Our department is still in a world of ansible and VMs, so we can't yet take advantage of some of the work that's gone into making it easy to run in k8s. We're using Postgres for Temporal's persistence because we're…
We’ve been using temporal (the Python SDK) for some new projects at Internet Archive. It’s early days but we’re very excited. We run our own infrastructure, and we get more power-loss events or other intermittent issues…
In my career I've seen resources pulled away from QA teams (sometimes completely disbanding). It would be interesting to see things swing the other way.
I'm more or less waiting on the same thing, but wonder how many it will be able to pick up. The maintainer states somewhere that many of Pylint's remaining checks involve type-checking and inferring types for less than…

Does ActivityPub support hierarchical federation? Or could it be grafted on?
The meat and meatspace “replacements” are bridge technologies that reduce the suffering of animals and people respectively. Sometimes a vegan just wants a burger. Sometimes an exec just needs a little help to let go.…
You can get pretty far if you don't have much in the way of concurrent writes. Concurrent writes can be safe mind you, but that safety comes from locks that are polled against at increasingly long intervals (at least in…
I don’t think there is any scheduling. Each connection polls to see if the write lock is available up to the max busy timeout setting. The connection polls at these intervals: static const u8 delays[] = { 1, 2, 5, 10,…

Do you have some recommended reading? I enjoyed reading Neil Postman’s Technopoly, but any contemporaries you find particularly insightful?
The temporal dimension is just as important as space. Adding a year between eating meat and a plant-based diet also makes the alternatives more appealing. After being meat and dairy free for awhile my cravings changed.…
Your phrase "each layer of indirection" made the following analogy pop into my head: eating meat is like using an electron app running in a VM. I suppose "bare metal" would be if we could ourselves photosynthesize, alas.
While this link is very interesting, its advice doesn’t seem to completely pertain to the kind of “single deployment” APIs most of us are probably making. From the draft: “This document specifies best practices for…
Sure enough, the rich text formatting is copied. The workaround I have for this is the Get Plain Text app. It strips all formatting from copied text (either automatically or on a keyboard shortcut). Sad it's required…
I think you’re right that they need to be more affordable, and I think they will be as the market grows.
It can be surprising how little code you're actually using from the Go-Kit project, and how it's really more of a structure for your app. It will not save you time typing: each route can have a transport request decoder…
Fascinating! I don't think the article went into what physically encoded numbers into the probability streams to begin with, only mentioning that this is simple. Does anyone know about that? Is this happening on the…
If you can make a transition to a high protein, mostly plant-based diet work in the U.S., then that gives you an existential proof that it would someday be possible for countries further back in the consumption curve.…
