I was lucky to inherit a Zenit camera with a macro lens. I have been shooting with it for ~10 years now and am still mesmerized by the photos it creates. My old Flickr page has a couple of examples: https://flickr.com/photos/manastasov/4985941953/

Co-author here. Working on a CI/CD platform and seeing how real teams actually build their apps, I can tell you that the majority are still not using containers.

It ain't easy. It changes the entire build/test/deploy process. But it is the best way to build for the cloud.

So we wrote this book for developers who need to get things done. Hopefully it's a good mix of required fundamentals for a practical reader, and realistic examples.

I'd love to hear your feedback, and any particular questions or struggles you've had while transitioning to containers.

We're hosting an open global Zoom call for all engineers affected by the outage, join us at https://zoom.us/j/793450725


One click on this link and it instantly starts streaming your webcam footage to everyone in the chat room.


This is weird, I had Zoom installed a long time ago but uninstalled according to their instructions [1]. I'm a macOS user.

As soon as I clicked that link, the client downloaded a PKG file, installed itself and launched itself without asking me if I wanted to share my camera or audio.

I uninstalled according to their instructions again, searched for all "zoom" files in my disk and rebooted.

This leads me to believe that following their uninstall instructions is insufficient, and there are hidden files left on my computer.

Sorry in advance for the off topic message

Don't be sorry, same thing happened to me just now and I'm trying to figure out how they are installing locally from a URL click with no further input from me.

edit: Found this thread with details but no resolution it seems: https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/358651/unable-to-c...


I think I found out: there's a daemon process that I somehow missed the first time around.

Deleting the .app file as instructed is not enough.

This StackExchange reply [1] showed me how to solve it, at least on macOS.

Do you have auto-run enabled for downloaded files?


Nope. Not even for safe (image, music, etc) files.

And even if I had, PKG files don't install themselves on macOS, they open the installer interface, AFAIK.

EDIT: And, as I mentioned, the file was downloaded by some Zoom client, not by my browser.


This is a local zoom setting, you can change it.


Use 'Turn off my video when joining meeting' in Zoom.


Put some clothes on.


Why? Do you expect to be able to do something about it or did you just want somewhere classier than Twitter to complain?


Semaphore 2.0 offers 1,300 minutes (disclaimer: I'm a cofounder, so you can also AMA).


Here's a lengthy interview with John Arundel, an author of the book: https://semaphoreci.com/blog/2019/02/14/a-reality-check-abou... You can get a lot from it without giving away any of your personal or fake information. :)


Thanks for mentioning Semaphore, cofounder here. Yes, we’re 100% bootstrapped and in this for the long haul. It’s really all about execution. We built 2.0 in a timeframe in which we’d previously ship one or two features. Of course years of domain experience help, but everyone from Fred Brooks to DHH is right — adding more people won’t help build a better product faster.


I love Semaphore. I remember getting a handwritten personal note and an informal invitation to visit in Novi Sad a few years ago. While that doesn’t say anything about the “tech” it does show that they are real people that care deeply about users — even fairly insignificant ones like me. That it’s a bootstrapped company with a really great product made me happy as well.


I wouldn't mind trying out Semaphore for some open source projects. On the community open source page [1], from what I understand, you offer a free service, but the pricing page [2] says that it's not free yet?

[1]: https://semaphoreci.com/community/open-source

[2]: https://semaphoreci.com/pricing


If you don't mind logs and project pages not being publicly visible, you can start using the Semaphore 2.0 free tier with your open source project. If you run out of credits send a support request and we'll increase.

That community page is outdated and referring to Semaphore Classic (1.0) and 2.0 will be getting proper open source support soon.
