This made me do a double-take. Surely you would never do this, right? It seems to be directly counter to the idea of being able to audit changes:

“Event replay: if we want to adjust a past event, for example because it was incorrect, we can just do that and rebuild the app state.”

Yes, they are. They are as free as adding a new endpoint.

You're talking about integrating multiple projects. There are always contract. You simply chose to be ignorant of that fact and fail to interpret breaking those contracts as the root cause of all your problems.

You point out anyone lauding monorepos as some kind of solution to any problem and I assure you that we can immediately isolate one or more problems caused by versioning and breaking contracts.

The only reason why we see this nonsense paraded in web services is that they are loosely coupled. When people worked mainly with modules and libraries, compiler and linking errors made this sort of error very obvious. Now people chose to unlearn facts and want to call that operational improvements.

Correct me if I'm wrong:

    - GitOps is a fancy word recently created by Gitlab or Github to sound cooler
    - It means storing your code / services in git and deploying on push

It all seems so weird. We had tools like puppet since ice ages which can, after you push to git, reconfigure and deploy whatever you described in your git. Over all your fleet of machines.

Am I missing something?

Does anyone know how well does DuckDB's persistent mode compare to SQLite for example?

Does it write synchronously on COMMIT and never lose data? Is it reliable enough to use instead of SQLite?

I wish the one-sentence descriptions were displayed in the lists. When I click through to https://terminaltrove.com/new/, I have to click through every single one of those names to find out what they are. It'd be a lot nicer if I could swoop through and see "grv: git repository viewer. netop: network topology visualizer. dive: tool for exploring each layer in a docker image." etc.

(edit to add: This is already pretty great, I love curated collections like this, I just also see a way to make it even better!)

I use both Slack and Discord webapps in the according profile, why not use that? They already run in sandboxed browser instances (I guess), so there's even less overhead running them in your browser. (I did not do extensive testing, so I might be wrong here)

Very cool, and interesting that Martin Kleppmann of DDIA is an author. I am glad to come across this - I was brainstorming such a manifesto, now I can use this as a resource.

One local first that I recently switched to is migrating from ynab.com to my own Libre Calc spreadsheets. It took a few days to figure out all the formulas, but now I have even more control over how I track my budget.
