I wasn't taking into account velocity of fleet-wide rollout, as I agree, you can migrate over time however. however, I was focusing on the idea that anytime of fleet wide rollout for a specific change was somehow "bad."

This right here. WTF do you do when you need to upgrade your underlying runtime such as Python, Ruby, whatever ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ you gotta go service by service.

So you should re-write your logging code on each and every one of your 140+ services vs. leverage a shared module?

Weird, maybe it's because I'm mostly gray haired at this point, but I find myself referring to my profession as "Computer Science" more and more as time passes.

If you truly need for MVC to manage all things state, component communications, and complex IxD in the front-end, sure, but not every app has that level of front-end complexity to warrant a SPA, in my opinion.

Fudge, I loved that guy and his work. I still remember how fun it was to binge The Road in a single day. I don't think I left my couch from the early morning on through to the late evening. Such a compelling and gripping writer.

I moved my family as the town I lived in did exactly this. They also removed support programs for those falling behind vs racing ahead. All under the equity banner.
The New town we moved to is great. Oldest kid in accelerated programs, accelerating. Younger kid got the support she needed to catch up. :chefs_kiss:
Taking a step back, I don’t know how ‘equity’ got twisted into creating a lowering tide for all vs. a rising tide for all. So confusing.

my kids ask me if I believe and I tell them I used to. However, given the HDR phone in everyones pocket for a decade+ and no photos of a ghost, alien, saucer, cryptid ????? I am now a non believer.

Oooooof. Rails (which I think they may be using) makes sanitization fairly easy.

Being totally immature here, but "Smashing the stack for fun and profit" would make a great book title for the Chaturbate memoir.

I’d watch this, FWIW. The exploration is where the fun/hate/elation/ and excitement occur. ️

So I Believe I understand where you are going with the kids comment. At some point as a species we need to procreate, so what method / system would you recommend?

Ah, thanks. See, too cynical :)

I'm too lazy to look this up, and probably a bit too cynical, but how much stimulus money did they receive?

In my experience those CEO's are extremely rare ... don't know how common my experience has been.
