It's a fully fledged programming language. An open-source programming language, at that, with a lot of community input and involvement. Not a macOS or iOS app creation DSL. It's also quite pleasant to use, and has already seen a f

I think the parent only means that if Intel somehow shut down, decided to radically pivot or to close everything, because it is somewhat open, you still had alternatives and neither your code, your product, or your company would face insurm

It's more like... why would they support other platforms? They're moving to services now, but they've always mostly been a hardware shop. The software was "just" a "feature".

Their console is a pain, and some of other aspects too. Remember getting an error because a document was getting updated too fast (four or five times in less than a second). Heck, their own documentation states a document can only be update

Perhaps you should look into Forest Admin? (for the GUI) They have a free open-source tool. Never got to use it because I'm mainly running on DynamoDB, but heard lots of good things about it

Regarding the configuration and failure modes, I think something like CDK could be a great way to set all this up in a more familiar and readable way https://aws.amazon.com/cdk/

Really depends. Don't know about other countries, but French private pilotes (PPL) aren't allowed to fly commercially . Yet, they can and often do split the cost of the flight (fuel) with their passengers, and that is considered

I am definitely in favor of looking for diversified opinions, from people with diverse backgrounds, some of them specialized in the field. Diverse inputs are way more interesting than those of a single group of people with similar or hom

Model Thinking, from coursera. A funny coincidence; last week I reached the... SIS epidemiology model! Rarely so relevant. It's quite interesting. Two of the things that fascinated me most so far are emergent properties (such as in ce

It's only a lifestyle business if they aren't interested in hyper-growth & all Otherwise, "just" spending less than you make and trying to make it on their own only makes them bootstrapped, don't you think?

No, lucky me. Either I'm doing mobile and don't care wether it's an actual server behind those APIs or a hamster going crazy in it's wheel. Or I'm doing backend, in which case I only do serverless. One colleague of

Without even getting into the whole crappy world of SS2Is and "ESNs", a lot of the actual software contractor work in France could also be requalified as employement. Most often, clients pick your hours, where you can work, as

Except that neither the customer (the user) nor the provider (the driver) defines the price. The middle-man (Uber) does. The middle-man decides what tools (car models) the provider may use to do it's work. The middle-man unilateraly se

Wouldn't it work via a VM? Aside from that, Aperture was abandoned 5 years ago. I would blame Apple for not releasing a 64-bit version of it before dropping it, but not for dropping 32-bit altogether.

That's pretty much how event sourcing deals with deletion. I wasn't even worrying about the legality of it. Simply that you end up lugging those messages around on your devices. And better be careful about what you post, because t

Sure. But where do the blobs "come from" when they "come back". Since it's fully P2P, someone has to keep them around. As for text not taking up a ton of space. Sure. Except it's text with it's metadata,
