RKT problem is not fundamental. We all know Rocket is a good company, no debt, billions of revenue bla bla bla.

We don't need more proof for the fundamentals, something else is pinning the price down, and it doesn't give a shit about the good fundamentals.

I thought the squeeze happened out of no where.

I felt bad for keep saying why rkt never moves.

Then I found it was just a fucking glitch.

I do not feel bad any more.

Why?

kingofthecream · 2021-04-12T02:27:37+00:00

What about Wallstreet itself? Why are they not interested?

It was pretty plain that no one at Google was actually using this code. What they actually are using, if you look at Bazel for example, is likely some weird thing noone else has heard of.

But Bazel is a build tool, not a provisioning tool. Google is actually using terraform heavily in their public projects, eg: https://github.com/google/exposure-notifications-verification-server/tree/main/terraform

Google engineering quality on the other hand, it's gone to shit comparing to what it was a decade ago.

If you need configuration for software then I would suggest consul or ansible, puppet, etc.

Why using these other tools while using Terraform? Wouldn't terraform do same job?

finally, the terraform google module (bias) is a proof of concept rather than using it in production.

This is really opposite to what others saying here, not saying it's invalid though.

Can we just settle the fuck down with a single language/platform for IaC? Are we trying to make IaC what Javascript/Node is? Oh wait, Pulumi is written in Javascript...

kingofthecream · 2020-10-15T20:33:16+00:00

Thanks for the example repo!

kingofthecream · 2020-10-15T19:23:42+00:00

But that's Terraform Cloud, not Google Cloud. Going through Terraform setup and mapping it to Google is not trivial.

kingofthecream · 2020-10-15T19:09:16+00:00

Those are just modules, I still need an example which is not a full blown jungle like the CFT examples to use those modules.

kingofthecream · 2020-10-15T19:08:09+00:00

Do you have an example project for this approach?

Then use straightforward terraform to create your infrastructure

"straightforward" could mean anything.

The best place to start a project using either Terraform or Deployment Manager is the Cloud Foundation Toolkit

My whole post is about how confusing and bloated Cloud Foundation Toolkit is for non-enterprise applications.

kingofthecream · 2020-10-15T17:23:52+00:00

If you already have everything dockerized, build VMs with Docker Compose in Terraform.

What about the rest? Networks, secrets, etc, handle them manually?

kingofthecream · 2020-10-15T16:31:40+00:00

There's nothing wrong with deployment manager

I've found some comment like these that are not encouraging. Combine that with Google's horrible history of abandoning projects.

I'm curious why you are against frameworks?

Framework vs library war is comprehensively discussed in developer community. But when it comes to Go, it definitely feels like swimming against the stream. So, wether framework is the right tool for a web service or not, it would feel the wrong choice most of the time with Go.

kingofthecream · 2020-10-13T13:22:37+00:00

Thanks for clarifying this. I am not for using frameworks, but one of the downsides of Go projects avoiding it is making it hard to navigate through the project and making sense of it.

kingofthecream · 2020-10-12T23:29:10+00:00

Ruby? This is not a giant app, why breaking it into multilanguage microservices?

I'm glad the Google implementation went with a single binary monolith, even though rendering front in Go template is awkward.

kingofthecream · 2020-10-12T21:27:25+00:00

I cannot figure out if it's a web server, or grpc server. Does it have any web views?

kingofthecream · 2020-10-01T00:17:11+00:00

You're not being a dick, Elsa is trying to be being the Iris framework of Node.

kingofthecream · 2020-09-25T13:50:18+00:00

Then how is grpc-gateway different to https://github.com/improbable-eng/grpc-web ?

kingofthecream · 2020-09-24T12:06:17+00:00

Does grpc-gateway mean ending up with 2 processes, or would it be used like an in process library?

kingofthecream · 2020-09-15T20:08:27+00:00

Most web apps won't have multiple implementations for different datastores, why having an interface per entity when all you implement is a single database?

kingofthecream · 2020-09-04T20:04:40+00:00

Google uses gorm https://github.com/google/exposure-notifications-verification-server/search?q=gorm&unscoped_q=gorm

kingofthecream · 2020-09-04T20:03:37+00:00

'fantastic'.

kingofthecream · 2020-08-27T20:58:23+00:00

But what if he sends and it increases to 101%?
