How is it marketing if it's from someone who just quit in objection?

I replied to your comment on my website, but for posterity here, yes, I do think you did a good job for the part about exiting when bestScore > 100. There's nitpicks, but this is fine! It makes sense, and nice use of a select over a

I have written channel code in the last week. It's part of the deal (especially with the context package). I'm just happy to see them restrained.

Seriously! This caused such a ruckus when I posted this 9 years ago. I lost some professional acquaintanceships over it! Definitely a different reception.

Author of the post here, I really like Go! It's my favorite language! It has absolutely nailed high concurrency programming in a way that other languages' solutions make me cringe to think through (await/async are so gross an

Adding an atomic counter is absolutely a great solution in the real world, definitely, and compare and swap or a mutex or similar totally is what you want to do. In fact, that's my point in that part of the post - you want an atomic va

Hi! No, I think you've misunderstood the assignment. The example posits that you have a "game" running, which should end when the last player leaves. While only using channels as a synchronization primitive (a la CSP), at wha

To clarify why I said the CPU is the same and the other poster says the A30 has a better CPU, both are true! Same architecture (Cortex A7), but the Mini Plus has 2 cores and the A30 has 4 cores.

I assume the basics are similar. The Miyoo Mini Plus has WiFi, which is great, but no GPU, so I assume you end up with different drivers. But the CPU is the same so everything else should be equivalent.

When someone says "20 years of doom predictions haven't come true", I charitably assumed that claim was about scientific consensus predictions, but perhaps I can't assume that everyone shares knowledge of what that is. S

How can this be such a top-voted answer? What? Without even going into the unsubstantiated assertion with #1, your comment on number 3 shows a dramatic misunderstanding of how compounding effects work. You can't use the last 20 years t

As a customer of Storj, this isn't something you'll need to worry about. We're integrated with Stripe and take credit cards and invoices. We will also take STORJ token if you want. If you are looking to provide storage space

This is really good feedback, thank you. The platform roadmap is available here: https://github.com/orgs/storj/projects/23 . Good question about Borg. We are supported by rclone natively, and I've seen so

Certainly there are differing opinions about cryptocurrency in general. In terms of "does the math work", you're absolutely right that charging $7/TB and paying $20/TB to our storage node operators is not sustainabl

Storj + Fastly is genuinely a pretty good combo. There are certainly some things Fastly does that we don't do (besides being more specifically a CDN, they also have compute@edge, etc). We have a good relationship with Fastly (e.g. htt
