Well, not universally. It’s a tradeoff. If what you said was universally true Apple wouldn’t exist; Spirit Airlines wouldn’t be bankrupt, etc.

Honestly, despite being Electron VSCode manages to outspeed every other editor on my machine (by qualitative metrics), even stuff like Zed (which manages to lag on stuff VSCode doe…

They are producing about a third of what Micron (smallest of big three) produces, and plan on being on par with them in ~4 years.

Seconded, the only 1.2 GB electron app I’ve made had a ~500MB ML model’s weights embedded in it

Any price increase can be considered inflationary. They usually don’t come down by all that much

I see, interesting.

The US public debt is $39 trillion. The figure quoted by the parent comment is $100 billion

You can't call "trickle-down economics" a strawman without actually naming what is different between it and "supply-side economics". Otherwise I have to assume that people are just…

You should include other countries for reference. The US has approximately 390x that amount of debt (only 5 times the population) and the average person is economically much worse …

What is the difference between how trickle-down economics is portrayed vs. the actual ideas of supply-side economics? You have to specify how / in what way it's a strawman

I mean, one is a name of a policy used by supporters, and the other is another name of the same policy used by critics? Name an actual difference?

US law sets the breakpoint for when a company is considered a monopoly at 30% of a market. It's never actually enforced, of course, but may be worth noting.

Ah, interesting.

Wasn't saying it would be hard to scale at all, I just mentioned the highest RPS customer-facing system I could think of off the top of my head.

Tunnel vision, probably

OpenAI has been way more aggressive about capacity than anyone else (as evidenced by the fact that it was them that caused the RAM price spike)

Having more servers does help more than you think though. us-east-1 is the AWS region with the most downtime by a large margin simply because it’s the region with the highest deman…

The highest I could think of is WhatsApp, which gets ~1.6 million RPS on average, and they use MQTT

Looks good overall. My main complaint is that the animations don't all seem to go together - the "Jelly" style of the toggle switch or button (which has squish animations that resp…

The article in the comment I was replying to wasn't talking about age verification laws, they were talking about "parents protecting kids", a.k.a. content filtering. As for the oth…

Well that's kinda the whole idea of having an "adult content" tld; it's so you can block all .xxx domains instead of having to create a blocklist of sites. Like an opt-in nsfw flag…

The language also does not support goroutines, locks, or channels, except through using the C threading libraries. (I think the original author meant type safety when they made tha…

The answer is apparently "you don't": - Everything in the language is statically allocated or stack-allocated. You have to call a malloc / free function to get heap allocated thing…
