GraphQL reminds me XML or SOAP - too much overhead, complicated and user unfriendly for most of projects. Especially for small projects. JSON/YAML have beat XML, what will beat GraphQL? We need a modern, simple and easy to use extendable REST/RPC interface.

No jokes buddy. Today, millions have home local storage servers like QNAP which can run many webapps or scripts.

One can seat on the server also!

"One option is to purchase a hardware server and keep it on premises" - really? I expected something intelligent in the article, but this option looks too dumb.

Cloud Jira saves a time and resources for many of developers. Also after removing self hosted version they can introduce true edge computing things and move Jira development to another level in terms of performance and scalability. And after this outage - reliability, I guess.

I guess “disabled” is a lie at this case.

Is Atlassin’s CTO still working in a company? If yes, what his daily tasks?

It’s not a mistake. Mistake is how they run cloud infra.

The most undervalued thing that forgot even highly skilled engineers - KISS principle. That’s why you are burning out supporting such systems.

Of course. Author just missed how CORS works :).

In short - Good error message is a message with error details and context. I saved a time for you, guys.

Best book is task description how to add small feature to your project. If it’s still clear and easy, then you don’t need to read any books about software complexity management ).

> you can't, say, restart the server with no app downtime You can, on properly configured server. Cloud named cloud due to it allows to do such things - VM migration from one host to another one flawlessly.

> Microservices are relatively new and unproven.

They are so old, buddy, actually. Splitting monolith into services(not always been micro) is a natural evolution for any software.

"Microservices had been sold to us as the ideal architectural for perhaps a year now." When he learn that there is no ideal architectural in software? )

Zero stars - car body from paper?

New business model from me - $0.01 per post/comment, $1 - per hating post/comment.

Make world happy again!

I think, you don't need to choose any other package manager because homebrew is the most mature thing on macos. Just disable autoupdate when installing something: HOMEBREW_NO_AUTO_UPDATE=1 brew install <formula>

Just to add how to use it: HOMEBREW_NO_AUTO_UPDATE=1 brew install <formula>

Upgrade homebrew itself AND other packages, see https://computingforgeeks.com/prevent-homebrew-auto-update-o...

> And of course keep up to date on openssh patches and security advisories. What about 0-day security breaches? Often fix preparation takes months before been available to end users. All this time your system is vulnerable.

Googling, stackoverflowing and copypasting.

I’m trading, hedging, gambling, gaming and investing.

Even if you know differences between HTTP 1 and 2 it will not help you with web developement at all. In some rare cases web engineer can get performance boost for client to load data more quickly, but usually nobody cares about this.

To tell the truth, there are no questions about quality or stability in Apple's interview :). I think, they need introduce a new 3rd round about this.

Lots of questions are definitely for Senior level engineers or even devops, i.e. - "HTTP 2 vs HTTP 1.1". There is nothing useful for junior level developer to know the difference of such low level things. Anyway, junior engineer will have no chance to decide what HTTP protocol to use in his project in Apple.

Another example - "NodeJS event loop internals". Nothing useful for junior, senior level+ is assumed, if you want squeeze out of maximum performance from NodeJS V8.

Apple's interview: lots of security questions. Reality: Macos security issue with blank root password.

Knowledge != smart.

Bad for business, bad for UK people, bad for EU people. UK authorities, are you still sane?

Stripe, what’s wrong with you? Climate, are you serious? If your developers have some free time - please fix UI bugs in dashboard.

Copy-paste is not a tech debt, but just bad practice. Bad practices can increase tech debt.
