I'm surprised the sibling comments have had a good experience. I currently drive a former rental and there were so many issues early on, especially with the transmission. Anecdotally my friends have had similar experiences with ex rent

It's very well done and absolutely deserves that placement!

This has proven true for a while now. My favorite example is Slack. Slack is solid software, but why do we need upwards of 300MB of memory usage to send text and a couple images. I know why, but it does seem like an unreasonable usage. Here

Is that the one that's $20 a month and gives access to GPT 4? I signed up on Friday.

Just spit balling here: some sites like Twitter have their own emoji sets and I wonder if they're saying that they don't do that and instead rely on the OS's normal rendering of emojis.

Came here to post this. Great book and it's got so much heart. Brian is obviously a great writer and has a lot of great stories about the Bell Labs days. Early UNIX just seems like a dream to have been around. It's a very human fo

Looking at the No Starch Press book: 1616 pages and 88 chapters. Something tells me that I don't know TCP/IP as well as I thought I did...

The last two-ish years have been insane for Python performance. Something clicked with the core team and they obviously made this a serious goal of theirs and the last few years have been incredible to see.

Pretty much any queue and a compute will do. SQS paired with lambda an event bridge (I forget if that's the service to trigger the lambda or not) would be solid. I lean towards compute that's a bit easier to run in different setti

For sure, I just found it to be an interesting lens to view that though.

Ah, cost is the amount to produce and price is the amount to consume then? I never actively tagged those ideas with distinct words, but I appreciate the insight.

I get the cost/value != price, but what's the difference between cost and price?

For a 10 year bet, that's a fair point. Tangentially, over the course of an individual investor's working years, I think this shows that the S&P 500 is pretty good, if paired with appropriate bond allocation as your move towar

"Common sense" can be subjective here, but Bogle was preaching index funds for quite some time leading up to this. Vanguard and other low cost index providers were doing well, but it is true that it's increased quite a bit ov

The actual blog post announcing this also has an epub! This looks very thorough and an interesting Kindle read. https://jamesg.blog/2024/01/03/software-technical-writing/

I may be wrong, but Kindle samples are often much shorter than 50 pages in my experience. Usually too short for me to make a choice as to whether I want to read the book or not.

I envy the consistency you have to seemingly get a large group of you folks regularly. Any tips that make it possible for y'all to schedule this?

I've been using FireFox for about 4.5 years now, but I have to have Chrome installed for a few reasons unfortunately. - Some websites still will just not work in FireFox. It's not super common anymore, but if I sense something is

Thank you so much for sharing this! I've been in Rhode Island for a few years and never heard of this. I'll absolutely be making it to their next open house.

Yeah, it's a fairly new (few years) email client that some people swear by. I believe they have a focus on being keyboard oriented.

I work on an ETL service that interacts with a good few, semi diverse third party systems. We organize these by individual jobs that get run and a job will process certain types of data and spawn different sub jobs in specific situations. W

This is great, good on this kid. Networking was a mystery to me until I was like 18 so I missed out on some good years of self hosting. If I could go back, I'd buy a book on basic networking at 14 with some birthday money. That would b

Neat feature. I assume is AWS Polly under the hood. This caught my eye though: > Authors can set a list price between $3.99 and $14.99 and will receive a 40% royalty Do they mean you get 40% of the work you created and they ran their mod

Nope, I'm with you. Based on the quick blurb about what the vuln way, $1337 is an absolutely steal for Google. Paying for a team or outside pentesters to attempt to find this would be _way_ more expensive.

I don't think it's pedantic to correct a number that is sixty times off. That's absurd. If they said 800k, then sure. 40 million is absurdly off and should be commented about to prevent others from running with that absurdity

So many books just pad with anecdotes. If I could get a "just the important anecdotes" version of a book, I absolutely would. Few isolated concepts that a single book is tackling (that isn't specifically for a specialized fie
