Multi account containers + Temporary Containers [1] + I don't care about cookies [2] are an awesome combination I use, I have ~10 fixed containers and for almost everything it's a new container that lives as long as the tab is open.

Re:If this project is dead, just tell us on Friday December 13, 2019 @09:14AM (#21781676)
there are a couple of issues with "moving on", since the project is owned by pypa, it feels it should be the default for python projects, pipenv has a good idea, but in my opinion, a flawed implementation, and maybe all my issues are already resolved in those 600+ commits without release.

About the framing of the question, I think it's because of all the flame wars in the past when people criticized pipenv and maintainers took it a bit personal.

it's perfectly fine to use TimescaleDB alongside any regular tables.
Re:It's not okay to pretend your software is open source on Tuesday October 30, 2018 @09:38AM (#18336292)
I think the main issue is that you state something that's not true, https://github.com/antirez/redis-doc/pull/984 shows that, Redis Labs is claiming license is OSI-approved, when it's not.
CBS All Access is US-only AFAIK, so I don't think GDPR is a problem for them
Since quantum arrived, firefox developer edition is my browser of choice, and with the containers functionality it checks all my marks.
I owned a company that provided off-shore services to companies in the US, it worked perfectly.

If you are doing off-shoring, you really need to insist on the independence and the ability to speak up of the team, it doesn't work if you get yes-men, sadly that's the general case for India-based offshore companies

Re:St – A simple terminal implementation for X on Thursday February 02, 2017 @07:37AM (#13550082)
this is not entirely true, xmonad's config file happens to be a haskell file, but I don't need to recompile the whole xmonad project if I want to change it, I just start xmonad again.

It does some tricks to do this (mainly the _main_ xmonad executable compiles a custom binary for you taking the xmonad.hs as input), but it's a different case.

Re:GitLab Master Plan on Tuesday September 13, 2016 @03:52PM (#12491631)
I've been using Gitlab CI for more than two months now, and it's incredibly simple to set up and really powerful specially with the integration with docker, also, self-hosted gitlab is free.

I also have Teamcity where I work and the comparison is not even fair, I set up gitlab in one day to serve as a continuous integration/deployment server

Re:My time with Rails is up on Sunday May 22, 2016 @07:21PM (#11750722)
one of the issues I see with rails precisely is that most people won't ever know that 1.year is not a plain ruby method
Re:My time with Rails is up on Sunday May 22, 2016 @07:14PM (#11750699)
The main difference is that Django does not rely on monkeypatching or magic methods, and for me the separation of concerns feels just natural in Django.

When I started with Rails it felt like magic, you didn't know why things worked.

Re:My time with Rails is up on Sunday May 22, 2016 @07:10PM (#11750691)
I've always said Rails is good for short-lived build and forget projects, it's too "magic" for my taste.

I can't imagine what it must feel like to receive a mid-to-large sized Rails project to maintain.

Re:Facebook Lost a Great Engineer on Monday February 25, 2013 @07:52AM (#5278683)
"At my current company, we hire based on provable real-world experience."

That is also a pretty bad hiring schema, you are leaving out a great deal of potential great programmers that are just starting, so, which strategy is better? I guess you always leave people behind, if it works for you, it's the right choice, and it has been working for facebook.

DRY?
Re:Getting Started with Django on Tuesday January 22, 2013 @02:50PM (#5099162)
I don't see why giving the user more info on how to handle a full project since the beginning is a bad thing, the django part will certainly be independent of the rest of the tools.
