plexicle··on SpaceX’s Falcon Heavy successfully launches
A link to the official YT... much better: https://youtu.be/wbSwFU6tY1c?t=37m17s
plexicle··on Porting Go Web Applications to AWS Lambda
Interestingly, I am working right now on doing the exact opposite of this.
plexicle··on Learning Go by porting a medium-sized web back end from Python
That is.. backwards in almost every way.

Any language that compiles to a static binary, sure.
plexicle··on Show HN: Keratin AuthN – Accounts and Auth Microservice in Go
Yeah, you missed them.
plexicle··on Tesla makes quick work of Puerto Rico hospital solar power relief project
Don't mean to be pedantic (I know it was the tweet and not you), but it's 200kW of power and 500kWh of storage.
plexicle··on Introducing Surface Book 2
Where have you been for the last... like 2-3 years?
plexicle··on Edward is officially moving into TensorFlow
"Hopefully not a trend of everything being subsumed by Tensorflow."

Why?

plexicle··on Google Pixel 2 and 2 XL announced
Assuming it's just like all of their other storage promotions have been over the last several years.

If you are over your free cap when the promotion ends, you don't lose access to anything, you just can't add anything new.

plexicle··on Cloud Firestore: A New Document Database for Apps
Very excited to see a Go SDK for it, too! Can I use it for real-time as well?
plexicle··on A customer recounts Solar City/Tesla installation hell
I had both installed at the same time and it was pretty close to the same. Just an extra permit and they had to have engineers inspect the roof and mounting planes.
plexicle··on A customer recounts Solar City/Tesla installation hell
Throwing in my hat too. Mine went very well. My Tesla concierge was awesome and the whole process was timely. It took a few months (survey, permits, inspections, etc.) which is standard.

18.85kW system with 2x Powerwalls in Florida.

plexicle··on China Blocks WhatsApp
No one is forcing them to use Google or Facebook. I sure as hell wouldn't want the US blocking Baidu or whatever. Let me decide.
plexicle··on Google Employee's Anti-Diversity Manifesto Goes 'Internally Viral'
The first few paragraphs were the only reasonable parts of the entire document. It quickly goes off the rails.

>Edit: two paragraphs in and it's making lots of well reasoned points. Why the outrage? And why the outrage before the majority of people actually read the thing?

Ironic... did you actually read the thing? Past the first "two paragraphs," anyway?

What are you going on about here? I have never once heard someone confuse "race condition" with "high CPU usage."
plexicle··on TypeScript support in Electron
It is VS Code. Same as the demo they posted: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PJRag0rYQt8.
plexicle··on MoonScript, a programmer friendly language that compiles to Lua
Thankfully, GitHub starting gutting Coffee from Atom a long time ago. There's still too much in there though.
plexicle··on Npm v5.0.0 released
Not naive, and that's pretty much the primary reason. But for all web components in general, not just the Polymer flavor.
plexicle··on Npm v5.0.0 released
npm desperately needs a flat install option.
plexicle··on Npm v5.0.0 released
I think you have that backwards. npm doesn't support all of Yarn's features.
plexicle··on Sublime Text 3 Build 3132 released
VSCode is lighter and faster than Atom. I believe you got those switched up.

edit: Whoops, didn't see a couple comments already saying this. My bad.. consider it an echo then.

plexicle··on TensorFlow 1.0 Released

plexicle··on TensorFlow 1.0 Released

plexicle··on TensorFlow 1.0 Released

plexicle··on Visual Studio Code 1.9
So.. have you even tried Code? It doesn't sound like you have. It's quite fast.
plexicle··on I returned my 2016 MacBook Pro with Touch Bar
Just to add my anecdotal counter-point. (I don't have a blog.)

I know a handful of people who normally upgrade every refresh and are flat out refusing this time. A couple (that aren't locked in by being iOS devs) have picked up other laptops instead.

I disagree with your assessment that it's a "great product." I bought a spec'ed out one myself that I eventually returned.

Not claiming either one of us are the majority but I wanted to add my side and not state it as ultimate fact and certainly not present it argumentum ad populum.

plexicle··on ThinkPad X1 Carbon
If you can get past the "gamer" aesthetic and you aren't interested in a 2-in-1-- the Razer Blade (and Stealth) are great build quality and specs. Razer itself has terrible (non-existent?) support-- but the products are good.
plexicle··on ThinkPad X1 Carbon
Yoga 910? Spectre x360?
plexicle··on Visual Studio Code 1.8
I would personally never use an IDE for any of my (non-mobile) development. No way no how. That makes things like WebStorm or whatever DOA for me personally.

My best guess for your downvotes is that your comment isn't only nonsense and inaccurate, but also pretty churlish.

plexicle··on Announcing TypeScript 2.1
I'm having trouble remember when Flow was bigger than TS at any point?
