Has anyone been able to reproduce this "Google Research" that is so often quoted? They have numbers related to conversion too. I know I'm sounding doubtful but bringing response time down a second or so isn't a magic pot

This was my experience as well. When Fresh dropped a few weeks/months ago, I thought, "oh neat, islands architecture, that's right up my alley". I decided just to blindly fool around with it one weekend. I immediately wa

Crystal is just awesome. I doubt I'll have a chance to use it in a real app any time soon... but I've kept my eye on it for the past few years.

This was my experience while living in Florida. Hurricane/Flood risks made it so there was no "shopping around". I had a house (built in the mid-60s) with a ton of tree cover. There was basically one company who'd even t

I've heard from friends in the Gainesville area (GRU) that their bills have been in the 800 - 1100 range!!! Before I moved in 2010, I had a almost 500 bill and even that was just insane. When I look at the population of that area, I as

Nah, there are plenty of cities with high LDS populations north of SLC. Bountiful, Centerville, Kaysville are like in the 80-90% ranges. It's when you get into Layton with Hill Air Force Base and Ogden where the population seems to dwi

Really, all the skills of Terraform will apply. LocalStack's docs should be able to get you started: https://docs.localstack.cloud/integrations/terraform/

LocalStack is a third party that has a free and paid version of their product. I'm certainly NOT against anyone trying to make a living off of their own hard work but, Google provides their emulator free of charge. Supposedly this can

I used LocalStack quite a bit at my last gig. It sure is nice to be able to use Terraform to spin up the same infra on my laptop, and test against that. It reduced the number of developer sandboxes we needed to have in AWS. I sure do wish A

I got pretty used to using Mutt back in the day. I was pulling my email from my ISP via IMAP, running Procmail on it and putting it into maildirs. Somewhere along the lines I got really lazy and Gmail became "good enough". I will

I _might_ be able to find comparable salary, but I sure won't find the other benefits of working for my employer. The 401k match, the on site clinic with a doctor that I really like, etc... those things do add up.

The whole S3 sleep fiasco is the stuff of nightmares. I have a gen 6 X1 Carbon too and I've gotten it sleeping very well. I also have a Dell XPS 15 that I love but... it's been 2 years since it was brand new and it's still st

I don't mind being on call at my current place. I'm an app owner so I absolutely am the right person to call if things really get out of control. (So I don't even mind being in the escalation list if I'm NOT on call). Wh

Hey yeah, that's entirely your call. If you and your team agree on it, I'm very happy to hear it increases your quality of life. Where I start to drift is when I see it included on any project because "everyone's using i

Please don't assume my opinion. AngularJS (not Angular) was a bad abstraction. Many years later, we can all see it. It's so bad that the core members abandoned it to create Angular - which, many still dislike in the front-end comm

I did use Tailwind. I read the book as well, just to really be sure I wasn't missing something. I hear the cries of "Tailwind fixed so much of my hatred for CSS" all over Reddit/HN/Twitter/etc and I really don&

Using the same tool for prod building is really a value-add. I'd love to seem them get there. I realize though that there's a fundamental difference in dev mode vs prod bundles. In dev, Vite is emitting 25-50 or so JS scripts. In

The primitives on which this is built are cool. Fastify and Vite are two projects I love. The moment I see TailwindCSS added as an opinionated default, I nope right out. Tailwind is one hype-train I can't wait to see run out of steam.

Well, you survived using Visual Source Safe. (I've lost so much hard work with that tool). I worked on stuff one generation before C#. Visual FoxPro was my money maker for awhile.

I stuck with Vim for a long time. I had friends that made the jump and honestly, around version 0.4.3, it still didn't seem to offer anything I cared about. So I stuck with my decade old .vimrc. I had started to get into CoC stuff, and

For me, I'll say "never ending-ly" deep. I've been hacking on Vim for the last 20ish years. First plain old Vim, and in the last 3 years, NeoVim. Even this morning I started by switching out VSnips (snippet manager) for

Real humans viewing comments is probably one of the most important things. HN has good moderation when things get personal. (I am admittedly the recipient of one of these moderations) HN tends to keep things professional - but can dip into

I'm not a huge Go fan, but I do have to give it a lot of credit at its very linear learning curve. You get a few basic concepts, and you're pretty much good to write a great many things. It can really frustrate you if you've

I've done this. First I did pure BSPWM, then pure i3. Frankly, it's just too light for me. I spent so much time having to handle all these one-off scenarios like, hot-plugging multiple monitors, bluetooth, audio volume (with switc

Years ago when I worked on a team of folks with similar music tastes, I'd put the album link in PRs for feature branches. Just a way of saying, "this week, while working on this feature, I was listening to this". It was just

Interesting that the authors chose to commit their .vscode directory... given that this project was donated licenses by JetBrains. Maybe it's just a convenience thing. On another tangent, I love seeing what music the authors were liste
