I’m pretty sure this is the first time I’ve seen the word “localize” used to refer to spatial location and not cultural/linguistic locale. Totally makes sense but definitely threw me off when first reading the headline. :)

Are there tools for auto converting mongo queries to postgres’ query format? The mongo drivers are Apache licensed so in theory someone could use them as the basis for a driver that speaks to postgres instead, right? I see tools like that

I really wish they had just said that the tax is 15% on your first $1m in sales and 30% on all sales after each year. Correct me if I’m wrong, but with the current plan I can actually _lose_ money year over year around the $1m mark. For exa

Quite possibly all those `Drawable.paths` sets are going to be stack allocated as long as your renderer isn’t retaining any references to them.

What if the game itself was 100% vanilla and all the dead man’s switch setup was done through a website using your iCloud login? Then instead of the help button the user could configure a “safe word” that when entered triggers the notifica

I worked on a service that had this exact issue; actually it was worse because it was a signed integer so rolled over in half the time. Even more insidious, we never hit the issue until months into production because we had a pretty consist

Has Apple ever really pursued being an ISP? I feel like competing with bundled cable Internet at least in the US is going to be the main thing holding back potential cord cutters sometime soon. I don’t have cable but still pay Cox $100 for

Supporting `MAXSIZE` as well as `MAXLEN` on `XADD` would also handle a nice Kafka feature (the ability to define your log size in either number of messages or size on disk). Something like: `XADD MAXSIZE ~ 2147484000 * foo bar` to cap the s
