    I noticed during the olympics that they would hide the in-page volume controls during commercials. I hadn't seen that before. Fortunately it's still possible to mute via the tab co…

    Neither the Cessna nor many helicopters (autorotation) need power to land. I wouldn't want to get into one of these e-bricks!

    Yea, I noticed this same thing a couple weeks ago in a relatively small Michigan college town. Used to buy eggs at Aldis for 65 cents not that long ago.

    One of my main concerns is how easily and quickly can issues be debugged? Can you attach a debugger in production if necessary? I've seen people experiment with serverless and it s…
