Currently onboarding to go. For me personally, it's too opinionated e.g. for: error handling, mutability, unit testing, naming conventions, lack of features like sum types. As a new joiner, some things have a "religious" feel

My method is take an educated guess multiply by 2 add 1 as extra buffer and then change it to the next unit, e.g. day->week, week->month, months->quarter. So for something that it should take 1 day I'd say 3 weeks. It seems a

Would efficiency improve if they were to use larger machines? Same CPU/memory ratio, but more CPUs and memory? Assuming the have more than ~20 VMS for this.. it would also be interesting to know if they could get away with a single ver

"Companies with relatively young, high-quality codebases" I thought that at the beginning the code might be a bit messy because there is the need to iterate fast and quality comes with time, what's the experience of the crowd

Nice idea, but it seems that for some countries the longest possible time off has a big overlap with school holidays, which makes sense. However travelling during school breaks is more expensive, it would be nice to find a way to optimize t

+1 to this. Smaller datapoint from my side I guess, but anyway, docker is the core of my self hosting setup and it is one of the things that I don't have to fiddle with, it just works.

Working on a monorepo where we have hundreds (possibly thousands) of projects each with a different version and release schedule. It actually works quite well, the dependencies are always in a good state, it's easy to see the ramificat

"one monorepo per project (api, frontend, backend, mobile, etc. as long as it's the same project) and if needed a dedicated repo for a shared library." They are literally saying that multiple repos should be used, also for sh

I still hope that someday the whole world will run on UTC0 and there is no more time zones madness. I know the day will likely never come but I like to keep dreaming.

Btw how would a double layered zip bomb look in practice? After you decompress the fist layer the second layer should be a simple zip, but that would need to be manually constructed I guess, are there any links to learn more?

Code autocompletion. I think it works around 60% of the cases, sometimes it saves some tipping. Performance increase: small. Additionally, I don't learn the API as good as if I were to type it, considering moving back.

Maybe a dumb question, but what kind of programming languages and operating systems were used at that time in the Soviet Union? Were c and unix a thing there as well?

Are there any known legal actions taken for people sharing copyrighted material? I know that in some countries e.g. Germany it is dangerous to share via P2P as it's quite probable that some law firm will sue you.

From a legal perspective, are there any regulations on these kinds of attacks? Meaning, are they allowed? Are they considered a war crime or maybe this is still a gray area?

They might have taste but they still don't have IPv6. Sorry for the rant, but I'm always baffled that they haven't switched yet. Anyone has insight about the challenges they are facing?

Tried a couple of times to switch to Dvorak, the biggest blocker are the shortcuts. I'm also an avid vi user and I feel it's closer to impossible to use it with a different layout.
