Dev and DevOps Twitter, how are you generating and passing secrets to your apps? e.g. API keys or DB connection string with user/password. A lot of copypasting around? Been experimenting with a simple tool to help 👇🏾

If I ever lose touch this hard please disable my Twitter account
TypeScript sucked out much of the joy I had writing JavaScript. I’m forever grateful that @yukihiro_matz didn’t succumb to the pressure of adding similar type hints to Ruby. May we forever enjoy this beloved language without 🙏 zverok.space/blog/2023-05-05…

X : Didn't you say the future is severless? Me : It is. Why? X : No place for monoliths? Me : Always, for highly industrialised large scale components behind the scenes when you know what you need. Why? X : primevideotech.com/video-str… Me : And?

One of my best reads in the past few years, that goes to show that life sometimes is more dramatic than drama and you don't need fictional drama to learn life lessons albertbridgecapital.com/post…

X : Our project to bring our system on AWS in-house has been a financial success. Me : Excellent. Can I see the figures? .... Me : Where's power, aircon cost, buildings? X : Those are provided by the data centre. Me : But you're paying for those elsewhere ...

I don't see it. What new tech? WASM? Abstractions/standards that catch on tend to stick around for a (long) while. "Docker" containers etc. like TCP/IP and JS runtime. The insides will get reinvented for better perf but the "API" will remain even though suboptimal.
I think we'll start to see folks start gravitating again towards ridiculously fast, specialized deployment solutions for the tech they're actually using once they see how much faster they can iterate when they don't have to wait for deploys ever again.

Wow .NET Native AOT (Ahead-of-Time complied), is real! I've not followed for a bit. Great to see it happening. Been years in the baking iirc. 👏🏾 learn.microsoft.com/en-us/do…
I just got an #aspnetcore native AOT API app running on Alpine locally via WSL2 & Docker. Total container size 23.4MB Thanks to @ChetHusk for the help on a 2hr video call! More to share soon... #dotnet #sneakpeek

I had a similar view when I was just playing around a few years back. But as soon as I was thinking and building abstractions it made way more sense (hence @openfabr CDF)

To any ML/AI indie/solopreneur folks, do you have a Python API backend? Which framework and what's your hosting setup?

One of the fun things about working at Uber was how we did operate our own data centers (well - the DC team), which came with a bunch of tradeoffs. "Why did Uber do this, and how?" I didn't know too many details until now. Here's what I learned, talking with engineers:
Uber has operated its own data centers for 9 years. But now that has all changed, with the ride-hailing / food delivery company signing long-term contracts with Google and Oracle. So what’s different? I talked with insiders to find the answers. Part 1: newsletter.pragmaticengineer…
