I setup airflow for production at a consulting gig years ago. Airflow is an abstraction and a good abstraction. I don’t understand why these blog posts try to make it seem more complex and confusing than it actually is… Is it trying to just

How easy is it to check the results of cell annotations for mistakes? Is it easy for a person to do, and this will save them a bunch of time getting a baseline? Or could this lead to a bunch of mislabeled data?

Restic and rustic are both great. I started with restic for daily backups but switched to rustic to have a slightly more “set it and forget it” experience (the config file is great for this). If you’re setting up offsite backups rsync.net h

But in the meantime you suffer for it. How many days have you spent on webpack config? Or the package.json type property? Or yarn/pnpm/etc particulars? I have spent too many. Bun is quite nice.

The most common mistake I see is putting data fetching in the view layer. React hooks caused this because by default there’s no sensible place to fetch data. So unless you know ahead of time, any complex single page ends up with complex and

This is a silly thing to quibble over. The author made it plain what they were doing in the post. The title is a a succinct way to describe what they’re doing.

As someone who’s spent a lot of time with javascript, debugging concurrency issues is second nature. No better training than a great spaghetti ball of promise chains.

Fintechs partner with banks like evolve to do the actual banking. So when you open an account with mercury, under the hood they’re opening an bank account with a bank and sending transactions through it. There’s a lot of kyc/kyb regula

Did I miss it or nowhere did he talk about the problem he was trying to solve? Any solution can be bad at scale if it doesn’t fit your problem… unfortunately there’s no way to know without stating the problem.

This matches up with programming too. You can teach software engineering in school. But you become an expert by reading source code and seeing the many ways to solve a problem. An expert can intuit a solution because of pattern matching. An

I churned from Kagi twice before sticking around as a long term customer, because the results were better than Google. I’ll be curious if you come back to Kagi in a couple months too.
