our JS build time was hovering around 30m for small changes. I built a proof-of-concept backend in go (basically a mirror of some existing services), and was able to build and deploy it in no time flat. No one knew typescript at our org, bu

I tried very hard to bring go into my previous employers environment, but it was all for naught. They are too bought into the JavaScript stack. Case studies like this would have been super helpful in trying to make my claims.

Can someone here please explain the motivation behind all these SPAC transactions? Is it just to avoid the red tape and S-1 of IPO filing?

I think getting listed before the uncertainty of the election might have something to do with it?

Wholeheartedly agree. What you're describing is like the ideal mysql use case. Also, even the most basic next steps performance-wise will probably tithe you over well into the TBs of data. The headroom for mysql is quite a bit higher t

having had several german cars in the past, it's not that hard to import euro-spec headlights and install them, but your jaw might drop when you see the price.

I have definitely been supporting my local brewers much to the chagrin of my wife and waistline.

This is a nice thought experiment if you work on a next.js app or similar and bootstrap is doing all the heavy lifting, but falls apart when it comes to writing CSS by hand or native apps that have any complicated functionality that surpass

https://blogs.microsoft.com/blog/2020/01/16/microsoft-will-b... Microsoft plans to be carbon negative by 2030. I think it's via offsets. For example, if Apple planted a tree for every iPhone sold. T

While this is definitely a noble goal, I wonder what it would take for Apple to become carbon negative and what the timeframe for that would be?

I listened to it as a book on tape on a very long road trip and it was perfect. Don't think I could have made it through otherwise.

It would be a huge improvement (and a weight off my shoulders as a driver) if the car could show you the confidence level it has in the current road situation. Eg. I took a tesla through the snow, and I wouldn't trust autopilot with my

Vim serves a very specific niche. Want to edit files on a remote server? This is the default option. Need to open a massive text file? Vim has got you where sublime, vscode fail. I switched from emacs after college and haven’t looked back.

Swing in Shibuya is a real treat. I stayed in an Airbnb in the same building and found it by accident. I sat in there all day ripping cigs, drinking highballs and listening to old school bangers. The guy who owns it, Suzuki-San tends the ba

Perhaps some hitherto unforeseen competitive advantage in routes and flight paths? But even then, seems tough. If you thought middle seat on the last row of United was bad, can’t wait to see what this looks like when they’re done with it.

There is a lot of beauty in go’s simplicity. Very straightforward to reason about what’s going on. I find it much easier on the eyes than java.

I wonder how many states are also cooking the stats amidst the flurry of reopening.

Having cognitive dissonance between all of these very similarly named js frameworks. Next, Nuxt and Nest... is there some kind of weird inside joke that I’m not in on?

I’m pretty bought into the amazon ecosystem at this point but happy to re-evaluate others.

Golang, MySQL on ec2. Been using this formula for years. Turns out it works pretty well.
