Why would it be important to be able to switch cloud providers and keep the same addresses on your internal network? Changing providers while keeping addresses seems abstractly like a nice capability to have but it also seems that it might

What confuses me about Bluetooth audio is that I did the math a while ago and unless I got it wrong, reasonably modern Bluetooth should have the bandwidth to stream uncompressed digital audio... So why are we still stuck with this awful los

Some of the time, yeah. It seems a lot better for all of us to front theses costs of government operation rather than foisting all of that cost onto people who were unlucky enough to be wronged or wrongly sued, by no fault of their own.

That's true of the American legal system as a whole. It generally seems to ignore the cost to the victim of dealing with the legal system...

With http 2, repeatedly sending the same header value over a persistent connection should cause just a pointer to the previous value to be sent so I don't really buy the size argument here.

That hasn't been my experience at all. Indeed, I have gone found static typing to give me superpowers by letting me quickly see what kinds of data and transformations I have access to, constraining out possibilities that I'd other

Note that Bazel is a build system ( https://bazel.build ). I believe you are confusing it with Stubby. That's not to say that the general thrust of what you're saying is necessarily wrong though.

Flying is not strictly necessary to live but is deeply ingrained into the "standard" lifestyle in the same way as, say, the internet or industrialized food products. In my opinion, such society-critical goods and services need to

Unfortunately, enabling this stuff seems to be the deal with the devil you have to do in order to become a mainstream platform. I highly doubt that ARM will supplant x86 without also offering something that is functionally equivalent to ME.

I was going to say "definitely" but then I had the idea that they could be using some kind of crazy encapsulating proxy on localhost and then still using secure transport to go across the real network... but yeah no... no one shou

It would be nice and pleasant if that were true but if you go back and watch Sean Murray's interviews it is clear that it wasn't brainstorming. He really did say that the game had things in it that did not have at launch.

In properly-set-up Kubernetes, no aspect of TLS is defeated. Instead, trusted CA certs (usually self-generated) are made freely available to everyone and then those are used to validate everything. If anyone is using self-signed certs and d

At this point it is clear that this is a thing that will happen for a whole lot of orgs. You would be well advised to dabble at this point and see if it connects with you. At the least, you should understand what problems are and are no

There's quite a bit of selection bias because people who don't want a touchbar generally have a strong enough opinion on it that they aren't buying computers with touchbars.

"Beta" is kind of an awful purgatory state on GCP. We all know that most of their beta stuff is actually really well-tested and stable (it's even mentioned in this article). They also know it themselves and seem to assume tha

Your understanding is correct, though they also created a control plane (which they actually wrote in Go instead of Rust), added a bunch of features, removed a bunch of configurability, and restricted themselves to supporting apps running i

That's exactly what Nix does! Nix is wonderful tech that unfortunately seems doomed to low adoption due to poor usability. My belief is that this stems the fact that maintaining the package tree is obscenely costly of contributor time,

Contravariance, as shown here, is extremely helpful for a working programmer and (like much of strongly typed functional programming) becomes more so as you begin to let go of that type of concern and just learn the stuff. Say you have a JS

On a relative scale with other DBMS's, Postgres is one of the most featureful, nicest-to-use databases. In reality, though, it's really terrible... It's just the least terrible. One problem is that all those fancy features ar

My point is that if Apple's webapps are good enough to serve as the only interface to e.g. your documents on other platforms, they should also be good enough for MacOS. I don't personally believe that they are good enough for that

If the web app is good enough, then the desktop versions shouldn't exist and thus shouldn't be installed. They end up being "bloat" either way.

My belief is that being able to not see stuff like that gives a much stronger sense of ownership of the device. It also removes you from an endless treadmill of software updates to something you don't use (some of which may even force

Ah, if you look under the covers, Kubernetes service discovery is actually kernel-space virtual load balancers running on each node in your cluster. The DNS record just points to the "load balancer".

Yes. From a certain point of view: Tesla have been blatantly illegally stealing code for years and are only now finally beginning to properly secure a license for some of it.
