I believe the commenter was more talking about giving shells to a daemon than any sudo shenanigans.


I reread, can see that now. I think the commentor was speaking to a conversation that had shifted. I’ll leave my comment but also vote them up - theirs was a fair point.


Working out some discovery and maybe a PoC for a CI/CD pipeline. We're trying some interesting micro-service techniques for a new internal platform, and I'm juggling a lot of technologies and stacks to get everything to operate and deploy correctly.

The post earlier from Single SPA about their import-map-deployer spurred some huge progress for coordinating frontend deployments.


I narrowly avoided layoffs when I worked in the enterprise space for years; finally got spooked enough after a very large merger that I left to go work in the start-up space.

Got laid off two weeks ago with not much to walk away with except a weeks salary. There were severe cash-flow problems, and I get the impression that those that remained at work are potentially facing some more layoffs soon.

Sort of freaked out for a day or so and started grinding through the "find a new job ASAP" process. Thankfully the market where I live seems to be doing well, so I have a new gig to walk into next week.

Currently looking for a role doing full-stack development or purely backend work. Very proficient at some of the activities of an SRE as well.


Mostly good. Celebrating 10 months of being sober and leaving my last job.

Just spent the past two days rolling out a new Elasticsearch cluster for work that was giving me panic attacks for weeks (first time “architecting” on that level). Things went really well, so I can probably sleep alright before a big “investors meeting” later this week.

Idk, I feel good. I just think I could probably sleep a bit more and be better.

How are _you_?


Great job on the sobriety. I never had an issue with alcohol and virtually never drink it, but I struggle with sugary foods, so I think I get the challenge, in principle. Awesome job on the development stuff as well.

I'm doing good. I finally wrapped up a project (the second edition of my book) which allows me to take on new projects that excite me.

I have some challenges to overcome but I'm pretty optimistic about the future. And yeah, I too struggle with sleep (I average 6.5 hrs). I find the Apple Watch app SleepWatch quite useful and of course diet and exercise help with sleep as well.


Was certainly an interesting alert when my Cloud Functions started reporting downtime. Among the many things that dip in and out on what seems like a monthly basis, I’ve not seen them just drop out in quite a while. Hopefully they get things sorted out. I can’t really imagine what it looks like internally when this level of outage is going on, but I want to think everyone is fairly collected


Just picked up the “complete edition”. Really looking forward to going through it all. This looks great!


Thanks, looking forward to hearing your thoughts on it!

It's an expertly played 4.25 year long con...


I was thinking more like a friend of the author..


haha, nope, no idea who d2xdy2 is but I highly appreciate them for buying the book though! :D


Just a developer in Atlanta.


Perhaps. One of the things I sort of like about Twilio is that they can do "credits" and I have the option to only pay for a certain amount.


Right after having his wrist slapped, for some abnoxious reason.

It’s really strange to see people who are genuinely interested in knowledge and sharing a learning experience get shut down.

It also is just upsetting because Cody’s Lab contains so much interesting material.


Showed this to some of the dev team / folks around NBA. Overwhelming good response. Good job!

You work for the NBA?


No; I work in on the Turner side of Adult Swim Digital... but I do get to talk to / see some of those guys pretty often.
