Audiogalaxy dev here. That was my favorite part of the design. One of my other favorite parts was that prioritized matches based on how similar their domain name was to yours, so a lot of times you would end up grabbing files from someone

Remember what the Luddites actually did? They sabotaged the machines that were disrupting their livelihoods. If AI is as disruptive to large numbers of workers as some people think it will be, keep in mind it's a lot easier to destroy

Just curious, what's your background in batteries? From my understanding, sodium based batteries are safer than lithium, but I would defer to anyone with real expertise in the subject.

Yes, 100% agree. We've spent so much time chasing down what makes our build slow. Obviously that is less important now, but hopefully they've laid the foundation for when our code base grows another 10x.

This is amazing. Everyone that picked TS for a big project was effectively betting that someone would do this at some point, so it's incredible to see it finally happen. Thanks to everyone involved!

The only announcement I want from AWS about databases is that the price for RDS is going down. Not that they have new chip that is more expensive but offers better price/performance, but that my bill is actually going to drop. I don&#x

Early on in a community, there often aren't enough data points to cover other possible metrics. With that in mind, starting somewhere is better than not starting at all — measuring engagement is a useful way to begin understanding what

Oh, this is a great writeup. I co-host a podcast on outages, and over and over we see cases where circular dependencies end up making recovery much harder. Also, not using a staged deployment is a recipe for disaster! We just wrapped up the

I'm not sure there is quite enough detail in this post to make a whole episode, but if any more details about the bug come out we will definitely cover it.

Ah, good idea. We just launched this last month and haven't given the website a lot of love yet. In the meantime, try https://downtimeproject.com/podcast/feed

Huh, that's interesting timing. I co-host a podcast that walks through notable outages, and just yesterday we released an episode about Auth0's 2018 outage: https://downtimeproject.com/podcast/auth0-silently-l

This is the best book on algorithms I've ever read. Highly recommended, but please buy a copy. Perhaps the mods can change the url to point to Amazon instead.

Does anyone know what Reddit's AWS monthly bill is these days? I suspect they would be closer to profitability if they ran their own hardware, but I haven't seen any numbers recently.

I just found your app on the App Store. Any chance you could give us a demo school ID/password we could play with?
