In 2017, when shipping Node.js on App Engine, we debated running the "build" script by default with JustinBeckwith, MylesBorins and ofrobots.

I'm now convinced that the most impactful product advice I should give is simply: use your own product.

Google Cloud has created its official set of buildpacks to help customers containerize apps in popular languages. They already are used in production on App Engine and Cloud Functions, and supported by many other products. cloud.google.com/blog/products/containers-kubernetes/google-cloud-now-supports-buildpacks

315 km/h (196mph) in the TGV 🚄⚡⚡⚡ To all of you living in France, take a second to realize that it's definitely not in every country that trains go so fast. Bonus points for emitting 20x less CO2 per passenger than cars 🚗💨 Thanks SNCF. cc @DansLeTGV
