Great article! I found the section on "GC Assists" very informative: > You can think of this like a tax that your goroutine must pay for allocating during a GC cycle, except that this tax must be paid upfront before the allocat

Sum types would add much needed compiler safety to returned errors and optional values. We often see nil pointer dereferences during runtime due to the usage of pointers as optional types.

It's very unlikely they store their passwords in plaintext. They were probably logging during login requests and didn't realize the whole request body was being logged. Can happen if you have a proxy/load balancer with loggin

This is not what happened. The tokens were mapped to user IDs and when people signed in, the db created new users which may have had the same IDs as old deleted accounts. When they restored the DB, these tokens pointed to other users and gr

HTTP 1.1 + json support for twirp opens up a lot of doors too. It's easy for the browser to natively hit a twirp service without the need for large packages such as https://github.com/improbable-eng/grpc-web .

I think you would be better off using more well known statistics for betting (ie. multivariate regressions, t-tests, etc..). These stats methods are less of a black box than ML (neural networks, etc..) so you'll be able to understand w

In person I use a thumb drive. You could encrypt the credentials using PGP and send it to a coworker if they are remote. Sometimes I just go on google hangouts and share my screen if I'm feeling lazy.

I don't see this as a comparison between Ryzen and Intel. He compares a custom built PC with a 2017 3.6 GHz 8 core Ryzen to an older 2013 2.3 GHz 4 core i7. He could have replaced his Ryzen CPU with a similar priced intel processor and

I used Polymer for a project a few months ago and I ran into browser support issues. Polyfills helped for most browsers, but my application wasn't working on iOS Safari. I'm not sure if that is still the case, but if so, I would c

I think it has to do a lot with moderation. If someone is going to take full doses of psychedelics multiple times per week, I have no doubt in my mind that they could go through serious mental health issues. But that is not to say that occa

How is this technology so much more accurate than Microsoft's Kinect? That's awesome! I love seeing the new guy develop a better product than a old giant.
