No, back in the day C was used for everything. Vim was not written in C because it needed to wring every last bit of performance out of text editing. Rewriting everything in rust "for memory-safety" is a false tradeoff given the m

There's a contingent of rust fans that show up on every story about C – their premise is that C code is unsafe and most safety-critical C code should be rewritten in rust. Fil-C is new and is a viable competitor to rust, that's wh

It's a false premise, cities do not grow endlessly. If you look at other cities they're actually losing population – NYC for example.

Well the problem with SF is less density and more than half of it is single-family home neighborhoods with zero amenities. Anti-growth people will point to neighborhoods like Glen Park, NoPa and Noe as "SF" while forgetting most o

What did you/do you use the semantic web for?

by vorador 1y ago
It really feels like all these concerns about semantic everything belong to a previous era of the web. I remember arguing with people 20 years ago who believed RDF and the semantic web was going to take over, but the use cases never materia

This is just pushing the externalities to the residents. It takes several months for airbnbs to get banned, and it's tough for smaller cities to get the bans enforced. There must be a better answer than "pass a law so the american

It could also be misguided security guidelines – because of things like caller id spoofing where scammers would spoof one of their actual numbers to lull people into a false sense of security

Is this the end of fog creek? I remember they had shut down most of their services by the time their rebranded to glitch. I wonder if anything is left of the company besides Joel's blog posts.

Most poor people don't own their house and often don't have a car – if you do own both you're middle class.

The competitive advantage is not physiological. Following your reasoning, that'd mean an F1 driver's competitive advantage is how fast they can push the pedals to get to 300kmph. The real advantage is how fast you can navigate dan

This is very wrong. These guys go downhill on small country roads very fast – sometimes over 100 kmh. You need deep riding skills to handle these speeds without getting injured.

Do you run a multicloud system too? In case the AWS account gets shut down by billing issues?

This is very unhelpful. There's a difference between "someone fatfingered a command and brought this mysql machine down" and "our cloud provider shut down a core feature for our account". When you design a new syste

Also the ad where mother nature visits apple park to check in on their green targets. Did she park her car at their huge garage too? ( https://archive.curbed.com/2017/4/13/15274024/apples-new-cam... )

I've heard rumors that lots of these premium hosts are running on top of AWS/GCP which means they have much worse unit economics than Cloudflare.

Back in my day you needed a PhD in CSS to center a div vertically. We used to pore over the freshest W3C drafts with excitement. You don't see that anymore since jQuery.

Correct – I forgot to mention that!

Yeah – you're exactly right. This is because a relatively obscure tax called the AMT ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternative_minimum_tax ) often kicks in when you exercise your options.

Genuine question, when did you learn to play? Even 10 years ago entry-level solidbody guitars where quite good, and they keep getting better. Things like CNC manufacturing, tighter tolerances etc. really improved the quality of the average
