I have been working with Puppet and Ansible. The reason why I prefer ansible is the distribution of it. Ansible is more lightweight and therefore more popular. This leads to situations, where you can get fully packaged applications for ansible (e.g. confluent) supported by the vendor, but only incomplete packages for Puppet.

The only advantage I would see with Puppet if someone wants to use Foreman. This is still better supported with Puppet.

Mesos-Enthuasiast may criticise me for my statement, but Kubernetes has simply won the race. Most companies I work with have a Kubernetes strategy. With that backing the platform will continue to grow whereas Mesos will become a niche.

I explored many Git Desktop tools for the Mac and my final decision was to use Fork. What I love about for that it contains three features, I like about a Git Client tool.

It allows

• to handle day to day git operations (least important for me as I am cli junkie)
• it helps to investigate the history
• most important of all, it has a repo manager which many other tools are missing.

I loved Slack. We used it for discussion. But somehow, it was always difficult to get things done. HeySpace is what replaced Slack and Trello as it combines the functionality of both tools.

So, now we keep on discussing as we did on slack, but once we to a point where we want to do something, we create tasks on a board and distribute them.
