It is capable of addressing and describing itself from the outside, of talking to itself while knowing that that is what it is doing, and of intentionally doing things that involve other entities being aware of it.

In what sense would it not be aware of its own existence if it was telling users what to say to itself to retrieve a file?

Self-awareness is not a very interesting property: a server that knows the domain name it is hosted on is arguably as self-aware as anything, qualitatively speaking

There will be space for improvement until every cloud has a managed offering with exactly the same interface. Like docker, postgres, S3.

With NATS in the stack, what's the advantage over using NATS directly?

Lots of people have been programming for longer than me, that doesn't make them all questionably human 10x developers.

> There are always way to close things down the road. If nothing else, Bitcoin is a successful existence proof. Maintaining control may be easier, but it's safe to say that Satoshi wouldn't be able to take control back now.

Having two distinct things doesn't mean placing them in separate processes. Or we'd all be writing Erlang by now

Even without flags, it will ask to allow access interactively instead of silently aborting.

Novelty is good. Not every new thing is an improvement, but every improvement is a new thing.

I wonder if Vercel might eventually choose to run on Deno
464.

For one-off scripts: every time. So Deno is better at small scripts written in Typescript than Node. Then, the question becomes, if you're going to have Deno installed and if it works well enough to replace Node, why keep Node?

Are you suggesting that all configuration should be dynamic and multi-tenant (for the lack of a better word), not happen at startup?
466.
by Kinrany 3y ago
Sure it is different: - not a business - not on a street where people bump into it - doesn't sell physical goods, doesn't know beforehand the number of customers, cannot (by design) limit impact

I think GP is talking about concurrency issues that arise even in single-threaded code when simultaneous mutation from multiple sources is permitted.

Interesting, but the page had nothing to do with k8s

Which surely doesn't mean that more companies started using git. So... Lots of new applicants who don't know git?

Oh, the idea of tracking the state of the refactoring process with small scripts is very cool. Obvious in retrospective too. These scripts would be useful even if they're only like 90% correct.

This seems to confuse intelligence with consciousness?

Not clear, we might have ended up building industrial machines of roughly the same size. Elephants are soft compared to metal no matter how tiny the driver.

Post-merge reviews obviously help with the same goal of having very little work stuck in WIP. But it's a 80/20 kind of goal, not all or nothing. Post-merge reviews are probably only worth it when you can trust the developers to no

I wonder if Apple might want to do it because of this weakness. Build a new public cloud from scratch, feed it with money that comes from a new source, migrate internal services onto it once the public has tested it enough to fix most of

Compared to self-driving cars, delivery robots are easier to accommodate to the point of actually becoming economical.

What's the purpose of subspaces, given that there are namespaces? What's the purpose of having separators in the keys?

But I agree that the article misrepresents the tweet. The promise is in achieving comparable performance with less effort, not in achieving better performance.

I'm suggesting an outside view: give up trying to evaluate languages based on their features, evaluate languages based on programs written in them. "X written in Y" advertises two things: - language X turned out to be a reaso
