That also struck me as a pretty weird quote to highlight. Someone who "seems like they’ll get what they want" sounds more like a bully more than a persuader or value creator. Isn't there something better to aspire to?

The only rationale given for the initial switch to microservices is this: > Initially, when the destinations were divided into separate services, all of the code lived in one repo. A huge point of frustration was that a single broken tes

About the ethics of residential proxies: Brightdata, which sells a residential proxy, blocks their own proxy when you point it to brightdata.com. The fact that they don't allow you to use their service to scrape their own domain, tells

I often run my projects on Supabase and then the Supabase UI becomes a backstop where I can teach my admin users to do things if they really have to. That, or just use Airtable as a backend, if you can get away with it. Mostly I agree with

Since the printer takes flexible roll sizes and cuts its own pages, probably it would work out of the box with letter right? I do get your point though, it would be nice if this was not an NC license

On top of security concerns, you're now shipping potentially buggy code with every dataset. And you're relying on adherence to semver to match local binary unpacker implementations to particular wasm unpackers. I see why you'

I see a $400 price tag on a five week course. If it takes 5 weeks to learn how to use your product, I am skeptical that it has legs. Side note: supposedly this is the first cohort of this course, so how do you already have testimonials?

Those guided tours are so good though! You can learn so many cool stories and details and it's a different experience every time, so it's always fun to go back.

Isn't there a situation where the agentic browser, acting correctly on behalf of the user, needs to send Bitcoin or buy plane tickets? Isn't that flexibility kind of the whole point of the system? If so, I don't see what you

Right, the real reason isn't to stop theft, it's to avoid the optics of store-branded carts being left around and save management the hassle of retrieving carts from nearby properties.

Nah an RSS feed has the ability to contain n feed items. This proposed new protocol would have a maximum of 1 item. The closed contract (1 notification only, ever) makes sure that it doesn't become yet another avenue for producers to p

In Cockney rhyming slang, the rhyming word (which would be easy to reverse engineer) is omitted. So if "stairs" is rhyme-paired with "apples and pears" and then people just use the word "apples" in place of &qu
