Vinyl is terrible for complex classic music - orchestral. ~40db of dynamic range against nearly 100 on CD and more on SACD

It's really not that bad to learn, to deploy and to work with. You don't have to go all-in distributed system, shared state etc to get a lot of benefit from Ex and the smart decisions it has made.

We used to do a mix of Ocado and our local grocer - Ocado for dry and frozen goods and cleaning. Have switched cleaning to Splosh though, as much lower waste https://www.splosh.com/ .

As a sendgrid customer, this explains why, even after upgrading to dedicated ips and setting all our auth/security stiff correctly we still have emails being blocked inexplicably. Top off the rubbish customer service - they didn’t resp

Because it is. I only upload on the desktop and I dump a card full of RAWs and then can deal with them as if it's nothing.

Not sure why reading any of PG’s writing - especially his tweets - would give the impression that he’s anything other than firmly parked on the side of capital in the class war.

It looks like they want to charge me the same as Lightroom but without the seamless cloud storage.

This would be amazing if, out of the box, it sent data to BiqQuery and/or Redshift. Postgres is fine, but for most companies this data is most useful in the warehouse. If this was a simple, drop-in solution to get well formatted data i

Wondered if someone was going to call this out. Could've namechecked many other places but picked a Paris outer suburb.

We tried to use app engine and it was a nightmare for us. K8s has a ramp, but it’s been incredibly smooth now that we’re setup and going.

Bollocks. The company as an entity played naughty, so it should, as an entity, get punished. Otherwise the stakeholders get a free ride.

I mean maybe I’m not their dream customer or whatever, but we’re happy with google cloud for our purposes - GKE, CloudSQL, Redis. I really enjoyed the essay and surely is some truth, but these products have all been pretty good for us.

Argos is great as an Amazon alternative in the UK and often more convenient as you can pick up at any Sainsburys (there’s lots of small local ones) and they do same day delivery on a lot of things.

You don’t sign up to anything, it’s with the issuing bank or provider.

That’s such a lovely and heartwarming thing to do. Kudos to you and thanks for sharing.

As I said, I'm on the side against brexit, but what you're saying is not true. The EU is struggling massively with this current budget round and the loss of the UK contribution seems to legitimately be causing problems. The shit a

Nah, they'll want the budget contributions back. Also, as much as I think Brexit is a complete waste, it doesn't have to be a disaster either - although this govt. seems hellbent on making it one. By the time the UK comes to recon

It's still a single threaded run time. There's one platform that's ideal for web, BEAM, but unfortunately it doesn't have a strongly typed language. Elixir and Erlang are both great languages though.

Every technical blog post is these days, all just part of one massive content strategy grift. It's tiring. I miss the old days of good technical writers writing useful blog posts which people read and appreciated.

CloudSQL just took down our DB for the hell of it once. Must've cycled the node or something.

Me too. Though I went spotify -> vinyl -> bandcamp. Spotify is still useful, but much better to own.

When I eventually leave London, I feel like some of my favourite memories are going to be sitting in the back of an Uber driving from Sth to Nth London at 5am.
