Ah, no, Gwynne Shotwell is the COO.

Obligatory reminder that SpaceX has its own CEO, think the other companies do too. Think Musk actually staffs the orgs pretty well other than Tesla the other companies seem like they’d do fine without him, but him pushing seems to help.

Think 18 is M1 optimised, there were a few claims and videos saying it way 30x faster or something, but that turns out to be over the top. Does seem to be an appreciable performance improvement in many places though.

My mise en place is very similar to the authors - set up whatever I need to get fast and clear feedback before anything. If it’s a web service, set up a hello world / health check to auto-deploy with migrations if applicable, after aut

There are a few things that can happen, irrespective of how “perfect” your work is: Silence. The world ignores you and your work. It never makes frontpage or gets starred by more than a handful of people. This is not a problem my itself. Un

Inheritance taxes take wealth away from heirs, but unless there’s tremendous faith in the quality of government it’s not clear that it benefits everyone else. In the US the people who’d get richer from the government being flush with inheri

Yeah, I believe it is. But not by your Cloudfront distribution. It’s like the Amplify team is paying the Cloudfront team for distributions, so they’re not exposed to you. You don’t see the Amplify Console apps in your Cloudfront dashboard,

For the AWS crowd, I’ve moved most of my sites to Amplify Console - almost exactly the same feature set, will full integration with the rest of AWS. Next.js has a slightly more convincing reason to use specialised hosting - Vercel has tight

My personal experience with generics was to port a parallel circular queue library (used to take interface{} and require a type cast at every use) add an experiment to build all the Lodash slice and collection functions in Go. Happy to say

Pretty much, yes.

The method I try to use with the kid is to involve her in what I’m doing, and enable and encourage playing at being an adult. That translates a lot into doing some of the housework. Other than that I try to avoid rewards for work, but I do

Thanks, Will keep this in mind when I do the perf edits and benchmarks. And yeah, didn’t want to confuse slices arrays, but it’s weirder to call them slices.

Lots of competitors have emerged or are emerging. No single one can or maybe even should take over the mantle. Google’s death will come not from some upstart search engine, but from many walled gardens that each have perfectly good topical

Yeah, I’m using and delegating to it when possible. I don’t expect it to be as exhaustive as the lodash set though.

An example of something that I couldn’t do with earlier non-generic versions of Go: implement the lodash functions in Go with a nice DX[1]. I kept using []T though, and the article has a good example of how to improve that to work with slic

Access to the beta isn’t for sale, no? If you paid for the final product you’ll get it, but I don’t think anyone is obligated to let you in on a beta.

This seems to be hallmark of a “Middle” developer. Not so junior that they couldn’t build a working solution that they assume everyone should use, but not senior enough to think twice about whether they should be building it. The “we should

This is debatable. One of the problems with slavery is the institution supporting it - the laws against slaves that were enforced by the government. If there wasn’t a government the slaves could simply kill the master and take the land. Whi

Say the earth is a smooth featureless sphere and there are 36000 basketballs bouncing around, and say they all broke into 100 tennis ball size fragments. You’d still never expect to run into a single one. And that’s on the surface, there’s

Can’t really be any other way, country X will usually stipulate that all taxes be remitted in the local currency. So they’ll have to be calculated in that currency, therefore invoices in that currency.

If you have a billing address in country X and country X mandates that all invoices paid by customers in country X must have certain taxes applied and remitted, AWS will set up a subsidiary in that country, bill in the locally currency, and

The Canadian sales tax can’t be applied in USD, though. If a country is applying taxes all invoices and taxes will need to be calculated in the currency of the country applying the tax.

Your belief otherwise is either an evil capitalist lie or an insidious effort to undermine the principles on which your great nation is built. Either way you need to be shot unless you can start believing in the facts required for the great

Yeah, think you could. They have a lambda adapter as well, so you’d get nearly infinite scale straight away.

That's the kind of cost-benefit analysis that's lazy on Heroku's part though, and doesn't properly track brand damage or even attempt to think about second order effects. The country has a huge developer population, mass
