Have you ever worked with git?
It is obvious the intern has the codebase and the commit history and that is why when he published the new project part of the commit history of replit was on the new project, it is 100% obvious he has copied part of it yes.
on a seriously technical point of view. It is obvious the person kept the code repository and when making a new project the commit history (or part of it) moved together.
So excluding how the CEO acted, it is obvious the intern has the codebase (or part of it) and I am pretty sure that under their contract they are not allowed to do what they did.
As for the way they approach things, ye the CEO is from YC getting praised from PG on twitter, his Ego is beyond the moon and acts like it, dont expect anything more.
Also Replit is INSANELY overvalued as a product.
not using docker has nothing to do with a simple ci/CD solution. having pull requests run tests and then creating releases especially when you have a single binary should be dead easy and a very basic part of your Development life cycle.
I don't use docker in production, but use it heavily on developers machines or to setup infra during QA.
The article doesn't really say anything except "look at me not using docker you haters".
okay fair enough.
but I guess then it doesn't offer anything extra for us as we have already the ETL Platform self made and we add the process with just an extra file.
thanks!
before I try yet another ETL tool. How does this work with datasets that do not come from 3rd party providers like salesforce etc?
I have had to build ETL pipelines for highly customized datasets either row level based or xml with I would say tricky code as the nesting or flows were not so simple and a lot of data missing.
How would Meltano or the other mention tools handle this?
They are competing here in Berlin, against DeliveryHero (which bought foodora and other smaller deliveries).
They are both the same, except the restaurant coverage. From that I can assume they have a better b2b model.
Wolt prices are higher, even though DeliveryHero prices are already higher, including the distance extra payment for me it makes it stupid to order.
I understand that the drivers get paid more and it is obvious, but as a consumer to pay 30% more for a delivery, is insane.
Back in the day you would get FREE delivery from restaurants and even extras.
Being corona lockdown I prefer to walk and get my food.
This is not a judgement against Wolt, but against this whole delivery system.
I find the article a bit hard to follow. What were the actual requirements?
I probably didnt understand all of this, but was the time spent on thinking about this more valuable than using a KV Store?
