Question about using Litestream - I have an app running, and now need to upgrade it to a newer version. Currently I build the new version in a different directory, stop the old app, copy/migrate the database from the old version to the

I love the Lua language, has all the nice to have data structures, no need to think about memory management, is straightforward (keep the whole thing in your head easily) and will go forever without changes. Just stick with v5.1. It’s so co

First time I recorded a demo was when it became too hard to return things to a known good state after every demo. In this case that meant multiple RAID arrays, 3 servers, an application with DB, and monitoring software. All so that I could

This is so great, absolutely love the wry inner monologue style: > There is little less interesting than another man's drug trip. Unfortunately, he's both Arden Vox and my boss, so I try my best to appear fascinated. Almost imm

Many of these ideas depend on knowing the user’s preferences, patterns, communications, events and health. This is where the opportunity lies for Apple - the phone and watch know so much about you, that Apple could focus on smartly assembli

Applesoft BASIC is just so darn readable . Youngsters have nothing comparable these days to learn the basics of expressing an algorithm without having to know a lot more. And if it ever became too slow, you could reimplement the slow part

The book this is from, David Ahl’s More BASIC Computer Games, was hugely influential on me when I was 12. After my parents sent me to bed I’d read it under the covers trying to imagine how the computer would behave at every step. Great time
