Using observed latency, power of two choices, and requests in flight reminds me a lot of Finagle https://twitter.github.io/finagle/guide/Clients.html#p2c-lea...

Not sure I follow. The function coloring problem is still solved in that scenario. You can apply structured concurrency to any function (there’s no colors), and any function can co…

Really cool analysis and visualizations! Although there’s an interesting wrinkle with Mario Kart 8 + 200cc - most players don’t want speed over a certain level because you’re too f…

My Plex lifetime pass is still going strong

There was a later tweet clarifying that an update (presumably over-the-air) was released in 2021 but for some reason not all devices received it. Quote: Now it seems an update was …

I expected the top comment on hackernews to be something this pedantic and irrelevant to the content, and I was not disappointed

We don’t need to write a test that tests this function as a whole, we can test the parts we care about independently. What could possibly go wrong :)

Limited driver assist? Are all the videos of people using Tesla full self-driving on YouTube fake?

Or maybe the sad state is that there are still people dying every day from a pandemic THAT WE HAVE A SAFE AND EFFECTIVE VACCINE FOR.

I had to read that sentence a couple of times but I think it’s just poorly worded. He’s not saying that the person is old, he’s saying that the reason for wanting to fire them “you…
