Oddly, I get told that a lot.

Planned downtime means only one thing: you have an atomic update, that needs some downtime. It doesn't inform you that the steps are "precarious" vs. "predictable" or that you have have or don't have quick way

I have to point out, it seems, that you don't change your database schema "multiple times a day". Nor is every database schema linked to downtime (especially if you follow service/module orientation with distinct aggrega

Unfortunately "it's CURRENT_YEAR" and "downtime means you're poorly designed" are very poor, circular arguments. The only thing you said back which I can trace back to an objective problem is that you don'

Yes, it's a smaller problem to lose even all your ransom money, than to be physically captured and put in jail for decades. Can't we just agree on that? Also "fairly trivially traced" can be naive. Here's one scenar

You don't have to pick bitcoin personally, obviously. Yes, after that you have to launder it, but that's a smaller problem comparatively.

As far as I know Mozilla is not a foundation for charity towards unemployed developers. So their goal is not finding work for their existing employees, their goal is improving the browser in meaningful ways. They're free to lay off and

The fact the author was kidding by writing "you can't have (planned) downtime" in itself shows everything has downtime. So if your app can have downtime, why not have some planned downtime as well? Oh the users can't tak

I see this tool as peak micro-intelligence and macro-stupidity of the whole web dev community. The tool itself is very interesting, and congrats to the authors. But needing this tool shows that in general we have no fucking clue what we&#x2

Still, I can witness myself if I haven't slept well not only my ability to figure out complex programming code suffers, but the mere ability to type fast without a ton of typos. Otherwise I agree after sleep, what we learn seems more r

Imagine walking around a pyramid and you find a power plug. You plug it in and the pyramid executes everything etched into it as a software program.

After Chrome's RAM guzzling architecture and Firefox' Rust rewrite promises, reading this is so disappointing.

I feel we need to flesh that out more. Because if we just say sleep establishes the patterns, it's almost as if we say a pianist who has been playing for decades forgets how to be a pianist without a day of sleep, and then while sleepi

Do you think people who implement ui changes are paid with same money as those who implement encryption api?

I can list a bunch of trivial reasons why we sleep, about memory and so on. I can also give trivial explanations like "it's because you're tired and you get rest". But I wonder if anyone has explained why typing coordina

No service has 0% error rate, and 100% errors doesn't even mean much without context (you never receive all possible errors at once).

It's not a property of text-based protocols, rather it's a property of simple protocols. HTTP/1 is not merely text based, it's ASCII based (technically ISO-8859-1, which includes ASCII). One char, one byte, one encoding.

You can't pinpoint which one because it's not a logical fallacy. Which makes it extra funny you're reaching for one, just because you find what I have to say uncomfortable. I'm afraid you'd have to satisfy yourself

3 tiers are older than computers. As for JS, most things that becomes popular have been around for decades, but without being popular. Society is slow as f**.

So by that logic you should use Google (wrong, but let's play along). And by Notepad's logic you should use Google (because it's Bing and Google, that's it). Good job?

It sure likes to pretend it does. And ask yourself if that isn't worse than doing nothing.

It also runs Windows, and Notepad++ is a Windows app.

Notepad++ should make a statement and drop Microsoft entirely. By moving away from GitHub and dropping support for Windows. I know what you're thinking. That's my point.

I wouldn't call it "copious amounts of data directly" you still gotta train yourself to use it, and the interface itself should train itself to recognize it. It might be enough to make people walk again though.

It's not a defective culture meme, because the modern ecosystem is moving fast. We're using to thinking about digital creations as if they're forever. This is incorrect. Software without a platform doesn't run. Platforms

1 is about object identity. 4 is about object type/function. I.e. polymorphism. It may seem like a weak criteria if you're using to OOP/FP languages that provide typesafe, efficient polymorphism out of the box. But the reason
