Using the game theory, shouldn’t the nice, forgiving and not being a pushover the winning strategy?

I’ve always felt the US won trust and respect with these characteristics. It looks like we are now shifting strategy and I wonder where this will lead to.


The US seems in practice to be doing more of a bomb the bad guys strategy. I guess that could work? It's a bit random - Trump's instinct seems to include attacking Canada and Denmark but he doesn't get buy in for those thankfully.

The first time I truly enjoyed web development was when I got the hang of jQuery. Made everything so much simple and usable!


jQuery made a messy ecosystem slightly less fragmented. Combined with CKEditor it effectively tamed a lot of web-developer chaos until nodejs dropped. =3


I doubt this will clear the government/regulatory approvals as it seems clearly monopolistic. But these days anything can happen and I might end up being surprised. Netflix stock seems stable in-spite of this news.


Probably referring to the founder of pipedream


Unmeshed.io is a newer startup in the space - and works like a charm. Temporal seems like more targeting durable executions, but scheduling a different game. It starts with crons but soon you got to deal with holidays, adhoc skips and holds and more especially during maintenance and upgrades.

Unmeshed has all of these, managing holiday calendars etc and makes it super easy. It even has agents for AS400 server commands if that is still a thing you need.


This reminds me of Dwight from the office in the episode where he doesn’t tip the delivery driver and says: I never tip for anything I can do myself. I can deliver this if I want to.


He also notes that he does tip the guy who pulverizes his kidney stones.


I’m not sure there is much risk in vendor lock in. Look at Temporal. If you use the SDK you are probably locked in for life.


Unmeshed - it’s not open source. It’s a new version of Netflix Conductor. Scales really well and has a GitHub actions style agent that can be used to run commands orchestrated by the platform. It’s probably the cheapest commercial tool you can get.


I thought what you are seeing is personalized for you.


It’s sarcasm.


I think Sateeshm was also applying a generous layer of sarcasm.
