.

Agreed, but that's just saying that combining two or more simple things results in a more complex thing. All platforms I know of describe each individual instruction and its consequences, and leave you to deduce the consequences of combining them.
Oracle would do better to just publish facts and let other people doing the fighting, IMO. They risk tainting the whole discussion with their radioactivity and I'd prefer it be based on the facts.

I second this. In production I will typically front my Node app with Nginx that takes care of SSL and static file serving. There is also a substantial performance benefit.

Can all be bundled up in a single Docker container for super easy deployment. :)
Because it actively promoted "it works on my machine" and "snowflake" installs.

Supporting a legacy docker app (ie something that was shipped two years ago) is a massive nightmare, because the build system used to make it is almost certainly not going to work.

This means keeping the software patched becomes a massive massive pain. (mind you the same argument can be said for statically compiled binaries)

The assumptions, the wrapper, and the plain horror that is the storage system is just such an arse.
Yes. I think Peerdium is not at all necessary for 99% of the use cases. You can just use a normal publishing platform. Peerdium can become useful if you don't want a single point of failure. That is anyone can spin up Peerdium servers from source code and the links would still work as long as someone is seeding the content. Also nothing is stored in a server. So if you want to share some content that you don't want to get stored in someone's private server then Peerdium can be used as well.
I think the author should take a look at Convox [1]. Convox is really the "holy grail" PaaS that I've spent many years looking for. It's a self-hosted Heroku on your own AWS account, and it uses Docker. You can set up a production-ready deployment in about 10-15 minutes, including RDS, SSL, logging, high availability, and auto-scaling. The cost starts at $67 per month: 3x t2.small instances for your highly-available cluster, and 1x db.t2.small RDS instance. (convox/rack [2] is a free and open-source project.)

I've worked with OpsWorks (Chef), Saltstack, Puppet, Ansible, and Capistrano, and Convox is a breath of fresh air. I hate Chef with a passion, since I've had to maintain a cookbook for a client that is using OpsWorks. It's ugly, painful, and extremely slow.

Docker is a great tool, but it's not a PaaS. You need a layer on top to make it useful for production. But I do love having a CI image that is identical to production.

> But how does that prevent severe service degradation

It doesn't. You DROP the most specific thing you can. To avoid collateral damage we are able to do "Scattering" (move client across IPs with the hope the attack won't follow), and for example apply the controversial limits only in certain geographical areas (anycast network allows this).

> you still have to do some kind of work (in computation and energy) on the listening side

Yes. BPF for L3 works like charm. Read on XDP.

> or can fat edge-servers just eat that up?

Yes and no. You have to specifically optimize, whatever you do probably won't make Apache or IIS work under DDoS. Most vendors use "scrubbing centres", when they can have small number of beefy dedicated servers. We didn't find this architecture sufficient though, so in our case edge servers do handle the load. But we do spend time on tuning the servers and our applications.

There are two ways to mitigate this attack

- Use authenticated encryption.

> Nobody forces you to leave wi-fi and mobile data on by default and everything set to default. Don't want to be tracked by Google? Then open settings and switch things off, it's not hard.

Sorry, no. Turning on WiFi is not the same as consenting to be tracked everywhere. Your whole comment is all mixed up. First, you cannot disable Google Location Services. Period. You can turn off location, but you cannot, e.g. use GPS directly without going through Google Play Services. Second, you say the parent's comment was hypothetical, and yet, then you assume it is true and then suggest that using WiFi is consent to some hypothetical practice.

Scala overloads underscore in various ways, my favorite being:

Unlikely that will make its way into Java anytime soon, if ever, but it would be a nice enhancement -- being forced to pepper your code with lambda expressions a la `x => x.foo` is annoying when the alternative `_.foo` conveys the same meaning.

I am in the same age group and had the same experience as you when it comes to friends in the childhood.

However, I have a different experience than you when it comes to adulthood. While I do have acquaintances I have great conversations with in niche areas, I have some very close friends I share a lot with.

This did not come for free. Intimate, strong friendships was something formed by engaging in self-disclosure and intimacy, and slowly escalating this behavior. This can be hard, and from my experience, men are less used to this form of bonding.

But in order to decrease our reliance on cars, we would have to let builders replace the single-family housing in cities with taller multi-unit buildings. This would:

- Be very profitable for people we don't like.

- Employ carpenters building prefab housing in Maine rather than carpenters who live in the city.

- Fail to destroy capitalism.

- Destroy the character of the neighbourhood by casting shadows.

- Let the wrong sort of people into people's neighbourhoods.

And where would everyone park?

Worth noting that for many use cases using wide floating point vectors from AVX and on is a bad idea. It can take upwards of 2ms to turn on and has weird effects (this delay is due to having to adjust the voltage the core gets).

Salt – Container Managed with Python, Scaled by Event-Driven Infrastructure
Isn't this a question of how "hierarchy" is handled? I work in software too and here everybody is basically equal when it comes to pitching ideas and input. The decisions are bundled around the team leads and managers but they welcome input and suggestions to improve for everybody. The managers jobs is just to manage resources and not to be a king or a general in an army (and thus being full of themselves).

"Traditional industry" is based heavily in "I'm paid more, therefore I'm better than you" and those people just don't want to hear what was wrong about their decisions. These industries are driven by the magnates, the admirals and the kings of the world for centuries so that's how their structures evolved to mimic this.

Software is new, it has a different set of goals and different means to achieve it. Make it better for everyone and be more productive VS. make yourself look good and shit on everybody else that isn't directly useful for your benefit.

You will find outliers in each direction in each industry. The fundamental difference is: Do I accept others as my peers because my role is just "manager" (to perform the management function) OR Do I want to cover my ass as much as possible and gain an advantage over everybody under my command?

I worked in Kitchens, Trash removal, Callcenters, Hotels, Banking ... it all boils down to "Am I treating people as other human beings or as resources I can shuffle around to my advantage".

It is the latter that your parents are most likely complaining about and something that the lavish financial freedoms in the software world -paired with the freedom to do away with traditional hierarchy- have afforded people to deal with differently. You will still find assholes in software and good people in "traditional" industry.

I've never worked anywhere where the end of sprint retrospective was in any way useful. Same with the huddle.

The problems I've found with the retrospectives is they become a meeting just for people to moan. And it's the same problems every time that people moan about because the team isn't really empowered to change anything.

This combined with childish themes, and nonsense like describe how this sprint went for you in terms of World Cup teams. WTAF.
Yup. That is correct. Once the people seeding decided to take it off it is no longer stored anywhere :)

It's not a thing in most of the software industry yet. And wherever people do team retrospectives there is a high chance that it is a formal procedure - the only concerns that are voiced aloud are the ones that are known and "approved" by management or are expected to be acknowledged. Any critical concerns that can backfire at a person who raises them are never mentioned, just in case.

I'm not saying that all IT companies are like that, far from it, but really the issue is very human one - it is very likely that at least some critical issues are caused by mistakes of the management and unless management can accept blame for own mistakes retrospectives won't really work.
