The embedded device levels? Or were there levels after 6 for stockfighter? I played around with stockfighter in December/January and in July-ish. While the service was more stable in July, the lack of documented endpoints for level sel

I though Stockfighter was a cool idea, and was incredibly excited to try it when it launched. Unfortunately the site was unreliable, winning felt random, and in the end I'm not sure that I would have had faith that it was a good litmus

The post didn't discuss The backoff behavior of QUIC. For TCP, a dropped packet results in a halving of the data rate to help with assumed congestion of the network. Does QUIC act as a good network citizen? Are they experimenting with

I used to use a service like this called endjunk.com. A few years ago it shut down without warning and I found I couldn't receive emails or update my username for several services. I tried rolling my own for a while, but it was painful

I find all of the outrage over this to be completely overblown. Everyone complains that OS upgrades are too difficult and so they desperately try to avoid them. This results in running 7 year old code that is going to stop being supported i

I see technical debt differently. Technical debt is something you take on in exchange for moving faster. Maybe you skipped writing unit tests. Maybe you didn't respond to all the style feedback, or even do a code review. But at the tim

In the actual deposition, it looks like the expert actually does some calculation with the calculator. And I imagine he did the math and saw it was different from what he had stated. The lawyer deposing him isn't an "expert"
