you’re mocking his weak references but you’re not offering one yourself

Even if it is a bad practice not to have your own backups, no one is at fault here but Gandi

Where can I read more about this Carmack?
Of course they care. Every tourist killed brings more attention to them than needed, if the person was high profile enough it can bring enough international pressure for the government to take them down.

Event sourcing was one of LinkedIn use cases when they created it, Kafka is fine for all logging needs.

Is there any alternative way to access these papers? I'm interested but $43 seems too steep.

Re:Why I hate the weekends (2017) on Saturday February 16, 2019 @04:52PM (#19181163)
I get your point, but if there's no space for critique we wouldn't have any improvements ever.

That someone else has it worse doesn't make it invalid.

Re:Matz: We are mere mortals on Sunday January 13, 2019 @12:26AM (#18895252)
If you don't mind the feedback, I get the point of your post but you came out pretty aggressive very often. "This is horrible", "wtf is this", "this is awful" are not useful.

Here's a link to the repository: https://github.com/pablasso/chelodina
If you like this kind of content I heavily recommend Halt and Catch Fire. It's fiction on the personal computing business of the 80s, online gaming/communities and the race for search engines and browsers in the 90s . It makes a lot of nudges to current industry leaders.

That library reminded me of Newgrounds. Back in the day, it was a treat to go through all the games to discover gems but I don't have the patience anymore.

Re:How to Procrastinate Productively on Thursday September 06, 2018 @12:45AM (#17923928)
I tend to do that but is super draining. I could spend hours and then look back at it and get depressed because I didn't do as much as I expected.

And at the end I'm still as tired as if I worked 100% focused on something, I try to avoid this as much as possible.

Re:Instagram building standalone shopping app on Tuesday September 04, 2018 @06:14PM (#17913315)
So now that Amazon is a bigger threat in the ads space, Facebook enters e-commerce. It's going to be an uphill battle if they want to catch up anytime soon.
Re:Ask HN: Why is MacOS so popular among developers? on Tuesday September 04, 2018 @06:12PM (#17913301)
My preference is for Unix and its ecosystem. I was a long time user of Gentoo, then Debian, then Ubuntu. On Gentoo I was more than happy to install everything from source and to optimize to my hardware where possible. I moved eventually to more user-friendly solutions (hence Ubuntu) as my work obligations grew because I couldn't afford anymore to waste half a day just fixing up an update in xorg/pulseaudio/whatever.

MacOS is pretty much the ultimate Unix environment where everything just works. You may not get as good package managers like Portage, but MacOS usually has a good enough solution like MacPorts back then or Homebrew now.

OS Updates while sometimes may have hiccups here and there (like the migration from GCC to Clang) it's usually painless with me only having to tweak a couple of settings here and there in my day to day tooling, like tmux. In Linux I expected it to break something major and actually scheduled at least a day to fix it.

In summary, I like Unix and I just want to focus on work.

Does anyone have an opinion on how Laravel compares to Django or Rails?

I hate cases, is like people covering their car seats.

I like using them the way they were designed.

This is about how Git works internally, not a usage tutorial.
