Yeah, I found this confusing at first. But you can even run WebSockets on it for minutes at a time, or piped large files through it taking many seconds. As long as they're not using CPU, they can keep running.

Which scripting language has a better claim to being universal? JavaScript runs on billions of diverse systems worldwide, both browser, server and CLI.

Bear in mind this is CPU time, not wall clock time. I work with both AWS Lambda functions and Deno Deploy functions every day. I hit the 10s Lambda timeout all the time (things like slow API calls or network requests), but I never hit the

Anyone who has had to maintain a shared PHP server would say that's very different. I used PHP for years, and now use serverless functions (both Lambda and Deno). Serverless means you don't need to worry about anything except the

That's not a fair reply. One of the main benefits of Deno is that they're using existing standards. It's Node that's the outlier.

Deno code is really close to browser code. If you have ESM code that runs in the browser and doesn't need access to the DOM then it's a good bet it'll run on Deno, and vice versa. They use web standards for most things, and a

Netlify Edge Functions use Deno Deploy, as do Supabase Edge Functions. I'd imagine that's a significant part of their revenue. (I work at Netlify, but have no insight into the financials of this arrangement)

I've been using the beta since last year and I love it. I think most of the people complaining about it either haven't used it, or are judging it on its most verbose guesses. That's not what I use it for mostly. For me, it&#x

Right, but communication with your co-workers is a vital part of being able to do the job well.
731.
by ascorbic 4y ago
That makes no sense. Why would somebody who is extremely motivated to keep the job work less hard? Surely they'd want to do everything they could to keep it by doing their very best work. It's the people who could easily jump to a

It's implicitly saying that anyone in a low cost of living area must be less talented, because if they were talented then they would have emigrated.

That you should leave your cheating until you've left education because there are fewer checks, people are more credulous and the rewards are greater?

(I work at Netlify, and worked on this) It uses Deno Deploy for the actual execution of the function, but the whole workflow around it, routing and middleware API, integration with frameworks and the CDN are all Netlify. It's similar t

I work at Netlify on framework integrations. Next has beta support for running the whole app at the edge, and Netlify supports that. If you create you own custom edge functions they will run first, so you can do just that. You can also run

How would you see that working?

Have you tried using Amplify?

(I work at Netlify) The most exciting thing in this announcement for me is the $1 million committed to open source project sponsorship. More companies that rely on OSS should use some of their funding like this.

Cookies are a tiny part of what the GDPR is about (and it isn't even the main regulation that covers them). It's what people associate with it because adtech companies have made cookie banners deliberately obnoxious for that very

I once didn't properly unlink Spotify when I returned my car to the leasing company. The driver taking it back played bhangra for about half an hour using my account before I noticed. Changing the password, unlinking devices nothing wo

I'm sure they can take that into account.

I also find it strange. I find the algorithm incredibly good. I did link it with iTunes back in the day, so it started off knowing what I like, and I always Like tracks when I like them. Now I often find myself pressing like on most tracks

What's wrong with having lots of ingredients?

I'd imagine it's been pretty well designed for performance already. Best to stick with something that won't affect the signal.

Almost always it's just a custom audience or lookalike, with no way of knowing how that audience was assembled.

Maybe, but this isn't one of those cases. This wasn't inadvertent or negligent, this was straight up deliberate fraud.
