Read the other comments. The video creator is literally adding artificial latency and then complaining about bad performance.

Why is verification bad? I think it’s actually the thing that prevents the worst forms of micro management. Micro management to me means telling people what to do in detail. That removes autonomy. The way to build trust and create autonomy

Why is it important to be able to build into portable binaries? Pyinfra doesn't require running Python on the machines you manage. Pyinfra basically turns your Python code into shell commands which it runs over SSH. So only your develo

Thanks for proving the whole point of this thread (No snark meant). People are indeed recreating parts of OTP in other languages because there are all kinds of reasons to pick a different language than Erlang/Elixer and still want some

Or that people find OTP/Erlang/Elixir hard to use. OTP has either a usability issue or a marketing issue

And yet people are reinventing parts of OTP in other languages and through tooling and infrastructure (e.g. Kubernetes). What does that tell you?

I was thinking about Litestar as well. Would be a good fit for this project. I hope the maintainers consider it.

Does linkding pull in your GitHub stars, Reddit saves etc? That’s what the parent wants to achieve. It seems linkding is just a regular bookmark tool.

This looks like a really neat project! The examples certainly feel less “script-like” than streamlit. One thing I find disappointing though, is that this framework is built on top of FastAPI. I feel it’s a bad idea to build on top of what’s

This article reinforces my knee-jerk dislike of philosophy. This article - like many works produced by philosophers - provides some contrarian ideas with zero evidence to back them up. I think it confuses causation and correlation by claimi

Agreed. Triggers always feel really clever and powerful, but they live outside your regular application code and are therefor more or less invisible. This will eventually break the law of least surprise. On top of that, triggers are hard to

I read this meme so often on HN, so I genuinely want to know: how do you organize work and get people to act on a common vision if there are no managers? I think people mistake “manager” as being people without tech skills. I think a tech c

Exactly this! Location-based pay is not so much about cost of living as it is about buying power. In the end, money is just a place holder for real value which comes in the form of goods and services. And the real value of the same amount o

But that is not an accident, is it? It’s someone very deliberately casting an object. It’s not the same and you probably know it.

You manage to present a strawman and produce a No True Scotsman fallacy all at once in this comment thread. Nobody is suggesting that Coq should be used, so stop bringing it up (strawman). And yes, Coq might have an even stricter and more e

You’re not reading my comments. Yes, more competent hires do a better job. But there is a limit to how much competence you can hire per person. That means there is a limit - or at least severe diminishing returns - to how much more competen
85.
by DandyDev 3y ago
Disagree. You’re assuming that the quality of hires is limitless. In practice it doesn’t work like that. Unless you have a good reason to want the next Einstein or even Jeff Dean, you can hire a more that good enough person with limited tim

by DandyDev 3y ago
I don’t understand what you’re trying to say. The comparison is simple: given that you want to hire a fixed number of people and you don’t want to lower the bar (hire based on merit), you can either not invest in DEI or spend extra time&#x2

by DandyDev 3y ago
It absolutely does not have to come at the cost of merit based hiring. When you want to focus on DEI in hiring, you can pick the following trade-offs: - Take more time finding suitable candidates - Invest money in external recruiters - Lowe

I read the “evidence”. Executives get bonuses based on hitting certain targets. Those targets now include DEI, IN ADDITION TO safety and quality which are still listed first. Furthermore, the evidence comes from a guy on Twitter who is prim

To have 37 different implementations to achieve this, might be a feature. To have 37 different protocols surely is not. There should preferably be one open protocol for proximity based wireless ad-hoc file sharing. This protocol can then be

It’s not so bizarre if you realize that bringing ACID semantics to files, lets you use the scalability of file/blob storage like S3 combined with DB-like access. Traditional RDBMSes just don’t scale so well as S3. But S3 didn’t have AC
