I don't know the details of BSL, but can HashiCorp now require compensation/$$$ from Spacelift, Scalr, Env0, etc? In that case, these products can be forced to offer similar pricing as Terraform Cloud.

In my organization, we teach developers Terraform, and give them a reference Terraform setup (IaC repository) for running their apps in. They also have broad permissions in their own, isolated AWS account. There are some tradeoffs, but one

How come nobody has mentioned the endless hazzle in Linux to make multiple displays work as expected? On most setups, I find myself lucky if _something_ doesn't go wrong when connecting my displays with a mix of USB-C and HDMI. And of

> having everything squashed into one commit can be annoying if the commit is too large, because it can be hard to identify why a specific change was made via git blame. True, you can't via git blame. You can however go to the Githu

I play FPS games, and I perform worse when I'm drinking, and I get sleepy. So for me it works better to stay sober. Actually I prefer to stay sober even while watching a show, because I don't like the dizzy feeling, unless if drin

I agree. I have been programming for many years, working in the industry for four years, and have always been interested in improving with clean code, testing and whatnot. I read the Pragmatic Programmer last year, and it was .. very boring
