That was my biggest gripe with it - at least back in the day. Back then it really felt like MySQL vs Postgres was a trade-off between 'easy but no guarantees on data integrity' and 'correct but operationally harder to manage&

Would tend to agree. There is sometimes another view of a successful business: find an opportunity, execute well, maybe generate $10-30m ARR with a small team over a 5 year horizon. For a lot of folks, that might look like 'success&#x2

I must be missing why you think they're implied strings - I don't see that in the spec. What I do see is: "Strings can also be delimited with a single quote character which allows for a string to be either "abc" or

I'm not following: ` { array: [string1 string2 "true" true True TRUE yes y] } ` Doesn't look like a valid SEN or JSON. The `y` `yes`, `True`, TRUE` aren't valid keywords/variables/consts and `stri

It does and most people that used Nomad were very positive about it. But with the turn that Hashicorp have taken I'm not sure that it now stands much of a chance.

Interesting the article jumps straight from REST to GraphQL and forgets Falcor[0] - Netflix's alternative vision for federated services. For a while it looked like it might be a contender to GraphQL but it never really seemed to take o

Oh nice!! I will certainly try this out. Much of my work these days is Java (Kotlin), C# and Python so a good serialization framework is always helpful.

I wonder how this compares with Microstream One which looked to have quite slick serialisation capabilities

I think the undertone of your comment says a lot - corporations that feel the need to MITM all traffic tend to not trust their employees (from my experience dealing with this area) - either their competence or their work ethic. All round, f

Up until a few months ago the HN crowd loved Cloudflare. How sentiment has changed in such a short period. My guess would be their weird ‘site protection’ stuff is burning too many people and negatively impacting their reputation.

> people who willingly violate laws are more reckless That's a blanket assertion - surely it would depend on the law being violated and how it is violated. What if a law was unjust? What if a law was designed to be violated? Are fre

There's no study I've seen that says that is true. Especially in a society where speed limits are increasingly NOT being set for road safety reasons but for political ones. Take for instance, Wales' 'blanket' 20mph

I’ve read a fair few comments on a UK EV forum where insurers were declining to offer renewal quotes for people that claimed to have no claims and no points on their license. As to your point about RRP.. £45k isn’t cheap but it doesn’t mean

Yea exactly - Python for training, Java/.NET for inference at production. I looked at approaches like GRPC and things but my case is a bit more time-sensitive and the latency added by going over a network layer was too much. For now I&

I need the opposite - JAX to ONNX

by jarym 3y ago
Now if only it supported ONNX export or was cross-platform so I could run it from Java and .NET land
142.
by jarym 3y ago
This looks interesting - I use OONX to call my PyTorch models from .NET but so far it’s meant I’ve not been able to test out JAX based libraries since they don’t have ONNX export and it has also meant I had to write C# boilerplate code to p

Do you recall which AWS services are like this? Thinking I better check a few things!

Thanks so much - this sort of info absolutely should be in the docs (and easy to find)

One thing I don’t fully understand is whether data is cached locally or whether I would have to handle that myself (for example if I have to read a configuration file)? And if it is cached, how can I control how often it refreshes?

I’ve been using Civo for a while to get round some of the GCP costs (which are as bad as AWS for indie devs). So far no complaints and I like that it feels faster than GCP.
