For what it's worth, you're going to have to optimize away gel-packs somehow if you do want it to be handled in an eco-friendly way. The vast majority of people are going to throw those in the garbage. Sending them back to you is

This is essentially the model the Go community is aiming to do with versioning standards. It's also the philosophy the linux kernel takes to e.g. syscalls. It's something a lot of libraries could learn from. Most users want to bui

I'm sure they've done the math and realized that the incentive doesn't line up. They explicitly stressed in earnings calls that they have no plan whatsoever to share concessions or ticket revenue with third parties like Movie

There have been claims that http2 pipelining means it's more efficient to serve bundles as separate files, unminified so they can be downloaded in parallel. (I haven't yet seen numbers that show it's a benefit in practice tho

The deluge of low quality, rebranded, foreign built junk is a real problem for Amazon. A search for food scale[0] for example gives you a whole page of similar (many exactly identical with different brand names) pieces of garbage - they hav

I really love parinfer when doing clojure. It makes lisp syntax kinda seem like writing python. Much more accessible to me that way.

12-14 year olds aren't going to be dropping 250 bucks a year. If you look at something like newgrounds, a lot of that was bored teenagers.

I suspect a lot of early internet amateur animators got started on pirated/shared versions of Flash. Probably helped the proliferation of that scene a whole lot. Cloud based service models make that much harder.

GCP does it by requiring a header on requests to metadata systems. Require a header on your internal services and make sure you never send that header with user-requested URLs and you can guarantee safety there.

I actually didn't realize it was doable (not a heavy rust user - just an enthusiast). Kinda hidden away in docs under an example [0] and isn't in the book under hash maps [1]. Might be worth calling out somewhere explicitly? Peopl

To be fair, there's utility to avoid it: check first or do a .get(). That helps you be expressive about what you think should/should not exist

Seems unlikely. Developers are already using the DOM model outside of the browser entirely a'la Electron because in modern times it's such a productive and accessible development environment. I can't imagine we'd try to

There are stacks that can give you delicious sharing here. Clojure/clojurescript with Lacinia[0] for example could lead to something pretty terrific, as Clojure DB access is all immutable structs instead of activerecord-style stuff. [0

How close are the renders to movie-accurate (that is, what's missing?)? Looking at e.g. [0], it seems to be missing a lot vs what is seen in the film. Are features missing compared to the original, were things missing from the scene de

I visited the Marie Sharp's factory in Belize ~a decade ago, that was a really cool experience. It's an impressively sized business and something of a national pride. Not to mention, all the sauces are super delicious.
