but there is a reason i just explained it to you

Ok but is there room for the idea that your intuitions are incorrect? Plenty of things in the world are counter-intuitive. ‘docker-compose up -d’ works the same whether it’s one container or fifty.

Computer resources are measured in bits and clock cycles, not the number of containers and volumes. It’s entirely possible (even likely) that an all-in-one container will be more resource-heavy than the same services split across multiple containers. Logging from an all-in-one will be a jumbled mess, troubleshooting issues or making changes will be annoying, it’s worse in every way except the length of output from ‘docker ps’

I can see why editing config files is annoying, but why exactly are two services and volumes in a docker-compose file any more difficult to manage than one?

I disagree with pretty much all of this, you are trading maintainability and security for easy setup. Providing a docker-compose file accomplishes the same thing without the sacrifice

• separate volumes for configuration, data, and cache because I might want to put them in different places and use different backup strategies. Config and db on SSD, large data on spinning rust, for example.
• separate container for the database because the official database images are guaranteed to be better maintained than whatever every random project includes in their image
• separate networks because putting your reverse proxy on a different network from your database is just prudent

Sure, but having words for things makes them easier to talk about

I’m guessing since there’s no Central Gender Authority, there’s no standardization. People don’t fit into the labels available to them and make new ones, concurrently.

Can we get a link to an article or something?

Liberal here, there is definitely a 2 tiered justice system in the US what are you even talking about

Our disagreement is over the idea that somehow the billionaire with an army of lawyers, who appointed half the judges his cases are in front of, and has been given every conceivable affordance and courtesy, is anywhere other than the top of the privileged tier.

If you need honest-to-god office, then yeah you’ll need a windows installation. Either a VM or a second drive is best.

You can use windows indefinitely without activating, you’ll just have the watermark and default desktop background.

That’s not really true, we can definitely see yellow light. Red receptors and green receptors are both sensitive to it, which your brain correctly interprets as yellow.

Moon base on the surface is a great idea, I’m 1000% in favor.

Lunar gateway is in NRHO, which means rendezvous windows are a week apart. This makes it pretty useless for any kind of emergency. It’s in this crazy orbit because Orion is a pig that can’t transport a crew to low lunar orbit and back.

There’s a happy medium somewhere between Lord Farquad and “nothing happens until 18 committees in 23 states have determined there is less than a 0.00001% chance this unmanned probe will fail in any way”

You’re absolutely right, though the extreme risk aversion is harder to blame on congress.

You’re absolutely right, which is why I don’t want the left get tricked into defending a status quo that doesn’t deserve it.

The challenging thing here is that NASA does have deep, systemic problems and is in need of some overhaul. SLS is a breathtakingly expensive boondoggle, lunar gateway has no reason to exist, Orion is underpowered and overweight, Mars Sample Return’s entire mission is in question, JWST was a decade behind schedule and an order of magnitude over budget, and the list goes on. Extreme risk-aversion and congressional meddling have resulted in a bureaucratic quagmire of an organization. It’s hard to find nasa projects that are going well.

Of course I don’t think a gorilla with a sledgehammer as we’re sadly going to see from Trump will make things any better, we need a surgeon with a scalpel.

I love your writing OP

There are daytime people and nighttime people and they marry each other

I mean I agree but you don’t have to be a dick about it

I don’t get the hatred for types, they have saved my ass so many times and saved so many headaches exactly like what the article describes. I used to write a lot of ruby and after getting decent at typescript I can’t go back.

It’s not just ceremony, types ensure some level of logical consistency in your app. They reduce how much of the world you need to keep in your head at one time, and they allow you to express your intent far more robustly than comments and naming can. I love rust’s approach of making invalid state not even representable.

Seems fine, but you’re sorta hitting two fields at once. Application development (coding) is a different skill set from devops/deployment (docker). I’d stay pretty surface level on docker and the CLI for now and focus on building your app. You’ll know when you need to go off and learn those things.

ignorance is bliss
