The author has been burned by this in the past many times. You try to include people who say they want to help.. but when alignment is off it winds up just hurting the project. I've encountered this with dozens of contributors myself.

What a steal for the folks who managed to time this, likely didn't help anyone who actually would have meaningfully benefitted from this.

A hot take is defined as "a quickly produced, strongly worded, and often deliberately provocative or sensational opinion or reaction (as in response to current news)" So you can't really do a hot take on a personal experience

This is a hot take on America when the same problem is replicated globally.

The only reason the state is stepping in is because the municipalities are overreaching on their authority over property owners. The state isn't taking local control away, it's releasing control to a more local level, the individu

Failed calculus one in my first year, mostly because it was at 7am. I'd make it to class and then promptly fall asleep during the lecture. I didn't register for anything earlier then 9am after that, things got better from there.

A project I started about a year ago is PHP/Symfony/MySQL/React. It'll run on any modern lamp server so I've put it on a shared host I already had running for another customer. I'm going to deploy it on aws far

I like the special page suggestion. Humanizing the software is a great way to get people to pay for it if they have the means. And if they don't, then you're doing some good in the world (hopefully) by giving it away. Maybe at som

Twilio managed to convince everyone that SMS based auth was a good idea but it's always been a bad idea. Drop twilio and go back to using passwords and use a different 2fa method.

First impression, the landing page renders quite wrong on my phone. Viewport is too wide and I'm able to scroll left/right. Got some work to do on the running anywhere part I guess. Or maybe that's just the landing page. Eith

This isn't the problem, it would actually make this problem worse. The issue here is long-term device support which google is negligent about.. take away their vendor lock in and the whole platform stops making financial sense at any l

It's fine. There's also still a lot of tinkering you have to do to fully get the Linux experience. There's way too many applications out there still that may require you to drop into a terminal to get them working.

Yeah exactly, it's a nice slow process that wouldn't piss people off by having too much rapid change.

Could probably tip weighting to create unnecessary indexes in some cases. Really depends on how automatic the index creation is, could reek with potential exploits.

The best comment is on the page itself, "DBAs don’t like the DB server doing things that they didn’t expect." Imagine how much less predictable your database becomes when it's trying to be "smart". I wouldn't w

Try renaming the title of this to "The End of Testing", does it still make sense? I didn't think so.

Crypto is more akin to a fundraising strategy then a specific technology. It's like calling a company "tech" and hoping that gets you more dollar signs. A use case like Helium sounds useful, but using a Blockchain doesn'
