Is Slack CPU and memory usage actually a problem? Sure, developers complain about it but they almost always have powerful PCs

So far most of the datacenters are built in very convenient places and people will start to build them in inconvenient places like Sahara or Mongolia way before they will building …

Building nuclear-powered and solar powered datacenters in places with low population density will still be cheaper. Do you think Mongolian government won't allow China to build dat…

The only purely military thing is rockets and everything space related, there's just no way private businesses would've poured so much money into it Computers and internet being st…

Language is relevant, Haskell or Scala written in functional style uses quite foreign terms and paradigms. Like, wtf is Kleisli arrow?

Twitter's back-end is written in Scala, but they used "better Java" style so an average developer should have no problems making changes Anyway, what kind of features Twitter (or a…

Or there's a mole in Ukrainian intelligence who sold him out

It was the default method of contacting the dealers on Russian darknet when everything was a just a message board (hell, it was available without TOR) and not a proper marketplace

Russian Gosuslugi and Ukrainian Diya coming to US!

That's impressive. ClickHouse is great but it's a huge PITA to operate on-prem so you guys will be rolling in them moneys. Speaking of, maybe you know someone who had to stay in Ru…

I don't get their strategy. While they are an true tech company - the marginal cost of servicing next client is essentially zero, their network effect is limited to a single city s…

Their products were feature-complete a long time ago. Why are they still in a growth stage and not making profit which should be easy for essentially brokers?

I wonder what's the performance and cost hit of storing data in S3?

API schemas and test suites are usually stored as code in some sort of SCM. I googled "postman maven" and "postman gradle" and found nothing official so I guess they have nothing e…

How many of them used the word "crypto"?

The SaaS part being the offering for creating developer.acme.com type pages?

Some time ago I learned that Postman Labs that produces a nice but not-a-rocket-science HTTP client raised $433M at multi-billion valuation and has 500 employees. Isn't it astonish…

A co-op formed by big 3 cloud providers flush with cash and put in maintenance mode.

Apparently, they decided that selling merch is more important than implementing gRPC support.

Selling developer tools to corporate managers is an interesting idea let's see how it works out. Reminds me of Rational/IBM.

Isn't it obvious? Postman Labs is bloated and overvalued, compared to what JetBrains does their product is just nothing.

And a lot of startups that shouldn't exist got financed.

They do have other tools with the word API in them but I kinda doubt their usefulness because of gems like "it will move you left on Gartner quadrant" all over Postman "Labs" websi…

That's why I mentioned "incoherent and probably useless other tools". Apparently, they launched some sort of no-code tool for stringing APIs together but still not ready with their…

Obvious answer - unemployed.
