> I guess a lot of it is because the APIs I’m calling are so badly designed. Sort of, sounds like the problem is that you have a distributed monolith. If things are this tightly coupled they should just live in same process. If you even

When you change function signature it doesn't compile until you fix all the call sites. Maybe after you see all the broken call sites you think that's too much work maybe there is some other way to do what I want. When you change

Every single endpoint in a monolith can be deployed and scaled independently. In a single such deployment the rest of the endpoints are just dead code not costing anything except larger image. Also in many cases work should not be performed

> It may be the sloppiest, crappiest definition every, with dynamic types Funny you said that since a microservice API is always dynamically typed and its usage cannot be checked by compiler. And the more microservices you use the more d

The brain is nothing like a computer, for the brain doing things that computers do easily are even in the most trivial cases very hard and otherwise impossible. And vice versa. Yet these things that have effectively zero overlap in capabili

Firstly, if you stop all human input into AI and have AI only output based on other AI output you will never generate anything new in a trillion years, it just regresses into variations of the original human input before it was stopped. It

Please check your assumptions. Why do you think 2 modules cannot be in different runtimes? How do you think JNI works? You can absolutely call js running in V8 vm from scala running in jvm. No networking needed, hell not even IPC is needed.

Module is not just code in a separate file. Litmus test: if you cannot have two modules be written in separate languages - you don't have modules. M If all modules have to be deployed using the same build even though different build of

Just because the monolith image contains all code doesnt mean each deployment needs to run all that code. Or even same version of the code. A deployment can run only a small portion of the code determined by deployment args. It can even run

Then why cannot you have separate repos and review processes for modules? This has nothing to do with microservices vs modules.

Huh? They can, and will, just add the things they want to the rest api of the microservice A and then call them from B. That doesn't change with microservices. Look up a thing called "distributed monolith".

"waste" a lot of time reinventing wheels (the lower level the better, ultimate example would be writing your own OS) and other stuff that has no practical outcome for your immediate problems.

Yeah, this could have been a small npm package for node. Node already supports workers that communicate with serialization or shared array buffers+locks.

It was all based on lies and fabrication without any conspiracy. You are assuming it requires a conspiracy to pull it off, but why would it? These agencies, media and companies are all interested in the same thing which is US hegemony and p

It's proof by contradiction. Either you are against bombing innocents or you are not. By holding a stance that only Russia bombing innocents is wrong you are not only for bombing innocents you are also a russophobe at the same time.

NATO members don't have any obligation to defend or even really aid an attacked member. The article 5 is ridiculously vague. I think sacrificing the member state to avoid nuclear war is what would happen. It won't be any different

Global poverty has improved mostly due to China, which is total opposite of neoliberal policy (privatisation, deregulation, austerity [allowing rich to pay less taxes while taking the necessary tax money via cuts to social programs] etc). A

The OP explicitly claimed that US cares about human rights. So no it is not "whataboutism", which a bs term anyway because it is almost always used in situations where someone implicitly claims that the US cares about human rights

Well unfortunately it doesn't get better than that, except when working as remote you can lie on a sofa or bed. After a full day you still have full energy to do optimal amount of physical exercise, just enough (which is relatively lit

You are probably comparing accidents of self-driving cars in optimal conditions (since they cannot even drive in any other conditions lol) to all accidents in all conditions in human drivers.

Yep and in optimal amounts, which is surprisingly little.

A communist state is merely a state that wishes to achieve communism, a stateless (classless) society. There is no such thing as communist state that has achieved communism because at that point in the world states no longer exist because c

Improving efficiency doesn't address the problem at all. If you only improve efficiency then consumption grows to negate any gains.

The AI doesn't produce its own code or learn, it is just a search engine on existing code. Any result it gives exists in some form in the original dataset. That's why the original dataset needs to be massive in the first place, wh

No it's much simpler. To maximize profits you need real growth, as that maximizes profits. If you don't maximize profits then someone else will and you will lose. This effectively means that capitalism requires infinite growth.

I disagree. Almost all software I use these days is absurdly slower than it should be and probably a massive drain on collective productivity. I have ssd, fast internet, 64gb ddr4 etc, almost everything I do should be impercetibly instant b
