Stevey's Google Platforms Rant

I was at Amazon for about six and a half years, and now I've been at Google for that long. One thing that struck me immediately about the two companies -- an impression that has been reinforced almost daily -- is that Amazon does everything wrong, and Google does everything right. Sure, it's a sweeping generalization, but a surprisingly accurate one. It's pretty crazy. There are probably a hundred or even two hundred different ways you can compare the two companies, and Google is superior in all but three of them, if I recall correctly. I actually did a spreadsheet at one point but Legal wouldn't let me show it to anyone, even though recruiting loved it.

I mean, just to give you a very brief taste: Amazon's recruiting process is fundamentally flawed by having teams hire for themselves, so their hiring bar is incredibly inconsistent across teams, despite various efforts they've made to level it out. And their operations are a mess; they don't real

This is a little trick I use to spin up the packages instalation on Debian/Ubuntu boxes in Vagrant.

I add a simple function that checks if a directory named something similar to ~/.vagrant.d/cache/apt/opscode-ubuntu-12.04/partial (it may have another path in Windows or MacOS) and create the directory if it doesn't already exist.

def local_cache(basebox_name)
  cache_dir = Vagrant::Environment.new.home_path.join('cache', 'apt', basebox_name)
  partial_dir = cache_dir.join('partial')
  partial_dir.mkdir unless partial_dir.exist?

Rectifier

The diode bridge is the simplest rectifier I know.

Rectifier lets you share a directory with a docker container (just like $yourvm shared folders).

You don't have to install anything in your containers, and you only need to install diod in the host. diod is packaged on Ubuntu/Debian distros, and will automatically be apt-get install-ed if needed.

Since it uses diod to make a bridge, I called it rectifier. Yeah, that sucks, so if you have a better name, I'll steal it!

# Due to a bug in Go, you can't `go get` a private Bitbucket repository
# (issue #5375, linked below). This means you can't `go get ./...` ANY project
# that might depend on a private Bitbucket repository.
#
# This script works around it by detecting Bitbucket imports and using
# `git` directly to clone into it. This will not work if you use private
# Mercurial repositories on Bitbucket.
