Episode 4 - Systems Programing Languages and Packaging

from Practical Operations Podcast Episode Feed Hosted by Breandan Dezendorf, Jack Neely, and Jarod Watkins

Where we discuss the relative merits of Perl, Python, Ruby, and Go. We also touch upon Rust and Swift. There are also discussions about code hygiene, notably in the preferred indentation: Jarod is a 2-space man, Jack prefers 4, and Breandan sits firmly in the tab-as-indent camp. There are mentions of Rust, Swift, Scala, Akka and the pitfalls of Java and the JVM. Finally, we discuss how to package languages and libraries for use on platforms we deploy software to - with a bonus conversation about Docker as a packaging format, relative done-ness and using it in production. Followup on Episode 3: Grafana 2.5 Timelion Elasticsearch Aggregations Editable Filters in Kibana 4.3 Links for Episode 4: Apple Open Sources Swift Apple Package Manager for Swift Go Object Handling App Container and the Open Container Project
