As a warning for any who choose to hack on this, cloudflare gets a bit upset if you query too often, resulting in a period of sadness. It's probably a good sign I should be doing unit testing.

In addition to creating a website for this, you really should submit it to the IETF as an RFC. Get more engineers looking at it and improving it. If it ends up getting enough backing, we might even have a new standard.

I'm sure there's plenty of awesomeness to be found in these lists, but I almost gave up after seeing the node.js platform as the first "programming language" link on the first list.

CEO. Any C-level title, really. To me those titles imply a lot more structure than 3-5 employees who got enough venture capital to sustain business for about a year. Maybe I'm crazy, though.

Ha. Good point. This was done at work, where we use MS Server's DNS. <strike>I'm not sure if this is an artifact of our longer TTL, if MS is updating MS server DNS entries, or something else. Either way, at some point in tim

If you own a domain name, a lot of registrars let you query some https endpoint to update DNS, which you can plug into firmware like DD-WRT. Namecheap, for one, does. I know this because I did it this morning after no-ip stopped working fo

I wouldn't mind performing GET /vehicle/{id}/honks?since={time}&limit=1000 to see an indicator of how aggressively my car has been driven. Especially if somebody else is driving it.

I don't know the whole state of the vehicle. I don't want to. So I'll use PATCH. I know I want the horn to be in a honking state and remain in that state for 1 second. The implementation is responsible for doing what it needs

Haha the worst I've gotten is "Okay, S-T-U-W-A-R-T?". I suppose there has to be some downside to having some royal Scottish blood.

As I understand it, there's a lot of places overhead creeps in that tends to make this sort of thing vastly more efficient than making multiple calls. Sure you'll maybe send data people don't want this time, but it will proba
