Same, I think this document is fundamental to our industry and understanding complex systems. We have it as a quarterly reminder to review in our Slack. I give it to everyone that makes it past the first couple of interviews when applying a

Never. It never makes sense to me, why would I want to carry around another computer to read? Why can’t I unplug and enjoy my book? I tried it, it sucked and management was even worse.

DragonFlyBSD would be really interesting here as well since its kernel has Light Weight Kernel Threads that use message passing. Similar in shape to Erlang/BEAM. Though I guess you've built the kernel in Erlang... so wrong abstrac

So we burn the planet up to deploy individually craft UIs on demand? I mean, I've read your comment three times, and I just don't see it. If we end up in that future, we're doomed.

Here[0] is a talk that shows off some of these tools. Mark led the way on many of these ideas internally. [0]: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yGcaofDq8SM

Well many of them you may know in that they made their way into so many systems (though arguably without the refined UX of Heroku) but the two that come up the most and I am teaching others: * The simpler the interface for the user, the mor

I agree with everything you said, and can only thank the founders for their tremendous insight and willingness to push the limits. The shear number of engineering practices we take for granted today because of something like Heroku boggles

by asenchi 7mo ago
Yeah I think there is a lot of truth here. You can't solve all the problems and in Heroku's case we focused on user experience (internally and externally). Great ideas like "git push heroku main" are game changers, but w

It is hard to explain the impact of such massive growth over a 2-3 period. New features were coming online while old ones were being abused by overuse. For instance, we launched PostgreSQL in the cloud, something we take for granted today.

Haha, funny you should mention that as I was just telling a coworker that story as we worked on a new dashboard for our infrastructure. :D

I remember Solomon's demoing at All Hands... it was such a crazy time for tech and innovation.

It remains the greatest engineering team I've ever seen or had the pleasure to be a part of. I was only there from early 2011 to mid 2012 but what I took with me changed me as an engineer. The shear brilliance of the ideas and approach

You are still selecting one verse to interpret an entire culture. Misleading at best. And saying this is "white washing history" is silly. Continue reading the Bible and you'll see that it is the Christian Worldview that even

Cherry picking the bible isn't going to get you any closer to understanding. There are a lot of reasons God ordained society in a certain way. Keep reading and you'll discover that is a much more complex situation than you let on.

Yeah I'd like to continue playing the game. Perhaps 10 verses before the limit kicks in to save on resources?

This document by Dr. Cook remains _the standard_ for systems failure. Thank you for bringing it into the discussion.

A natural consequence of a system that promotes radical individuality, false scarcity, fear of missing out, greed, and violence. Win at all costs.

One way to think about it is that we were created to be in a loving relationship with God. The same way we were created to breathe oxygen. It is designed to be that way. But we're intelligent beings, if someone chooses not to be in you

I don’t think it is so much “unquestioning loyalty and trust” but a loving relationship with the creator of the universe. It is hardly a distinction without difference. The story continues that God came to earth as a man who, while innocent

If you can’t or won’t see the truth in the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ I pray that it is revealed to you and you have life changing faith. Either way, be blessed in your day and week.

God, who is referred to as love, created beings in his image to tend to his creation, and to be in a love relationship with him. He himself created out of a loving relationship (read up on his triune nature). Rather than make them automaton

Except the God of the Bible picked all three. That is what makes it the greatest story ever told. :)

Yes, out of love he gave us the agency and dignity to choose not to be in a love relationship with him. Faith in Jesus Christ and the arrival of the Kingdom of God to set things right provides us a means to enter into a relationship with hi

It is absolutely not a "clean break". While Judaism and Christianity are distinct, they are related in that Christianity builds on the Hebrew Scriptures. I think perhaps the best imagery for their relationship is Romans 11 and the

This is answered throughout scriptures. The problem of sin is human's rejection of the goodness of God. We love ourselves more than we love him and in that rejection regularly advantage ourselves at the disadvantage of those around us.

Thoughts like this miss the purpose and significance of the maxim being discussed. Science doesn't disprove an "almighty, unexplainable divine entity" any more than an "almighty, unexplainable divine entity" could a
