The OP didn't assert anyone was switching in droves... they were asking what feature of deno would _cause_ that to happen.

The rationale for the support cycle bump is a little surprising to me. I always thought it would happen with feature stabilisation, but tne reason given is simply “people weren’t upgrading”.

The biggest change for me is there’s no longer a risk of putting a screwdriver through your motherboard when attaching a CPU cooler. Why they didn’t address that a decade or more is beyond me!

There are probably a few people in this thread who saw 'pork' and instantly thought 'commodity', then extrapolated to 'soybeans'. Which doesn't sound like the game you're in based on this comment, whi

Sure, but you wouldn't teach them the alphabet starting with 'q'. The list on the index page starts with 0, if nothing else it would be more consistent to start the counting section with 0 as well (FWIW I agree with the OP, I

It was the same this year, there were reports in the media questioning the efficacy of the 2019 vaccination due to mutation. Anecdotally, there did seem to be a very large number of sick people around this year (even now, in spring) althoug

Sydney, Australia is pretty much the same - 2 seasons, most trees are green all year, and things that you’d normally associate with Autumn tend to happen at the start of Winter.

I’m not sure gVisor was incepted because Isolates didn’t provide strong enough isolation - wasn’t it because Google was looking for a way to provide stronger isolation for containers (i.e. not V8-only) without the overhead of traditional vi

What does this mean, if anything, for PKS - i thought that was a joint Google/Pivotal/VMware effort?

That is not the case in UK however, which is where I'm drawing my (outlier, going by Wikipedia) experience.

Sure, but in terms of consistency they are 2 sides of the same coin.

If you commit a legal act today that becomes illegal in the future, is it reasonable to be retrospectively convicted? 2 sides of the same coin.

by sturadnidge 8y ago
Ex post facto applies both ways - you can do something legal today and be punished in the future if it becomes illegal (UK tax law has some good examples of this). It would be inconsistent to say past crimes should be revoked if the law cha

I’d be curious to know if there was a difference in engagement from Overwatchers. I basically stopped doing cases because there was so much junk in queue (rage reporting, skilled players playing against unskilled players, aka ‘smurfing’, et

I always wished that Joshua Davis would offer a service like this... are you both the artist and the logistics for this? If so, have you considered just providing the logistics aspects for other artists to consume?

Congrats to the CoreOS team, although I’m a little bit sad to see this happen it’s a way better outcome than what happened with RethinkDB!

I know what you mean, but that scenario would also require the 'previousHash' of index 9 and 109 to be identical no?

If your career starts out as a developer, there are going to be things you have to work on that you find no excitement in (gross generalisation of course, but true for the overwhelming majority of developers I'd say). It wasn't un

Despite stating that this is intended for server side use, he's also ignoring a major node / io convention with 'callback(success, failure)' - that alone will probably kill it for many us!
