left-pad is symbolic of dependency and supply chain issues generally. If all you took away from that incident is that there's risk only from someone unpublishing the module then you probably need to go back and think about it some more

Am I misunderstanding what is meant by semantic code search? I thought the idea was that you run something like a parser on the repo to extract function/class/variable names and then allow searching on a more rich set of data, rat

$2500 isn't too far off of the BOM for epaper this large, plus some markup for the assembler. Even if you bought this as a bare panel and a battery on Alibaba, you're not going to do better than $1500 or so. At current date that&#

Possibly, but that's orthogonal to my comment. Point is that there will still be cities that have to shoulder PG&E costs not because they have fires but because they can't afford to purchase and maintain their own grid, or d

Thanks for replying, and sorry for implying the wrong state of things. I think that writing software for an employer has always kind of sucked. There's never enough time to improve things to the state they should be and you're alw

Seems like maybe antirez has lost the joy of coding, at least for a little while. It's easy to get caught up in what you dislike about software, but you have to make yourself try new stuff too. There's always more delight to be fo

PG&E surely knows that if it lets one city do this, then more will follow quickly. It will be left with the least profitable regions and cities that can't afford to/don't have the credit for this transition. That would ul

TURN does seem largely unnecessary. I think the issue is flipped - we'd be better off if people could stop building broken networks with bad NAT.

Interesting that it says CarPlay but it doesn't seem to support maps or other apps, just music playback? For me, maps are the real killer feature of CarPlay

This was a great read. Opinionated for sure, but I don't need to believe it entirely to enjoy it. The fact that it's now flagged and gone is regrettable.

Without a good amount of peering, this seems unlikely to work. There is really no guarantee about where traffic will exit a user ISP's network and enter the next. On average, sure, it may take a reasonably short path, but it might also

If a battery is infeasible, perhaps a hand crank could be added for power? In such cases where power was lost, one of the crew could be instructed to provide continuous crank power to the black box.

So that leaves us with the following approximate advice, "Skip anything extra that's uncessary, unless it is actually necessary, and make sure to know the difference." Easy!

Many industrial applications as well. Mitsubishi used it in the ECU of some of its cars, including the Lancer Evolution.
