Fair, the ones that let you run containers directly like Cloud Run etc are fairly reasonable and approximate the k8s experience. I think by going non-k8s you miss out on some of the key benefits though like standardized API and more portabi

Main issues (non-exhaustive) with Typescript are: 1. Type checking is slow (this problem scales with the size of your project also which sucks) 2. Lack of proper build system ecosystem (as compared to Maven/Gradle/etc) 3. Ecosyste

Because the impact on your code by going with a serverless platform. Generally speaking if it's the platform you have you will shoehorn the shape of your code into a serverless shape bucket even if it has no business looking like that.

Startups spend innovation tokens very poorly. Progamming languages, hosting platforms and non-standard databases aren't ideal places to spend such tokens. For most apps what you want is JVM or .NET, PostgreSQL or MySQL or SQL Server, k

So they didn't try remove it from NY Post... they just removed links to NY Post... That isn't moderating the NY Post or attempting to extend their moderation policies beyond the border of their own systems.

Can you clarify what you mean about them attempting to apply their moderation policies to another website then? The rest of the context makes this appear as if you mean the NY Post...

Considering David Cutler was instrumental in both VMS on the VAX and then eventually Windows NT this isn't so much a rip off as a continuation.

I recently did a Kotlin project using Bazel and it wasn't perfect but it was definitely serviceable. One thing was that while iterating on the build was painful compared to Gradle with Kotlin script it did have very nice performance in

So does this mean we are getting AVIF or WebP or both? It's not clear to me which is the "blessed" format out of these. HEIC is ofcourse there but proprietary.

Yeah vacuum raptor will have higher thrust (naturally), so it is substantially more powerful. However that isn't the most important factor, it's that the thrust/weight ratio is so much better.

They are, they just need a hell of a lot of them to a) finish testing Starship + Super Heavy b) build a giant fleet of both and have replacement engines available for them.

Which is actually even more impressive as the raptor also produces a greater amount of thrust. So not only are you getting ~90x as many engines/year you are also getting a similar amount of thrust but at half the weight, likely meaning
