So because everything is a Byzantine labyrinth due to scale we're all going to agree to remember to add internal headers to strip to another service? Maintaining the header to strip list is just another piece of technical debt to kee

Android uses a similar approach to launch apps quickly. When you request to start an app the zygote process forks and the child does the work of starting the app. It allows the children to share all the upfront initialization that is done o

I guess Apple is using their custom silicon? That was a major payoff for Apple - I wonder if any of the other fangs will actually be able to follow suit.

What is a project? A startup? Integrating chat bot into your support page? What is AI? Titles like this are often click bait - but since the site is down can't tell.

And to be fair it is not like any database implementations implement the entire spec, or that the spec itself is nearly as long as the C++ but still very underspecified. Piped SQL fits in perfectly with the overall SQL pot-luck buffet! I fo

Probably because you wouldn't seek into a database row? I guess querying by PK has some similarities but it is not as unstructured and random as a seek. Also side effects such as sparse files do not mean much from a database interface

POSIX interfaces (open, read, write, seek, close, etc) are very challenging to implement in an efficient/reliable way. Using SQLite let's you tailor your data access patterns in a much more rigorous way and side step the POSIX tar

In the GFC the government literally created the Troubled _Asset_ Relief Program. Those MBSs were assets and didn't magically become liabilities. The problem was the market value of those assets plummeted because no one expected them to

Liabilities are obligations of a company to pay money owed to a lender as a result of a previous transaction. You are describing an operating expense which has an entirely different nature than a liability. 'comes with a maintenance li

The margin on trucking could be so much higher than plumbing that most plumbers could never afford the R&D necessary to advance flushing tech. Big truck operates at a scale where they materially benefit from better flushing, so they ta

Trucks are literally an asset - you can't do depreciation on a liability. The only way a 'truck' could be a liability is a lease for said truck. There are plenty of economically rationale reasons why a company may own more t
