Day 2 "Express Gratitude"

Oct 3, 2014

(1) About 11 years ago, I read in "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance":

"Flight from and hatred of technology is self-defeating. The Buddha, the Godhead, resides quite as comfortably in the circuits of a digital computer or the gears of a cycle transmission as he does at the top of a mountain or in the petals of a flower. To think otherwise is to demean the Buddha--which is to demean oneself."

(2) Having read Poincare's revelation/confession that when a mathematician gets lost, not knowing how to move from Point A to Point B, s/he can rely on certain thing.

(3) Open source communities for being so generous

Characteristic of a Good Software Framework

Code in the Cloud: Programming Google AppEngine by Mark C. Chu-Carroll

These basic ideas make up the heart of Google App Engine. There's not that much to it. But that 's sort of the point to it... There's just this modest set of concepts and libraries built around them --- and that's it. But this simple framework turns out to be a remarkable and elegant tool for building your own cloud applications.

CloudBees as described by the official site:

The CloudBees Platform as a Service (PaaS) architecture provides a powerful foundation for cloud development and deployment services.

CloudBees as discussed in Linux for You

No special framework is needed for application deployment ...

Compare that with Mongrel, Passenger, Capistrano thingies.

Will making things tough, complex, tricky for others enrich me somehow?
