   Then you use > 1 CDN and switch traffic away from the faulty one. Also, if you serve a very large amount (as in different, say tens of thousands of different images) of data, 1 % of traffic is not enough to keep the other CDN caches warm

   As somebody who grew up during the semi-graphic era, it makes me sad that we still use a 30 year old standard for terminals and cannot do direct plot in the main terminal (as opposed to the Tektronix separate window).

    I'd love to see how it compares to MonetDB. I've used MonetDB successfully to look at smallish data set (few hundred millions rows) that neither postgres nor sqlite could complete queries at a useful speed on my laptop (at the tim

    Same here. I don't understand where people get the idea it is a good pattern. It feels like a designer meme, or more like cargo cult, that people add just because everybody else does.

    Well take a good hard look, because as economies are slowly re-opening, everybody is going back to their old habits, even worse like people wanting to stay away from public transport as pointed out in this thread (1). I see it locally, but

    Surprising how it was able to recognize my crude sketching of tables, chairs, barns, etc... Now, here's a challenge: try to draw an airplane that doesn't get recognised as a penis!

    Adding a personal connection to the topic is true of almost all HN threads. Most of the time I find it interesting and read through the comments, but sometimes it irritates me as I'm only interested in the topic itself, in which case I

    Thanks. Sad, especially considering they moved to zsh. Trying to write short scripts that work both on Linux and Mac is getting more difficult.
