My main three asks for Ubuntu to replace my mac is -
1. Alternative to magnet or any window management systems that does not require elaborate tmux setup.
2. More adoption of snapstore and auto-updates.
3. Comparable performance and battery life to today's arm laptops.
Reminds of me Aadhaar in India.
Are product managers replacing the engineers as the core line role these days?
Product managers talk to the CEOs more than software engineers do.
Way better search (or is it content?) on certain keywords. Feels like all the noise in `Latest Tweets` is filtered away.
are google cloud TPUs available in mumbai region?
Can you link any resources? SRE post-mortem analysis by Google is a resource I have found to conduct a blameless post-incident review.
sri lanka went only-organic for their agricultural produce. look what happened to their yield...
When govt bans, its the people who pay the price.
Ah, I wanted to hear more of adventures of Les and Bobby.
I will bet my money that planetscale sales will not eclipse Amazon RDS.
Github is a globally used site and US law takes precedence over all else. We need to decentralise the web.
Access to capital is the underestimated aspect of the entire scenario.
Sheer amount of money available and accessible to you once you are rich is tremendous. From stimulus funds from US Fed to parent's trust fund.
How do two engineers affect an entire company project?
Basically sales pitches...
I find clickhouse with proper time-series encoding and tiered data storage to be a better alternative than timescale. There were also some issues with ingestion speed with a timescaleDB.
Can we think of timescale as OLTP for timeseries data with gurrantees from postgres and clickhouse as OLAP for timeseries data?
Continuous Aggregates is a neat feature though.
levels.fyi does not agree with you. I feel we are making more software engineers than jobs that are available. Many are offshoring product development to India.
Atlassian founders are the wrong place to look for tech and VC mentorship.
Every company here has a values round copying them and doing things that atlassian does.
I believe tech and VC ecosystem will improve once they become bigger. There are companies like okzellar, shippit which do not have that atlassian bias.
Yes this is it. American taxpayer money went to americans mostly and some of its allies. 6.4T just did not go to poor communities of color.
Exactly. How do these caches behave when python is used as a webservice in a multi-process multi-thread setting.
What if we have multiple containers running the same service and load balanced using an ingress controller?
Local Caches are a headache in such a scenario.
Best pattern I have read is use a cache as a sidecar in a pod. I feel that scales very well.
This is where microsoft's billion dollars went in OpenAI.
Clever
I deleted my reddit app and switched to old design recently.
Reddit was becoming very addictive in the morning.
NAS mirrored to S3 Glacier. How much does it cost?
I really like the architectural decisions made in the project. OperationalTransform library may need some work like testcases and add more powerful constructs. Is there any theory behind it? Maybe add a link to it.
I believe this project can become a popular opensource project. It is really fast.
This is india specific, I chase startups which are best bet at implementing govt policy or is it a problem that I am facing.
1. One was recruiting phase as median age of India is low and adds overwhelming number of new workers every day. Google uses it.
2. Second one was a fintech during digital india phase.
3. SAAS with global sales and high scale (rpm)
All three were hard and very fullfilling. I made a lot of money with fintech one and learned a lot on engineering at scale with third one.
In the first one, I made lifelong friends and got to meet important people, attended VC talks and part of decisions like hiring PM as new grad, VC was very involved with CEO about it. Something my salary could not quantify.
If I were to do it again, do it well with patience rather than arrogance and anger against founders.
This seems to be a well thought out solution
is it GIL-free? Web servers are multi-core. Any fork of python should serve requests on all cores like golang and its scheduler does using goroutines.
Yes, ISOs are for employees and very good ones.
US subsidiaries in India do not offer ISO stock and ask us to pay 30% per requisite tax on unfair market valuations
I used Magnet extensively when I used a mac. There is no linux equivalent.
