In some ways MCP is like the next evolution of API over HTTP. We've exposed our APIs as SOAP endpoints. These were not well suited to web based clients, leading to the development of "RESTful" JSON endpoints. As web clients b

I think its a control vs safety trade off. Zig forces explicit control over memory with some tools for safety. Rust forces safety with some tools for control. I only have hobbyist level experience with these languages. I find both enjoyable

Nice write up. I did something similar at a company recently. The ransomware use case was the primary driver. AWS Backup felt kind of half baked. It also took a lot of work to ensure we could bring the apps up in the recovery account smooth

Very cool. I also really enjoyed your Terraria wiring computer and the wiring mod you made. Keep it up!

In early 2000, I cobbled together a gaming PC from used parts that I bought or traded for. It had a K6-2, a Voodoo 2, and 192 MB of RAM. It was amazing and such an upgrade over my family’s Celeron. The big games were TFC, Counter-Strike, Un

Right. I took the article to mean they were extinct before then. I did not know that they had ever lived there.

I had no idea beavers were extinct in the UK. I hope they thrive. We have a family of beavers on some property in the US. It is fascinating to watch their effect on the landscape over time. Ours cycle between an upstream and downstream habi

Very cool. The first web site I ever made was for my CS clan. I hosted it on the Linux server in my university dorm room that also hosted our CS server. I don't remember what I did for DNS back then. I learned so much that I still use

I was just reminiscing about this with a friend last night. We had tons of free time and games like Counter-Strike were the wild west of creativity. My fondest memory was a Spring afternoon in 2000 after school playing some janky fan made m

That is similar to the premise of the TV show Jericho [0]. Not a great show, but its worth a watch if you like that sort of thing. [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jericho_(2006_TV_series)

I am working on dealing with burnout for the first time. I’ve read about it here and thought I understood it, but experiencing it first hand has been difficult. It destroys everything good about life: relationships, hobbies, sleep, and heal

The impact of going from a non-X3D to X3D CPU is incredible in that game. I could be off on the details, but I recall benchmarks showing that just switching to an X3D has a much larger impact than jumping multiple generations of GPU. I get

I've always been fascinated by conspiracy theories. The weather weapon conspiracy isn't even new. I remember hearing "they" were controlling the weather to create storms using HAARP [0] like 20 years go. Back then you ha

I've read this a few times over the years. Always amusing to experience the shift from totally believable to totally absurd as the second view is presented.

Sadly, yes. I lose track of time and allow work to consume all my waking hours. Having to travel a little helps. I still fall into it if I need to work in the evening after I get home.

I don't have the discipline to stop working when I work from home. Being able to go into the office every day is a nice perk for me to help structure my day. If it was a longer drive, I'd probably feel differently.

Alcohol causes me anxiety. It has gotten worse as I have gotten older. The side effects of one drink are mild enough that I can still drink socially once in while if I am careful. If I have more, it is 24+ hours of unpleasantness. Luckily I

Congratulations! Finances are a common source of strife in marriages. Getting and staying on the same page is critical. Communicate about finances openly and often. Budget together. Review the budget together regularly. It sounds like you a

Sure. This is a good practice for multiple reasons. However, the code that glues my interface to the underlying I/O is still there and needs testing, right? I agree with you in general. But it always feels like there are spots where a

Maybe I am missing something, but how else would I test various exception handling paths? There is a whole world of errors that can occur during IO. What happens if I get a 500 from that web service call? How does my code handle a timeout?

This is cool. I am going to try it with my kids next time we play. It also reminds me of a free to play online settlers of catan game from 15-20 years ago. There was no time limit on turns, so people could just grief the game by going AFK.

Interesting. A lot of care went into this. Thank you for sharing. Is there a reason you chose not implement java.util.Queue?

Aside from charging to put gas in an EV, the amounts they are charging seem really high. How could filling a sedan with gas cost $200 to $400? That’s like 10x what the actual gas costs retail at the pump.

Interesting. I will have to read it. Though from the description it does not sound hopeful. Thank you.

First, thank you for the article and discussion. Do you have any thoughts on the role and practicality of deterrence in this space?

A company called Energy Vault[0] is (was?) working on this. I think it is relatively capital intensive compared to what the company in the article is doing. Of course storing underground requires particular geology. I also remember reading

We map the TUS[0] protocol to S3 multipart upload operations. This lets us obscure the S3 bucket from the client and perform authorize each interaction. The TUS operations are handled by a dedicated micro-service. It could be done in a Lamb
