Congratulations on the launch! This sounds awesome! Sounds like it could be very useful for taking some out of the complexity of orchestrating the various serverless components. I am very curious, and looking forward to trying it out!

It’s pretty common to not show ‘Enterprise’ level pricing to the public. It’s all going to be different depending on the customer. For everyone one else, it’s free, awesome! What are you expecting to see?

Oh you’re right! My brain just immediately assumed that, asking me to register an account. Bit of a dark pattern though, I didn’t take the time to read it. Reader mode is still awesome, I recommend it!

It’s a somewhat angry & rambling rant, but without picking it apart too hard, one sentence really resonated with me. I would summarize the thesis in this sentence -> ”I want a computer that does what I want it to do, not one that ha

I appreciate you disclosing your experience in the ad-tech industry. But I’m not sure I understand your point. It sounds like from your experience, the concept of FLoC from the main article is exactly where Google and other want to be? They

The question of “How appealing is the old internet to modern modern internet users?” certainly is a totally different question. And one completely unrelated the the topic of the article. Which is the difference between 3rd party tracking co

Sorry I don’t follow, is the e-word ‘evolution’? :) Yeah I found a picture of the Africans question. This might be the worst one. I see why folks would take it the wrong way. They are potbellied, dressed in ‘tribal’ garb. Stereotypical I su

I don’t understand the line of logic here. What does nostalgia for the internet of twenty years ago have anything to do with the way big advertising takes advantage of us now? They use underhanded, arguably immoral, technological tricks t

I haven’t seen these books since I was a kid. Does anyone know of, or where I can find the specific examples from each book, and what people find offensive? I’m really curious to the specifics here. On this same topic, I recently rewatched

Sure. I’m not an expert or anything, but the term ‘neurogenesis’ would be what you want. I guess the fact that many neurons are formed in the womb, and last our whole lives still holds true, but the realization that at least some parts of t

Great article, as usual from Nautilus! I would like to add one more myth the list. The idea that we all have a finite amount of brains cells. They used to teach that we’re all born with a certain amount of brain cells, and over time from ag

Haha, ok in general you’re right. Maybe a poor choice of words. But also, in general, I believe we have vastly underestimated the intelligence of most other animals. Even ones that are demonstrably not that smart.

I agree with the main thesis of the article, stated in the first paragraph. That idea of ”how important it is for us humans to not underestimate animal intelligence” . I think folks in modern times are less & less prone to thinking ani

I mean, I'd be mad like that person too if I thought I was about to get a cool domain like that. It would have definitely been a fun one to own :) I get it, but in their anger, I don't think they are thinking clearly, and then tak

When they identify a valuable domain, they make money off it by giving it the 'Premium' tag, and collecting a substantial one time fee up front. If this 'practice' of stealing domains were real, wouldn't it be somew

It really is a great illustration of how dumb people can be in mobs. Now there is a hoard of redditors running around screaming at the top of their lungs, "Did you see the evil Namecheap stole that domain from that guy". Meanwhi

Quite a coincidence indeed, but that doesn't prove anything. Important to note, to corroborate their claim, the poster tries to say Namecheap 'owns' the domain because they see namecheap.com in the Registrar URL line of the D

People have been claiming this forever about various domain registrars, and I just don't buy it. I think people play a logical trick on themselves, or succumb to paranoia, or similar. They are in the business of selling domains. That m

Ok, I see the other thread on this now. Sounds like it’s hosted on Cloudflare? That is somewhat concerning, considering they say they are on the business tier.

Is https://deno.land seriously getting the ‘hug of death’?! I’m seeing some very odd behavior. I’ve gone from getting an SSL error, to stuck in loading ‘forever’, to sometimes it loads. Anyone else experiencing this?
