Energy independence (from Middle East) was once unthinkable, but we did it, and also included a speech. Sure, not the same level. Climate change is also a similarly difficult problem, but neither of this gives a Hollywood movie style ending

Part of it is their internal obsession for everything being a Chrome extension and all tied to gmail. Just make a freaking native app for something as important as making a call. For what is worth, I was a happy Grand central user from the

Two suggestions 1. Weight sites by some popularity count. Otherwise does anyone care if some random small site generates a 0.1k response just to get to the top 2. Do you plan continuously verify the download size is still accurate.

Also please signup for informed delivery if your mailing address is covered by it. It is wonderful getting a 4 hour heads up on what mail you might get that day. I have discovered that fact that my mail carrier lost letters in one instance.

Then why don't we design such a system first with a higher level of guarantee first and inform users that this the goal.

Please read the whole article. If it only takes a "few hours" to create incriminating "evidence" (read, something that didn't exist) - it must be clearly proclaimed as such to the world.

Please read the whole article before jumping into a conclusion about the author, Matthew Green. He sighted two examples where incorrect crypto science affected both a Democrat and a Republican. He is not trying to protect any particular sid

The title should be “all driver licenses data in Texas”. Texas population is close to that number. It is not limited to that one insurance provider. They had a copy of the data for entire state!

That may be true, but the minimum speed before you are honked at from the car behind is about 60. That also matters.

Would this imply that you will be targeting in-memory analytics only? Offtopic: I have been following your company and team closely during many Gophercons. Good luck to your team ... although a bit sad to see you go the Rust route :P

Part zero made me chuckle! Whenever I start a project I go through the same motion of trying to find a good name for it. I am sure it is not rational, but somehow I would hate the project myself if the name doesn’t feel right.

Well, Spotify plans in certain countries are cheaper & adjusted to what the market can afford - just like many other services.

Little off topic, but it unfortunate that the ultimate edition doesn’t include C/C++ and I have to buy yet another pack of “all products” to get that. I pay out of pocket and have yearly subscription. Not sure if the next thing they ma

I had a teacher who considered the mess it leaves on the front short pocket as payback for jumping/running around in school grounds - as sort of a sign of lack of discipline. There was also a whole thing about rich vs poor in the class

For interactive queries / surgery, you do have an option with a transaction (begin/commit/abort). If it is Postgres (don't know about other dbs), you can go a way long way using "savepoints" and "rollbacks

I have a habit of creating cli tools, which potentially do dangerous things, to default to dry-run mode. For example, instead of the typical `--dry-run` or `-n` option, my scripts instead had a cheesy `--do-it` to be non-dry-run. It is anno

Adobe CS3 is about 10+ years old right?. I can see people blaming Adobe if they did provide a 10 yr old software without security updates. Talking about software that no longer works, I tried network recovery on a 2016 Mac. 2016 Mac is prog

The article is somewhat misleading. 1. The are raising prices from $12 to $20, not exactly "killing". But Google and "killing" in the same sentence is more attractive, I get it. 2. > have shown that Google has never e

I glimpsed at the initial tweet sample and I thought I recognized it as Malayalam. Then I dismissed that thought and walked away to take care of the rest of Sunday. A few hours later I came back to this and wow! it is actually Malayalam :)

I think it unreasonable to expect “go mod” to support any compiler version other than what is officially supported for Go - latest Go major and one older version. You are right about your case, but your use case of continuing to use an old

I don't know why people think that Google having multiple billions should mean they are willing to spend billions on every thing they do. That is not sustainable. Every project has a value to that company and any sane company will

I think most of the frustration I have seen comes from people expecting symmetry and uniformity in the vendor/package management solution. This is the same way some looking at an architecture diagram expects clean straight lines or ali
