Agreed, with a counterpoint: Text is efficient at transmitting data. If I want to describe a concept or an event, text is king. However, media is more efficient at transmitting sentiment. It will take you far more than 4000 bytes of text to

This is really helpful! I haven't started using EJS because the internal gotchas and problems always worried me.

Peter Gregory might've had a point. Seriously though, this is amazing - the sound must be insane.

You're right that this example is better solved without mutexes, but it's good that the article is introducing the concept to NodeJS devs who may not be used to it. Heck, I used mutexes extensively for years in C code and even I d

I'd like to thank you for helping me understand what non-techies must feel listening to me talk sometimes, with that penultimate sentence. I understood none of it, but I know it has deep meaning and I respect it.

I presume some of these things are due to accessibility, but Amazon's site is near impossible to navigate even with 20/20 vision and all my faculties. I'm not advocating for familiarity, but for predictability. It's not

Thanks! It's amazing what you can get done with optimization vs horizontal scaling. What would you say are the current failure modes? Say for a t3a.nano, what combination of payload size/queue length/rps/other parameters

Great work guys, love what you're building at Supabase! Did you run any loadtests that stressed the system enough to start dropping/failing requests? I'm wondering where that threshold is.

I feel like AWS and the massive amounts of credit they give out just for asking has only made this worse. Don't get me wrong - I have been a beneficiary of their startup programs, and it's amazing for companies not to worry about

Don't see IB mentioned often here! As an IB survivor, happy to help with CS or Physics if you run into any trouble.

I've responded to a subcomment below explaining why "emails from politicians must be leakable" is not a good argument against the author's case. That said, I think this would be problematic on some levels not being consi

I think you're pointing out the problem already. Email and associated protocols apply to everyone, public-individual or private. The same technology works whether you're a politician or an ex-girlfriend. I also agree with your par

Modern microwaves also have resettable fuses and protection for the magentron overloading. Not suggesting you run it empty, but it's less of an issue now.

Was just about to post this video. I think some of the su comments suggesting AI/ML or IoT seem to miss his point: in a lot of cases, good old fashioned individual problem solving expressed as decision trees and lookup tables can do wo

I feel like functional converting spaces like this are the future, or will have a huge part in it. As a species, we seem to love to congregate and squeeze ourselves together, which means we'll always have high population density settle

I've had a lot of what you're describing, down to the exact events. What worked for me was no trick, just deciding to lean into social interaction more and more. When I needed to I would remind myself that more good than bad has c

This is a great concept, especially the link tracking. One of my early research papers was about a tab reorganisation UI that tracked the links you clicked to reorganise your tabs to follow your train of thought. In most cases, the flat org

I'm sorry I don't mean to be rude. But it would certainly be a better conversation if you stated your own opinion rather than trying to explain others'. How does one know you don't implicitly agree?
