Its normal to secure the endpoints via network level security - ipsec etc. HL7v3 transformed into FHIR which is done over HTTPS instead.
This approach is terrible and causes the poor performance.
There are whole sets of testing "tools" for RoR projects that promote this mechanism of testing - if you're testing an API you need to use an external tool to properly hit that API.
If you're writing unit tests, write unit tests with mocked dependencies.
Just use a proper scripting language.
At my lost job we had the same.
And the one before that.
This mitigation of a risk that affects business continuity is something that all senior level people need to take seriously at any company, small or large.
This is biased material promoting a political ideal and not factual.
Safety wise, if you are afraid of bears you need to be confident enough to handle flares, a large handgun and a large calibre hunting rifle. There are alot of bears, I saw three while I was there though none were close to major settlements.
We did get shown sole CCTV footage from the dock where a bear came down and broke into and ate a crate of frozen whale meat off the dock, that was fun.
Oh and take or get a Greenland dog from one of the kennels to go with you anywhere - they can tell when a bear is near. They aren't pets though, don't expect them to behave like a lapdog.
If you like beer be prepared to take quite some money for it.
Much more effective.
I mean that was fun for a young budding developer, but I can see the major security issues with this. I really hope this has been thought through.
I can imagine this being another one of those popups that constantly appear on websites - are certain files protected like your hosts file or does it rely upon the access level of the user running the browser?
The lights last the lifetime of the car.
I'm looking for opinions on low code tools that people may have used, such as Appian, Mendix, Pega etc.
I have a project I've been working in my evenings on since lock down started (see link) and I'm after opinions on where existing tools fall down when it comes to supporting developers who work with them - or developers who have to integrate with solutions built using these tools.
I've made quite a few assumptions in my project so I'd like to make sure that these align with other developers opinions.
Personally, I've been working with Appian for a year or so on a client project and these are my major misgivings:
1. They rolled their own programming language, and its not nice
2. Their integrations to things like databases are very poor, and the integrations don't give you much in terms of automatic code provisioning
3. APIs defined within Appian cannot be made to follow any existing API design patterns
4. The interfaces are not accessible and are very heavy in terms of JS
5. Automated testing is nearly impossible due to the DOM generated by their UI rendering engine
Many thanks to anybody who takes the time to reply!
I have done a simple tutorial for creating a todo list app here:
https://elementalsystem.org/documentation/tutorials/todo
I plan on creating tutorials for creating a blog with it and creating a ticketing system. I should call these out on the readme and include some graphics/videos like you way.
Architecture is fine, but most of the time its the implementation and engineering details that prove out the architecture, and not vice versa.
Aim for perfection, as much as you can. There is always that middle ground, try to understand it but always strive and drive your peers towards utter perfection (as you understand it).
IAM is on the AWS repo aswell isn't it? I guess it wouldn't be so bad then.
