We've had to deal with a few. They removed a gcs api a couple years ago and told you to update to the newest version of the sdks. obviously they didnt tell you which version it was actually fixed in, figuring that out was an adventure in itself. everyone's runs off master right? Worse, they hadnt even updated all of them by that point.

We updated to working versions, but support kept telling us we were using the old one. Turns out they didnt update the dataflow runtime, which they own and we cant inspect or update, and they were reporting it to us for us to fix...

I like your explanation for this. I didn't think it was funny, but didn't see it as offensive either. After reading your post, now I can see how it was funny.

It's bewildering to me that anyone can get offended (to vehement profanity) by the text. At the same time, I'm kinda used to criticisms of the mobile game industry. When I switched from a job in AAA games to the nascent mobile games industry (back in J2ME/BREW days, before smartphones), a number of former colleagues were questioning and even dismissive of my move. They did not consider such a crappy platform as worthy of a game developer. I didn't blame them for having that attitude. I just thought it was fun to be able to make and design games all by myself (instead of being on a team of over 90, about half being programmers) and be able to carry them around in my pocket!

I was floored to discover Reddit is violating Google’s Auth TOS! Check this out:

2. Log out of reddit.

3. Clear your Reddit cookies.

4. Visit Reddit again.

You’ll be automatically logged in..!! This is nuts, shady, and a violation of the Google TOS. You can’t keep users’ auth tokens, secretly, and then log them back in when you feel like it. A user clicking “log out” means you expire the auth token.
I guess it's not bad for a fanless 10-watt SoC the size of a stamp on an entry-level portable computer in a browser.

To get that kind of performance nearly 10 years ago in a desktop GPU, I bet you would need a whole lot of dollars, watts, and cube inches.

It's easy to forget that the original C standards were largely codifying existing practice during an era when using gets() [1] was existing practice. The world wasn't quite ready for Ada, I guess. Best-laid plans of mice and men etc. etc..

Also, keep an eye out for "amortized" complexity. This does have a legitimately rigorous definition, but for latency-bound paths it can practically amount to "O(whatever), except for the particular invocations that are far, far worse under unspecified conditions".

I don't know, maybe there's a legitimate UX issue here, but the author also said it only took them an hour of reading up on Glacier to resolve. That seems a reasonable amount of effort to have put upfront.

It also speaks to poor attention to detail when a small company starting out can accidentally overlook ~$1000 per month in unexpected charges.

I expect AWS to maybe help out if someone fat fingers a number and, I don't know, accidentally spins up 1000 m5.24xlarge instances for half a day. I don't expect them to step in like that for a problem sustained over the course of months.
It memory on a SiP.

Taking a quick look at an i9 9900 ($382 for chip alone) it supports DDR4-2666. i9-10900T runs at 2933 - $400 for chip alone.

Apple is running their stuff at 4100 or something. So that looks faster. And the mac mini costs $700 including the insane apple margins?

Can you spec out the $700 machine on pc parts picker that shows that the M1 is nothing special? One with faster or equivalent memory.

Calling the M1 and $700 machine a HEDT?? Huh? Apple is going to sell these things by the truckload.

Okay that sucks and I understand where the author is coming from. There are definitely some rough edges in the AWS interface. I do believe as a large corporation Amazon does have some responsibility to waive some of the charge. In this case the intent was not to store things in S3 and just leave it there (especially if there was no access).

Amazon has traditionally been good about waiving charges for account compromises and things along that nature. However you do have to keep up on it since they bill you every month. If you're running a company part of the responsibility is at least checking in on your financials every so often. Right when you see a charge for $700+ when you expect $50 is a red flag. At that point if he had contacted Amazon I'd be surprised they didn't waive the charge.

I'd be curious if Amazon was willing to waive any part of the charges at all.
My concern is more with the longevity of the drive. SSD failures are only a matter of time, and these new Macbooks are going to be bricked once they hit their TBW limits.

Could the sscanf bug also be a security issue? Most C strings are null terminated, but I could imagine using sscanf to read outside of bounds due to the null-seeking behavior on a non-null terminated array.

In their gif, the big alert right at the top, in the very first bullet point, says it will make a copy of the object. They intentionally scrolled down quickly in the gif to hide this.

Is the argument that this should have been a pop-up that required you to click “ok” instead?

"This action creates a copy of the object with updated settings and a new last-modified date. You can change the storage class without making a new copy of the object using a lifecycle rule."
The step 6 is to integrate graalVM into web browsers in order to allow seamless interoperability between any language (e.g Kotlin) and any other language, especially javascript and the web apis.

I would say they are like tubes because the distortion is more interesting than the silicon alternatives.

For non-distorted applications if you do overdrive a bit it can be a lot less harsh too.

Also very difficult to make two the same, so specs were wide and top parts were hand selected from large batches of on-spec parts.

One of my best sources of tasty germaniums was from boards about the same vintage as these IBMs.

I think it's good to make musical or audio circuits from just about any tube or transistor whether it was originally intended for audio or not.

A very simple 2-transistor PCB can have art where it can mirrored and used for NPN or PNP, with positive or negative ground to your battery clip.

I like transistor sockets like there were on some of the early solid-state scientific instruments. Before they could be sure the transistors were more reliable than the sockets.

Put on adjustable bias and find some superb high-performance small-signal BJT silicons for reference. Leave one in then audition the germaniums in the other socket, biasing each one accordingly.

Without a guitar pedal enclosure you can just cut a long guitar cable in half and solder it to the PCB's input & output with the battery hanging off. If the situation arises the whole thing could then be heat-shrunk right there into the middle of the cable. Don't ask me how I know. The python that swallowed an alligator. Doesn't matter if it's positive or negative ground since it's floating.

One megohm impedance for guitar input is good, and play it by ear for a wide choice of output impedance into the guitar amplifier.

I guess I kind of like playing a fuzzy guitar as much as ZZTop :)

Been known to make a pedal or two.
I’ve been thinking about this lately. Can you actually be faster than C? Like, in the sense that you can transpile any bit of Python or Lisp or Haskell or Rust or JS into C but the opposite isn’t necessarily true because not all those language support all the features exposed in C (such as goto, no bounds checking, pointer arithmetic, etc.), any algorithm for say parsing JSON can be expressed equally as efficiently in C, while a clever and hacky C-specific algorithm cannot necessarily be expressed in those higher level languages.

In other words, is “faster than C” even a good metric if all it means that “if you implement something inefficiently in C it will be faster than if it is implemented efficiently in not-C”?

The Tor leak was already fixed in Brave Nightly when independently discovered. We were fixing as part of a HackerOne bug report, which per standard practice is not disclosed until patched in all releases. The mistake there was not forgetting to disclose, it was not airlifting the fix into Brave Stable and intermediate releases right away. We have already made process fixes; automated network leak testing is the biggest one.

Personally I'd stick with Heroku for now unless you're hitting real limitations or anticipate them quite soon. Cloud fiddling tends to not produce a lot of visible customer value at early stages.

Cloud choices are also "stickier" than most people expect. Migrating a successful service is often much harder than the initial cloud build.

The Heroku -> AWS path is a pretty natural one to take. You could stay in Heroku, create an AWS account and start managing your DNS configuration with an IAC tool (e.g. terraform) in AWS. That then opens up a bunch of options later down the line, like S3 integrations, peering an AWS VPC with Heroku, wiring up various AWS managed services, CDN, cert issuance and so on, all using the same basic tech. You could keep your current workflow but a pretty smooth migration path available to move off Heroku and into AWS on your own time. If you need to. I don't "love" AWS, but I know most of the rough edges now and I think that's how a lot of people feel about it.

I think Heroku also has pretty strong GCP integration so that's also a natural option.

You could also avoid making a cloud choice now and just use any DNS provider with a decent API.

P.S: I think you could be successful with any of the services you listed, but would not recommend Linode, Hetzner, OVH etc due to the lack of managed service options. If you're using Heroku now, I predict you'll want managed service options in future. Apart from the services you listed, you might also be interested in fly.io (I'm not affiliated).

str_t json = loadfile();
size_t offset = random();
sscanf(“%d”, ?);

With opaque str_t you can’t just json[offset]. Should sscanf take offset with every string (sscanf(fmt, s, off))? Should we copy a slice of json and parse it? Should str_t have zerocopy mirroring ability (s2 = strmirror(s, off, len))? How many of these three are just a snakeoil that changes nothing?
