Scribe aaS? ;)

It's pretty useful when you have some distribution layer (i.e. some pubsub system) Consider 10-15 applications running on a host, and all of them are listening to data being distri…

Oh yeah, for option A I meant to just stay in Canada until my company hopefully gets profitable and then "transfer" it to the US and move to the US if somehow I can self-sponsor/sp…

I'm confused. I thought on a TN or H1B I'm not even allowed to start a company in the US.

What would be the advice for Canadians who want to start a company, but are unable to do so because they are on a TN/H1B? As I see it my only options are: a) Move back to Canada, s…

IMO passing a lambda for synchronized code makes it much easier to read (going off of working with folly::Synchronized)

C++ was probably compiled without optimizations. In a compiled binary there won't even be any calculations done - see for yourself https://godbolt.org/z/Mhhzhdr7c

About time. The amount of value you get from having random conversation with your coworkers is too much to pass up on. Breakdown of communication through text also sucks.

I meant, using branches in a way that's "better" - whatever people who use git mean when they say that. As I said, I haven't used SVN. It just seems like perforce and mercurial are…

You have to use something similar to https://github.com/facebook/folly/tree/main/folly/experiment... to solve this problem. It's a nasty bug that everyone encounters when first wor…

To me it's not obvious. I wouldn't think that an app can inject JS into a website because I'm using a web-browser from their app.

It isn't open source

Every single time there are some people who love C (in my experience for the reason they haven't worked professionally in C++) that claim that they're actually WAY more productive …

The lengths people will go to not use C++ is staggering.

This big is news in big tech?

I believe affirm provides 0% APR for a year sometimes?

How are these websites supposed to be viewed? Never understood. If I just scroll down it looks horrible. Only way I've found is by holding the down button, but seems like this is j…

I'm curious as to why CTO's or companies spend time writing these types of blogs. They're clearly aimed at programmers but: 0 interesting/unique content. Seems like it's copy paste…

The creators that are decently big (100k+) make enough money whether or not you ad-block. Don't worry about it.

Oh, then I was completely wrong :D I would think the youngest kids are generally the more academically advanced. (But this is coming from someone who has 0 kids :D)

If I were to guess, his brothers and parents pushed him, and had more experience with teaching compared to their older son. They got him interested, and he went from there. He was …

1 question: how do you know their videos aren't demonetized? Also, in my understanding, youtube only demonetizes PER VIDEO, not your whole account unless you do something serious, …
