I'm still pretty new to devops and I personally love Jenkins but man is it a PITA at times. My biggest gripe is that every plug-in seems to be no longer actively maintained. We really on a huge list of plug-ins and in some cases upgrading Jenkins will break plug-ins. It's gotten to the point where I'm afraid to update to even minor or patch versions.

Yeah, I could have worded that better. I know Zyzz was on bb.com only (well, and 4chan).

It would be super rad if someone plugged this dataset into CMU Sphinx. Google is the only decent ASR and a competitive open source alternative would be awesome. A big thank you to Mozilla for this dataset.

This comment hits the nail on the head for me.

Pick a cloud provider. Spin up an instance that will be your server. Spin up an instance that will be your DB. Make your DB only listen to your server instance. Make your server instance only listen on port 80/443.

As long as your app isn't vulnerable to SQL injection type stuff, that's probably enough security for an MVP, and this kind of set up puts you on the right track for scalability.

Are you saying the tech industry doesn't have a diversity problem? Isn't the gender ratio all the evidence you need?

I learned a different version of this, especially relevant to those in the Bay Area.

During a gold rush, don’t dig for gold, sell shovels!

Looks like someone could use pgbouncer :)

This tool shows a lot of promise to me and I've already installed it on our stage box. Thanks!

Some of our log lines contain large json blobs that uno only ignores when I set the difference ratio >50%. Maybe you could add some sort of json detection and parsing identify and ignore similar JSON? Seems tricky but just an idea. Also, the go routine seems to panic on the linux and mac binaries when I run "uno --help".

Tools are needed that turn log analysis into more science than art. We currently use the ELK stack to analyze our logs and it works pretty well but still feels like spelunking.

Do any of you HNers have any logging tools you'd recommend?

Yuval Noah Harari has a different argument in his book Sapiens. He says that we’re living in the most peaceful period of human existence ever and it’s caused by a few factors. #1 the stakes are too high because of nuclear weapons and #2 now more than ever a country’s resources are the brains of its inhabitants, which can’t exactly be conquered.

I think we’re definitely seeing the landscape of war changing. I really hope traditional bloody war is obsolete.

Not sure if the OP will see this but http://sharpnado.com/ points to a “parked” page so you probably want a redirect.
