The author seems to have spent the better part of a decade working professionally with Postgres. I think editorial choice, rather than ignorance, might be why they’re not mentioning more prior art.

If that’s true, they should want to evaluate all the options out there to ensure they’re not missing out. Though I think it’s more likely there’s some Googler who happen to use this service, note how the wording is “Engineers […] use our pr

Isn’t this mostly moving the namespacing problem from classes to tags and attributes? It’s not something I mind, but since the other potential solutions were dismissed as flawed for similar reasons, I’m not sure why the solution presented i

It could be a nod to a shift into ‘do more with less’. In Sweden hospitals and schools have basically lost all their administrative staff and students per class has grown. Teacher salaries might not have gone down, but expectations are much

Digging into the discussions in the repo’s issues, I found someone linking to this comparison between ULIDs and UUIDs: https://uuid.ramsey.dev/en/stable/rfc4122/version7.html In short, it seems UUIDv7 is sto

If we’re starting going down this path, what if the flour also lie and mix in an unknown quantity of sesame? Should families have to devolve into living in a feudal pocket society? I think it’s fair for the regulator to be hard on lying on

That’s an interesting aspect. I’m not sure that’d be practical, but I’m not sufficiently read up on passkeys to say for sure. I don’t think passkeys are passed automatically and I really hope they’re not available via CORS? That should limi

Yeah, it seems bad enough that Apple are seemingly encouraging developers to push their users into using passkeys without asking the user. It’ll still be the website or app that instructs the browser to create a passkey if possible, and Saf

I feel like the practical duopoly would be one thing if we were back around Vista/7 and Apple’s kittens, but the awful thing about both Microsoft and Apple these days is that they’re not happy with just selling software or hardware, th

That’s a whole new perspective for me, thank you for sharing your point of view. I am much more scared of people, cars, and buildings than anything in nature. Nature is where I go to recover, and I’d want as much of it as possible in my yar

It’s a fairly common practice to have a localized geodetic datum defined for a country. WGS84 isn’t necessarily sufficiently accurate for all purposes, continental plates drift, the ellipsoid can be adjusted to local circumstances and so fo

Wasn’t that the period when Apple were positioning themselves to get the Macs away from Intel? I’m not sure the goal was to let the iPad overtake as much as it was to get its processors ready to take over from Intel.

That’d be September 1978 – November 1979 and before then during the roaring twenties if I read this right. Maybe POTUS should declare an emergency to reduce the number of emergencies?
