Yeah, looks very similar. I will be interested to see how quickly containers can be provisioned on FarGate.

Maybe I was doing something wrong, but my experience so far with ACI is that it consistently took about three to four minutes until a smallish container was ready for use.


What image were you running? Our internal monitoring indicates that it is generally significantly faster than that, but image pull is almost always the long pole for container startup time.


That seems reasonable, but the new name is already in wide use in software/hardware. Even outside, its dictionary definition is "a defect or malfunction in a machine or plan".

That seems like an odd choice, though the blog seems to suggest it's because everyone will be fixing each other's bugs.


Well, Stack Overflow, probably felt like an odd choice at the time too.

Unfortunately, you're still not allowed to use Google Cloud Platform for personal usage if you're based in Europe.

Several years ago they emailed (presumably) everyone without a tax number in their account, saying so: https://support.google.com/cloud/answer/6090602

Trying to add a billing account just now from a European country doesn't give the choice of account type; it's fixed to "business" and can't be edited.

So without a billing account, it seems nobody in Europe can use the free tier for personal use.


And they say it's been more than thirty years since the Berlin Wall came down…


0.1% of 28 days is 40 minutes, so it seems likely to happen.


I was calculating it for a year - maybe the availability applies to per billing cycle - you may be correct..


Quite a few projects have issue trackers hosted on that hostname: https://bugs.chromium.org/hosting/

I believe those projects switched to using this instance of the Monorail bug tracker since Google Code shut down.


All of those projects are related to Chrome/Chromium, and maybe P0 is a part of the same team, all under @laparisa? http://www.googblogs.com/why-attend-usenix-enigma-2/ here you can see her introducing Ben Hawkes.


I don't think that they're all related. Gerrit, for example, isn't part of Chrome; it was initially developed for Android, AFAIK. Nor is Monorail. I think Breakpad even predates Chrome.

But it's quite likely they all had their bug trackers on Google Code.


Do the Docker containers that builds run in still provide root access to the Docker socket, allowing people to break out of the container?


You have passwordless sudo access on the Docker containers, however when you kick off a new build we will create a new VM just for the build and start the docker container inside it, making sure that nobody can ramble around :)


Thanks. Is this setup with the per-build VM and Docker server access intended so that users could set up multiple linked containers for integration testing, etc.?


Yup, we wanted to give you full access during the build, to achieve whatever you would like to do.

While this is a good recommendation, I'm not sure this is possible with AMP, as they don't provide versioned URLs; the JS loaded keeps changing over time.

Edit: Indeed, this was rejected: https://github.com/ampproject/amphtml/issues/534


Interesting to read there (and nowhere else that I could find) that GitHub co-founder Scott Chacon left the company this year.
