    The other responses answer your direct question, but I was confused about similar flows when learning about SAML so I'll comment in case this is helpful. SAML is just an authentica…

    This was my gut reaction when I first learned about graphql, but in practice when I used it it didn’t end up being an issue (although we didn’t have to run at particularly large sc…

    > This makes the piracy route become more and more attractive again - and I don't like that this is the case. I want to pay people for their content. People like to say this, but, …

    Would you normally recommend running tekton in its own k8s cluster, or within the same cluster that runs production workloads? (Particularly if running in something like gke or eks…

    The pavement and roads belong to cars . It's a joke to say anything else. If a scooter can get hit by a car and mess up the car, we've gotta do something about this nuissance! If a…

    IIRC the latest revisions of sb50 in California would have rezoned the whole state to allow fourplexes (while still upcoming even higher to 5 stories along transit corridors). But …

    Even if the cost premium wasn’t an issue, who has the geometry in their living room to be able to take advantage of an 8k resolution? Even 4K is hard to take advantage of in a livi…

    Biggest annoyance with the iMac though is you can’t, say, work from home with your work laptop and plug it into the screen. This is another case with macs where the situation 8 yea…

    On this topic I am always surprised to notice, walking around downtown SF on a weekday that literally every single parking space is taken up by a work truck, like a contractor, rep…

    Yes but I’ve never seen someone new to programming that bothered trying to figure out pyenv or similar. Even a lot of moderately experienced devs don’t bother with it. I guess it’s…

    It's honestly terrible for newbies. If they try to use it, there's no pip included. So then they easy_install all their libraries which installs things into different places than m…

    I've been using iPhone and MacOS for years and successfully picking & choosing different parts of the ecosystem. Sure, the defaults are usually set up to opt you into their own pro…

    Is the CEO really the best person to ask about such in the weeds details of the codebase, like how the choice of web framework is working out? The CTO seems like a much better choi…

    Interesting. Yeah, obviously the vested value is what matters to people at the end of the day. In that case, maybe some kind of conversion view would be useful? Like splitting up: …

    I guess I'm the only one that thinks USB-C is actually better? The biggest win is that now I can use a single dongle for power, displayport to my monitor, and connection to a USB h…

    I find the site super helpful, so thanks for your work! Have you considered letting people also report refresher equity grants? It would be interesting to see how they vary at diff…

    I never understood this concept at all. Is this a metaphor somehow, or do you literally think everyone is secretly conspiring to make life more complicated for themselves and their…

    It’s sad that the idea of people being able to get by and live a comfortable life without the benefits from a full time job is so far outside the Overton window that it’s not even …

    This is a pretty condescending take, and doesn't really seem rooted in anything substantial. The core of your argument revolves around the inevitability of needing to drop down to …

    I'm talking about literally day 1, not just like the first phase of the company. If a startup is exactly a single day (or single week) ahead of the competition such that the produc…

    Eh. Rails is fine, and lots of other things are fine too. Rails is amazing on day 1, even week 1 of a new project, vs piecing together your favorite separate smaller libraries into…
