I found my password to this site only to reply to this: I am, it's a work in progress, and theres so many different failure modes I'll just keep going.
Yeah I've been considering a CI container + data volume with a CD pipeline to do that; zero downtime if you factor in anything but your own load balancers is tough though
Honestly I'd happily discuss any of the topics, especially the one command let's encrypt docker topic. The team and I are crazy excited about let's encrypt and the potential of zero downtime deployments using a container architecture
It's not a marketing blog actually; it's a developer blog by my team and I who work heavily and provide technical details on how we're doing interesting things with docker and swarm.
Literally nothing is written by "marketing" - just developers. And it's definitely not spam, if you look at https://getcarina.com/blog/push-button-lets-encrypt/ for example it's a complete tutorial on a simple nginix and docker let's encrypt post.
If it ever a marketing blog, I'll happily give myself a wedgie.
Grow up without money and constant financial worry, without a sense of home / self and few / no friends and start in the workforce when you're a teenager. You find yourself in "always make more money to be more secure" and "always look for validation from other that you belong". You become career driven as thats what defines you - and a "community" becomes your self reinforcement and friends.
"I recognize myself in the behavior that the writer describes. Going all-in on too many things, and all the negative consequences that result from that."
From my ex, and good friend whose account got mod-flagged for unknown reasons:
""
This is beautiful, truly thank you for your judgement.
While it is none of anyone's business. This was an AMICABLE decision both Jesse and I came to. MA is the girls home. We moved to TX as a thought things could get better, new job that was supposed to give us our life together back. The girls wanted to be home, near family, near friends so they could heal. Jesse saw their pain and mine.. I suppose caring for children and doing what they need is selfish. Then I am very selfish to give my children what they need.
This context-missing statement is the epitome of what Jesse always despised about the internet.""
And a reply from my ex (and good friend) whose account got flagged "dead" (dnoller13) to you:
As the ex - He is in the process of healing, dealing with doctors, finding himself and probably in some ways, some of the physical distance might be good thing. What folks don't know is that we co-parent even from a distance. Yes the girls miss him. Miss his hugs, his close presence. However they understand that their Dad is still there for them. We have a good schedule to ensure that during extended breaks he gets to see them, either here or there.
One day we do hope he will come back here as this is where the girls have called home. However can remain patient and nonjudgmental until that time.
Nooooooo - it wasn't a drive by email about a patch. It was rot from personalities and bad actors questioning every aspect of being part of a community, trying to push for change, lead, etc.
Luckily, I am in fact talking to a licensed therapist and they disagree with your assessment provided additional context and that's ok. The internet is a hard place for empathy.
Callous? Yes, no? I haven't finished the 3(!) followups to this, so by way of empathizing with your end-result (e.g. just move) with the information I also have I can say "it is not a binary choice".
Factor in the following: my ex and I are still best friends and confidants. As we went through this little slice of hell, what was best for our kids above what was best for us was top of mind.
Now, factor in the following: I've learned - the hard way - that investing yourself into certain things can net you things you didn't have. For example, without dumping all into the community, I wouldn't be where I am in my career, and I would not have discovered things about what I want to do in that career.
Now factor in what I described is the sign of an extremely obsessive, insecure, and potentially depressed personality with no actual definition of "self" outside of community, work, and kids. Literally - now that I've set boundaries I'm busy looking around saying "Uh. Shit. Who am I?"
Now factor in the strict clinical definition of what you go through in a divorce - it's akin to significant loss (e.g a death in the family). You go through (as I am) many stages of that including grief, depression, etc. I'm somewhere in the no man's land without an end in sight just as of yet.
Now factor in the severe anxiety and depression that comes with all of that. Yes - I could quit my job and move just to be near my girls. However not being physically or mentally fit outside of my definition of self in my career I would be throwing myself into a position of not "not moving on my own terms".
Think of it like this: I agreed, with my ex, that this would be the best course of action for now. Just up and moving wouldn't solve the root cause of why we separated, it would just solve one aspect of "me". This would result in a probable mis-directed resentment on my part towards my ex, my children and others.
Therefore, while given the information you gleaned you may be correct albeit callous, you are right that there are many more factors in a situation like this to be taken into account.
Net-net - mental health is hard. Recovery is hard - you can't tell a depressed person to "just don't be sad" and you can tell a person with an addiction (such as I've gone through) to just "give it up" without a goal, or a process by which to solve the root cause.
I did. And thank you - you hit the nail on the head with "It's tough to feel like you've fallen short, even when you realize the goal was unrealistic or that others would have been happier for you not to try."
As for the rest, simply thank you - and yeah, I shouldn't be reading the comments ;)
We rebuilt picloud as a foray into the getcarina.com space - https://github.com/cloudpipe/cloudpipe we're going to be bringing that back now that carina is landed.
This is honestly fantastic feedback and spot-on for the level of abstraction I want (and will) aim for. This is an early Beta, so things like this are top of mind.
Exactly - we really struggled with this. A node (for example, when doing a Docker info when having $SWARM hosts) implies to the user physical isolation. As a distributed systems nerd, I pushed for "anything that doesn't make a contract it's on a different machine". Segment, slice, pod, chunk, block - something other than implying the isolation and therefore fault tolerance of the overall system.
Hey Solomon; honest question - skipping the tête-à-tête for a moment, the first tenant you outline:
> 1) interface to the app and developer should be standardized, and enforced ruthlessly to prevent fragmentation
Is one I've been pondering and asking myself about a bit - what does this mean?
Is the interface the API? The docker CLI? Interfaces to libcontainer?
Where does the line "enforced ruthlessly" fall exactly?
Does this mean wrapping the CLI or API in another convenience layer is a no-no if it doesn't expose the docker API directly?
I think the rest of the 13 make perfect sense, and I actually don't think the CoreOS guys we're going against any of those in practice or philosophy; more they wanted something small that did one thing very well.
Anyway, I love you guys and the coreos guys, so I'm only in it for the swag.
