It worked fine, we had no issue with it. We moved to SQS because it was one less thing we needed to spend time on.

I tried very hard to use postgres as a queue, it was robust but slow once I started to push from more than a few processes/servers. Moving to zeromq initially and sqs after solved all my perf issues, and was still solid.

Oh! I couldn't find it when I looked for it this morning. Thank you!

Nice. It reminds me of a blog of a guy who had mounted a flatbed scanner on an electrical motor to make a digital photo before digital camera existed. He had added one of the resulting picture of his backyard. It was one of the most viral S

I did not know the term but I'm thinking that the old project management triangle (cheap, good, fast) is a specialisation of that concept.

Before the concept of cloud was a thing, every company and a computer room, smaller ones were literal closets, bigger ones were large data centers, with everything in between. Skills can be hired and trained.

I was surprised they used a square (5x5) as fonts are usually taller than wide. But they mention: > Narrower 4x5 and 3x5 dimensions are possible, but would require sacrificing the M, dotted zero, and reduce U/V/Y distinctivenes

The price does not matter, even if it were free. If you need to be logged on into an external service to be able to code, it's just not the same any more, and I'm thinking of basic technology here, but the political/distopian

For me, the biggest shift is people who don't care about local AI. The idea that you can no longer code without paying a tax to one of the billion $ backed company isn't sitting well.

Citation Needed. My understanding is that the very few studies that showed positive impact of "adding" saturated fat turned out to be a replacement issue. They replaced junk (candy, refined carbs) with sat fat. Replacing with MUFA

30 % of the population have genetic makeup such that they can smoke all their life and not increase their risk of lung cancer by much, yet it's deadly for the other 70% of the population. Many many studies over many decades, reviewed a

Right, that makes sense and the way all providers that I've seen, work.

When you say no ipv4 on regular phone plan, you mean no routable ipv4 on the internet, or no ipv4 at all?

Or we should start a wall of shame of services not available on IPv6.

mDNS In the past few weeks I have been exploring mDNS and IPv6. Your router doesn't provide local DNS? Not an issue, add .local to the hostnames and boom, everything works. For example, run `python3 -m http.server` on your laptop, then

Perfect timing for me, I've just been spending my side-project time in the last few weeks on building the smallest possible VMs with different glibc distros exactly for this, running podman containers, and comparing results.

Agreed but we do have to interact with them. I once tried to sell a car with 140 Mm and got nowhere. I then changed the add to 140_000 km and got a lot more interest.
