It sounds like it's a business that has run out of its own money at exactly the wrong time. There's no customer deposits on this exchange in terms of crypto accoording to their FAQ so this is a case of "startup runs out of mo

I wonder if anyone who wants to bring back the monolith has ever worked on a true large monolithic codebase? Not something that's like 5-10k lines of code excluding frameworks, but monsters that are 100k+. Where test suites take an hou

So then he'll be doing what he said he didn't want to happen, just now to the people he doesn't like?

Ah yes, the shadowy, nebulous "they" that are suppressing the "real truth". Not surprising the linked post reads with a serious undercurrent of conspiracy theory.

I feel like it has double meaning, both with "Moore's Law" and "More Threads".

Then the laws need to change. I love how "how the constitution reads" is a dead horse.

It means no one has written a "Why we switched to webpack" article in years so that means it's completely obsolete and useless. Hacker News logic 101.

Free speech is the guarantee the government won't censor you. Just because Twitter shares are tradable on public markets doesn't mean they're a public utility.

The moment I saw mention of Python 2 I was like "well, yeah". I'm sure that won't solve all, or even many of the ills, but if you're not reasonably up to date with your language and libraries then yeah, you're

You should tell your boss but I don't know what your boss is like, what your financial picture looks like, etc. Obviously if you think they're gonna fire you right away then maybe get your ducks in a row first. If you can afford

I just use FastAPI as a Flask replacement with Pydantic bolted on. Works out great for my use cases.

Rails and Django are both very pleasant and have enormous ecosystems where every imaginable problem has been encountered and "solved". It's been a while since i was writing Rails but from what I gather Rails 7 is a homerun re

I spent the 2000's writing a lot of java servlets with a smattering of JSP and a little bit of Android. I spent the first few years of the 2010's doing multiple Android apps. Java as a language is verbose but overall isn't th

While I'm inclined to agree that the outlook now is better than the onset of the pandemic, this antiviral was just approved and only with an emergency use authorization. I think until there's more than enough of this to go around

Because this is crypto it gets the eyeballs but really this is just a successful phish. If it was "Wells Fargo users get accounts drained by targeted attack" it wouldn't get 25% of the views.

The real pattern is to write a separate service for user auth and then put everything else into a monolith. The auth service is almost always the first one to be "broken out" so just get that out of the way first. Now you have max

Large companies will always pay huge amounts of $$$ for support. They can't be telling engineers "Go google some stuff" if critical components go down.

This is a very blurry line. People in the industry always will be the first to tell you you owe companies no loyalty and to always look out for yourself first and foremost. But then when someone says they slack off on code reviews while the

People want to (eventually) be compensated for their hard work and the value you derive from their hard work. Not a shock.

Nomad gets the job done. What you end up missing is the huge ecosystem of tooling and knowledge that comes "for free" with Kubernetes.
