Pun intended?

I'm afrayed it was :-)

Family court will be worse the longer you wait.

Stick it out might mean there’s never an end in sight.

the real question is what colour it should be

Typical HN comment. Always wanting to talk about the exact nature of the fissile material, the startup neutron source and even the colour of the reactor shield.

It is a rack not a shed.

TOML/YAML:

You could read a truncated TOML file and not realize it.

On YAML, not if you enforce the usage of document end markers (e.g. an optional feature one could require if their use case demanded it). Though that's rarely a concern for configuration file formats in my opinion. If your transport (or storage) layer is that unreliable you probably don't need a human readable format in the first place.

please don't.. provision once and snapshot, and deploy the snapshot

sure makes me glad all that (and so much more) happens in the first negative 10 minutes on any server I deploy.

If you are doing this after your server has launched you are doing it wrong.

that makes sense since my voice is my passport. [verify me]

Spinnaker is pretty focussed on deployments and as such has those operations as first class citizens (deploy, resize, manage traffic, destroy, etc)

Jenkins is also a first class stage type - it is the way we run the build and test side of our deployments
