Yeah fuck this account. I'm going to password out of it. Feel free to just delete everything I've written in the past that you don't agree with as well.

Classy. This comment is 100% exactly the attitude. This is why Step 1 is to find a new job. This poster is punishing you like a parent would a child. Is this the way you want to be looked at and treated? Did you study as hard as you did and spent so much time developing your craft for this?
There are better opportunities out there. 1,000s of them. Avoid the jrockways of the world and you will have a much happier career and life.
Many, many, many industries have overnight staff to handle these issues, but likely because software engineers tend to be young, lack a union and are paid salary with no overtime compensation, it is somehow acceptable in this industry. Which is why I honestly asked that question. Why do you and the above poster, find it so normal to be on pager duty when so many other industries, often with much more critical services, do not require it?
Step 1: Find a new job.
There are way too many opportunities out there to subject yourself to this nonsense. Pager duty is essentially wage theft.
Maybe I was down voted because my comment was too brief. In the U.S. companies bid on and purchase wireless spectrum which they then own in perpetuity.
everyone? Dial back the extremism for a minute. Get off Facebook.
This article is a great example where in using docker for the first time they chose to attempt to run the state layer(database) in a container. State layers tend to be always available and difficult to scale horizontally anyway. This cancels out a decent chunk of the benefits of containers in production. If that team had more experience with service based architecture they would have known to use an third party database service provider(RDS) or host their own on a persistent server. Especially on their first experience with containers.
They are the last to adopt new things as they tend to be the lowest on the talent chain as meeting estimates, often via client coercion or moving goalposts, is much more important than successful solutions over the mid-ling term.
For anyone reading this that is part of that group, leave stuff like containers to outside organizations with stronger engineering talent and focus on what ultimate makes you money which is client networking and sales.
This article was about a lawsuit about chicken waste in 2010
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/03...
The relevant quote from the article is a statement from Perdue Chicken "Perdue owns no factory farms," the company said. "Families that raise poultry for Perdue are independent farmers."
Facebook is leaking, I can already imagine what the clickbait headline looked like...
"Obama to assemble government censorship agency"
If we completely ignore basic competency, then I must conclude his rhetoric, which largely revolved around scapegoating immigrants and the people of foreign nations, played a large part in the decision.
Edit: Again, this is intended to give context as to why some, including myself, look to those issues as a driving force in the election.
He is so grossly unqualified for the position that it is difficult for me to understand what other reason someone would chose to vote for him.
Clinton was a poor choice for sure but Trump doesn't even pass the phone screen of the basic necessary knowledge for the position.
Edit: I should clarify that the point of my comment is not to reopen the debate about Trump as opposed to give some context as to why many people look to those specific issues as a driver of his election.

On a side note this is one of the most naive things I have ever seen. I was a bit agnostic before, but wow this is literally handing Russia and China the keys to the global economy while thinking he is doing the opposite. Yikes, I really did not realize he was this under qualified.
You realize that isn't actually how a capital market based economy works, right? Investors are the "command" part of the economy, responsible for allocating resources. If they decide to only invest in ridiculous, worthless ideas then we all definitely lose. So far that hasn't happened, but never forget that it is very important for us all where investors put their money.
> No problem with what he did and it sounds like he does a great job
My comment was about the indiehackers title and link. It seems to be a pretty common occurrence for that site to greatly exaggerate the 0 to $X and this article is unfortunately no exception. Much respect to Elliot for all he has accomplished.
