I really don't understand. Maybe I'm stupid. But I don't see the issue. I work with go daily, but I'm pretty sure our binary is pegged to a specific go version, using go.mod I don't see in what scenario I would add

Understood, thanks for clarifying. I didn't mean to attack your specific wording. I strongly agree with your mention of "preferably national level" regulation. More and more, across all issues, I see this as our biggest obsta

> It's probably better for the city to have overbuilt than under, and attempts to discourage vacancy are likely to discourage new construction. I am in agreement with the general points being made in this discussion, but this jumps

What are the constants used for? How often do they change? How quickly do you need changes to propogate?

Who is incentivized to run projects in the way proposed? Why are teams continuing to do waterfall if its results are so undesirable? For what it's worth, all the startups I've worked for conducted software projects with the "

Yes, I would agree the current state of the profession absolutely attracts low quality candidates. It's a self fulfilling prophecy. Every other wealthy nation understands this.

Pretty much what I expect from a union fighting a society who refuses to value the work that they do. I really have a hard time blaming teachers for anything. We (America) seem to expect them to perform miracles. We are not their "cust

Why do they need to get everything out? Some not-insignificant percentage of the content is surely archived/unused/unneeded assets. From customers who will never log in again or projects which are long over. Export the most recent

Pretty much except writing graphql schemas is actually quite enjoyable and expressive. I was always the biggest advocate for schema-first development, but OpenAPI specs were always such a pain to write and maintain. For this reason alone I

I couldn't agree more. I think it's disingenuous to pretend that the hacker news demographic isn't historically aligned with the NIMBY class, as you put: "affluent". Its easier to say "cities" did this tha

You're absolutely right. But I would argue "cities" is no less vacuous than my wording.

Who are "cities"? It's the people who live there and vote for the city government. We did this.

> a failure of one service does not cascade and degrade the functionality of all other services using it. This always struck me as a blatantly disingenuous generalization. What are the two services being described here? It matters very m

I felt the opposite once I stopped writing backends in Python and moved to Scala, then Go. The compiler is like an extra set of eyes attached to a brain that doesn't make mistakes. The type system in Scala especially freed up so much t

Excuse my ignorance, but what sort of applications benefit from hardware acceleration on limited SoC resources?

Well, in this case, I suspect Google can stop providing services, which would significantly hinder Twitter's operations. If your mechanic still had possession of your car, I guess it would be a similarly leveraged situation.

One comment says "it's shipped to you", another says "it's digital only". This post doesn't seem to be an official press release, but this confusion seems notable.

I was extremely skeptical for years. I've been using it daily for 6 months and I'm surprised how much I like it. Maybe I was bad at defining REST interfaces. But the interface-definition-language aspect of GQL has been invaluable.

This is a result of trying to make HTTP "do everything well", right? Instead of leaving it to each application to select a layering of successive protocols tailored to it's needs, everything has been jammed into the HTTP spec
