I mean, if it worked for CVS... =D

and mandates that virtually all new projects not directly use borg/kubernetes.

you are right. made worse because there's an internal rule that you can't ever have two versions of a library in the monorepo ant the same time. it has to be one giant CL for the e…

OS updates are important sometimes. Security and all...

or you have crappy code that can only handle a dozen RPS. [facepalm]

thanks! yeah, lower-right corner. i added a walk-through that highlights it to help. =D

No cookies / tracking / logins / monetization, just a free PWA.

A tiny (yocto) git client for MicroPython microcontrollers / other memory-constrained environments ( It supports branches/tags, shallow clones and sparse checkouts (ie: only checki…

Yep. There is more than one terrible way to run a business.

KR stands for "Key Result". They're definitely not "things you do to achieve your goal". That's kind of the point of OKRs (in theory): To stop upper managers from dictating process…

OKRs in practice look suspiciously like waterfall software development. When you find yourself assigning ICs programming tasks by economic quarter, you've f-ed up.

That's in theory. In practice I knew of no ICs w/o OKRs assigned to them.

yep! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goodhart%27s_law

"Management [...] wants something that works and delivers economic value for customers and will help them continue to innovate and deliver EVA for them in the future." You're confu…

looks like there's an impl already: https://github.com/cbschuld/uuid-base58

if you have a cryptographically secure random function, just use that. no need to hash it!

100%. also, why re-invent python's already pretty decent datetime/timedeltas? and why not a proper python DSL? from redengine import minute, hour @app.run_every(hour + 20*minute) d…

that's very common in distributed databases. even traditional databases, it's very common to not have FKs on large tables, and just handle it in software. indexing billions or more…

SSE supports gzip compression, and a gzip-ed base64 is almost as small as the original jpg: $ ls -l PXL_20210926_231226615.* -rw-rw-r-- 1 derek derek 8322217 Feb 12 09:20 PXL_20210…

nice! i did similar, but used character frequencies in the remaining word sets to rank: https://github.com/keredson/wordle_solver

This was an afternoon project (when I got tired of the built-in animations of my new case LEDs). Thought others might enjoy. =)

That can be done in a non-sleazy way. For a long while there were effective caps on what you could earn as an IC, no matter how good. Everyone talks about 10x devs, but a decade ag…

Ouch, I'm sorry. When I get home tonight I'll check to see if GitHub supports loading=lazy.
