I really appreciate the iterative way it goes through the process. It's been a few years but this would have been a godsend at a previous company when we were trying to move to self-hosted email sending with all the proper security mea

It is absolutely wild to me that Discord put up with this at all - but it's not surprising that they would want to change this. It also makes me wonder if Discord could add permanent image hosting to their list of Nitro benefits. I do

I think it's the fact that War Thunder is less serious than hardcore sims that makes all the difference. The sort of person who is into a "real sim" and values the experience of reproducing the "real" experience is

The way I think about this kind of problem is to remember that tools built to deal with huge scaling problems are generally dealing with a very complex set of variables. The tool is going to be designed to let you choose between all of thos

I'll watch your efforts with enthusiasm! I think it's hard and I think commercializing it is particularly hard. I also think your framing is exactly correct - the shape of our social relationships is transforming quickly, but our

I recommend you check out An Immense world by Ed Yong - many senses are arguably 'touch tuned for something'. Though taste and smell and vision are not.

It's particularly interesting because I feel like Google's biggest competition is Samsung, who now say they support phones for 4 major version updates after release. So if you had a Galaxy S20 instead you'd still be in suppor

Yes I have! I've dated someone even. Schizophrenia covers a pretty wide set of symptom sets but I would not call it flatly "life ruining" at all. Most people with the diagnosis have the potential to lead full, happy lives (th

It's not uniformly the case for all LA-area cities, but many of the densest urban areas in the US are in greater Los Angeles[1]. It's the 2nd most dense "metro area" in the US.[2] [1] https://en.wikipedia.org&

That makes a lot of sense! I guess I was imagining that a greenlet system would have a kind of 'light vm' by default, but you're absolutely right that the constraints of Erlang make that a LOT easier in their VM. I wasn'

I agree with you that those are normal things for a public transit agency. I felt like the core of the article was that NYC had ignored an established pattern (outlined in a report[1]) that suggests that, for this to work like they want, th

These kinds of metrics are brought up often and, while I think they are somewhat useful, the article makes it clear that they're not in line with the goal of these bans. The problem is not that it was too harmful to the climate to prod

Once you think about the tech I think there's an obvious steady state: - It's cheaper not to check on every call sever-side and the people who are most likely to dodge in this way are also not likely potential sources of revenue.

I think the point of the reports in that I linked is that we don't avoid climate change by following that time frame. Instead, we'd spend 100-300% of GDP on avoiding old projections, while moving forward into more poorly understoo
