> I am now wondering if anyone has done a graph db where the edges are embedding vectors rather than strict terms. Curious: how would you imagine it working if there were such a gr…

Modern, but sane syntax (readable), good defaults (strong typing, null safety...), good-enough runtime performance, good APIs and tooling out of the box, cross-platform (also hot-r…

Basho team was very kind to open source contributions in ~2011-12: I've written an open source Riak client in Dart, and they had sent me t-shirts (the quality ones that are rare to…

One of the postgresql client packages (posgres) is roughly 8 years old. That's how "client side" it ever was...

It sounds like you need a desktop workstation with replaceable extension cards, and not a mostly immutable laptop, which has different strengths.

I'm one the tab hoarders, opening many browser windows (each for different topic), 10-50 tabs each. Besides the grouping, I also like to freeze a topic for months, revisiting them …

Clearly not all, that would be a different announcement.

Why do you think it must be one thing or the other? It can be better than Javascript, used for Flutter and app development, and also cross-platform compiled and used for backend.

Nit: Approval voting (yes/no for each candidate) is easier to implement and also understand. I couldn't rank 82 people, but could yes/no them...

I've recently encountered two articles on this topic: - https://arielelkin.github.io/articles/digital-estate-planning - https://www.meganlyip.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/2019-11…

Note: the title is missing "unless the open source model evolves".

Is your work open source?

I remember a similar read. I think it also helped that armies become more disciplined, could march longer (coffee was a stimulant vs. alcohol), also the workforce had fewer errors.…

Depends on the definition of widespread use, but e.g. CockroachDB and YugabyteDB offer scaling of a subset of Postgresql features (and extending on the cluster capabilities). Never…

Do you have any further notes on the design and required accessories?

Wouldn't the increased swap load reduce the lifetime of the nvme drive?

I don't really care if somebody blocks a random port of sshd. I just don't understand why people are eager to block public https traffic, which is exposed to the public internet an…

Shouldn't you protect that endpoint, regardless of the traffic coming from tor or not? It is really cheap to get traffic through domestic VPN proxies, so a dedicated attacker will …

I use tor for exploring topics that I don't want to tie to my regular profile (ranging from professional software development, through health care issues, but also hobbies, fiction…

To be fair, waze is perfectly usable without using any account.

Proposal for web-scrapers to self-coordinate: monitor the response latencies and rate limit yourself based on that. (1) Limit your load / parallelism: do not use more than 4 thread…

Also: public money, public data. One can dream....

To be fair, tor is a really crappy network to orchestrate a DDOS attack. On the other hand some sites just can't take much traffic, especially if it is a consistent inflow of reque…
