They said in the article without getting super-specific that they have low-latency / high-throughput / time sensitive data processing needs in each restaurant. It sounds like they have a whole bunch of sensors tracking their inven

I currently use submodules inside of vendor/ and set each dependency's remote to the SSH URL. You can then simply use git clone --recursive to get everything, including via SSH. That being said, I share your hope that this can rem

It's super impressive to me how much mileage we've gotten out of the Hubble Space Telescope. The article implies that this finding was made found in old data once the researchers knew what to look for. Does anyone know how much da

I have an eye condition that requires me to wear scleral lenses to see normally. They bill insurance over $2200 per pair of lenses. If that price can be brought down, that would be a big deal for me. Is this sort of lens a target for you?

Rather than a technical argument, or a clarifying point of view, all I see here is basically "we formed a committee goddammit, we're the incumbent, how dare you not listen to us?" In my eyes, Russ is too nice here, and this c

To each their own, but I personally prefer the lego-building block-approach instead of the kitchen-sink approach of bigger frameworks. In Go at least, this scales quite nicely with your code IMO. I use a couple of thin layers over net/

I've heard that NAFTA provides an easier immigration process for employees in a NAFTA country (Canada or Mexico). How does that work, and what are the limitations and trade-offs of this method, if any?

Interesting, you have a point actually. I would have thought that the performance cost of calling through an interface would be negligible, but I'm wrong about that: https://github.com/golang/go/issues/20

After only a quick glance at your code, I'd try to tackle it by wrapping my own interface around the different image types (which you could argue the image standard lib should've already done for you). The interface will define Cr

For me personally, it's _actively working_ with code more so than merely reading it. If I read code without a concrete goal, I find that I gloss over important details and fail to really grok the purpose and design of the code, and the

Can't echo this enough. Without a VPN, your ISP can see some of your traffic (unencrypted + who you talk to). When you use a commercial VPN, the ability to snoop like your ISP just transfers to them. As much as we love to hate our ISPs
