Eagerly waiting for the alpha version 5! It's been 2 years since the stable 4.1 release.

nice, the id in url is incremental integers, makes easy for those who want to script and get all materials!

Nice. I wonder if the stateful merits provided and marketed by containers orchestrates (e.g. K8S) is something they will consider in the future? ..

A couple of days ago, I tried to search on how AWS operates RDS behind the scenes, since it is a managed stateful service I was wondering whether it runs in a traditional way VM-based or in a fully containerized environment? .. Unfortunately, a simple search will lead you to the consumer/customer resources out there only.

$RDAR

There's also that rubbish app (forgot its name) for parent control in phones is not in the list. Only 1 employee (founder) and in daylight using twitter to cash out, manipulate the price, issue more shares, etc..

Waiting patiently for HashiCorp! I tried through EquityZen but no luck.

A friend of mine asked me: "why are taking it seriously and love to code? I do it just as routine job". Then, he didn't complete his career as programmer and switched to be business analyst.

I grouped XML quotes to share with my manager:

The essence of XML is this: the problem it solves is not hard, and it does not solve the problem well.

XML is like violence: if it doesn’t solve your problem, you aren’t using enough of it.

        — Heard from someone working at Microsoft

XML is like violence. Sure, it seems like a quick and easy solution at first, but then it spirals out of control into utter chaos.

Most xml i’ve seen makes me think i’m dyslexic. it also looks constipated, and two health problems in one standard is just too much.

Nobody who uses XML knows what they are doing.

It's probably a good time to check if you have some safety against `rm -fr `.

Two days ago, I wanted to delete .git only, but accidentally as my fingers were accustomed with -fr , the command was `rm -fr * .git`. Rails server was running and some hope arose at the moment to just `lsof | grep` .. unfortunately that didn't work with me !

Ironically, all dot files have stuck as obvious :)

and it's still one of the most complex problems in automated pattern recognition.
