It is also difficult to measure this in the face of ever shifting baselines. Anthropic is built on AI from the ground up. I'm not picking a side, but Anthropic getting a 2x increase is different bar than some random enterprise shippi

Go back a little bit further to another Morgan Freeman movie - Se7en (1995) and a big plot point was that it is unthinkable for big brother to be keeping records of what library books people are checking out. Times sure have changed...

I don't disagree with the advice (especially for long lived tokens), but query parameters are encrypted during transit with https. You still need to worry about server access logs, browser history, etc that might expose the full reque

It is definitely a new frontier. How do you review a game that isn't reproducible? Similarly how do you do play testing? You don't get the same "shared experience" outside of multiplayer and people experiencing it tog

You can use the same techniques except with the smaller int64 space - see e.g. Snowflake ID - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snowflake_ID

Or similarly the difference between reading/listening to a foreign language vs. writing/speaking one. Knowing how to read code or learn algorithms or design is different than actually writing it. The difference between the theor

> "Underlying ideas" means cherry-picking opinions that suit your fancy while ignoring those that don't. Yes, that is how terminology evolves to not meet a rigid definition that was defined in a different era of best-pract

You can remove JSON fields at the cost of breaking your clients at runtime that expect those fields. Of course the same can happen with any deserialization libraries, but protobufs at least make it more explicit - and you may also be more

The request / data fetching is interesting in how "easy" it is to write. I did basic perusal of the examples, but I'd be interested to see what it looks like with rate-limited endpoints and concurrent requests. Another

I felt the same - have to relearn/lookup everything every time I went back to a project or wanted to do some operations that are simple to describe in SQL but I couldn't wrap my mind around e.g. using multi-indexed dataframes &amp

I do the same, though my muscle memory is `1=1` instead of `true`. Of course then you get editors/linters/coworkers that always point out that the 'true' is unnecessary. This also doesn't work with ORs (just swap t

Sharding, pre-allocating leases of blocks of tickets across available resources, and eventual consistency. You don't need to keep the UX transactionally correct; you are able to say "0 tickets remaining" and then a minute or

I would also say that could account for the download count differences between the projects. Django may still be used for more monolithic applications whereas Flask and FastAPI may be the choices for smaller-scoped microservices resulting

This type of stance is what de-popularized the Elm language. Don't get me wrong - I wish the best for both languages and am thoroughly impressed by the work of their creators. I can see that it must be a hard thing to balance.

Java Mission Control [0] has a button to toggle for displaying the profile as thread roots or method roots for this purpose. I am not imaginative enough to come up with a visualization that shows both (maybe utilize background color or ano

As a university project I created a Morse code transmitter and receiver circuit that used the same type of LED on both sides. It worked pretty well up to a few inches apart.

I assume this is a good spot to give a shout-out for the Grimm, Grimmer, Grimmest podcast - kid-friendly story-telling podcast great for long car rides. The author likes to point out deviations between original stories and later re-telling

I would say the reverse is true though - great teachers are able to spark interest on a subject that students may otherwise not care about. But I agree that that expectation shouldn't be the baseline.

The basics: Good picture quality & resolution (e.g. LG panel), no (or replaceable) smart features, no forced ads / tracking, fast startup, wide variety of inputs would be bonus though the usual options are fine. I'm less imagi

I've thought the same quite a bit. On one end of the spectrum you could use something like SVG if there were standard or dominant tools used to import/export, but then you lose the ascii readability benefit of tools like this, dot

It doesn't include validators for TOML and INI, but if you're doing JSON and YAML, I would take a look at using or building upon CUE ( https://cuelang.org/ ). It is a different take on schema definition (plus more)

Sasa Juric makes this point in 'Elixir In Action' and some of his talks, where in other languages you need to pull in these other technologies near the start, whereas in Elixir you can use the built-in primitives until you start r

I've seen it alternate between releases. It gets slower for a release or two as they add features and then another release adds several performance improvements (and it is noticeable). I was also initially very skeptical of the new UI
