I'm not sad about it, turned out really well for me. I believe the compelling part of the current offering is the schema management features. We started building these when I was there. I don't know to what degree the alerting par

Read maybe not, but I was there if you are curious about anything. I was there during the transition period. Originally joined to work on the Meteor hosting platform that was called Galaxy. Handled integration of Meteor APM (which was an ac

You can use direct metal laser sintering on most powered steels, no need to use Inconel. The reason it's often used with Inconel are the parts you want to make from Inconel are difficult shapes to cast and milling Inconel sucks, eats t

I didn't. Before Tanka we had built our own Jsonnet based system that shelled out to kubectl apply, we also had our own Jsonnet libraries. When I started using Tanka I picked up the version of the ksonnet k8s lib that is managed by Gra

What do they want to work with then? nginx is solid, easy to configure, good docs and does -exactly- what it says on the tin.

Workers has a few persistent options. KV is the obvious one but Durable Objects themselves have interesting persistence properties. There is a sqlite DB service called D1 landing and there is an object service called R2 which is is actually

If you are going down the k8s path and want to learn both a cool config language and make it easier to be able to deploy abitrary things in a more consistent way I suggest checking out Jsonnet and Tanka. This combination allows me to make u

Just started using Oracle Cloud Container Engine. Deploying all my side projects for free on ARM boxes, feels good man. Previously I was self-hosted on a colo box I have using a PaaS I used to work on called Flynn - but it's about time

a16z and Sequoia deserve their losses. They both went all-in on this crypto bullshit in their latest funds and convinced otherwise healthy companies to pivot into it also. Their returns for these latest funds will be decimated and I couldn&

It would be really interesting to see what his attempts with aircraft amounted to. Propeller tip induced turbulence is a non-trivial portion of what makes general aviation (GA) very loud. If we could make the aircraft less loud without sign

That price was for essentially CNC milled prototypes, I imagine if they cast them they would be a fraction of that price.

It's fine for streaming, i.e Spark and friends. I generally define streaming as the success of each individual message is entirely uniform, i.e the system can either process messages or it cannot. If this holds none of Kafkas drawbacks

It's really not. It's a distributed log. Because it's really a log and it's partitioned it has a whole host of issues that make it a very poor messaging system like hot partions, head of line blocking etc. If what you wa

If you want to do writes without a ton of amplification on PG this is the only way right now. Eventually maybe PostgreSQL will get a second storage engine that uses an undo log instead, like the somewhat stalled zheap effort for instance. T

You are missing the forest for the trees. The point is that the ability to maintain the peg is the only important value of a stablecoin, if this is brought into question it will be tested. Once it is tested it will either hold, thus 1 or fa

I don't want a server side Javascript framework, the whole reason I stick with server side rendering is to avoid Javascript/Typescript/hellscape.

I got bitten by this also. I registered a .dev domain thinking the ~$200 price tag was one-time only during the initial bidding phase when the registrar was opening. However it turns out that is a yearly renewal. I think it's a bit scu

Prices are fixed at the registrar level. I own a .dev domain and it's $200/yr even if I transfer it to Namecheap.

No mention of a drone from any of the actually trustworthy sources. The sad reality of this incident is that it was likely just a result of poor vertical separation, either due to badly planned flight paths or lack of preparation, more like

I agree with almost all of your post. However I would caution against underestimating Xi. One doesn't bubble up to the head of the CCP without being an incredibly savvy political operator. It's non-nonsensical to imply that is pos
