This isn’t a normal useful orbit in terms of supporting astronauts on the moon or being available for recovery etc. and was definitely not used to support earlier moon landings. I think it only has a lunar revisit once every 7 days. Imagine

No kidding. I was adjacent to a tape out w some last minute tweaks - ugh. The problem is the current cycle time is very slow and costly and u spend as much time validating things as you do designing. It’s not programming.

AWS drops to $50/TB - still 2x to 10x maybe? A lot of CDNs cost a surprising amount or hide pricing.

The IPv4 charge is a good one! I thought this was to allow them to be more relaxed about the limit (5 per region) which is how they used to control fully free services that cost them. But an increase for sure - they did note the supply of f

Right - I’ve been on them since EC2 flat network / simple DB days and was trying to remember if I ever got an email like this. I know google has jacked rates (maps etc) and killed services (I used their first paas before it was basical

When has AWS done something like this? LB11 going from 20TB to 1TB for the same price is wild if you’d built a business on this platform.

The original comment was about how concurrency expands / makes it easier for there to be errors in go (which avoids LOTs of other errors just with compile time / type safety stuff). "very easy to have bugs when working with c

Voyagers were built by JPL and not contracted out so align to a degree with the spacex model. In part this was because budget got cut badly. “In order to reduce costs and overheads, NASA decided to leave design and construction of the Marin

This was the europe-west3-c zone not the full region. I don't know why journalists can't get these things right (though a full zone outage WOULD be more interesting so perhaps it's a way to drive clicks). Power failure /

How is it even legal for wordpress.org (a public nonprofit) to take these actions on behalf of a for profit?

It's also not an advantage, I've seen endless complexity in abstractions on abstraction, fragility and giving up really nice cloud features for this. It'd take years to migrate STILL even with all that effort. And they can&#x

A lot of business don't want to bother performance managing that closely. Plenty just worked off of trust. * You hire someone, and then figure out someone else is doing the work (usually because they are making stupid mistakes, and the

I thought infiniband was more expensive and that even AI where bandwidth is super important was trying to get away from it towards cheaper options.

Why does this not inspire confidence in Tesla. Their internal software stack is available to their own developers who can review what is actually there. Why does it have to be perfectly documented in a public github? Are all other car compa

Very unlikely board is getting paid. 5 million is a rounding error in terms of spend on python programming - Facebook alone between their website and ML likely does orders of magnitude more. Often a thankless job - for whatever reason these

The funny thing is I've seen folks try to deploy software to get rid of spreadsheets. It always ends badly to terribly. Spreadsheets are the nonprogrammers programming / modeling tool in business. It does presentation, data filter

I'm getting what I consider very good results. Yes, I have to iterate it and talk to it, spec very clearly, but if you know pretty precisely what you want I've found it very reliable. I usually try to actually provide AWS resource

AB5 was tough on a lot of groups nonprofits included. They're are now so many exceptions to AB5 because on a principles basis it was very difficult things to work - for example, getting a gig musician playing music for an hour at a bar

SpaceX built (and rebuilt) a tower practically overnight. They are building two more. They are building huge construction bays overnight. Their contractors are literally working nights. There is probably no comparison on cost or speed. ML-1

Wild. But it's a pattern with these contracts. As a reminder, for SLS they decided to modify an exiting launch tower (ML-1). The original estimate to modify the tower was $54 million. Final cost will likely be $1 billion. And delayed o

If true this would be huge. I got burned on the whole silverlight, Universal Windows Platform, WPF etc. All these new and improved solutions had all sorts of issues, no designer, no or weaker accessibility stories, bloated, slow etc etc. C

They aren't paid enough by developers to properly support them for these developers - they are primarily concerned about the user base that does pay them. At larger enterprise levels there is more support.
