For me I tried the youtube music, found that it was heel bent on playing me videos I didn't want to watch and immediately switched to Amazon prime. I'm sure you can avoid the music video aspect but I could be bothered figuring tha

And the problem there is shoe horning RPC requirements into a hypermedia transport. I feel we've made a big mistake following Google's micro service requirements for what should be a ubiquitous hypermedia back bone. It's bewi

So you can't have relationships without FB? I find that hard to believe, we were managing it fine without FB. There is no need to be "connected" with people on demand 24/7.

This. Using a free use license and then complaining that companies and people freely use is just completely moronic. And it's not stealing so stop with the hyperbolic nonsense.

At this stage it absolutely boggles my mind that anyone remotely tech savvy would have anything to do with Facebook. Just don't engage with their products, they are a thoroughly toxic company, boycott and encourage everyone you know to

TLDR, narcissists are not good to be around and are quite bad leaders. The hardest aspect of leadership is learning the appropriate techniques and behaviours. It's so often not the focus of your attention when working as an individual

This has resonated with me as I've recently been thinking about service interopt. There is a strong push in my org to go full rpc, which will probably win out for not bad reasons, but I sort of wish we had but in the necessary up front

I think app stores are likely more about the 30% cut. The policing just makes that easier to sell.

The team tech debt had never translated well to any stake holders be they management or product. Recently I've made the decision to frame all of this as reliability problems. My message is that if you want engineers to provide 24/

It's simply Conway's law more explicitly materialised. Essentially the organisation wants to hire more engineers because that makes it all go faster, right? But then you can't have all those engineers in one team so you creat

Well it's unlikely that has complete control over the supply chain and so it's corporations doing business with each other. They'll find a rapidly decreasing number of people willing to do business if they ride roughshod over

If you're working in a group think conformist organisation with a single mono repo like Goolge then gRPC certainly has some allure. But if I'd like to remain a little more decoupled it's not very good at all. REST is definite

Because all those questions are the easy ones. gRPC is not a magic bullet for the problems of state management. It'll have all the same issues RPC has had for the last 30 years in that it enforces no discipline where it counts, state m

Hiring talent is hard and risky, especially in an area that you are actually expert. The more risk option is the just acquire a company that's done it all for you. Of course that does leave the merging part. But on paper it looks fast

I've doggedly stuck to my desktop over all this time for many of the same reasons but also because the only time I've actually found a laptop useful is when travelling which I don't really do a lot of, maybe once or twice a y

Of course. It's patently obvious that the current education systems pander to interest groups that are not necessarily in the best interests of the recipients of said education. Educational policy is not exclusively for the benefit of

In a market economy you are free to not use their product. No one is forcing you to use Apple or Google or Microsoft or whomever. The problem is that there are political entities that can be manipulated to give unfair advantage and or effe

Pieter Hintjens, whom you are referring to, was actually not so much involved in the development of the core ZeroMQ library, though he certainly contributed. His main role was building a community and he did develop a high level C binding c

Well if we are making acting in your own best interests defined as greed, which is all that corporations are doing, then I think it's a fine generalised definition to say protecting your own control is greedy as well. Edit: for clarity
830.
by Guthur 6y ago
Greed is not the problem, and trying to avoid it is going to frankly impossible and would require a degree of control that honestly none of us should want. The problem is that the individual is not being greedy enough for their own control.

There are rules and rigours on the verification and classification of the authenticity of the various hadith. I.e. knowledge gained by systematic study. I'll not proclaim to be an expert by any means.

`Now consider the following: there is nothing particularly strong in Islam’s holy text against drinking alcohol, just a rather vague recommendation of avoidance of intoxication while facing the creator.` This is a constant misunderstanding

I'm wondering if we're giving up too much with the move away from clear text to binary, reminds me of systemd. Considering so much of the internet traffic is not text media was it necessary. I feel there is a slight possibility o

There is such an anti individualism these days that I find bonkers. It's as if people crave collectivism. There have been quite obviously individually remarkable people that stand head and shoulders above everyone else, and don't

Simple, F1 and nascar are both races. Rally is a time trial. Generally I think people find racing more exciting.

We do not live in a free market capitalist system, which is blatantly obvious from things like government bailouts of big banks during GFC and huge encroachment of government within areas such as healthcare. And so for better or worse we&#x

5GW sounds very much like the wars fought by various insurgent/paramilitary groups. My experience is from Northern Ireland. The IRA and other republican paramilitary groups would never defeat the British military but would rather make

The UK spun up a load of "nightingale" facilities in anticipation of flooding hospitals. They're still there and empty as far as I'm aware.
