Does anyone have examples of people migrating from Go to Java? I suspect this has more to do with moving away from functional and/or reactive programming.

I've never seen such a big protest. The transit system in Hamburg was completely overloaded. People standing around Alster lake, you couldn't even get close to the actual point where the protest was scheduled to happen. Those prot

All of those are kind of bad, polling being the most practical, imho. Would be great if Postgres innovated in this area.

Just to clarify, not trying to correct anyone here, the third attendee was Bob Sproull, author of "Principles of Interactive Computer Graphics"?

The article says that 40 GW power was reached. And you are talking about MwH (i.e. energy ), so that is a misconception I think. Renewables share for the whole last week in Germany was 77.4%. https://energy-charts.info/ch

Makes a lot of sense to me. Intel's production cannot keep up and so it's only TSMC and Samsung with a big gap. I think some people will be surprised when TSMC starts taking more and more of the profit from the value chain in the

I was also surprised by that but there may be some slightly unusual background reason for that that simply doesn't get mentioned. Superficially it sounds like the author should just... do the HTTP request? Since they're waiting fo

So I think it is certainly _very_ unsure that Bitcoin will become the dominant crypto asset. I think there's some reason why it might. Kind of subtle and hand-wavy, but I think it's dysfunctionality in terms of leadership and &qu

So I feel the "Bitcoin is undesirable as a store of value because it's so volatile" point is not too fair. Firstly, fiat money can often experience instability which is quite extreme. Moderate instability, mostly in form of i

It's so odd that he would make these statements in an interview without the data or a press release published. I mean this should be information subject to mandatory publication with regards to their shareholders. Astra has been by far

I think about Bitcoin (and similar systems) primarily as a long term store of value. I think they are a pretty fundamental innovation in that space. What are good alternatives? Gold, cash, or ETFs have substantial drawbacks - especially in

Still remember how one German Islamist terror group just used their web-email provider's draft feature. They never 'sent' anything. There are often quite simple ways to circumvent this kind of thing.

In practice our infrastructure costs for scale-to-zero technology like Lambda and DynamoDB has been a lot lower. So much of the cost in reality comes from idling non-prd instances.

I like diversity, but "Fck white dudes lol" likely isn't helping anyone. Promoting diversity using affirmative language only should be possible. And white guys's feelings are important, too.
