   I am not using NixOS but in general every package manager links to the project homepage let’s say (or name of the project which for example in a GitHub fork is clearly different than the original) which in this case would be the fork. So fo

   I think they proposed this: > Would you be happier if we forked your upstream source to provide our own, or provided a similar Python package with an identical API that we can use as a drop-in replacement? Wouldn’t this remove the burden

   When is the best time to give the code liver oil to a kid? (Or maybe it does not matter) but I read multiple suggestions: in the morning after breakfast or at least 1-2 hours _before_ a meal or at least 1-2 hours _after_ a meal. Can you ple

   If I would do a kind of bet, I would bet that the event which will trigger the market crash will apparently be like nothing real (like Pandemic, natural disaster ...) happened, yet one day the "market" will start selling everythin

   Wouldnt this just create the environment for a more resistant virus in a shorter period of time? I did not calculated the chances yet but here is what my probability intuition is saying Having 50% of population go through virus in one year

   I like this new UI which feels more updated and better organised in some details. I also like the idea of comments for a paper specially if the comments will be moderated (I suggest to take a look at how HN keeps the conversation valuable)

   Oh wow, how I missed that. I stand corrected! Seems like JS standard library is better than I thought.

   Here is my perspective: There are plenty of reasons to use the same language on FE and BE but for me the main problem is the JS standard library. Let me give you one example: Lets say you want to validate if a string is a valid URL. What i

   As long as we can have quarantine of cities, then we will have quarantine of countries => deadlock, each country, like now will restrict movement from other countries, thus making the freedom of movement almost impractical for everybody.

    I would like a lot to believe that this is how it will be in all EU states, but I am not sure. As far as I can see the vaccination rhythm is decreasing in some countries and it is not even approaching 50% of population. It might be because

    Can you please explain your opinion? I am curious of two things: 1. How come Django is not legacy but Rails is? 2. How come Rails in itself it legacy for SSR? I am curious and I think it worth explaining as it might be that people read the

    While I agree that in general a company should focus on customer, I strongly disagree with the phrase "the customer is always right". The customer should be listen emphatically, while trying to identify their needs and see if your

    At the level of compensation from Basecamp (at least what they say) it would be very easy to do that in 1 year: just put aside 50% of salary each month and you will have full 6 months of salary or (as you already lived on 50%) you will have

    Here is why I think your hypothesis is not true: people were buying new Macs also before M1, but it did not generated the same reactions. So newness is not the cause of this or at least it is not the only cause.

    I wish people will stop using headless in all kind of contexts. It does not help understanding how the project works. What is headless? Who come in this case CSS is a "head"? I would say HTML is the head.

    Yes, I agree with you that organisational scaling is easier when having BE and FE handled by different people. I am not yet convinced that optimising for organisational scaling could be technical benefits.

    For anyone planning to organise brainstorms I really recommend reading "Applied Imagination" written by Alex Osborn. It is a book from 1953 which introduced the idea of brainstorming. From it one can really grasp the original inte

    I think that the way we think about this has more to do with the purpose or intent and maybe with the language that we speak and it becomes more complex when thinking from self perspective. For me, for example describing a process where one

    Here I think it makes sense to split the API in two classes: 1. APIs consumed by other backends lets call them API2B 2. APIs consumed by frontends lets call them API2C In this case cursors are better for API2B but not for API2C as in case o

    In my case I managed to scale Rails (a Ruby web framework) both vertically (of course this is always simple with resource lakes like some cloud providers are offering) and horizontally. For example I can spin up as much pods on GCP or dynos
