We've been blocking off Wed/Thurs as no meetings day for engineers largely inspired by this article. It's amazing how much you'll get done with 2 days a week uninterrupted. Down side is that it's tough to schedule a meeting (and room), so some meetings get pushed back by days or weeks.

To be fair, that's the result coming from commandlinefu.com itself.

+1 please do. As an accelerator connected to US capital & experience, same language/culture, and being in the same timezone with a 2hr flight, this can only mean great things. A lot of engineers in the community here (myself included) are not necessarily willing to give up life in beautiful Vancouver to move to an industrial park in Silicon Valley.

Exactly. My poke was meant to highlight the fact that a language is more than just syntax. I'm assuming this is intended more as a tool for helping start a transition into Scala, with a heavy amount of refactoring afterwards to convert it to idiomatic Scala.

Now we just need a OOP -> FP converter ;)

I'm curious why you're running a docker file instead of committing a pre existing development docker container, and shipping that as the deployment artifact? This approach seems to treat docker more as provisioning tool (ansible, chef, puppet etc) and less as a continuous delivery "shipping container" tool.

Your adf-config tool makes me think of etcd: https://github.com/coreos/etcd
