incredible to see Andreessen Horowitz institute a jobs program for white men they admit are unqualified, after all that complaining that "DEI" was ruining their dreams of meritocracy

We use Heroku for a bunch of apps, and we've been unable to use review apps for nearly two weeks now. It's a disaster.
I'm curious: Where are other teams (esp. in government) moving to from Heroku?
Heroku had a catastrophic security incident involving GitHub OAuth tokens on April 15. It's not resolved; Heroku customers still cannot use GitHub CI/CD integration.
And hilariously, nobody is talking about it because nobody uses Heroku anymore 😂

@bejamas Maybe it's time to change this green check for Heroku to a yellow dollar sign with a note that it'll cost you (in time, at least) to manage automatic GitHub deployments until they get this sorted? bejamas.io/compare/heroku-vs…

What web servers, platforms, and/or tools are folks using to manage large lists of URL redirects? Nginx, Varnish, HAProxy, maybe even Apache mod_rewrite? Or do you do this in your app server framework of choice? Hosted CDN?

React Server Components seem cool. I'm wondering, though, whether anyone has designed a framework-agnostic rendering API that broadcasts (using a standard schema) which components are available and how to render them as HTML and/or embed + hydrate them on the client?
Lots of pitfalls to consider:
* Security (sanitization/XSS, CSP)
* Passing children (slots?)
* Event handlers
* Composition
etc. etc.
