No doubt, meant to be self study notebook originally. Listed in the end couple of whole interesting reads.

Eagerly waiting for the alpha version 5! It's been 2 years since the stable 4.1 release.

Nice. I wonder if the stateful merits provided and marketed by containers orchestrates (e.g. K8S) is something they will consider in the future? ..

A couple of days ago, I tried to search on how AWS operates RDS behind the scenes, since it is a managed stateful service I was wondering whether it runs in a traditional way VM-based or in a fully containerized environment? .. Unfortunately, a simple search will lead you to the consumer/customer resources out there only.

Waiting patiently for HashiCorp! I tried through EquityZen but no luck.

Programming Quotes 8 years ago

I grouped XML quotes to share with my manager:

The essence of XML is this: the problem it solves is not hard, and it does not solve the problem well.

        — Phil Wadler, POPL 2003
XML is like violence: if it doesn’t solve your problem, you aren’t using enough of it.
        — Heard from someone working at Microsoft
XML is like violence. Sure, it seems like a quick and easy solution at first, but then it spirals out of control into utter chaos.
        — Sarkos in reddit
Most xml i’ve seen makes me think i’m dyslexic. it also looks constipated, and two health problems in one standard is just too much.
        — Charles Forsyth
Nobody who uses XML knows what they are doing.
        — Chris Wenham

It's probably a good time to check if you have some safety against `rm -fr `.

Two days ago, I wanted to delete .git only, but accidentally as my fingers were accustomed with -fr , the command was `rm -fr * .git`. Rails server was running and some hope arose at the moment to just `lsof | grep` .. unfortunately that didn't work with me !

Ironically, all dot files have stuck as obvious :)
