Really enjoying seeing these really capable SMLs. Note that on HF they state: "This model was not trained on tool-calling or agent-based programming data. We therefore do not recom…

This is very addictive! Love it.

Accidentally burning money is a very low probably event. Forgetting passwords or any type of memorized secret is the most likely default outcome, and chance only increases with tim…

"Why you should build your next app with a graph database" Please don't. Graph databases have only a few niche use cases which, even then, in most occasions, can be adequately cove…

How would you efficiently keep continuously updated complex metrics (aggregations, windowed functions, etc) calculated on top of unbounded/streaming data using a database? I'm not …

IMO using Kafka for long term storage is not the greatest idea. It is expensive to keep CPU and RAM constantly on top of data that it going to be cold most of the time. There is no…

I believe it needs to be a 10ms tick.

I wasn't aware. Thanks.

Google Cloud Datastore?

You are right, I oversimplified it in my comment. People could still trade using euros. But I guess the only way to get more currency in the country would be via foreign trade. Ban…

I'm sure they would, but once they are independent, they can't legally use the Euro. Would they even continue to be Spanish citizens and be able to travel freely in the Schengen ar…

What does this even mean: "declared independence"? Have they ordered borders to be closed? Bank accounts to be frozen until new currency is introduced? Have people started throwing…

We have an interesting offer in Portugal. If your cable+internet+phone+mobile company is www.nos.pt you get a card that offers you 2 for 1 tickets at their cinemas. If you go alone…

The -Type System- is turing complete, not talking about the language itself. So your first few comparisons are not quite fair.

> Punitive punishment does nothing to stop bad practice from happening That is highly questionable.

While I agree with you, there is always the option of firing people responsible for the decisions.

This. A lot of long term research worldwide is publicly funded and the status quo of the scientific journals (that once had their place in a world with high communication barriers …

That hypothesis does not seem to apply to Lisbon, Portugal so far. We have now around 60km of dedicated bicycle paths in Lisbon (not just cycle lanes, but actual separated paths) a…

Interesting! When I first looked at gRPC I missed the option(google.api.http). Are you aware of the reason why REST mapped gRPC is not possible in GAE (http 1 only on the server en…

I think I like gRPC, but have several reservations regarding replacing REST with it. REST web services often return multiple mime formats, not just pure structured data. Some servi…

Server side automation of multiple kinds (not just tests): screenshots, advanced crawlers, etc.

Yes! We have been asking for this for a while now when asked for feedback about what we would value. Managed ElasticSearch is next on our wishlist.
