Most of the population of Canada is within miles of the US border. For any given city, connection to the US is probably much more important than connections to other parts of Canada.

Unfortunately many leftists are more interested in manipulating green energy to meet their unrelated political goals than solving global warming. If a green power project does not also bring about an international dictatorship of the prolet

It sounds like their tech was somewhere in between these two extremes. I would expect that some engineers with relevant experience in networking and programmable logic could get it done. It's also not particularly novel- lots of networ

Having dealt with VCs, I'm kind of confused by this comment. In my experience, they do not delve deeply into the tech. I'm guessing this is because most of their portfolio companies fail for non-technical reasons. They mostly assu

Someone is working on an "ORM" that uses codegen from proto files, which we are already using for serialization. Not sure when it will be done. Compiler level generics are just a lot quicker and easier for anyone to use without re

How can Signal protect metadata? If the CIA hacks Signal's servers and sees a large encrypted payload coming in from me and going out to you, they know i texted you an image even if they can't see what it is.

Generics will be insanely useful for me. I work in an environment that uses a huge Golang KV store for all persistence. This means we write all of our own indexing code etc. None of it is reusable because of the lack of generics, so each mo
