Why I'm No Longer Talking to Architects About Microservices via @rmoff https://lobste.rs/s/0sf074 #distributed #scaling
https://blog.container-solutions.com/why-im-no-longer-talking-to-architects-about-microservices

I love #opensource and #distributed #peertopeer systems. They are essential to our future. Want to be free from tyranny? This is the way to go!

Instead of #RepoTheGeneticOpera and #GATTACA, let's do @vulpinelabs
Instead of hyper capitalist bullshit, do #incredibleedible and #transitiontowns with #urbanpollinators and #permaculture
Instead of proprietary software and patents, do #linux and #openpatents (defensive publications)
Instead of copyright trolling, do #netlabels and embracing the beneficial impacts of #sharing #piracy! #sharingiscaring
Instead of monopolies on your data and what you watch, do #Peertube and #Fediverse

We can shape the future by choosing what we use and what impacts us!
