That's what I meant, yeah. My experience is Google tailors results aggressively , and does so using a wide number of fingerprinting techniques. I've demonstrated to my own satisfaction that using an incognito window will not gi

No, that's our experience too. We're excited by the changes, eager for each new release, and enjoy being able to write solid code without the language getting in the way (much). When 8.0 drops we'll probably have cake. ...the

Well, yes? He wasn't writing about how to build web APIs. He makes no mention of HTTP verbs, and nothing about REST requires such verbs to even exist in the underlying protocol. He was discussing, at a high level, how you might design

As noted in the linked article, arguably the most notable implementation of his ideas was the HTTP spec. He wasn't suggesting people build APIs ; he was suggesting people build websites .

I feel you. I'm currently at a startup that, somewhat by accident, ended up writing their backend in PHP. Modern PHP is actually fine; it's largely avoided the issues perl has; adoption of the latest versions is quite high, and it

I do not. Google search results, I find, are extremely inconsistent.

"Realistic"? Shorting a stock is not a pure mathematical bet that a stock will, in the fullness of time, be viewed as overvalued, it's a concrete bet about prices in the near term. :) Plenty of people called the 90s dot com b

On desktop I either use the old.reddit.com link, or I use the Reddit Enhancement Suite browser addon that forces the same look. If that UI ever goes away, I'll honestly stop using Reddit; the new UI is aggressively horrible. Similarly,

The headline is accurate, but perhaps a bit misleading. A synopsis: The Minneapolis Police Department has had a long string of scandals, and gradual reform doesn't seem to be working. A majority of the city council seem to have decided

If you were capable of replacing your use of rabbitmq with 3 lines of python and a redis instance, you shouldn't have been using rabbitmq to start with. That doesn't mean redis is a drop in replacement for any of the valid uses

For modded minecraft, you're looking at finding a good modpack. Modpacks are often built around a handful of mods (sometimes even a single mod can define the feel of a pack), but will invariably contains dozens or hundreds of mods. Jus

My point isn't that they're equivalent (they're not), but that the analysis never stops at "this will save lives, so we should do it". There's always more layers, such as here your very valid analysis of whethe

They undoubtedly do cost lives but: 1) You're looking at net lives, and there's no particular reason to think we're net negative yet . Let's imagine a brief lockdown to avoid overwhelming the emergency rooms with people

Some good points, although I'd toss another thought into the mix. The confinements and shutdowns and shelter in place orders also cost lives. We know that recessions cost lives. One study (published in The Lancet, so worth taking a s

Redis is a flexible tool. Some things you could potentially do: - This DB query is pretty slow. Cache the result in Redis. - I'm using server-side sessions, but I have multiple servers. Where should I store session data where it'l

That's certainly an interpretation. From my point of view, by doing the wrong thing initially, and then (especially) by persisting in it for so long, they've just turned a disaster into a bigger disaster. I haven't walked aw

The PE firms who bought Toys "R" Us put up $1.3b of their own money to do it. After they bought it, they did, yes, extract some handsome returns in fees and salaries; by the time Toys "R" US went under in 2018, it paid i

So, the author claims that PE is a scam where PE firms profit at the expense of lenders. If this was true, you could easily check to see how well lenders have done, on average, lending to PE firms. The author has not done this. You could al
