As a fan of Go the only really thing I’m missing is a better way to work with data. Something like LINQ probably wont ever be possible with Go but built in support for map/filter/reduce with some handy built in aggregations would

You're just furthering my point that your good attitude is a major component of your success. I agree with you 100% and I'm always grateful I get to work in this career, bad parts and all. For the record, you sound like exactly t

This is bad advice in many organizations. The best architects I've ever worked with were excellent coders and kept up to date with everything even if only 10% of their role involved writing actual code. It's very hard to be a tec

You're having a blast because you have a great attitude towards your work and feel empowered. This isn't always true for everyone, particularly if you're in a situation where the organization around you isn't healthy. I

I’m going to leave out some details but there was a period of time where you could bypass cloudflare’s IP whitelisting by using Apple’s iCloud relay service. This was fixed but to my knowledge never disclosed.

I think if you've known anyone who was an alcoholic, a tobacco smoker, or even someone who had to taper off prescription benzos or SSRIs you'd know that cannabis withdrawal symptoms are relatively benign. Caffeine withdrawal is s

There's a ton of Tesla customers who've experienced some variation of minor battery problems that turn into full replacements, this isn't a new issue. This poor guy hit some debris that broke a coolant hose connector into th

There are more people than you think that can slap together some YAML and a Helm chart and deploy something reasonably resilient inside a Kubernetes cluster. I've been around for the cloud migrations in every phase, what we have today

The anti-pattern here isn't Kafka, it's using Kafka for 7,500 messages/day. Making your whole system asynchronous for that level of load is the textbook definition of over-engineering.

Debugging issues with Netty from someone not intimately familiar with it's internals was an exercise in pain.

There’s no doubt in my mind that EVs are the future, it’s just hard to fault people who don’t want to pay more for an objectively worse overall product. For the record, I think within the next 10 years that will change but I don’t think 5 t

Excuse the rough conversions but here where I live in the US (New England) the speed limit is generally ~105km/hr on highways but isn't enforced below 130km/hr unless there's some other violation in play. It seems entire

It's not exactly fair to compare a bloated luxury model with what's fairly described as a minimalist car. Compare a BMW 330i with a an i4 and you'll get a much better idea of the battery penalty involved, it's closer to

As someone who owned a Mustang GT for a few years when I was younger, they weigh a lot because they have large V8s and beefy components to handle the power. They're also annoying to park because they have a much longer hood than most

Home Depot will rent you a Ford 250 for an 75 minutes for $19. I've done this a few times and it's a great option for the once or twice a year you actually need to haul something heavy. https://www.homedepot.com/p

I don't know why you're aggressively attacking this guy, it sounds like agree with most of what he says. The Rav4 is basically the kind of car most people should get instead of a lot of what's popular today. The Rav4 is a ha

How does this compare with SoFi’s Galileo platform just in terms of feature set. The Galileo API is fairly rich so I’m wondering what’s different and potentially better.

Sun is a great example of a company that had excellent engineers but a terrible business model. Instead of fixing the business model, they tried to extract as much value out what they had and it ultimately lead to the death of the company.

We don't have to do things exactly the same way we always did and offices will change, my point is only that a lot of these types of articles are outright dismissive of regular, in person communication at all.

This is one of those vague "it depends on your organization" type answers. I've worked in apps where frontend folks did the JSPs and backend folks did everything else and it wasn't really optimal either. You end up wit

I think full time work in the office is 100% dead and buried. It's never coming back for people who have enough skills to leverage that kind of arrangement. I think the first place we need to start is there. Most of us are NEVER goi

This is something I’ve complained about before on HN but this rings really hollow when Go 1.17 arbitrarily updated the x.509 package to suddenly stop supporting TLS hostname validation based on the CN field because it was deprecated in the

I think acknowledging that the US has fundamental issues that need to be address is a completely fair statement. What nobody can ever seem to answer is, where does the threat to US hegemony come from? China is fundamentally unstable and wh

We also run Istio at scale and feel the same way. During adopting it’s a pain, when it’s up and running it’s a dream.

This is the WORST feeling if you use co-pilot in an IDE. It's so incredibly disappointing.
