Officials have been going on about how this is the fastest vaccine ever produced and distributed. Then they backpedal slightly on that when the populace verbalizes legitimate concern that it was too fast to guarantee safety. Meanwhile, peop

This is excellent; hopefully we get native Rust support on Lambda soon maybe? :)

Yes; and from what I've seen in Apple's support documentation, you can install linux on the new M1 machines. I think the broader point is that the support isn't very good. Its not specifically disallowed by Apple or Microsoft

I think there's an angle to the plausible deniability that many people are missing. Email servers get hacked all the time, right? A disgusting amount. Its almost like security is really difficult; in fact, its difficult to secure both

Impossible to know until we get the hard numbers. But, just looking at A14 performance and extrapolating its big/little 2/4 cores to M1's 4/4; In the shortest tldr possible; Yes. M1 should have stronger single-core CPU p

M1 has 16MB of L2 cache; 12MB dedicated to the HP cores and 4MB dedicated to the LP cores. Another important consideration is the on-SOC DRAM. This is really incomparable to anything else on the market, x86 or ARM, so its hard to say how th

My guess is that they'd still keep the efficiency cores around, but provide more performance cores. So likely a 12 or 16 core processor, with 4 or 6 of those dedicated to efficiency cores. The M1 supposedly has a 10w TDP (at least in t

If you believe that, then you've either been accidentally ignoring Apple's chip R&D over the past three years, or intentionally spinning it against them out of some more general dislike of the company. The most powerful Macboo

That's not what they said during the keynote. They said the Macbook Air (specifically) is "3x faster than the best selling PC laptop in its class" and that its "faster than 98% of PC laptops sold in the last year".

The other option is: Pick any of the above licenses and don't tie your entire financial identity to this thing. I think its a legitimately weird thing specific to software where people release something interesting as open source and f

I think any timebox-based batching strategy would effectively just trade frontend performance for backend performance. Your backend would have to deal with fewer requests, and there's always a number of "things" the backend n

No, its still an issue. If you have QueryA which requests User { firstName } and QueryB which requests User { lastName }, those queries both have to request their data in order for both fields to be cached. If, instead, you have QueryC whic

We have a `user` GraphQL type. It has 200+ fields and resolvers into other data. Fortunately, clients don't need to pull everything. Well, within one of our frontend apps, someone wrote a "GetUser" query fragment, wrapped it

Right, and that's my biggest fear. The process side of this industry is in a really scary spot right now. TSMC is killing it. Nvidia is using Samsung to fab the RTX 3xxx chips, and there's some rumblings that low yields are a reas

"Indefinitely" does not mean "forever"; it means "the end is not defined". The end could be tomorrow, or in a thousand years; its just unknown and not communicated at this time. This is a similar misconception
