They are good in some areas, but certainly not good in others. Eg when it comes to how aws codebuild/deploy and how ECS service/instance/task roles interact. It seems AWS teams are very vertical, leading to more complex cross

I don't see how microservices necessarily lead to what you call micro level permissions. If anything it's IAAS/PAAS and the inherent requirements that springs from that, to explicitly manage access that has started to drive t

In many areas you can earn significantly without have tenants, if you can wait a decade to get paid. Having tenants is chore, and might make it impossible to sell the property for a different use. Market economy works fairly well as to get

Europe is quite densely populated in some areas, and insect populations in these areas have dropped to a fraction of past numbers in some areas, over only a few decades. It's quite reasonable to try to do something about it, as we'

I have some trouble understanding what people mean by scalable today, especially why people seem to have to run entirely event driven, and not mostly on the socket read/write edges? Soon to be almost 20 years ago we pushed >10k mess

I know I read about some trading firm(s) doing that, but I don't know which, if it was even stated. Whomever they were, they were rotating pre-warmed jvm images with disabled GC, and were reaching quite respectable latency figures. To

Rust is really nice, I like it a lot. It's probably also one of the easier languages to write performant code with reasonable latencies in most cases, almost all. However, automatic resource freeing/deallocation can still bite you

It's true that there's magnesium in everything, but the definition of half decent diet becomes rather strange in the light of a recommended intake for adults. Men are recommended a bit over 400 mg magnesium per day. Black beans ar

If you want companies to follow rules, history has shown that only steep fines, or jailing executives work. Where the money goes isn't that important, it's a fine, and it's intent is to be big enough that following laws is ch

If their chart is correct, the 30cm mirror show a 20db improvement in SNR at 200Hz compared to 20cm, same curve but 20db lower gain. That is an absolute crazy scaling, I'm not entirely sure how that's possible, though I have a sus

I see this as only another example of how markets with too little, or the wrong kind of regulation so easily creates anti consumer, or anti environment, etc behavior. ... Which makes total sense from a market efficiency point of view, at le

It's even faster (at least on OSX) if you can invoke it correctly, which at least 2 years ago was almost impossible. If you manage to supply exactly the packages (transitively), and not a wildcard more, it would avoid recompiling the s

The compiler is not doing any sophisticated analysis at all, it can inline since the language is designed to be easy and fast to compile, but in my opinion at the expense of a little too much. I went through most of the compiler about two y

One could claim that actually the main "argument", which isn't really much an argument, is that the government could not legally order a lockdown. Or, well, they could still order it. But since it would have been illegal, it
