I currently run this! Kinda... I haven't really touched it since 2017 when I built it as an evening project to see if it could be done as a static AWS API Gateway configuration. It costs a few dollars a month plus the domain cost and a

I think the users started calling them “servers” and it stuck. Their API, and I’m guessing internal naming as well, calls them guilds[1] [1] https://discord.com/developers/docs/resources/guild

A service oriented architecture is not a bad thing. It has its benefits as well as it’s downsides. The key is to know when to use the pattern and when not to. I’m not sure what exactly “modular monolith” means but I’m guessing it’s some kin

I think it depends on your pricing model. If you’re paying 5-10% for a CRM/specialized app/integration you’re likely charging too little. I’ve had bills be around 1-2% and that was willingly knowing I wasn’t optimizing for billing

I have minimal (almost zero) experience with Google Cloud but if were to guess the reason to not consider Cloud Run is the pricing model. While solutions like Cloud Run (and Lambda or Fargate in AWS) give you a lot of flexibility they are s

It also depends on traffic patterns. For EC2 you're paying per hour regardless of whether you had traffic or not. For Lambda you're paying per unit of time used and you pay nothing when the function isn't invoked.

Slightly off-topic answer: back in the day these used to be Java Applets so the original mathlets name is probably a pun on them.

It all depends on your use case. If your input is bound to a small N, I’ll take the simplest to understand implementation regardless of algorithmic complexity. Future you and other people will thank you later.

The problem with having your API key in the URL is that they'll likely be logged all over the place when they're meant to be secret. You probably have the keys being leaked in logs, error reports, metrics, etc.
