Given I can still open and edit Word documents created 30 years ago I don't think that will be as much a problem as you suggest.

That’s because you generally can’t use foreign credit cards to top up Suica.

I like it, but don't love that it's a web app. I guess I could fork it myself, but don't particularly want to have to run a web app to browser JSON either. I wonder how easy it would be to port to Electron.

Yes, but are the connection pools in Rails & Sidekiq configured for a very large number of connections. You can probably squeeze up to 100+ out of a single process.

You might want to double-check your DB pooling numbers. Running out of DB connections can end up looking a lot like heavy CPU usage on Ruby. This bottleneck probably relates to the delivery of new messages to feeds. That's the busiest

Not all UUID versions are monotonically increasing. This article is specifically talking about V4 UUIDs which contain random values only.

You're right. But how much marketing can $44B and time buy you to replicate these network effects? There are plenty of people trying to replicate the success of the existing social networks, but they're all doing it for $10's

A service that allows for arbitrary scheduling of future events has been at the top of my wish list for AWS services for a long time. The fact this doesn't just queue up events and instead is capable of calling any of the services supp

I think he expects a large portion of the other 300m+ accounts to pay $8 too.

Medibank (private health insurer), not Medicare (public health service). :)

They can with Durable Objects, but you'll pay $12.50/million GB-s while each connection is open (which is about $93.75/million minutes). It's currently not very competitive with the likes of AWS API Gateway at $0.25&#x2F

Not true, the free tier is applied at the Organization level (i.e. the billing account), not to each individual account.

Good luck making this stick in Australia. Private entities aren't allowed to levy fines or anything that work like fines.

They probably use it in their call Centres.

One of the goals of eyesight testing fonts is to make it difficult to distinguish between certain letter shapes unless your vision is good enough to see them.

You could (I would) but you could care a lot less about it and treat it mostly as a log to use for reconciliation later if there's an issue or if you want to migrate to a different billing system. The data is going to still be availabl

I know it feels like overkill, but I’d recommend either outsourcing (even Stripe has usage-based billing if you can keep your updates under 100/s) or using something off-the-shelf like https://killbill.io . I know it seems l

I've owned every major release of MacBook Pro and recently the Apple Silicon Airs. Currently own a MacBook Pro Max 14" 64GB running in clamshell mode as a glorified desktop and a MacBook Air M2 24GB. 1. Amazing, even the Air compa

Technically Lambda polls SQS (minimum 5 pollers when used as an event source for Lambda). But you don't have to think too much about it. It's mostly important to remember when you're wondering why your mostly-empty queue is s

I find I'm even more aware of my surroundings when I drive with these safety features. When I don't have to pay as much attention to my speed, distance to the car in front, etc I get to spend more time predicting what my fellow mo
