Who would this be for in 2024? I remember evaluating Riak back in 2011 or so for an analytics solution, but ended up going with a more traditional OLAP database that was a much better option. It's hard for me to imagine where Riak woul

Stationary recumbent bikes works great. I have little tray with mouse and trackball that I slide over my knees when cycling.

Or at least sit on the idea for a week or two before pulling the trigger. Lots of stuff I think I want in the moment turns out to be not so important.

Agreed, and I've also come around to the inverse conclusion: if there are words people would like me to use (someone's preferred pronouns, the in-house terminology, the name someone introduced themselves with) then it's not a

I like the way the code examples work: A live editor with documentation that shows up on the right hand side (click the Play with Hazel) button. But does it any more than a live editor and type checker? Can you actually create a program tha

I see a language that compiles to JS. What makes this a superset of Typescript? Are there more types? A more powerful type system?

Oh there's more than one of us! I also have a stationary bike under my standing desk. It's a cheap recumbent. It's not amazing in terms of ergonomics, so I use it for about 20-30 mins at a time, a few times a day. I used to w

I would prefer something less bulky (I don’t wear a watch) but thank you for the link: that is indeed dirt cheap and probably worth a go.

I used dotenv-vault at my last job (paid customers) and it worked well. I think that service has been replaced by dotenvx but I haven’t tried that.

Magnesium bisglycinate supplementation (and vitamin D in winter) has greatly reduced the frequency and intensity of restless legs. This is pretty well known in the RLS community, so just mentioning it in case anyone here could benefit.

One way to address this in Elasticsearch would be to put each customers documents in their own index. Other than that, as far as I can tell it's not smart enough to apply filters first. Also, shards can affect BM25 scoring: https:&#x2

Pulumi worked great for me at my last job. I've heard it's not so fun with Python, but I thought it was really nice to use with Typescript.

I hardly ever navigate by clicking on a tab. I use keyboard shortcuts to navigate by filename, symbol, etc... Might be worth a try if you're getting lost in tabs, your IDE probably supports it.

Thank you for that. You’re right that there will need to be long-term support of API versions (or at least the current one and maybe the previous one). My instinct is to give the users the full objects and let them select the fields they wa
