Postgres is incredibly flexible and scales beyond what most projects will ever need. We use it both as a very large scale CMDB store for https://turbot.com and as an small embedded DB for https://steampipe.io.

Use cases where we hit road bumps earlier were:

1. High churn data. Postgres copies data for each rite update and then vacuums to clean the old versions. These use cases dominated our DB load and moving them out helped a lot.

2. Large JSON blobs. Postgres automatically compresses and will pull large (~>8kB) columns into a separate “toast” table. This makes sense but also means they are often a real bottleneck if you expect to work with larger JSON blobs as you core model. pg is great for JSON, but if you are using it at scale do pre-work and testing of this factor and how it plays with your model.

3. Of course, long term archive of data objects is much more cost efficient and scalable in an object store like S3.

Bet on Postgres. Whatever you use case it will work great until you are large enough to really understand your data and optimize for your business.

I live in Scotland. We've gone from ~15% renewable electricity to >90%, replacing fossil fuels.

When you're claiming that something can't possibly be done, when it has already actually been done, it's hardly a surprise that no-one takes your argument seriously.

Go look up a list of countries that have, say, >70% renewables and explain to me why they are managing something you claim is impossible.

Exactly, same here (also Suisse). It boggles my mind why would anybody use any other type of salt for anything, I guess lessons from primary school about iodine and its roles are long forgotten.

I never ever felt any bad taste from iodized salts. Had to actually google what kosher salt means, the connection with real kosher food is 0 and it seems purely US term.

There are whole articles about why you should never use iodized salts... seriously wtf
Sure, but that's just part of the deployment process and adds a few seconds to it, it's not something that hampers you (generally) with development.

I imagine you are asking why the grand architect included the second rule, as what it does seems clear enough.

The honest answer is I don't know. No one has explained it to me, and I wasn't there when it was born. But Debian being what it is, I'd be surprised there if there was a grand architect, or that it's possible to point to a definite moment in time it became a thing. The formality Debian has acquired over the years looks to be to attempts at codify existing practice after it was challenged. Codifying works to prevent reoccurrences of the unpleasantness associated with such challenges.

The practice has always been someone volunteers to maintain a package, they expected nothing but the freedom to do the job in the way they saw fit without fear of interference providing they followed policy, and no reward except the bouquets and bricbats for how it turned out. When put that way it's not much of a reward, but it's been enough to attract a lot of us to the task.

The importance of that reward can best be seen by looking at what selfish motivation is left if you took it away. Good deeds are great and all, but when done where nobody can see them or others can easily take over after you've put all the hard work in or worse can claim credit for it, such hidden deeds are not great motivation for sticking at it for years.

We are all very aware that binds us and we are protective of it. But human nature being what it is, it can't be surprising the second rule has been challenged on many occasions, which has lead to it being codified in so many ways it's become part of Debian's DNA.

I believe parent is not really talking about React/Vue/Angular components, but rather about CSS components.

Framework components are indeed industry standard, and I'd argue that Tailwind (and Atomic CSS in general) also works better with them.

But CSS components (the alternative to Tailwind) are a hot mess. There are lots of methodologies, some of them are very complex, but even the straightforward ones like BEM are very error-prone when used by developers who haven't been using it for long.

This [isn’t the best](1) article] on it but it’s worth saying that there’s a cultural element to crappy Japanese prefab homes: they scrap and rebuilt when they buy property.
What we should learn from Japan is to *not do this*. Most of the world is not on the Pacific Rim and doesn’t have as many earthquakes, sure.
But also, this excavates wealth from working class homeowners. Most Americans’ wealth is tied to their homes, and apparently our willingness to live in an old home. Can you imagine if a home depreciated like a car?! “You loose 20% of your home’s vale as soon as you cross the threshold.” AHH!!! No!

> Is this a template based project with global CSS? That is not an issue at all if you're using an actual component system.

Yes, I use phoenix live views, which is just HTML templates with global CSS. I know there are tons of "real" CSS component systems, but live views has been really a life saver to me, and I don't need offline apps.

Concerning the lock in, I think it makes sense only if the vendor will stop supporting it. I mean, if it works, doesn't change it, even if it means forking the repo and having it sit somewhere. The security and "bugs" are handled by the browser, the CSS framework can just be stuck in times, it shouldn't be an issue. Of course if CSS specs changes drastically, it might be an issue, but it would be for any other CSS solution. Also, we are talking about class names, this is fairly standard, tailwind didn't invent "utility-first" CSS, maybe not a drop in replacement, but I don't see that as a real lock in.
Their whole decision-making process seems to be political. See 1.1 for their rationale against extensions.

For ultra-low-latency programming, you generally want to avoid dynamic memory allocation on the hot path. Instead it's common to use a slab allocator, from memory on the stack or that was dynamically allocated on startup, to continuously reuse the same memory. E.g. when a web request comes in, allocate all temporary per-request state from a single bump allocator, then after the request has finished just "free" everything by setting the "allocateFromHereNext" pointer back to the start of the allocator's buffer. This is not only the fastest means of allocation/deallocation (just bump a pointer), but also means that new requests can reuse the same memory addresses (the allocator's internal buffer), achieving better cache locality as the memory's already in cache.

Zig is ideal for this as all stdlib functions that allocate take an allocator as a parameter (so there's no hidden allocation), and the stdlib provides a bunch of allocators. This is even better than C++, where some functions like std::stable_sort unavoidably allocate memory. Rust doesn't have much support for custom allocators in the stdlib although it's being worked on, but it's more difficult to implement in Rust as the compiler must be able to ensure that the allocator (or at least its buffer) outlives all the things being allocated from it.
> An understanding of time zones is essential for appreciating the effects of DST because switching to DST is nothing else but assigning the respective location to one time zone further east. This switch increases the discrepancy between the sun clock and the social clock by 1 h.

Well, according to your logic the crappy website owner could also sell her domain to the brand new startup. For a price where the revenue supports the crappy website owner, not some absurd buisness.

The current domain trading situation is as if some real estate agent would buy all land instead of mediating seller and buyer. If your exemplaric "crappy website" wants to make a good price, there are still domain agents which could help with the deal.
I'd expect the venue to read and raise any issues they had with the rider. Having someone sort through m and ms for 10 minutes isn't a huge burden on the venue. How is it better for the band to spend time meeting with venues while they're in the middle of a tour? How should the band check that the venue read, understood and fulfilled all of the requirements? Adding a bunch of meetings to the tour schedule increases costs.
Not knowing where you are from, I'd take a guess at American as there is a sharp divide in garlic use between Italian and Italian-American cusine.

Italian food typically has a lot less garlic in it and if you had it in any of the classic dishes like ragù alla bolognese or risotto alla milanese it would be surprising. Dishes like spaghetti alla puttanesca or aglio e olio are classic examples where it is used.

Marinara sauce of course has garlic as a key ingredient but this is normally thought of as a Italian-American dish and not something you'd typically find in Italy. Likewise if you had a ragu or risotto in the US you'd probably be surprised if there wasn't garlic in it. And let us not forget that other American invention of garlic bread.

One thing I learned recently was that the typical types of garlic available in the US and Italy are different - softneck and hardneck respectively. Hardneck is a _lot_ more flavourful than softneck which I believe goes a long way to explaining why it's used so much more frequently in the US (and in seemingly incredible quantities).

There's a very good YouTube channel [0] about Italian cooking (In Italian, usually with English subtitles available) where on one episode of chef's reacting to other videos of "Italian cooking" they had a laugh about this stereotype of Italians eating lots of garlic.

There's a small bug in your code. The loop kernel writes out 16 entries despite only advancing by 15 entries, so your upper bound calculation needs adjustment. I'm also worried the JVM's compiler won't be able to eliminate the array bounds checks because of how you calculate the upper bound with the modulus. Writing it like this should fix both issues:

// We need i + 15 < length to keep the last written entry in bounds.
for (; i < length - 15; i += 15)

Matt Levine wrote about this topic on his newsletter yesterday. He went into more detail and a funny situation that came up, but from what I can tell Greensill (company he focused on) and pipe are doing very much the same business model.

"A basic dumb rule of thumb for big companies is that investors (1) do not like debt (ooh, scary debt), but (2) love accounts payable (ooh, you’re so powerful and so efficient with your cash, you can get your suppliers to wait a long time for payment so you can hang on to your cash). So transforming “debt” into “accounts payable” is a good accounting trick; it makes a company look more valuable, without actually changing anything of substance. Good accounting tricks are worth money, to big companies, and Greensill could profitably sell this trick."

I understand the time value of money and all that, but at a certain point it really feels like a waste to do all this financial voo-doo. Like, if a company wants to change from 30 to 45 day payment terms, I have to take my standard price if someone pays immediately, then adjust for 45 days, and possibly factor in that they won't pay on time anyways because they're a megacorp and have no reservations about stretching accounts payable on a small business. I can always sue them, but it'll be small-time lawyers versus big corporation lawyers, and I'll be burning the bridge if I do so. How much effort is spent trying to collect payment for no-BS "we performed to the letter of the contract, you agree, so pay us as the contract stipulates" situations?

It'd be nice if companies would pay at time of service, across the board, but any one company trying to do this would get the short end of the stick. While their suppliers would be enthusiastic, their customers wouldn't want to switch.

Your criteria for evaluating food seems to put heavy emphasis on visuals (as you mention indian dishes look post-digested) and freshness of ingredients, but these criteria are not universal. As the article mentioned, one big difference is that Indian cuisine is deeply intertwined with ayurvedic medicine (like hot spices being good for you if you're lethargic,) and thus emphasizing the health benefits of said spices. And that's not even getting into how flavor itself is highly cultural.

With this in mind, attempting to apply any objective judgement is moot, because your success criteria are entirely different.
