This thread prompted me to throw Fedora on my Chromebook. First time using it, poo poo works out of the box, and it might be my new go-to desktop distro. Wayland still needs a decent dwm/xmonad replacement though - tiling wms are good and I won't be convinced otherwise. I'm late to container chat but drone/consul/kubernetes type setups are a lot like systemd in my mind: some garbage involved, but there's no desire to go back to what it was like before.

carry on then posted:it's a better backend than node or php by far im really starting to loathe groovy+ratpack+rxjava and would almost rather work in node. both are still better than java+springboot by a longshot. the biggest reason im sticking with the jvm (and not driving adoption of something actually enjoyable like .net mvc) is things like hystrix that are difficult to replace for us.

Notorious b.s.d. posted:Universe and Launchpad.net are sources of "works on my machine" issues This is exactly the reason why Docker, Drone, Concourse, etc. are a thing now - deterministic builds/deploys are important when you have a million microservices being deployed to ephemeral resources like k8s. I'm used to having to deal with installation of gradle wrappers/nvm/Go/.net core/pip/whatever as part of CI/CD and daily life so I'll give Ubuntu a rare pass in this specific use case. Some development probably embraces the stability and security of older versions of a build toolchain shipping with the core part of a distro, but that's not the case for all dev. Still not a good distro, to your point.

switched from arch to fedora, and its pretty good, although I uninstall all the wayland/gnome crap now after it flaked on me a few times. im also an idiot that likes compiling my wm/terminal when i want to change a font size. dnf seems better than pacman and apt i guess? luchadornado fucked around with this message at 21:29 on Apr 27, 2018 |

i deployed something to a new centos instance yesterday and couldnt figure out why nginx kept throwing up "permission denied" gang signs for an hour or two until i figured it out. the same thing worked fine on ubuntu. thanks, selinux.

BangersInMyKnickers posted:I do question the logic of running a VM that large when you're going to be consuming at least half the host if not the whole thing. Bare metal, baby fair point - at least at my office we have constraints that would impact our downstream consumers if we moved from the cloud to our dc's bare metal. same reasons we're looking at moving our proxies and some other things into k8s stateful sets, which is another "defeats the purpose" type thing

i think compiling your wm to change a color is the dumbest thing ever, but here i am enjoying dwm and tinkering in the source when i want something different. there's something with the simplicity and DIY-ness of the suckless apps that reminds me of all the hobbyist poo poo in the 80s/90s.

Cybernetic Vermin posted:would i fire an employee going 'it is not rape if you're drunk' in a public discussion about the harassment policy of a trade show the company was organizing? yes, yes i would this is perfectly reasonable, so will fly over the heads of any of the anti-coc trolls. that post meritocracy manifesto sounds dumb as poo poo, but maybe dont post your lovely beliefs about rape/gender/race/religion for the entire world to see, and you wont have the sjws chasing you with pitchforks. wayland works fine out of the box in fedora, but im only using it now because its literally the path of least resistance. if i had to put 5 minutes of time into it, thered be no point to using it. it sounds like theyre making progress on screen sharing and some other things but thats a pretty low bar. firefox support has been "very soon" for a long time. id settle for 2018 being the year of firefox supporting wayland, but i doubt that will even happen: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=Wayland
