You can have N frontends for one backend. If you need a new iOS app you will probably hire a team of iOS developers, not have all of your product teams learn Swift. If your API looks like this... /ios-app/v1/landing-page

He already signed the deal . Yes it would be rational to ask for all of this before committing to buying Twitter at a set price, but apparently he didn't. You talk about "Musk-hate" but your post says you think he's an

In theory you can support this search with a suffix tree [1] or n-gram index [2], (but you will need n>3 because your alphabet is small.) I'm not sure what ready-made tools or libraries you might find for this - last time I checked

PostgreSQL will not perform well on genome data compared to specialized algorithms like BLAST and its alternatives. For exact search a suffix array should allow fast lookup, but DNA search usually requires approximate matches. I don't

The chat logs they captured from his servers[1] are straight forward and damning, and corroborated by the diary they retrieved from his laptop. There is no serious doubt that he solicited multiple hits, both from an undercover FBI agent and

It would be perfectly fine terms if he actually wanted to buy Twitter - at a silly price but hey, it's his billions of dollars. That's presumably what he told people and not "hey I'm just joking around, make sure to wr

It would be interesting to look at historical data for permissions - what permissions are apps adding in the last few months compared to further back? Could make for some nice graphs and a blog post if you happened to have that data lying a

Splitting your code over many repositories massively increases the cost of refactoring, making it that less likely that your system will be "well factored". Besides the "N pull requests" problem you now lose history when

I got this feeling as well and I did 50% better with the plain Literata. I wonder the bolding might speed up slower readers and slow down faster readers by encouraging a word-by-word pace. It would be interesting to see a scatter plot of Bi

You can't be paranoid enough to imagine the disgusting amount of location data being slurped up by unscrupulous apps and traded for any purpose at all. Targeting ads based on having been near or in a store is completely standard. http

The zeitgeist is one of clinical depression; Negative outcomes are taken for granted, every action to improve the situation is futile, and fatigue and paralysis sets in. We might expect the fashion to turn from activism to nihilism and then

PCs can and do include hardware support for entropy gathering, see RDSEED [1] Linux is aware of RDSEED and uses it to provide additional randomness when available. You do need to trust the implementation to be free from backdoors and bugs -

That seems uncharitable. The linked issue barely mentions frevib's echo server, and in the one place it does it's the fastest! Further they show that performance improves when using io_uring for readiness polling but standard read

Header bidding also means that websites blast your page visits to every provider that might want to bid on it, instead of "only" to the ad exchange and the winner. Just a massive surveillance spout to anyone at all. Just because G

With a branching factor of 5 it won't take long before every person playing has made an unique sequence of choices, so I don't think caching would help you as much as you'd think. You could maybe cheaply serve the people who

You could update your storage as you go, the indexing doesn't appear to be that expensive. For many tasks it wouldn't be helpful because the input is small enough to be covered by the context already, and for summarizing and quest

It's a safe bet that Google is using transformers at scale for search and translations - the full extent isn't public but they release a fair amount of research papers, e.g. the current article, or https://ai.googleblog
