A lot of these are outright stolen from Edward O'Campo-Gooding's list of questions. I really like his list.

I'm having some trouble paring this down to a manageable list of questions -- I realistically want to know all of these things before starting to work at a company, but it's a lot to ask all at once. My current game plan is to pick 6 before an interview and ask those.

I'd love comments and suggestions about any of these.

I've found questions like "do you have smart people? Can I learn a lot at your company?" to be basically totally useless -- everybody will say "yeah, definitely!" and it's hard to learn anything from them. So I'm trying to make all of these questions pretty concrete -- if a team doesn't have an issue tracker, they don't have an issue tracker.

I'm also mostly not asking about principles, but the way things are -- not "do you think code review is important?", but "Does all code get reviewed?".

2015-01-29 Unofficial Relay FAQ

Compilation of questions and answers about Relay from React.js Conf.

Disclaimer: I work on Relay at Facebook. Relay is a complex system on which we're iterating aggressively. I'll do my best here to provide accurate, useful answers, but the details are subject to change. I may also be wrong. Feedback and additional questions are welcome.

What is Relay?

Relay is a new framework from Facebook that provides data-fetching functionality for React applications. It was announced at React.js Conf (January 2015).

When you cancel a Jenkins job

Unfinished draft; do not use until this notice is removed.

We were seeing some unexpected behavior in the processes that Jenkins launches when the Jenkins user clicks "cancel" on their job. Unexpected behaviors like:

• apparently stale lockfiles and pidfiles
• overlapping processes
• jobs apparently ending without performing cleanup tasks
• jobs continuing to run after being reported "aborted"

If you use Amazon AWS for nearly anything, then you are probably familiar with KMS, the Amazon Key Management Service.

KMS is a service which allows API-level access to cryptographic primitives without the expense and complexity of a full-fledged HSM or CloudHSM implementation. There are trade-offs in that the key material does reside on servers rather than tamper-proof devices, but these risks should be acceptable to a wide range of customers based on the care Amazon has put into the product. You should perform your own diligence on whether KMS is appropriate for your environment. If the security profile is not adequate, you should consider a stronger product such as CloudHSM or managing your own HSM solutions.

The goal here is to provide some introductory code on how to perform envelope encrypt a message using the AWS KMS API.

KMS allows you to encrypt messages of up to 4kb in size directly using the encrypt()/decrypt() API. To exceed these limitations, you must use a technique called "envelope encryptio
