Sure. And that’s positive in the context of this thread.

I don’t see it as too dogmatic. I see it as taking the ambiguity out of the decision whether to squash or not. Just always squash into master. There are plenty of options to make creating PRs more lightweight. Another nice thing with squash

My guess is that the difference is the tax on a annual Pro subscription.

As of PostgreSQL 12, whether the optimization fence is used or not is controlled with MATERIALIZED and NOT MATERIALIZED.

Agreed. I just tried out the Dash hot key and it’s basically the same. I’m tempted to claim the Alfred integration is better but that’s probably just me being a user of Alfred.

by zomgwat 3y ago
For me, the combination of Dash and Alfred is the productivity boost. Alfred makes it very easy to search documentation in Dash. You can have unique keywords in Alfred to target specific packages in Dash. For example, “guava: ImmutableList

SSHing from one remote server to another won’t be possible in a lot of environments due to network segmentation. For example, it shouldn’t be possible to hop from one host to another via SSH in a prod network supporting a SaaS service. Net

Several things helped her accept the situation. 1. We regularly share photos through private photo albums. This allows her the same exposure to photos of the grandchildren as social media would. 2. We made it clear she's free to share

My wife and I have done similar. We privately share photos. It took a bit for my mom to get over the fact that she can’t post pictures of her grandkids on Facebook but I was eventually able to explain why in terms she understood.

Check out OneNote. Its shared notebooks should scale to 25-50 users. At a past employer, we used OneNote successfully at that scale instead of a wiki type solution. OneNote has a decent Mac app so it works in environments with both Windows

Exactly this. I also don’t ask permission because I consider this type of refactoring an implicit and fundamental responsibility.

Ha. Nope.

It sounds like we've had very similar experiences. The fact that what you've described is so similar to what I've seen may say something. There are reasons to have a bespoke billing system but people should try REALLY hard to

After spending years maintaining a home grown billing system, I recommend against rolling your own. It's frustrating to spend time adding yet another hack to account for some new use case while there is a stack of other priorities wait

Default deny egress is an important step in limiting impact. It can be tough though.

Regarding Sorbet and Rails, I recommend Tapioca [1]. The Rails app that I worked on had a few edge cases Tapioca didn't cover so I wrote a simple script to load the Rails app and generate RBI files (e.g. generate RBI definitions for fi

My experience with Tailwind + ViewComponent has been great as well. I've also had a lot of success with adding Sorbet typing to the view components. I often use Sorbet enums as view component options. The extra type safety in the view

by zomgwat 5y ago
This has been my experience using Sorbet. I sometimes get annoyed when I get stuck screwing around with the RBI files. Then I get in the flow and remember how fast Sorbet allows me to move.
19.
by zomgwat 5y ago
I've gotten a lot of value from integrating Sorbet into a non-trival 15 year old Rails app. The gradual nature of the typing is very nice. I've never written TypeScript but I suspect the tooling around Sorbet is pretty far behind

I understand your point. I'd expect the old version to have been reviewed when it was introduced into the system just as the new version should be. Of course, that doesn't guarantee something won't slip in. Running private pa

Security mailing lists. GitHub has security alerts. Good old fashioned RSS. For example, rubygems.org supports RSS for releases. GitHub Release pages also support RSS. An easy way to create a shared RSS feeds is to create a #news channel in

Another option is to use a cloud storage service that supports fine grained access control (e.g. write-only vs read-only) and retention polices.

How does traffic reach or leave the machine if a network level firewall is restricting access? It seems I have a fundamental misunderstanding of something.
24.
by zomgwat 5y ago
If I understand correctly, the attack can be mitigated with the appropriate level of firewall rules. Both ingress and egress traffic should be blocked by default and selectively allowed based on need. In this case, DHCP traffic would only b

I've actually been experimenting with something similar to what adrianpike describes. Basecamp is home to all higher level product/business stuff. In part, that's because everyone in the business has access to Basecamp and us

I use the Peloton app with my Keiser M3i. I bought the Keiser because I believe it to be a better product. I also didn't want to be bound to both Peloton hardware and software. I had the Keiser for years prior to subscribing to Peloton

Security is another factor in choosing not to use a database for things like queues. I like to keep access to the database as tight as possible. I don’t want to start dishing out network and account access to services just because they need

I agree. I’ll also add that Redis is a level easier to operate than RabbitMQ.

On the spectrum you've described, I'm progressively shifting from Uncle Bob's end to Carmack's the further I get into my career. I think of it as code density. I've found that high density code is often easier to gr
