How would you even define “most fertile grassland”? What does “fertile” mean - soil nutrients, water availability, or productivity for a specific crop? And what counts as “grassland”? Are you talking about a 1 acre parcel, something for sal

This is slightly off-topic, but is it "jail" or "prison"? I see this switch all the time, and French does not make a difference. But, in English, and many other languages, jail is more specific than prison, and is usuall

I agree. RFCs have a niche use case, like a manual, or a glossary. They're there, if you need them, but few people are supposed to be implementing RFCs or internet from "blueprints" all the time.

What kind of API specifies that your number is int, uint, or bigint? According to a quick search, the formats for APIs are: JSON ~80%, XML ~15%, ~5% other.

I don't understand, what was the issue with changing the column type from `int` to `bigint`? What does exposing the IDs have to do with how large those ints can be? This seems like a backend issue, if we're talking about HTTP&#x2F

There was an article or interview with one of the lead AWS engineers, and he said they use CDs or DVDs for cold glacier.

The next ID can't be found just by adding 1, can it? How would you guess the next value?

What if you use a different AI model? Sometimes just a different seed generates a different result. I notice there is a benefit to seeing and contrasting the different answers. The improvement is gradual, it’s not a binary.

Razer Blade is my windows laptop. The hardware is great, MacBook nice, but it needs the chip efficiency.

In some sense, some releases are always better than the previous version. Of course, Apple developers do some valuable work. However, there are changes that are not "undeniably better". I don't think every Sonoma feature was

It's not really hysterical to want to jump a ship that feels like is turning into a clown cruise. I can use Windows, Linux, and OSX equally well for work, even if I deploy to AWS in the end. However, I love the osx aesthetic and MacBoo

Thanks for sharing! :)

Hmmmm, that sounds like it would work, but is also a bit concerning :) I’d rather not have some mystery bugs, and considering all the open issues in GitHub…

Any thoughts on the Tanstack libraries? We use their query library, and ironically, it reminds me of ext.js tiny bit, but it's been pretty consistent.

Maybe this is a good place to ask... but I was actually considering Next.js as a replacement for Gatsby.js project that is a few years old, but is growing at a steady pace. Given all the negative sentiments, what are better alternatives? I

Yeah, I do confuse it, because I've been using Hetzner long before they had "cloud".

Overall, I agree that most people underestimate the runway that the modern dedicated server can give you.

by Demiurge 1y ago
I think it’s the other way around. I’m a huge fan of Hetzner for small sites with a few users. However, for bigger projects, the cloud seems to offer a complete lack of constraints. For projects that can pay for my time, $200/m or $200

Thats crazy to me. It takes am an hour to apply to one job, including finding some kind of a match, and some jobs are disproportionally harder due to weird questions.

50 job applications in a few hours?

by Demiurge 1y ago
Nice advice. How long did the process take? How many hours a day did you spend doing all this? You say, pace yourself, send a few hours, does that mean it took you months to find and apply to 450 jobs? Did you read company reviews on Glassd

Sometimes it's obvious, but in this case, why are you downmodding my comment? I'm genuinely curious, what am I saying, that is so offensive or wrong?

I've actually seem really good outputs from the regular Grok 4. The issue seemed to be that it didn't explain anything and just made some changes, which like, I said, were pretty good. I never wanted a faster version, I just wante

Yeah, I think it's great that there are ARD formats and you can access bytes via low level s3 like protocol. This enables interesting tools like DuckDB which can abstract away some stuff, and be fastish and "serverless". Howe

I don't know a single person who would agree with that, including both python and rust enthusiasts.
