First, congrats on getting healthy! Secondly, since you're presenting this as a portfolio entry, I have some open, honest feedback. I quickly reviewed the repository and there are …

Kafka, unlike Mongo DB, relies on recovery/replication instead of fsync: https://jack-vanlightly.com/blog/2023/4/24/why-apache-kafka-... Kafka has never tried to hide that fact and…

This ^^^ My answer to this question would have been a VERY weak "Yes" before the Twitter disaster. Now that we're seeing the true Elon alongside real engineer feedback, it's a HARD…

That totally makes sense. I think you'd have a miserable time supporting this at scale if a re-compile is needed every time a new workload requires a tweaked setting or two. Config…

I disagree in this case. Normally I'd fully agree with you but I think this animation style works really well given their use-case.

This is not really surprising considering that it's basically a (very cool) marketing article for their equipment.

They explain pretty clearly that this is static memory allocation. In other words, a calculated amount of (mostly) contiguous memory is allocated at startup and used very carefully…

Per the article: "(Currently it’s determined even before startup, at compile-time, but startup is the important point since that is the first time that memory can be allocated.)" S…

Can you imagine the CI build time bloat? I'm getting anxiety just thinking about it

I don't know if I'm following. Are you saying you don't believe this change is a big deal for the climate?

How do you figure? Http proxies support various common cache invalidation strategies such as hash-TTL and ETags

That could be interesting. Update us on how it goes :D

No offense but just "running a neural net" is rarely trivial

What useful software exists which works on no data at all? Even a calculator requires data

Moderna is well known to have more injection site pain and greater immune response for the second dose but it's showing vastly greater efficacy percentages than all other manufactu…

That's why most programs like this send both a social worker and police officer. The social worker initially takes the lead but if things escalate past the point that the social wo…

Yea they even mention that traditional policing didn't go away, they are just now focused on crime

What issues did you run into on the JVM with Java/Scala? I spent 5 years working up and down the entire akka stack so I'm curious to learn from your point of view. Also did you try…

Local NAS with offsite backup is far more resilient than any physical item onsite. One house fire and that album goes up in smoke.
