I'd give the a thumbs up to smart_open. Happily used it to have our servers parse data dumps of up to several hundred megabytes on user-configurable remote storage without drama. Seems like it could handle larger files without issue, b

Describing a patch queue development workflow as a "slightly nicer interface to interactive rebase" does it a tremendous disservice. It's like saying "a database is a slightly nicer interface to a filesystem" — tech

It seems like Phabricator supports this type of workflow, and I really wish there was wider popularity so I could push for it at work. The lab|hub style PR ends up with people falling into giant PRs that are difficult to review.

Funny to hear that you learned patch queues with mq. mq was my favorite part of mercurial and it's how I learned to use patch queues too. Thank you for maintaining StGit — I really enjoy it as a tool! topgit is fine, but quite heavy. I

Probably the lost ad revenue. No company wants to advertise on those streams. By breaking them out in way where advertisers could opt out of that stream category, suggestive streamers (a huge segment of traffic) would lose money for Twitch.

I'm glad I'm not in the situation of needing to make the judgement call, but Postgres' ecosystem might be part of the answer. For example, Snowflake has basic geospatial support, but PG has insane and useful stuff in PostGIS

Eh, want is a subtle thing. There's a lot of research around women's declining happiness since the 1970s[1], which implies this change is not an unalloyed good. I blame marketing. A lot of marketing tells women what to want, and m

I'm not even Indian and it's shocking that anyone thinks unification around Hindi will happen. Good luck getting Dravidians onboard with cultural imperialism from the north. To my mind the legacy of English colonialism allows no

The style was obnoxious I agree. If you're interested in buying an M1 MacBook — I wouldn't buy without being aware of the need to watch SSD writes. It seems like M1 devices with low memory have scenarios that they will use their S

As you point out, the exact properties that make binary search algorithmically fast can slow it down on real computer hardware. Branch predictors like low entropy (unsurprising) branches, but binary search is algorithmically fast because

To echo the other commenters, mining is pretty gentle on GPUs insofar as constant use goes. ETH is memory bandwidth limited, so cards can be heavily undervolted and underclocked (while overclocking memory) saving power without negatively af

I had a coworker with ADHD and I'm pretty sure he was prescribed stimulants although he was discreet about it. His patterns of focus were idiosyncratic, and occasionally he wrote code that just oozed "hopped up on addy" styli

Which points out the the real answer to the question: Nvidia doesn't want it solved. Not just that they don't care, but they're making more money now — so they don't want it solved.

I built a 6 disk TrueNAS Raid-Z2 box two years ago and though it was inconvenient to build vs buying something off the shelf, TrueNAS has been excellent. Does what it says on the tin and continually improving with each release. Their cloud

Completely agreed on the inevitability of that ask. At risk of extreme overkill the other way, something like Debezium [1] doing change monitoring dumping into S3 might be a viable industrial strength approach. I haven't used it in pro

Mentioned in another sub-comment, but Clojure's threading macros do this. They do it by making positional assumptions about the implicit argument: https://clojure.org/guides/threading_macros

Companies often want to release incremental, small features, not major UI overhauls. Speaking as a product leader who has been in a position to decide on these, I'm not opposed to major UI overhauls, but many that have been proposed

Another vote for prettier for JS/TS. The primary projects I work on we made some slight tweaks to the default style (wider line width) and though some people were unhappy about adopting a formatter, there have been zero beefs with pret
