You're proving the parent's point. Electricity is fungible so it will be easier to replace natural gas used for electricity than the millions of homes heated by it.

They want it to die. They don't want to keep supporting Heroku but they don't want the bad press of killing it outright. Or at least they're pivoting from independent hosting to an enterprise value add for SalesForce. Or they

Yep, this reads like they want Heroku to quietly die off but don't want to make a hard deprecation announcement.

Parent comment seems more focused on the probability/distribution than in the reasons why. The anecdote seems true from my experience as well; people tend to either break their phones often or very rarely/not at all. Of course it

There's a strong argument to be made that in the American system this is a feature and not a bug. The whole thing is designed to make it difficult to make big changes, especially unilaterally. Whether the system is serving us well or n

My experience with a 16" M1 MacBook Pro is that the fans don't come on unless I'm running games anyway. You could likely achieve an essentially "fanless" experience on the 14" M1 Macbook Pro as on the Air.

If you're going that far back you might as well bring up the Revolutionary War and the war of 1812 and ask why the US isn't still at odds with the UK.

This is also one of the use cases that Vue targeted specifically and it greatly accelerated its adoption. Vue positions itself for anything from jQuery replacement all the way to a full SPA and everything in between.

I'm not super familiar with HTMX but lots of people in the Elixir/Phoenix/Liveview world are using Alpine JS for these types of problems. Liveview(HTMX analog) for anything with data and state that needs to go to and from the

Consider that for a lot of shops and restaurants demand might be inelastic over the course of the week. If everyone in town is closed on Sunday and consumers don't have convenient access to other options it's likely that demand wi

Probably because interviewing is highly subjective. The advice in this article could be used as part of a great interview or part of a terrible one. It depends on how the interviewer uses it.

How to change meta tags: 1. What is the current general standard. 2. Does our site do what we want it to do? -> Yes? Then we don't need more meta tags. -> No? Go to 3. 3. Are meta tags part of how to accomplish what we want?

When I look at the article two things stand out to me: 1. The author is focusing on the first 10 lines, not the whole document. 2. Their "perfect answers" have the candidate essentially reciting the reference docs verbatim. That t

Not to mention they're perfectly referenceable. If I need to set up a new HTML doc and add the meta tags I can easily find everything I need on MDN and a quick Google search for best practices. Anything more specific (like Apple specif

What do you find lacking in the Phoenix docs? I've always been impressed with the docs in the major Elixir and Phoenix libraries.

I wouldn't call it crap. It certainly has limitations, but for many projects those are an acceptable tradeoff for lower friction. For many projects those limitations cost less than not launching the project at all. Heroku definitely ha

From a code/business standpoint this absolutely makes things easier to report on personal transactions. My point was the thing stopping Venmo from reporting on your personal transactions is not technical. As soon as the government tell

That would constitute tax fraud right? And intentionally bypassing the reporting built into the platform surely increases your culpability. If you're doing a relatively low volume you might get away with it, but you are committing a cr

This is asinine. If the government wants to tax all transactions you make they'll tax all transactions you make. This doesn't make that any easier. This is the government adding reporting requirements for transactions that are alr

This is not an MIT or open source license then. What if I adapt your code under MIT and distribute it. Can someone else then use it commercially? Or do they pay you? Or me? The answer is your license either isn't open source or it is e
