   I still don't understand why not everyone uses diagrams as code. The implications of having an easy tool to document and express ideas in a visual way and have it all up to date are enormous.

   Don't tell me you wouldn't like the web to be, for a couple of hours a day, as it was back then.

   I find commit messages have more value when they don't just repeat what you can see by looking at a diff but when they explain the reasons behind.

   Maybe because I don't understand modern CSS and part of the most new HTML markup, but I kinda enjoy reading this type of source code.

   Well, I lived in Italy for 10 years. Going to Rome from time to time wasn't that hard. Now I live in Spain and I continue to fly to Rome now and then. In Europe, distances are easy to overcome.

   It doesn't matter how many times I see it, every time I go to Rome and find myself in front of the Pantheon, I get overwhelmed by it.

    Yes, they have been talking about this for a while. I don't know if this is a feature you can switch off. If there is, and it's used massively, they might rethink it, else, just get used to it.

    As a non US citizen I tend not to comment about Trump but it's true that from the outside it's a hard not to be in awe and fear when you look at him and the number of people that follows him.

    I'm also an old hardcore user of xfce (xubuntu) but I can't live without https://ulauncher.io/ or similar projects.

    Please, stop this nonsense. The reasons to hate or love PHP have nothing to do with old blog posts. I'm open to discuss pros and cons but over the value it might bring, or not, to an organization and its natural limitations or features

    Am I the only one that when an article is about something I want to know more, I quickly drop it and go to Wikipedia instead?

    Weirdly enough, this is what happens in mobile too but not in desktop, for reasons that are unknown to me.

    This is an honest question from someone who didn't use nor install Thunderbird for over a decade. Is it better than Google calendar? I mean, am I missing a lot by using the Google apps as they are from a browser? I hope I am, to be ho

    Interesting concept! My experience is that it doesn't matter how smart a TV is when you buy it, it eventually become dumber than most, mostly because hardware upgrades in TVs is not a concept and lack of software upgrade. For this reas

    I still don't understand how to justify to spend almost 1000€ for a phone. I personally never spend more than 170-200€. Is it the quality of the camera? What am I not seeing?

    I don't know what this project is about. I just remained mesmerized by the look of the website. It is exactly as I would have designed (which at the time it was also coded) in 1996. I love it!!!

    It looks to me like a bad architected solution... If you have a background job to update data, there is no need to do any TTL. If we're speaking about currency exchange, you might prefer to store a transactional history of exchanges, t

    Surely unrelated but I remember being 15 (30 years ago) and being an electric guitar player with modest or no economic resources. I'm not saying that I celebrated the moment when one of my wires or jacks broke, but it felt great fixing

    Also, it's not true that you need a database to run Kong. You can make it run with a declarative config.

    Lua doesn't make it easy to create your own plugins at all. Kong guys themselves tried to offer a good use experience for this but failed more than once.

    I share your concern about managing solutions. I only know AWS API gateway but I can tell you the features it offers are very limited compare to Foss solutions

    Anybody has any idea about how this compares to Kong (what I've been using for years)?

    It's a VM built-in feature at ingestion time. In case two independent Prometheus instances send the same metric within the same time interval, only the first one will be stored. https://docs.victoriametrics.com/Single-s
