I love the spirit of this! Like other have said, moving away from Heroku to a dedicated server that's already hosted would also be a win. Even on-demand AWS EC2 instances may be cheaper than your dynos. I'd personally still lean t

This is a common thing I've read in books and heard from my more experience co workers. My favorite current example is OpenAPI specs for building a client or generating docs. SOAP was another big thing. So was CORBA. We're really

I completely agree, this is a great talk. I can listen to Bryan and friends speak for hours. I'm not sure if he's a natural story teller or if he's learned over time, but that combined with his experience just makes for a tre

For those disappointed about limitations of the data, I assume it's because aldi.us has a minimal web presence that comes down to pretty much only weekly fliers when it comes to food pricing data (locally at least). When I was in colle

For me, the desktop app always sucked (but it was still more convenient that going to my phone). The TOTP would often get completely out of sync unless I backed out of an app's section and went back in, and then waiting for the TOTP to

As some of the sibling comments have said, owning a home can be great if it's over a certain period of time and you know what you want, kind of like capacity planning. If you don't know what you need or you're not sure you&#x

> 23 billon that AWS users pissed away. While I agree that running your own hardware can be _seriously_ cheaper, this is like saying that renting is a waste of money and everyone should purchase a home. Capacity planning isn't easy

> Ideally, it should be introduced after lambdas Like syntactic sugar over `func`? Since func can already be anonymous and passed around just fine, I don't expect them to add additional syntax for functions.

FWIW, the RAM and storage is completely standard and replaceable. Something that most laptops don't offer anymore unfortunately (plenty of decent ones still do though).

The move to USB C as a generic DC power standard is fantastic, at least as a consumer. I'm 100% on the USB C bandwagon. Even my coffee scale and room temperature gauge charge through USB C. Going from the days of eight different poorly

Linq does this [0], maybe partially because it's SQL-like but built for working with enumerables instead so they could do what they wanted. One other quirk of SQL ordering that always gets me is that SET comes before WHERE in UPDATE. I
