I'm surprised you're getting downvoted. Running youtube costs money, some creators spend a lot of time or even make a living out of their videos, that we, the users, willingly enjoy to watch. Youtube (just like Nebula) enables us

The first thing I would advise is to be as transparent as possible with the founder, you can't go on like this. Don't go in as the whole team, it'll probably be a hard time for him, you need to break the news but let him time

And still there is a 'follow us on FB' button on the EFF website and this specific page, which acts as a tracker (and as such gets blocked on Firefox).

Would be nice to get the savings in delta-v, I've no idea how to compute this.

GTO: ~11.5 km/s GEO: ~14 km/s (but you don't need that speed since the end of the cable is much slower, orbit period of ~28days instead of 24 hours) GEO <-> moon surface ~3.2km/s superbe reddit source: https:&#x2F

Indeed this would avoid the tricky 'land to a place where nobody can help you' part.

by t_fatus 7y ago
However since the moon period is not the same as a GEO period, maybe the fact that you could juste 'catch' the end of the cable before falling back to earth without having the speed to maintain at GEO could help you save some delt

Without considering the fact that the orbit of the Moon is not circular, this only helps reduce the delta-v needed to go from the surface of the earth to the surface of the moon by ~3.2km/s, but we still need ~12-14km/s to go to G

The point was to illustrate the fact that 'world domination' is a strange word to use when comparing against 3 countries only, leaving aside a lot of well educated students, some of who ranked as the best of their field - for inst

meanwhile European CS students, with their fellow students from the UK, Switzerland, Korea, Japan, [add whatever country you like except the 3 which are - on average - worst than the US in CS) are busy getting even more better than the aver

I'm quite surprised by some of these reasons: - 1 & 2: just use virtualenv, js has its own version manager too (nvm) which is very useful. This is one of the reason why only python2.7 is included in OSX, since most of seasoned pyth

You have EU funds to help bootstrap your company, either directly or via subsiding the institution which is funding you (even if it can be harmful), cheap or even free medical services for when you're getting sick and you don't ha

Totally agree with you. There is a huge benefit having a clean API which works for a variety of clients (native / mobile / desktop) and a corresponding variety of team members instead of maintaining 2 different view sets on your b

I'm not sure this is a fair comparison though since PMs usually are experienced when junior software engineers are common, and even more you can have SE switching to PM roles but the opposite is quite rare. But the reality remains that

Graphql and apollo add some overhead to your queries, both in your client and your API. And since you're still performing a POST query with each graphql query it's kinda logical to see that pure / well designed REST can outpe

by t_fatus 8y ago
as sgdesign said, you can write your own resolver function (which allows you to retrieve a particular field deep in the nested graph of graphql). It's very easy to create decorators to handle the usual permission cased on the field lev

Python (Django) support is good (appart from subscription), but not as out of the box as NodeJS indeed

by t_fatus 8y ago
One important thing to note: performance-wise, both in front-end when used with apollo, and in backend (you need to handle nested queries smartly) a good implementation of a REST api would probably be faster / lighter, but it should be

by t_fatus 8y ago
I'd like to add that correctly designed resolvers allow you: - to control very easily who can fetch what where it's fetched (permissions) - to fetch nested data when you need it without writing serializers - to help your frontend

I definitely don't think official software updates could be made not reversible. And worst brick a perfectly fine device. Would love to hear from the ppl downvoting too.

I really love the idea of an off-line voice assistant, however most of my tech friends in France and I feel that Snips (which is very visible on the press here) still has to deliver something tangible ( ). This might be the first time I wan

One thing I learnt to love about SPAs is how they distribute responsibilities: obv you get 3 layers: - your DB which stores your data - your backend which access your data, retrieve it safely, and delivers it without having to know anythin
