   ORMs are language-specific, but the insight to avoid ORMs for the rest of your life because of impedance mismatch is general and deep.

   That's interesting - have you tried contacting support? I don't think this is supposed to happen. You might also have better luck using the region-specific S3 endpoint rather than the global domain name.

   You're right, I encountered this issue as well a few years ago. However, this has changed recently. S3 now offers strong consistency https://aws.amazon.com/s3/consistency/

   How about returning large API results as NDJSON (newline-delimited JSON)? Modern browsers can read the response of a network request in a streaming fashion See e.g. https://canjs.com/doc/can-ndjson-stream.html

   Once the initial S3 PUT request succeeds, the object is guaranteed to be available immediately AFAIK.

   Really enjoyed reading the post. I thought it was great that the author described the methodical investigation and incorrect hypotheses.

   I'm surprised at your surprise. What languages do you feel it's appropriate to rap in?

    Whoa, I didn't know that! This is super useful as a general-purpose tree viewer! For the record, the relevant commands are ncdu -o /tmp/files.json and ncdu -f /tmp/files.json

    My experience in Germany mirrors yours. Although you of course have the choice (not to take the test, not to act on the results), the process felt like it was leading inevitably down the path of aborting the pregnancy in case of a positive

    If you reply to this comment, I'll get a reply notification via Web Push. Blows my mind that adding a realtime feature like this through a little extension is even possible. Impressive use of MagicBell too!

    Not sure I understand your comment. Is `accumulate` a scheme function? My comment was intended to say that Clojure vectors have some operations that are performant and some that aren't. It is part of Clojure's philosophy to encour

    Wonderful little movie - just watched it. A little sad because of the nostalgia for the silent movie era. So nice that the movie is simply available on the NFB website.

    Is this a NCaaS - a notification-center as a service? That sounds similar to offerings like Pusher, that help you build one of the most complex parts of your app. Whether this is useful will depend on how flexible the system is. Is it possi

    Yeah, he's obliquely endorsing the rules, most of which — certainly the ones about infinitives, passives and negation — are moronic.

    The company I work for has 7+ open remote roles, all Clojure/Script engineers. Clojure is mind-expanding but doesn't necessarily take long to become proficient in - we've hired many developers with no prior experience who&#x2

    Yes I agree, I learned TypeScript from this book and learned modern JavaScript along the way as an extra.

    I totally agree. CloudFront is maddeningly anemic, with hacks required to do the most basic things. Nginx/Varnish configuration is bad but CloudFront is worse. I wonder how much better competitors like Cloudflare and Fastly are.
