I have a Hisense HiReader Pro and it's awesome + super usable for actual day to day phone things on wifi, but the cell reception overlaps with a single LTE band in the US that's not really usable around where I live.

I have a HiSense HiReader Pro that I picked up right when it came out. It's absolutely loaded with nonsense + makes zillions of requests to Chinese IPs and it takes ages to figure out how to disable / block it all. It also only wo

Seems like this is more of a "PostgreSQL distribution with search extensions" than "ParadeDB is an open source ElasticSearch alternative built on Postgres..." Interesting, sure, but confusing marketing/positioning a

Also anecdotally in this group - switched from AT&T yearly prepaid (25$/m or so) to post-paid Verizon because it got worse and worse over the three years I had it. Throttling got significantly worse over time and had a number of su

Many of the points in this article are entirely a matter of implementation, not inherent to or ingrained in any particular architectural choice. You can just as easily build a highly modular and decoupled monolith as you can a tightly coupl

I used to use mithril for almost every new project I'd start, but I've switched over to using React w/ Hooks for just about everything for two main reasons: - toolchain support is a lot less finicky and better supported (you

> TC2 is based on the 2017 TF2 source code leak ... Has Valve ever made a statement on this? Sounds like a terrible idea to me / this could be taken down on a whim by Valve.

The third point is extremely close to how trucks have always been built. Body-on-frame construction has been prevalent in the automotive industry for a very long time. Ever see a crazy classic car body dropped on top of a truck frame, i.e.

Is it just me or did apple just bungle this entire announcement by not announcing a consumer facing ARM MacOS device, only a hot-rodded Mac Mini with an iPad Pro chip inside. How many devs actually have the setup in place to use a non mobil

I'm pretty sure google allows you to do this though, so Apple isn't bypassing any "rules" on android.

by doing this, do you suggest also tying your dependencies versions to those packages with the distro version you're running?

I absolutely agree. The one time I had the great misfortune of building software for windows I was extremely happy to see Go worked at all. Linux and OS X largely work the same way due to their shared Unix-ness and pretty much everyone I’ve

I’m pretty sure all roads above 55mph in the US are restricted access (exit/entrance ramp only) interstates - not highways with stoplights and intersections.

VINs roughly follow patterns, so if you know one, you can figure out many other cars with very little brute force effort. vinwiki probably has a guide explaining them somewhere if you search

This is neat, but the way blueprintjs handles Hotkeys is my absolute favorite of anything I've used. https://blueprintjs.com/docs/#core/components/hotkeys It's essentially a JS decorator `@HotkeysTa

Kinda anecdotal, but the one in Richardson (DFW) is almost always packed. Easily one of my favorite brick and mortar stores anywhere.

Go, Postgres and a dirt simple React/Typescript/Parcel app as the frontend. 99% of the time you won’t need anything else.

Ah, I've been assuming that a vCPU == a CPU hyperthread since forever, hadn't realized that changed.

Both EPYC and Intel chips behind these? So is there potential for much different performance between the same sized instance based on chance?

Yes, and I would imagine that could only be done inside of the Great Firewall, which I’m pretty sure is operated by the Chinese Government?

I didn’t see this anywhere in the article (maybe I missed it), but because this utilizes the Great Firewall, it’s undoubtedly done by the Chinese government, right?

I agree! That's why I think it's so interesting. Aside from bugfixes, I'm sure they could have done absolutely nothing since launching and be profitable and useful.

It's pretty incredible to think that for all the billions of dollars around Slack it's still fundamentally the same product with the same value add that it was when it first launched. Sure, maybe it's faster or more efficient

empty interface{} and struct tags really shine when used as a library author, or authoring a bit of extremely reusable code that’s pervasive throughout a codebase. Think things like json encoding (entirely réflection based), or writing a se
