Deliveries are still a pain right now because you have to be present at the destination to receive the package. Or you have to fetch the package yourself at a designed location. I believe that a lot of Internet sales are lost to local busin

LightTable started it's life with an unusual layout which gave me hope we could break free of that classical layout. Unfortunately it reverted to the classical layout later on.

ServerSentEvents are great to subscribe to a single topic. It's simple to use and handle re-connections automatically, even providing the last seen event ID. If you want to subscribe to multiple topics and change subscriptions dynamica

The library looks really nice usability wise. The arrow.get function tries a bit too hard to be user-friendly ; it lets me wondering if a value could have an unexpected interpretation. One use-case that seem to be missing is time deltas. Th

OBS looks great but somehow I always get hung at the learning phase. Is there some pointers that you recommend for new users to build their own packages ?

I have used Ansible 6 months ago and it felt slow. The biggest issue which is intrinsic to the model is that each task is executed sequentially across all the target hosts. It makes it's behaviour easy to understand but it also makes e

I didn't know about this. Hopefully it's stable. EDIT: looks fairly stable. Back to Firefox.

The only thing I want from Firefox is to stop freezing completely when a single tab goes crazy. It just makes the whole experience feel clunky compared to Chrome. Usually it happens with Gmail so maybe there is a conspiracy there to drive a

I don't know for node but FFI calls usually have an overhead. Depending on the complexity of the routes it might be faster to use a pure version.

You can learn the syntax and be proficient with linear code in a couple of days but not for the parallelism part. Getting a feeling of good patterns with goroutines and channels takes a couple of tries before it becomes right.

Or show a shrinked-down screenshot of the application. At least there would be a correlation between the application and it's icon. Responsive design all the way to the icon.

How much cognitive overhead is it to think about ownership all the time once you get used to it ? Coming from a GC-languages background I had a hard time thinking in those terms last time I played with it. I ended up having .clone() littere

If you truly care about speed you'll have different optimizations for int32 and int64. Depending on who you are working with, the lack of generics is a blessing. Some developers can't restrain themselves and create over-complex ab
