Performance of those AWS instances comes nowhere close despite the specs.

Apparently they are more like (temporary) extensions of the main building than separate DCs.

The cladding was metal so very unlikely it contributed to the fire spreading.

Well, not having managed backups is obviously part of choosing to go bare-metal. They do have triple-redundancy backups in their cloud offerings. Nobody to blame but yourself. Also, if you’re hosting clients’ static websites, you were burni

You went right over the main point - there was nothing “innovative” in risking a launch under bad weather. The exact same launch would happen later. Any rationalization of “somebody has to take the risks the wimpy engineers won’t” is pure b

Not any application, the operation is “convert this thing i am dragging into text” for which the result is obvious.

The parent comment was complaining about that being impossible in Linux before the conversation switched to Mac. Which is it? Also, nothing to memorize about copy & paste or drag & drop. I would say you’re used to Linux GUIs not do

Hosting the videos is definitely an issue. The cost for distributing a single FHD video with a million views is staggering. YT benefits from Google infrastructure to do it “for free”.

The difference is you don’t need 20 years of training and multiple post-doc diplomas to join the army. Every loss there is insanely expensive in terms of human capital.

I think you’re being very, very generous in your interpretation of roles. You don’t just risk “innovating” when human lives are at stake, and in this case the danger was very well known: the engineers knew exactly what, and how, it could fa

Is it though? The company demoted him and his career was only saved by direct intervention from the congress.

Scrolling is not the smoothest, and that’s on the latest iPhone, but overall pretty good. I can see it working if it becomes as responsive as web / native.

That’s simply not possible unless you mangled it with a broken extension. Sublime has its own native rendered with much, much lower latency.

You’re not looking at the right processes. The real work happens in “VS Code helper” child processes which take at least 500MB total, usually more. That memory is not sitting idle either, it means your CPU is churning a lot more, and its no

Your points are in stark contrast to the reality of the article. The Rust code produced is the one you have to be “on your toes” with due to unnecessary complexity, while Zig, despite the compile time features, is completely straightforward

You’re the HN audience.

Hmm I really don’t think so. You might be thinking of tech people, not the general public.

Probably not the best word for it, but it’s clear he is emphasizing the fact he owns both machines, and is reporting first-hand experience and not just blurting out an “informed opinion”.

Unsplashed was initially a hand-picked collection, and as far as I know submission is now heavily curated (and probably checked with reverse image search).

Chrome used to have a local socket API when chrome apps were still a thing.

Both the App Store and Microsoft Store deal with installs and updates, no need for custom wrappers. Not sure about Linux.

A node OS X build is 13mb, 20mb on Linux.

I don’t understand this kind of question. Obviously you need some statistical measure to compare safety, and incidents per mile (or vehicle years, or hours driven) is an accurate way to estimate accident rates. All we care about is that on

The ratio of city vs highway accidents is 2.3 to 1. At worse the Tesla number is cut in half.

That’s where the “per mile” part comes in.

These cars have driven about 4 billion miles with AP on, only six confirmed AP fatalities total since 2016. If it was such a hazard you’d expect to see hundreds or thousands of serious incidents.

Nothing better than A/B testing within the same population, right? > In the 4th quarter, we registered one accident for every 3.45 million miles driven in which drivers had Autopilot engaged. For those driving without Autopilot but
