Yeah, seriously. It was there to visually fool customer into thinking the price is cheaper than it really is. But because today it is insignificant difference as well everyone else is doing it, it is just nonsense and no longer serves its p

It looks like GUID is synonymous with UUID, but the name GUID also implies that it could contain that bug/feature mentioned[1] [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universally_unique_identifier#...

Even when doing it by hand it might not be easy. Also from personal experience I think whatever they are doing also has a lot of false positive. I managed to not have a twitter account for so many years, but created one as I wanted to post

It's a silly argument though. If twitter knew all bots, they could easily remove them all. Because that isn't as easy, what they have is just an estimate. And what makes Elon estimate any better than twitter's? Elon figured o

Hmm in those instances I think this would be much better solution: https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Nix-shell_shebang#Python Instead of checking whether proper version is used, why not just ensure it runs on right now (and perh

If somebody else is running the code, it likely is packaged. Every python packaging I know allows to specify version of python to use so IMHO that's what should be used.

We know that if state is not used we can't handle deletions without affecting everything else. So here's a solution that could satisfy stateless proponents: we don't keep state for anything that we deploy and instead we shoul

I think your perception might be due to using TF. To me, once CF added YAML support it's much more straight forward to use.

I'm guessing no, or at most just have set of extensions that you can use (kind of like it's done in AWS RDS or AWS Aurora). The claim is "serverless" i.e. you don't have access to the server and if you could install

Yeah that would work, but how will I be able to put it on my resume?

I feel like everyone who worked with MySQL, had some story with lost data. Two companies that I worked for used MySQL and in both of them I had an instance where data was lost or corrupted and it did not involve hardware failure. First inst

It was many things, but I personally think what started the dominoes rolling was actually Python. MySQL got popular because it was the database of choice on PHP, while on Python that was Postgres (via psycopg2). If the database of choice fo

The problem is that default.nix is like setup.py for Python. It allowed people do all kinds of nonstandard things and custom code. The callPackage pattern was developed later on, and people who use it as some kind of standard, but it was ju

I don't think it is a good idea. Usually when things like that happen the project will become less and less effective, also once it is so ingrained it will be harder to switch to a new kid in town that is better. Firefox has its own bu

It's kind of nice. So everything in nix revolves around /nix/store This is where each package is stored in a form <hash>-<package name and version> The second part is only useful for humans and is not really nece

Maybe there are issues, but this behavior is something I would personally expect and I believe this is the right way. I wouldn't want database to lookup the table/column id every time an extra lookup of the name is performed.

I don't think GP comment belittles Vint. It belittles Google, for just hiring him for his name and not for his expertise. Vint is very vocal about IPv6 adaptation, yet it sounds like his opinion seems to be treated as if he was some ki
