I'm assuming that someone who "took over a React project" isn't trying to remove all the react from the project. They did mention they found both up and downsides compared to their old work.
I don't get this one, you pick OpenTerraform and get on with your life. It's the same with picking OpenSearch over Elastic. I can use the proprietary version that locks me into a single profit-seeking vendor and doesn't have community backing or the one run by a foundation made up of companies that use and are heavily invested in Terraform.
That's not really your own theory, that's like, the specific goal of psychiatric treatment? You can't "cure" schizophrenia or bipolar, the goal is to manage it.

My dad developed severe mental illness later in life, destroyed his life, and never found a regiment that worked for him before his death (undiagnosed congenital heart condition is what ended up getting him).

I think anyone who has schizophrenia or bipolar (and their loved ones), would happily take medically "managed" psychosis over the hell of unmanaged psychosis
That's pretty much pi squared. Which, for weirdly good reason, is close to the value of G in meters per second squared.

The problem is that the nature of non-hierarchies is that they inevitably allow the power hungry to establish hierarchies of their own design.
Sure, happy to share more:

Config:

1. You set up an account on the marketplace - sign up, then connect it to Stripe through the marketplace and decide which software you want to sell (about 15 minutes in total)

2. Copy-paste a new license to your repositories - You relicense your software to use a slightly modified version of MIT license, which requires commercial entities to pay for your software (5 minutes or so)

That's all for config, now your part is done and the rest of work is on buyer's and marketplace's side.

You of course remain owner of your software, you don't move any rights to marketplace or users, except the license for usage, just like you do it now with MIT/GPL/whatever license you use right now. Marketplace is only to connect you with buyers and give you centralized place to sell with automated infrastructure, so you don't process payments, signups, etc. by yourself

Selling:

If a company wants to use your software, they need to pay a monthly/yearly fee - you choose how much you charge

License:

You can customize the license if you want - you can choose whether you allow free usage for non-commercial/scientific/charity purposes and you can also set some other feature flags, so you have a control over how your software is used

And that's basically it

I think it's not only the issue with terraform but also the underlying infrastructure. AWS should've never have imperative APIs in the first place. Or at least it's time for AWS V2 APIs
A "repair prompt" instead of rewinding and starting back from the error seems like the wrong choice, and might only make sense with how payment for OpenAI API usage currently works.

> The difference between React and Rails is, well, pretty much every mentioned negative attribute of React - Rails neither is terrible for performance, nor is full of hidden pitfalls, nor requires lots of boilerplate for simple actions, nor is incompatible with most Ruby libraries, etc.

You cannot be serious. Every single one of these points is a criticism I've seen leveled at Rails (in many cases on this very website) at some point or another. Performance? People wouldn't shut up about how slow it was compared to traditional server-side languages/runtimes which could do multithreading, or (later on) event-loop-driven runtimes like Node.JS. Hidden pitfalls? I'd like you to meet my friend, Mr. N-Plus-One Query. Boilerplate? I suppose this is a fair point, but on the other hand there were tons of people complaining that there wasn't enough boilerplate- that it was too magical. And incompatibility? Can I point out the libraries that weren't just written specifically to be used within Rails, but actually depended on its heavily-customized initialization and environment preparation?
A reference can escape not only up, as a return value, but also down, as a function parameter. I'm not sure how sophisticated the static analyzer and inliners are, but escape analysis can only go so far; e.g. stopping at a method call on an interface type for which it cannot discern the concrete implementation. In fact, I believe at least in early Go releases merely passing an object reference as a parameter to a simple leaf function qualified as an escape, forcing a heap allocation.

Note that the decision to force heap allocation is done at compile time, partly because of the semantics of goroutine stack reallocation as the previous poster hinted at. In principle Go could conditionally copy to heap at runtime, but that's just not Go's style of engineering--that's more in the vein of the JVM and similar environments which push more complexity into the runtime rather than compile time. Though maybe it will or has already begun to go down that road.

> From what I've noticed, free speech advocacy isn't really about "allowing everything" but more about not applying more censorship than what is necessary and not doing it arbitrarily.

That is what I kept reading from "free speech advocates", especially regarding Twitter etc. - those same people are now largely either silent or actively cheering on the same happening in regards to the other side right now. This is the fatal flaw with this definition: "not applying more censorship than what is necessary and not doing it arbitrarily" does not mean the same thing to all people, and it seems that the counter-mainstream doesn't give the mainstream more leeway. So is there some way this could be done without the pendulum just swinging fully the opposite way?
It sure is. But what a great user experience afterward! Security and convenience are usually tradeoffs, and in this case it's totally worth it.
> Even ignoring updates to the backend, adding a basic fields to a form with some validation can be 20+ files changed.

That sounds a lot more like a problem with the project you're working on, than a React problem.

Then why didn’t they “choose” to fund hashicorp yesterday and avoid this?

As usual in OSS-goes-private events these all just sound like “keep building our critical infrastructure tool for free or we will go elsewhere”.

What is hashicorp or any other company in their position to do?

This is not sustainable.
> The US letting China successfully invade Taiwan means the loss of Japan, Korea, and Singapore as allies.

The US may not have a choice. They would have to be willing to escalate to WWIII levels to stop it and that may - depending on who is in the driving seat - a lot more or less likely. My guess is that if the Republicans win the next election cycle that the chances of Taiwan being invaded go up considerably. Note that wars are started because countries turn inwards and are ended because countries realize that without a world to operate in they themselves can't function. Plenty of lessons reinforce that. The Republicans and the people that would rather let Ukraine be overrun have significant overlap and if and when they come to power again there will be serious trouble, with the magnitude of the trouble directly related to how willing the USA is to continue to lead NATO. Note that there are plenty of voices that the US should stop supporting Ukraine from the right side of aisle and that that alone could be a green light for Xi to move on Taiwan.

> Not to mention , it is also a historical mark that American hegemony in the Pacific is over.

That's not that important, the US is able to project power around the globe from its own continent with ease. The question is whether it is willing to use that power. The moment the credible threat goes out the window there will be a free for all.

> At a baseline Taiwan gets the same love and support Ukraine gets while America begins fielding jets and carrier groups from both Guam and Japan.

Yes, because the US needs Taiwan right now. But if they no longer need Taiwan then that support may well evaporate, and Japan, Korea and Singapore are all painfully aware that it may not last. For instance there have been longstanding talks about Japan rearming.

https://www.npr.org/2022/12/16/1143017026/japan-defense-spen...

Japan is concerned both about the Chinese and the Russians.

> A build up on amphibious vehicles would be visibly apparent in the coasts for weeks leading up then they'll have to cross 80 miles of ocean.

Yes, which they could do in a few hours, and there is absolutely no way that the US will make a first strike on the Chinese fleet in international waters with nuclear - or any other - weapons. Only when they cross the line demarcating the Taiwanese coastal waters would there be a green light for action, my guess is that that action would be mostly concerned with making sure that there wasn't any reason to continue with the invasion because everything of value was destroyed. It would be a useless victory.

I'm fairly sure that Xi - and Putin - are both surprised at the degree of support that Ukraine has received to date - too little, in my view - and that the effect on the Russian economy has been very strong. And the Russian economy was less dependent on the West than the Chinese one. So that more than anything is what is probably signalling that invading Taiwan isn't going to end well for the invader. But that may not stop them from trying, though I still consider Xi to be a more rational leader than Putin.

IIRC 32GB of shared RAM is not enough for llama 70B, and 8GB is just barely enough for llama 7B... So yeah, that value proposition is not good at all.

A 32GB+ ddr5 laptop with a dGPU and some RAM will (IIRC, just barely) do llama 70B for far less money and a similar TDP.
This reminds me that with all of the indie retro handheld trend, I still wish there was one with basically the New 3DS XL form factor, two screens and all. It worked so well for a ton of stuff and was a perfect size for (large) pockets.

the OP was suggesting that it's just obvious to use Kubernetes instead of Nomad.

I was saying that anyone who operates large scale Kubernetes knows that you will forever be dealing with tuning etcd and fighting to keep etcd alive. It's an underpinning service of Kubernetes.

Roblox's outage was related to the intricacies of running consul and mistakes that they made.

The point I was making was that I would rather, at this scale of operation, be running Nomad and optionally Consul and optionally dealing with the intricacies of Consul than running Kubernetes and being _forced_ to deal with what a miserable pain in the ass etcd is.

I was saying that running Kubernetes is _not_ the obvious choice -- at least once you're at 10^5+ systems.
I think most of OSS is evidence that people will do creative things for free.

I suppose that if people's needs were met, more of them would be willing to do all these for free without chasing a dragon.
By losing performance I meant you don’t need to quantize the model a lot since it fits in RAM. My bad for not clarifying it.

I don't enjoy "walking the aisles" at all. But I do want to choose the produce I buy myself rather than have a picker do it.

Also, I don't buy large amounts of produce at a time. I buy it the day I'm going to use it.

For those two reasons, a produce delivery service isn't of interest to me.

ok, but if you're the fire department and you want to put out a fire, are you going to stop and carefully seal up a catchment so that no firefighting chemicals get into the ground, or are you going to immediately put out the fire?

ignoring the impossibility of sealing the ground around a burning structure well enough to prevent soil contamination in the first place, you are going to extinguish the fire and deal with the contamination later, if at all; there may be another fire.

Both the intro and this one are great reference books but I don't find them suitable to study as the main textbook. They cover a large number of topics so the depth of each topic is pretty limited. Keep in mind if you are considering to study these.
Yeah I think a restricted nix-like language might be a much better choice.
Oh, man. That book really brings back memories. That was my introduction to text processing back in the day.
The impedance mismatches you're used to from using databases are gone because:

- You can finely tune your indexes to be exactly the optimal shape for your application (data structure). You can see this in our Mastodon implementation with the big variety of data structures we used for all the use cases.
- You're generally just using regular Java objects everywhere: appending to depots, during ETL processing, and stored in indexes.

How you coordinate data creation with view updates is a deeper topic, so I'll just summarize one of the basic mechanisms Rama provides for coordinating this. Depot appends can have an "ack level" that determines the conditions before Rama tells you that depot append has completed. The default level is "full ack" which includes all streaming topologies colocated with that depot fully processing that record. With this level, when the depot append completes you know that all associated indexes (PStates) have been updated.

There's also "append ack", which only waits for the depot append to be replicated on the depot, and "no ack", which is fire and forget. These all have their uses depending the specific needs of an application.
Great to see your commitment but I'm also curious why you, unlike some other companies, have chosen not to support with any full time employees? It seems your business is largely based on Terraform and saying pretty much "we'll contribute code" doesn't signal too much commitment.

I realize my comment might sound like an accusation but that's not my intention, I want to hear your reasoning about it!
yeah, they must be metabolized to be broken down. there are a few drugs like this.
Mastodon-compatible would be better.

Mastodon is the name of a piece of software as well as an API, a website, etc.

Naming this stuff is hard but calling it a Mastodon instance would be more confusing.
You can bribe a corrupt official or politician for a short period. However, unless you can blackmail or continue supporting them, they won't continue to stay bribed. Once FTX went bankrupt they lost their limited immunity to political consequences. They were too clumsy to engage in the sophisticated schemes used by other lobbyists and PACs to ensure that politicians stay "bribed."

If you want to see how a criminal organization can truly become legitimized through corruption of political structures, Uber is a great example. They managed to create a decentralized illegal Taxi company in the most public manner possible.

This describes almost every tool in my toolchain that's over a decade old, this is just what happens. If you want to kill terraform and replace it with something better the usual bar is that it must be 10x better. If that's something you think you could do I'd be (genuinely) excited to see it :)
I would be.
"What if nobody wanted to continue developing browsers" is an unrelated issue. If Firefox goes under, Chromium throws up, and nobody else thinks it's worthwhile to do anything with the codebases or make a new separate one then the problem is nobody wants to build a browser not how many wanted to build a browser in the past.

Rails and others mis-trained a generation of web devs to put credentials into a big environment file. This was always a bad idea, and even worse now that things like AWS credentials can be turned into cash so quickly.
You're correct, EASA allows conditional clearances ("clear to land after departing plane clears runway"). But the linked event was not a conditional clearance. The approaching jet was cleared to land, meanwhile the ATC got distracted and left the SWA jet on the active runway without clearance to take-off.

IIRC, EASA requires the conditional to be explicit, with the condition named and read back, and both ATC and cleared plane to have visual on the conditional aircraft.
This covers really well why I think the BSL license is a non-starter for things like TF. I get trying to prevent AWS from competing with you using your own open source code, but it creates this ambiguity where it's not clear whether lots of uses are or are not competing with HashiCorp.

> For example, if you’re an independent software vendor (ISV) or managed service provider (MSP) in the DevOps space, and you use Terraform with your customers (but not necessarily Terraform Cloud/Enterprise), are you a competitor? If your company creates a CI / CD product, is that competitive with Terraform Cloud or Waypoint? If your CI / CD product natively supports running Terraform as part of your CI / CD builds, is that embedding or hosting? If you built a wrapper for Terraform, is that a competitor? Is it embedding only if you include the source code or does using the Terraform CLI count as embedding? What if the CLI is installed by the customer? Is it hosting if the customer runs your product on their own servers?

The answer is at the whim of HashiCorp and subject to change at any point in the future. Even ignoring the attempt to dilute the meaning of "open source", the practical implications of the BSL license are more than enough reason to coalesce around a truly open source fork IMO.
Exactly, why are so many people missing this point. It's not "we built a narrow, tedious framework for knocking off Twitter clones", it's "We built a platform that turns data processing on its head and look in a couple of months you can clone Twitter just imagine what YOU can do with this."

I see parallels though to Datomic, where they turned the database inside out, co-located the app logic and data and indexes, etc. There are a bunch of great videos on YT about Datomic by Rich Hickey & co, worth a watch and I think shine a light on the approach here, too.
