Which users do you think are going to intentionally utilize the captcha-enabled manual-labor-required platforms to do these things (book/reserve/order something) when there’s a faster and easier choice available? Assuming it actua

As this is backed by RocksDB, does that mean it’s disk-based? I’ve been looking for a way to utilize Redis but with hot (memory) and warm (nvme disk) mechanisms to boost my capacity affordably.

LLMs have already plateaued in knowledge imo. There’s far less reason for humans to contribute code examples, answer questions, work on open-source projects, or even produce content knowing it’ll immediately be slurped up and resold. Web de

Robots.txt is completely irrelevant. TOU/TOS are also irrelevant unless you restrict access to only those who have agreed to terms.

Because that was the central point in the original whitepaper [1]: Hadoop is slow because it’s disk-only where Spark uses memory and caching to speed things up. I understand Spark isn’t 100% in-memory the way say Redis is, but it was still

Absolutely agree. Spark is the same garbage as Hadoop but in-memory.

Nah that’d be a national security crisis. But the presence of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PRISM well over 10 years ago should be sufficient.

It’s more about the comments than the front page. Most HNers don’t bother clicking links and just read top of the fold comments.

HN may survive if upvote/downvotes are removed, but until then it will continue to be astroturfed and manipulated heavily to push narratives and subconsciously teach the startup/hacker community which opinions are favored and disf

Nobody is suggesting PHP beats compiled. We’re arguing with you about your utter lack of expertise in the language, knowledge of the ecosystem and “production-ready” status of the many options, and your overall coding ability when it comes

How have you worked with PHP for 15 years and have absolutely no idea how it works or even baseline performance metrics.

tbh I'm surprised stackexchange still has employees. I thought all that value was already extracted by LLM scrapers and they're well on their way to becoming another quora.

Andy's ego is far too big to actually run a company and his focus is entirely on vanity metrics. You can see it in these database reviews where he spends substantial time pining over how much money CompanyX raised and shitting on the b

Those are different products priced the same to all users. I genuinely don’t understand how this is even a debate. Is AWS price gouging? Absolutely. But that’s not what price discrimination is.
