This is fair, if WASM can do 1-2 ms cold start then that's incredible! If you have a 100 function chain w/ 100ms cold start times in between, then that's a nightmare, but for us, we're monolothic so all our cold starts a

This does have to be managed, empty Django is ~3.5s ours is <5s. Heavy/slow libraries aren't loaded in the web via settings file, but are loaded in background workers. We've found that image processing libraries and PDF ha

We use AWS Lambda as a monolithic "serverless" to run our Django stack since Lambda can now take standard containers[0]. The full environment, costs us US$100/mnth to run production b2b application. Traffic is quite light, bu

I agree. All AR/VR devices are replacing... AR/VR devices. But if you want to displace the iPhone/smartphone it has to be 1000x better, which today's tech simply can't do yet. If the glasses that I'm wearing ri

I've thought about this a lot in the context of our org. What you're describing is taking modeling -> production (minus the screen shot one). Typically a data engineer will be the one who helps bridge that gap, but that has a p

Honest question, if you're locked in to AWS why not just use the CDK? I've used Terraform and Pulumi in the past and the "platform agnostic" is only true for trivial builds. Once you get into medium sized infra you'

You're complaining to a thread that already knows this. We can complain all we want about lack of transparency and truth. But, it's from where we stand, not where we want to be. We stand in pure speculation, and cannot create fore

I'll take a stab and say most of this community isn't perfectionist but more efficiency-ists. While it's easy to lump them together, the difference in end goals tend to be absolute mastery vs maximizing use of time. But the s

My take on this sentence is that, the user doesn't care how complex the system you're working with is, how pretty or efficient the code is. All they care about is does it do what I want+expect it to do when I want it done while it
