Also, in real life, he's a genuine nice guy. I had lunch with him and Armon at a conference when they worked at Kiip, before they founded Hashicorp. Mitchell (to me) was the proper…

Turbopuffer was mentioned in the article.

I was so excited to get my S60 PHEV. Mechanically it is an amazing machine, great handling, great power, I rarely have to put gas in it. BUT. It is a nightmare with the technology.…

I've been a fan of blue jeans cables for 15+ years, I'm so glad they are the subject of this post. Blue Jeans just makes high quality stuff for solid prices and no BS.

This entirely. When I first read the title, I thought, lets see what they say about gRPC. gRPC is so much nicer working across applications compared to simple REST servers/clients.…

There are residents for sure in that corridor, but the residents are on Edwards AFB, and are fairly used to sonic booms. When I was on Edwards, there was still the last operating S…

My $0.02, just one opinion yada yada.. Charisma was a part of it sure, but ultimately people can look past that. Bush Sr. had zero charisma. The bigger part, amongst other things, …

My same thought. The software I'm required to write isn't necessarily fun anymore. I find more fun writing tools when I need them. I'll find myself needing a helper tool, I start w…

I considered the Lightning and I really wanted to like it, but for a truck, I’d still rather have a diesel. I have a 36 gal tank, I can tow 20k+lbs, and I can beat the hell out of …
