> Obviously failing first requests isn't ideal but for popular requests it quickly becomes insignificant.

The first request can also be called asynchronously, and display a message to the user that it is 'processing....'.

> Technically hard isn't the only kind of hard Yup that just about sums it up. The reason FAANG are so big is mainly legality, as well as PR, and having a big pocket to wait out the competitions. Nothing is really on technical merit in the real world.

Not always! If computation involves math over set of records, then Postgres is great for that. Have the operation inside the db reduce connection pooling on the application level.

In this day and age, if you don't own the domain, you don't own your email. It is worth the 10 bucks to get your self a domain just so you can have a long term email.

I wish every browser does that! Web site has no business storing data on my computer more than 4093 bytes (that is already too much) per domain in my computer just because I visited a web page. 10 MB - 10GB of data is too much.

And also don't forget to include Carbon emission emitted by natural event such as volcano eruptions

Personally I think PDF text should NOT be extractable. It is used to show printed document.

The only reason for Oracle to buy TikTok is purely political. It is a 'truly' us company not a CCP company. And I trust NSA more than I trust CCP.

However, comments like "SSH runs in port 22 and my credentials are utku:123456. What is the likelihood of being compromised?"

You have any idea what kind of RAM and computing power an average user have access now days. Think of better obscurity abstractions than that.

Try bcrypt/scrypt hash your shadow password on linux.

Totally! Security by obscurity is awsome!!!! Had a software running for over 10 years for many users. Never a hack because the backend is some very obscure framework on jvm. Just upgrade the JDK and everything still runs fine after over 10 years.

people should all just bit bitorrent over i2p for all internet access. So everyone is anonymous at all time. No body should be known who they are unless they want to you.

yeah, personally a new idea is a new idea. Personally nothing is new. Everything has being done before.

Wikipedia has Random article for ages now. All TikTik did was put on a nicer UI. Of course UI are important most user are suckers for that stuff. However I found there really aren't any new ideas left just implementations.

When it comes to food, China import food from other countries, just because they have a lot people and not enough food.

What is meant by that is vaccine and all FDA type of drug should not be trusted unless they have several decade if not intergeneration studies to back it up.

It is big pharm. What else do you expect? A little research you will find no big pharm can be trusted.

Yes!!!! React/Redux and other SPA client-side rendering framework I'm talking about you! Just because you can, doesn't mean you need to make a page SPA acting like a desktop application. Stop it!!!! Stop making it a fashion industry out of web development. [End of Rant]

KISS, SSR is fine for most the time for web pages!!!

One exception to the above rule of SPA framework is mithril.

However, I understand not everyone can code in LISP/Scheme way. So I don't blame it for not being more used and popular than React camp. However, they seems to have JSX support now, not sure if the performance is still the same when using JSX.

yes, very interested in the emails you can't import. I don't work for ProtonMail btw, just have quite bit of experience with smtp and email. Just curious from a tech perspective what kind of email you are having trouble importing.

Yeah convention over configuration is great! It attributed to the great success of RoR kind of framework as well.

for local network. You can just do python3 -m http.server in the dir, or python -m SimpleHTTPServer (python2)

Or npm install -g http-server for nodejs,

then http-server

Local network is easy.

>If it is on a server (For example, a side project instance in AWS), then I drop it into S3 bucket, export it and send the URL to the recipient. I just eat the cost of them downloading it. Usually I am making money off the work anyways, so it is the cost of doing business.

Consider BunnyCDN way cheaper than s3.

Open source it, or else it is just a marketing stunt.

It is very common to hear from new developers who are not familar with declaritve programming to complain about SQL. They don't tend to see the SQL syntqax fit into their 'programming' paradim. It is very simple, SQL is magic box, you ask it what you want, and it gave it to you. It is around for so long for a reason.

What does "noninvasive or surgical implants" mean?

Anything without peer reviewed multiple intergenerational studies would not trust worth. All these new biohack tech I would only consider them to be an experiment. It is find that you want to volunteer for the, just treat them as an experiment and accept the risk involved.

I strongly disagree with this. Getting the schema right, reduces code writing and code maintenance.

Why would people even use NoSQL when they really know how to use postgresql. It has JSON native build in.

Postgresql and NodeJS is the best! being using it for years. Of course you got learn SQL or some kind of ORM to make it worth you while.

It is called The Little JavaScripter

Javascript is pretty much scheme or lisp.

One can make code more readable and intuitive and making a good product for the user.

I have done both in heavy server side rendering using templates and SPA rendering on the client side. It all comes down to your user base and the devices/browser they are using, if they have an aversion toward running JS in the browser.

By using JS on the server side, you can maintain quite bit of logic on both server and client side. If you are doing web development, why not make it the same. Yes, one shall not trust the client validation, but many people find JS validation to be more user friendly than a form submit.

Yeah, there are so many times where I'm asked to solve some sudoku puzzle in an interview. It is really sign of a big interview question.
