If you read the article, they mention that they’ve reported the bug in previous versions of the beta and it has still not been fixed in the latest version. They’re cautioning their users against upgrading in two weeks when the release comes

Return To Office in early 2023 caused many people hired during the pandemic to uproot their family and move closer to their assigned office. Some of these folks are now being told that the office they moved closer to is not a “Hub” for thei

Are you trying to contradict or agree with the post you replied to? That’s exactly what they are saying.

I’m located in the US. Of the last 4 pieces of media I’ve bought on Amazon, one was a misprint that should have been destroyed, two were marked as for sale only in India, and one was an EU market copy. All were marked as new. I returned all

I started with an apple keyboard. I bought a Das in the early 2010s. When the das quickly ran into issues, I got an HHKB pro 2, which I’ve taken in my bag every day to every job I’ve had and I use at home[0]. Your comment just made me reali

You realize that Ada and Objective C predate Object Pascal, and Erlang came out in the same year as it, right? I would worry less about new ways of doing the same thing and more about client generation/retention. Plenty of companies ar

The contract testing is something I didn’t know about, I’ll have to look into it! We have lots of unit, integration, and live canary testing, the postman usage was only during oncall/operations, so we weren’t using any of those neat fe

I agree that postman has a moat. I think it’s important to say that every company has a moat in that they’re organized, located somewhere, and have customers. The size of the moat varies. We can treat a moat as a scalar value of dollars to

I don’t think you understand how moat is used in this context. A moat isn’t impossible to cross, just harder to cross than a lawn. Also, I don’t think you can saw two features are the same unless the quality is the same. Two sms apps are no

It does, but the support is not great. There’s active work to make it better. We don’t use WebSockets so that might be why my colleagues didn’t have too much attachment to postman. We have a list of bash functions we import into our zshrc&#

Does postman do anything curl doesn’t? When I was on onboarding at a job my pair started teaching me postman, which ended with me teaching them curl and them dropping postman. If you need to share queries, put them in version control!

The most interesting part of this paper to me is that they let the agent guess how efficient it’s own solutions were and only had the model experimentally verify it’s guesses in 0.002% of cases. This allowed the model to search much faster

You’re rude, which is why people aren’t responding. Marc is a well respected engineer who has worked on multiple foundational services at AWS and probably doesn’t want to go on the record saying he’s sick of rust fans, so he made the essay

I used all of those components in my undergrad less than 5 years ago. I can’t remember what we used a 555 timer for, but we built calculators, EKGs, and AM radios among other things in the labs. At the time I was mad that we were using TTL

I went to a cal state and paid 7k a year in tuition. 3 years later I am making around 300k TC at a FAANG. Everyone who graduated with me seems to be doing pretty well judging by LinkedIn.
