This is one of my favorite parts about contracting... you still have to deal with a little bit of office politics and drama but you're mostly shielded from it. I love dropping in once a week or so, greasing the relationship wheels, and

Great analogy to a closed alpha or beta for an online game. I played the WoW beta way back in the day - interactions with other players and the sense of community was completely different before vs after public launch. Perhaps related to th

Twitter is only important to the in-group that uses it. To them, it feels bigger and more important than it is because half of it is made up of bots and spammers inflating numbers and activity. Social media is unfortunately one of the bigge

Not sure how you reached this conclusion. How is this "discussing sexual preferences at work"?

Agreed, I use webpack for small and medium projects and it's basically instant. I use TS but not the compiler - I tell babel to strip types and use just a few plugins, transforms and loaders. I'm not in love but it's a core t

Yeah, probably best not to be too concerned about imaginary internet points.

> ...on average, there will always be 6 bitcoins minted every 10 minutes Just to clarify a bit further, this is true right now but the amount minted with each block isn't constant and decreases over time. More info on block rewards:

We won't be back at square one even if the fees end up the same, since the transaction thoroughput would be higher. Bigger blocks means more transactions per block and at a constant rate of 6 blocks/hr that means the network can h

While this is definitely welcome news, GPU VFIO passthrough has been possible for awhile now. I've been playing games on my windows VM + linux host for a few years at least. 95% native performance without needing to dual boot has been

Full-stack dev here, running 1x1080 23" (top) + 3x1440 27". No real interest in moving to 4k, 1440 is the sweet spot for my workstation. The only problem... need more monitors!!

Hmm, so as long as the firehose of vomit continues to spew from the PR dept, it's all good? All you have to do is make it look like you're doing something? Never used parler and not defending them but idk why facebook gets a free

Completely agreed. I see too many people jumping on the "Capitalism is the root of all evil" bandwagon too easily without critical thought. Like you, I see our current problems arising due to the usual historical culprits of corru

Agreed, GCP EOL is one of the few things that would piss me off enough to leave Gsuite and the rest of Google's services.

As in - a single workload that can't fit on a single physical machine? No I don't, although I certainly could if I needed to. Most of my workloads are either low-traffic WP sites or bespoke web-based business tools for clients wit

Same here! I'm a programmer who dabbles in graphics so having a procedural workflow feels very natural to me and I love the direction geometry nodes is heading. Exciting times ahead! Agreed, the support is a little bare currently but f

Hmm, I guess I should shut down my business then since I'm a solo founder using k8s exclusively for my hosting for 3+ years... Definitely a learning curve but honestly not bad if you like ops. Absolutely possible and beneficial for any

As a longtime and frequent user of k8s, I stay away from helm charts. I tried them out when they first got popular but I found they introduced more friction than they solved on the whole. Not every addon/tool for the k8s ecosystem is w

Agreed. I'm a solo technical founder and have been using k8s for all my hosting for 3+ years. It's so easy (for me) that I'm fine paying a premium for the managed service (GCP) since it saves me lots of time, my most valuable

There's okay stock for 5600X + 5800X but the 59xx series is nowhere to be found and probably won't be until later this year if you read between the lines of what the industry is saying. I broke down waiting for a 5950X and bought

A very similar game called Dyson Sphere Program came out in the last week, I've been having a great time with it! Basically Factorio with planets and solar systems you can fly to. Early access but tons of content.

I still get these lockups to this day, even on 5.11 and my i5 6600k. Looking forward to a 5950X when I can find one!

Agreed, TS is a big productivity boost and is here to stay, definitely worth investing time into if you want to get further into JS ecosystem. You can safely ignore Deno for the time being.

Sure, ignore half of my comment and put words in my mouth (I said nothing about any form of punishment). I'm not defending or excusing Trump's actions, I'm pointing out that there are actually worse people out there and to sa
