I can imagine such a person. If rider values reliability, they would always open Uber app straight away and get a ride in 5 seconds. I don't think the argument of people switching to a cheaper service actually holds true that much. Peo

This is amazing. I think it delivers on the promise of https://n-o-d-e.net/hyperboria.html much more than Hyperboria+cjdns itself. Very excited, I expect there could be a compatibility layer with existing mesh networks whi

In these situations the organization really should get box.com subscription (or Dropbox enterprise) and have file sharing with control, auditing and org policies.

How do you know when to sell? How much time the stock market would be in all time high? No one knows. It's incredibly hard to time the market.

That's actually a very good point, sales people will try to exaggerate the capabilities of the technology to the dangerous levels... Well said.

The product in question is Rekognition, which matches photos. It would be more verifiable by naked human eye than bite marks? As long as the results are not taken as judgements, but only auxiliary tool, it would not be a concern. The articl

Afaik that was app engine is mostly like that. Cloud functions are sort of too, but only for the HTTP traffic (not the supporting infra like db etc)

The fact that MacOS/Darwin has BSD utilities instead of GNU is a common gotcha. Not a showstopper though, `brew install coreutils` will get you the tools you are used to!

IRC should surpass the notion of just a protocol and become a real product. The UX is still not user friendly. There's no standard way of doing threads. Rolling out IRC in an organisation is extremely hard. Cloud-based IRC hosting prov

To what extent? Up to days? Weeks? Months? Would you oppose daily standups?

We are too hell-bent on that unix philosophy that everything is a text, stdin, stderr and pipes are enough. It is not. We should have ways to log objects. We should have ways to pass those objects around and serialise, deserialise and inspe

One dangerous part I think investors have forgotten in this whole going-away-from-public-markets financing craze is that companies can now hold investors hostage. It's now all or nothing play in which the investors need to pour more an

I wish they would tell the story further, including how the man in taupe blazer would deliver the project and whether it would be a success or not, and what would happen past delivery.

Lighting, shadows and global illumination are still incredibly hard with voxels. And this is true for both Atomontage and Euclideon. Their demos look like really over HDR'ed.

If so much time is spend on problem definitions, wouldn't it be less time for engineers to actually build the thing? While possibly refining and reducing the scope of your product, I'd say that approach would reduce velocity (at l

Why spending $2 is necessarily bad? I could be buying advertised product that actually improves my life that I wouldn't have known about otherwise. While it's not the case all the time, there's no explicit loss to you in spen

Going forward no one would consider Kafka a suitable system for any kind of production systems. Immutable persistent data already caused issues for HIPAA compliance, but now it is virtually illegal. Using event sourcing for only foreign key

That's a fair analogy! I do think having a service like stripe for pii would make things easier. Why would we need first name and email address? As programmer I only need user ID!

So is this a package which builds a page showing a design system based on your existing CSS? Interesting, I think the landing page could explain this better. The demo link above helps a lot, I think it should be more prominent in your copy.

Getting a new smartphone is what people want. They wouldn't have an exciting thing to gift or to receive on Christmas. They would get tired of the way it looks all the time. They wouldn't be able to show it off to their friends. T

On an unrelated note, that makes me think, why facebook won't make a paid subscription version? I would dearly pay 10-20 bucks per year or whatever they are getting from me and never see ads or get my data shared with advertisers.
