If your question is if a single person running a private blog has the same fact checking resources as a big news corporation, the answer is no but I'm not sure why you'd need me to…

Choosing to include a properly attributed quote in a blog post is very different to saying something yourself.

I've only changed "redactions" into "updates / retractions" as that was a typo. Please take a look at https://www.nytimes.com/international/section/corrections for a small selectio…

This has nothing to do with Gruber fans or not. Your take just isn't as smart as you thought it is. Highly regarded newspapers, tv programs or books have updates / retractions all …

> David Pierce, at The Verge, put it on a very short list of iOS-exclusive indie apps that keep him from switching to Android. You are misattributing a quote.

You should probably fact check a little bit before throwing out claims like that. LibreOffice is run by a German non-profit ( https://www.documentfoundation.org ) and developed par…

That's very short term thinking. Building up local expertise, creating jobs and spending money locally instead of sending it oversees as licensing fees is most likely the better us…

> It's quite funny that Europeans are still discussing on what alternative they can use for MS Office in 2026 while the rest of the world is researching on frontier AI You don't ha…

> Personally I couldn’t care less which operating system the city chooses to use as long as it helps to save costs and increase efficiency. It's your personal opinion so that's fin…

As always it’s about the packaging not the individual components.

You don't need any Google scripts for indexing on your page. You can verify your domain Google Search Console and supply the url to the sitemap or wait for them to auto-discover yo…

I mean that in the nicest way possible, but you do not have the knowledge to operate such a website if that's the questions you are asking.

There’s a CRM called “Less annoying CRM” as I found out when searching for something like that a while ago. https://www.lessannoyingcrm.com/

Because if you say "News feed" people are thinking Facebook or Twitter feed. RSS is widely known as it was already integrated in browsers before as a "RSS" button if the site adver…

Having structured feeds of any kind is already a niche and much appreciated when it happens. How to call them correctly technically based on some specs is not the hill to die on. W…

I wouldn't say that's a "Marketing person" failure mode, there's enough open buckets, public mongodb or Elastic instances with wrong credentials.

We are talking about Postgres as a queue here, which is heavy on tiny writes, reads and churning tables. The point is just that a RDMS like Postgres scales very far as a queue, it’…

Translate it to “they are very rich”.

Even if you drop Google you'll still have a bunch of websites that now also will require age verification.

I think you know yourself that the parent poster didn't mean literally coins in a bank vault like Scrooge McDuck.

The point is that Postgres scales a very long way. Once you arrive at OpenAI / ChatGPT scale there's no shame in reaching for a dedicated queuing system.

Correct, what I meant was that SolidQueue was the first database-backed default adapter over the usually common Redis + Sidekiq combo for ActiveJob.

We are very heavily using Postgres as a queuing system in production for many years already, not just some quiet background tasks but with millions of tasks in the queue at any giv…
