No just click through. No address required.
What's naive is to complacently and condescendingly assume that Canada is handling this any better. It doesn't look that way from my province.
If you're Canadian and you think you have this beat, you're wrong.

I was wondering what Terragrunt is and now I know, sort of, so thanks.

This is not a space I know much about and I have nothing intelligent to ask, but since you know this space and you're soliciting questions, I'll just ask you to confirm or correct a suspicion I have about "devops" in general.

It seems to me there are currently two competing, mutually exclusive paradigms for deployment at scale. One is to develop and deploy microservices in Docker containers and deploy using Kuberneres, and the other is to deploy cloud images using Terraform and config management tools.

It seems to me that these two approaches are pretty much incompatible, and I must choose one or the other, and there's very little overlap, if any. Do you think this is so, or am I missing something important?

Does signal still require me to share a phone number?

Yes. Maybe look at Gstreamer.

I wonder how go garbage collection and real time data streams get along together.

MDN docs are very good.

For landscape, I also like the webrtchacks.com blog, and a very smart consultant runs a blog at bloggeek.me.

The Twilio page you posted was good.

I really like BlogGeek.me for WebRTC info. Here's an entry on the various servers involved.

Ask HN: Opinions on Talky.io

I've been reading about WebRTC lately and found https://talky.io. (I'm in no way affiliated with them.) The service seems solid, and it's free for up to 6 members. (The company providing the service sells access to a network of TURN servers along with a React frontend that simplifies client dev.) With all the talk here of Zoom/Jitsi/etc, I'm surprised I haven't seen it mentioned here, and I'm...

I've seen molecule mentioned a lot, but I've never used it. My understanding is that it will spin up a container, vm or cloud image for you, run your playbooks, validate the result and tear down for you. Seems like a lot of trouble. Red Hat maintains it, I believe.

I like that, rube goldberg mechanism, good way to describe it. How it uses ssh also slows it down. Mitigen speeds it up significantly.
