I think the point was a financially successful company not contributing to an open source project even after making a bunch of money just seems un-ethical? Maybe I'm old-school but I still think we should be supporting each other in this type of situation especially if one of us strikes it big? Sure - move away from Nginx but maybe throw some $ their way for the service they provided even if you don't legally have to ...
Exactly my thoughts when I read the article - a hugely successful company not contributing to an open source project which enabled them to succeed in the first place ...
This is exactly how I work - albeit on my own projects - vanilla html/css Go and Postgres for all server side operations with a few modular web components here and there for the interactivity you mentioned. No frameworks, build tools or config files ...
IMO React and it's ilk are amazing in some applications but the problem is trying to make 'everything' a React/Angular/Vue app without considering scaling or how it would benefit a user. I have been tasked with building complex UX'x which would've been far simpler and performant as a multi-page type app with some plain JS sugar.I agree with wrnr - I too am leaning more towards WebComponents where some dynamic functionality is required. It provides us the ability to not only keep the tech stack small and also avoid all the dependency and version pitfalls.
The ratio of people who think about the implications vs the general public who consume rather than question is weighted in favour of big name companies.
I concur - just set up a couple of sites (written in go) and use Supervisor - its a nice tool and pretty intuitive. Using conf file to specify run app as particular user, set environment variables, logs, autostart etc.. - good to have in one place.
Very nice. You mentioned the 'moving to folders' is coming soon? That would be great! Also - would it be better to make the add subscription easier to find? I was unsure where it was at first. Although I would use the keyboard shortcut 'a' now the average user may be inclined to look for an icon or something more obvious? Anyway - great job - just my 2 cents.
I had a similar issue - I couldn't recover my email after it was compromised (on a side note - a log in from South Korea, Burma and US spanning an hour seems like a candidate for suspicious activity?) I couldn't use the recovery email or provide proof of ownership which complied with whatever algorithm had been implemented - was basically rendered helpless even though I could provide other details such as exactly when I had set up the email and other personal details. Incredibly frustrating and fair enough it is a free service but I would've happily paid for some "support" and saved a lot of trouble. Instead it has caused me to migrate as much away from G as possible and rethink any dependencies.
Kakao is pretty ubiquitous on Korea too. I like the look of path but unfortunately its nigh impossible to choose your social network - it's just whatever gets adopted by the majority. I wouldn't choose to use kakao but since a lot of my contacts use it I kind of have to!
Can we help from outside the EU? Would it carry more weight to show that the entire worldwide development community recognises Python as referring to Python-the-language.
I trialled for their Aus arm and promptly walked out after finally getting an answer to how much they (don't) pay. I took a job a week later for double what they offered which is still an average wage. I have no respect for these guys.
I buy most of my hardware from Little Bird too - I could easily source it cheaper but they provide awesome service. I attended a great presentation of theirs showcasing http://ninjablocks.com/
Our company hired a promising recruit who as it turns out had 'embellished" their resume and it caused a lot of friction and general bad feeling for both parties when they couldn't complete some relatively simple tasks. I took responsibly as I had hired them - although next time I will probably implement the obligatory whiteboard! As it is a basic web dev shop I don't place too much value in a prospective employee with college degree(s) for the work involved - it would almost be overkill! However working effectively in the respective domain is what I would consider important (for this particular job anyway).
