    Man their tutorials are so good and make me want to use this.

    I've got an app that uses that to upload to S3. It's pretty straightforward.

    We use Vapor3 and the language is ok, but the deployment story (docker/k8s, for us) is a nightmare and has caused us unending drama. Things seem a little better with newer versions…

    I was reading this and thought it sounded familiar. A few months ago I needed a human readable bytes format, ended up on that stack overflow article and, plot twist, copied the whi…

    I agree. I also think commit messages get more detailed the further along the process is, and the less code you change. “Added unit tests and stub out api” (50 files) vs “fix bug w…

    I've seen plenty of chargers at malls and Walgreens and other areas. Usually it's a ChargePoint or blink app, which connects through your phone. One of the local malls subsidizes t…

    There isn’t much eco-friendly about cement.

    How many dirt bikes do you think someone is buying? Is your concern that after being on UBI for a year someone will have 12 dirt bikes and a starving child? If 99 people don’t buy …

    The IEA forecast has been so wrong it suggests malice.

    It looks so weird and cool when it's wet that I wonder if they did it on purpose. It delights strangers who see it the first time.

    And I believe it's only required if you offer. "sign in with facebook" or "sign in with google" link. If everything's self-contained (ie Netflix), no issues.

    You’re conflating units, I think. The long range Model 3 has a 75 kWHr battery pack, and goes about 300 miles. That equates to about 250 wh/mi. This bus has a 374 kWHr battery pack…

    Unless I'm blind, I don't actually see the notebook checked into the GitHub repo.

    It can. You can plug a Tesla into any 110 outlet. (It's just 4x slower than a 30A/220).

    I'd check out The Expanse. The core is a world rooted in relatively real-world engineering, and the fantastical builds pretty slowly (and is generally terrifying).

    Shared Lyft is amazing. Half the price at least.

    I've ordered pizza to my apartment 100 times and never had an issues, but Uber Eats drivers consistently can't find it. It's a nice service, but literally anything would be better.…

    WordPress isn't really targeted at single-user blogs for technical people... it's targeted at an environment where you can have multiple people writing blog posts and doing design …

    Oracle had this limitation, too, or at least it did a few years ago.

    That’s pretty rough from a financial audit perspective. For budgeting purposes I’ve tried to find a full list of my iTunes purchase, and couldn’t find it in the store. Didn’t think…

    How would it? Godaddy can't buy the domain until General Availability, so they can't guarantee that you'll get it. Someone else could buy it first.

    There is also a huge difference between $150k with no/manageable debt, and $150k with a lot of debt. Some people can't figure out how to budget even with a high income. "I deserve …
