Most Adobe tools don’t have any good free alternatives even for home use.

inkscape is on a level with illustrator (maybe even better)

for drawing: try krita

if you want to pay money (much much less than for adobe): Affinity is on a level with fotoshop

I guess it’s a cheap version of reactive armor. i.e. it shatters on impact while absorbing/spreading most of the force.

is stateless possible without kubernetes? (and without vendor lock in?)

GP said:

RE: Containers, even if you DO go that route, do you really need Kubernetes, which will come at an additional monetary and also maintenance cost? The likely answer at least initially is a big fat “no”.

I agree, that good cloud engineers can save costs in the cloud. But I also think good non-cloud engineers, can save much much more.

When you are rewriting your entire stack to leverage cloud performance, you could probably spend a similar effort for a rewrite that increases regular performance by a similar factor.

RE: Containers, even if you DO go that route…

I was under the impression, that stateless stuff without containers requires a strong vendor login (aws lambda, google functions, azure function). Are you saying, I could do stateless without vendor-lockin and without containers and without kubernetes? This is news to me. Please point me to some resources

what does “get surprised on their own call” mean?

I’m no security expert and the sensible thing to do is using a library instead of taking a class.

Counterpoint: “not knowing your libraries” + “blind trust in the maintainer” will give you stuff like this: https://bitbucket.org/snakeyaml/snakeyaml/issues/561/cve-2022-1471-vulnerability-in

(the thread itself is worth a read. But also very impressive is the list of big players who fell for exactly this mentality)

trend to hate on PHP

2 years ago I tried to give a drupal project the ci/cd makeover (i.e. containers, test-deployments, reproducable builds, etc)… that’s when my hate was freshly renewed.

At this point I think it’s ok to let a dead language die and move on to something else (anything else, really)
