Just a note - I had a Nokia D90 dslr that would overheat if left in video mode for too long (over 5 minutes). Check for any "max video recording length" mentions on the camera's spec sheet as a early sign that this might be

It's surprisingly fast. I think they extended it to create copy-on-write memory at fork time, which made it incredibly fast and low-overhead to fork.

I mean they made a big air filter out of an ioniq5... Kind of bolsters OPs claims. Still better than stupid commercials for marketing dollars.

The only way it would be too low is if the stock price went up above that. Reality is it's under that - signaling that it is in fact not too low.

Zapier has a large moat. I would like to think anything you can bring to the table to compete or add value (maybe flow-based logic rules or inclusion of serverless script-level transforms similar to pipedream) could be cherry picked and add

Also, compounds that are fatal tend to be so to all life forms vs just humans with the variation being dosage. It goes without saying the odds of taking a compound and finding a drug that does one very specific thing without doing anything

We're not far from a publisher revolt against google - essentially if you're a publisher with good data, doing the legwork of curating and moderating user generated content, and making it discoverable... google is just cherry-pick

GTAV with mods is probably the benchmark for games that are difficult to differentiate from reality. I hope they don't make the same fractured-platform launch that they did on V, and fully bake the online play before releasing it.

For environments where build is included in deployment (Not best practice at all, but sadly common) it can be very pronounced. Don't forget that CI systems are increasingly memory/cycle/time based for billing, and having a ni

I have a feeling AWS lambda's hypervisor has a lot of overhead, and simply making your workload smaller/lighter has a very noticeable reduction in execution time (cold start is <10ms on most of our GO lambdas). re: full serverl

For us it's as simple as docker build right from the repo -> push to registry for test deployment then tag with prod for rollout from there. Probably not ideal for 20+ dev teams or high complexity deployments but this is the simples

It's not so much about it getting faster over time, it's about it NEVER getting slower, and never breaking. That is something you want to have in your stack when you want to stay on latest and not get stuck on a rewrite 6 years do

If you're thinking about an edge where you have less than 3MB of storage space, and likely very limited in-memory space, you'd probably still be better to go with C. These kinds of environments are becoming very small % of use ca

You can make notable compression gains by using a simple 7z self-extracting PE file on your already-static golang binary. In some cases this can yield another 10-50% savings in binary size. For environments where fresh startup time are im

LTL also makes more sense with shorter trailers, since you can unload and reload the trailer quickly without having to play Jenga at the dock. It also encourages depot-to-depot runs vs supplier-to-client, which leads to the average trip le
