    If you want "3x3 colored image", you would need 6x6 of the bayer filter pixels. Each RGB pixel would be 2x2 grid of ``` G R B G ``` So G appears twice as many as other colors (this…

    As a user, you may not appreciate six, but popular libraries like Django would've never made the jump without six.py;

    I think this is really unfair, in the current day and age, especially when there are "Open Weight Models" that are bending the definition of the FOSS. I don't have a skin in the ga…

    I like `gevent` but I think it may have been too hacky of a solution to be incorporated to the main runtime. "creating the first ever first-class language with green-threading at i…

    This is the answer; turns out that non-transformed links are the most generic data format, without any "compression" - QR codes or a third-party-intermediary - needed.

    Definitely agree that goroutines don't suck; it makes go into one of the only languages without "function coloring" problem; True N:M multithreading without a separate sync and asy…

    But the term itself was created and captured by the left from the beginning; Proudhon first used it; Marx popularized it; so in the history of terminologies it always had the meani…

    I think the parent's suggesting that they should be "one way" shortcuts; i.e. "# Heading" auto-formatting as a heading is a shortcut, and it doesn't allow you to go back and modify…

    Yes; Ubuntu did this from the beginning; (6.06 is the first I've used, and I still remember _when_ I used it), Python's introducing CalVer too (aptly numbered PEP https://peps.pyth…

    Yes, they tried to avoid the cliche by pointing at the cliche, but they weren't able to refute Our Incredible Journey. Though, this was a real product, with almost 10 years of oper…

    yes `== null` is quite convenient for the null or undefined check. In general, the whole `==` versus `===` is a silly argument in a typescript codebase, because if you know the typ…

    Looks like a lot of them are pinning to tags (which are not guaranteed to change) or SHA ( https://github.com/vitejs/vite/blob/8da04227d6f818a8ad9efc00... ) which is more hermetic.…

    Who's the target audience for this pricing that can afford this? The RUM pricing is indeed quite ridiculous. It feels quite ridiculous, especially if you are managing "soft" resour…

    DuckDB would've been a good example to be included, because it tries to target the need for horizontal scalability with an efficient implementation altogether. If your use case sta…
