They were violating our terms of service, rate limiting, responsible behaviour etc. etc. So we care quite a bit what Checkly is used for. We have a page for it: https://www.checklyhq.com/docs/browser-checks/respons

OP here: funny and true story. We had a misconfiguration in our rate limiting. One smarty pants used it to blast his twitch channel with "viewers", e.g. a 1000 concurrent Puppeteer sessions. It was probably great for his engagemen

I guess so, the emergence of Playwright is therefore really interesting in general. It's two frameworks by arguably the same folks. Time will tell what will happen. Competition is never bad!

Maybe fun to add. The guides and articles are all on GitHub as is the source code for the site - it’s Vuepress based so it might help folks who want to make their own knowledge base using that framework.

“Made simple”. Well...I tried it and it’s by far the most complex, sprawling, cluttered, “everything under the sun” testing framework I’ve ever encountered. I kinda liked the premise, but take “simple” with a truck load of salt.

A public roadmap functions as a communications tool and sounding board. However, it does not negate strong product leadership or moderation of course. Interestingly, my small SaaS was using GitHub projects as a public roadmap for the last 2

The book on Theranos (Bad Blood) actually makes the argument that no “real” big names were in Theranos: Kissinger, Mattis and Schultz knew nothing about health care or medicin. They are/were career politicians. The book argues investor

Totally speculative and 100% opinion: could it be that Thoughtworks is a bit scared of JS taking over the world? My feeling is it totally does not fit their model: enterprise heavy, high $$$ consultancy, Java all the things. I'm exagge

completely off topic: why do so many folks on HN refer to Elon Musk as "Elon"? Rarely are peopling talking about Bill or Steve; you always add the surname or use just the surname.

Was about to post this. The Hyperion saga is an absolute must for hard SF freaks. If you like the three body problem, you’ll love this too. The 4D creature mentioned by parent is amazing. There are more 4D puzzles like a temple moving back
