True :) My main motivation was to at least realistically move us into a right (simpler) direction - from currently still popular microservices architectures deployed to multi-machine Kubernetes clusters to handle, on average, 5 req/s

How many queries do you usually handle? Why a few? One doesn't suffice? What resources do they have?

What stands out for me, is that it was all possible thanks to the fact that the AI operator/conversationalist had enough knowledge to, more or less write, it all by hand, if he chose to. Probably it was said many times already, but it

Was exactly about to point that out - if you mostly have integration (aka in-between tests) tests, you rarely need to refactor your tests. It's about testing mostly at the right abstraction level: https://binaryigor.com&#x2F

Don't most of the benefits just come down to using a statically typed and thus compiled language? Be it Java, Go or C++; TypeScript is trickier, because it compiles to JavaScript and inherits some issues, but it's still fine. I kn

100%; customization maintenance burden is underrated - it simply costs a lot of time and energy to customize things; often there are better uses of this time, especially in the business context

Same for me; love it for learning, researching and debating things - programming and software design included :)

I always wonder, why not anything similar made it into a new (some) C version? Clearly, there is a significant demand for - lots of people reimplementing the same (similar) set of patterns.

Interesting; I would probably kindly disagree, but will definitely read some of his stuff to possible rectify my views :)

Interesting, but lots of luddite vibes. I am AI-skeptic myself, but it cannot be denied that it is a very useful tool and many tasks - probably jobs as well, it's not the same - will be replaced by it. Current uncertain climate is unpl

They cannot solve all problems but thank God we have Progressive Web Apps; long-term, I guess there needs to Android-like alternative

Interesting - what would be the main use-cases? Mesh networks? Something else?

Exactly; another great tool for the power user; but, there is no shortcuts to become a power user - one must put the effort

Besides mentioned by others walks and sleep I found meditation to be really helpful; you often can get the benefits, ideas-generation-wise, of a full-night sleep doing solid 30-minute session. There are other benefits of meditating too :)

Unfortunately, you're right; I guess there is no easy, handle-it-all answer; it all depends on the specifics of a given system

Depends whether and to what extend your service provider needs it - for Proton, it's always client only decrypted

Interesting, was thinking about quick and dirty solution of this kind to temporarily make something running on my laptop publicly available for tests/dev purposes ;) How does it work under the hood? Can I share special private key&#x2F

There are inherent tradeoffs when using centralized solutions like that; unless the company does not use any third-party software and is paranoid about its security - these incidents and breaches will occur, unfortunately.

Well, to some degree it will always happen, no matter how careful the companies are. Unless it's e2e encrypted (like in Proton Mail or Proton Drive), these incidents will occur. Manage your risk accordingly.

I still struggle to see what exact problems Decentralized Identifiers solve and how exactly they would make the Internet better. Ommiting additional complexity they bring - where to store them, how to control them etc. - what new use cases

Do you have any examples how to add external dependencies? It's a problem that almost every C/C++ project solves differently, unfortunately.

Really rare to find a company with such a bad luck, judgement and the cascade of bad decisions; it's strange that after all of that, they're still hanging in there

Interesting; I was thinking about creating something like that a few years ago - since I love listening to information a lot while doing some chores/walking - but back then, all available text-to-speech converters were unbearably robot

Interesting to see that after having (no longer so basic) support for JSON documents we will right now have graphs in SQL databases as well. Although there probably are less use cases for graphs that there are for non or semi-structured dat
