Designing Data-Intensive Applications has taught me more than 90% of what I know about scalability. I can't recommend that book enough.

I don't understand. If they are capable of changing over time, surely they are capable of looking back on their past selves and acknowledging what was wrong with them?

I'm a bit sceptical about this because it talks very little about what happened that caused OP to get "cancelled", and an awful lot about how they came back from it. I do understand, first-hand, the trauma that comes from bei

Not to be that guy but didn't we agree about moving business all business logic into a single place, back in 2012?

This is just unnecessarily rude. The guy had explicitly mentioned about the daily ping and it's mentioned on the product doc as well - so please don't make him up as the big bad guy who says I CAN HAZ DATA

I know about zsh-autosuggestions and fzf - I wanted to ask that as a developer building something like Fig, is there a way to build the same thing with less permissions than they currently have?

by shadeslayer_ 5y ago
Is there another way to achieve what the product tries to do? Genuinely asking.

by shadeslayer_ 5y ago
I have been using zsh-autosuggestions [1] to achieve something similar, so seeing a new product that seems infinitely easier to configure and much more powerful is very.. heartening. I might not move over right this moment, but I'll be

Another takeaway from this post is the album, as a unit of music, falling out of vogue. The album name doesn't show up anywhere on the Spotify/Apple Music UI - you have to go deep into the artist pages (?) to find it. Streaming is

One of the enduring memories of bumbling through my first few months as an undergrad was coming upon a torn, well-read copy of the Dragon Book in the institute library. To date, it remains one of the best pieces of CS literature I have read

This is so sad because if you read his blog post from January 2021, he sounds so very hopeful and happy at the prospect of the immunotherapy working. It sounds like he discovered a new lease of life. Being thrown from that situation to the

Off the top of my head, my connection has only had ~8 hours of downtime over the last six months. That is around 99% uptime.

As someone from India, it is unbelievable that someone from California - an affluent state in a first-world country - has to actually pay for a 3.5Mbps connection in 2021. For context, I was paying around $11/mo for a 40Mbps connection
