Re:It's not Ruby that's slow, it's your database on Wednesday November 09, 2022 @04:25AM (#33529107)
Classic whataboutism, same as python bottleneck discussions, lets just shift the blame! Never understanding people don't understand database design or how query engines work.

Vote with your wallet, pay for good quality and ethical treatment of manufacturers.
All the time, current plan is to cash out in a few years and open a Brewery or Brewpub. Making beer makes me happy and is way less stress.
Re:Building an Android App with AWS Amplify on Monday November 19, 2018 @05:54PM (#18490483)
I've used Amplify twice now, once with a React SPA and once with React Native, I'm not a fan of the managed UI side of it using withAuthenticator and the likes but I do like the managed Auth structure and the fact I don't have to handle cognito tokens and refreshing and the likes. It saves a fair bit of time on that front.

I haven't tried Analytics, API Gateway/Lambda or Notifications with it though.

Re:Show HN: Arcentry API – Programmable Cloud Diagrams on Tuesday August 28, 2018 @11:38PM (#17865393)
This looks cool, a lot more open than cloudcraft (and cheaper!) How long has Arcentry been around?
