https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38524596 is a publicly accessible URL. That’s what I meant. You’re assuming it doesn’t matter because she’s not smart enough to find it and recognize herself.

You’re picturing emergencies at home. They’re picturing an emergency at school.

Any chance of switching to Fastly? Or at least testing it? There's excellent documentation for a working setup here: https://docs.lagoon.sh/drupal/integrate-drupal-and-fastly/ I don't know how to get inv

There's a lot of room between small- to medium-sized and Reddit-sized. Drupal 9/10 scales out well and does just fine at that large (read "enterprise") size. But certainly the more read-heavy a site is, the more suited i

Drupal 8 introduced an entirely new caching system, with actually good cache invalidation. Right now if I save new content on one of my sites, it queues an invalidation request that gets sent to Varnish (which can be run either as a shutdow

It’s great for that use case, if - you host at one of the Drupal-optimized services (Amazee, Pantheon, Acquia) - you put a Varnish service like Fastly in front of the site - you use BigPipe to serve the dynamic content - you have experience

Six months is nowhere near enough time to learn the framework well enough to do anything worthwhile. It’s just enough time to get incredibly frustrated and leave for a tool that’s more appropriate for your current needs. It takes years to g

I’m pretty curious why you think Drupal shouldn’t have a command-line interface.

It wasn’t the admins who had to make the change; it was the developers. But yeah, it was a major, major change.

I’ve been writing Drupal code as my day job since 2009, and honestly I think it’s fabulous. It serves a narrow niche very well. People try to use it outside that niche, and they suffer. I feel for them. It’s not the right tool for everyone.

Right, the caching is how you get the performance. Ideally you’re behind, say, Varnish. (Like I said, it’s not a hobbyist platform anymore IMO.) There’s pretty slick cache invalidation now, so you can set up Varnish with long cache lifetime

His little startup succeeded in getting many millions of dollars of VC money poured into Drupal, and it’s actually a really good way to build a serious website now, for a particular niche. It’s not for SPAs, and it’s not for non-developer h

If you’re justifying this to yourself because you think everyone else is slacking off at home, you might want to rethink. I am not slacking off—my productivity is at least as good at home as it was in the office, even on days when I’m not a

That's not how Kissinger is pronounced. It's a soft g. Sorry to spoil your joke, but as you say it's reached the end of its natural life anyway.

I do too, except in cases where it’s being used simply as a more complicated UI for `git merge --squash` and there’s no actual “generate a diff and apply it to a different base commit” going on.

Imagine a feature branch where someone has been keeping it up to date by merging main into it regularly. Now the feature is ready to go into main. You can easily `git merge --squash` that branch into main. You can likely do the same thing m

Then you should probably look up squash “merges,” because I believe that’s your `git rebase --tip`. I use quotation marks because it’s not an actual merge. It just takes all the changes from the feature branch and stages them in the index,

I’m curious how this workflow differs from `git merge --squash`.
320.
by ksenzee 3y ago
Only metaphorically, maybe. You can squash merge in lots of cases where a rebase will fail.

GPs routinely prescribe SSRIs. Even pediatricians. At least in the US.

No, this is exactly like a receipt from the ATM. “Your bank balance is $300.00 as of 10/10/23 10:10.” That was weeks ago, so I know to ignore it. The wording can likely be improved. Maybe “You are up to date with origin/maste

I truly love the idea of single-development mixed-income housing, but I just don’t see it working in the US. Either the subsidized units are poor quality, leading to the same stigma as our current public housing, or they’re the same as the

I’m not convinced this matters. It’s very important that some things be kept easy and accessible even if you don’t do them very often. I don’t call emergency services very often, but when I do, it had better be trivially easy. I don’t spin

by ksenzee 3y ago
Very good point. “Up to date with origin/master as of 4 hours ago” would be an improvement.

Public housing can work in places where people consider themselves part of a society. A lot of Americans don’t. They see any kind of collective societal effort as a negative—something you might have to tolerate, but that you certainly don’t

Sorry, my “not necessarily” was too broadly scoped. I agree with you that “it’s either God or anything goes” is a false premise. It’s taught from the pulpit, which is why you hear it so often: people accept it without thinking it through an

Not necessarily. For me it’s a subset of “answer it yourself”: it’s a way of asking myself “what is my potential? What was I put here for? If I had a perfect parent, what would they expect of me?”
