No matter which service provider you choose, always backup your important data. Simply changing service providers won't make your data safe.

No, Atlassian uses AWS.

I didn't know Atmel Studio. But it seems to be windows only.

No, you don't need $20 programmers. I played with attiny85 microcontrollers in my pet projects. A $2 Arduino Nano is all it takes to program the chip.

Interesting. Fingerprint sensor works perfectly on my T450s + Ubuntu 20.04.

I don't like those seemingly arbitrary json operators. ->> #>> ?& @>. IMHO, they'd be easier to understand with proper function names.

I like the way how google does it with StatusOr and some status macros

Choosing an item from a list is not the right way to use autocomplete. IMHO, autocomplete is a good way to make sure you don't have typos. I never choose from a list. I always type enough letters to make sure the current one is the one I want and then hit tab.

> the FQDN is sent plaintext as part of HTTPS.

Can you please elaborate on that? domain name is sent after ssl handshake, no? Why is it sent plaintext?

too many libraries don't work with pypy. The last time I checked, psycopg2 doesn't work. Completely a deal breaker for me.

I closed the tab when he says people who write code like this "for (int k=0; k < N; k++)" are stupid.

Not OP. Did some quick search and found this https://www.businessinsider.com/mark-zuckerberg-keeps-a-book...

I guess the whole point of hiring an army of lawyers and advisors is that you don't have to do all the things by yourself.

But YouTube belongs to Google which is a rival company to Facebook. And that can be a problem.

Most insurance is waste

Do you think it would be better if it was called try_or_return?

I have been using dstat for years. It's a great tool. But why kill the project just because some company has a project with the same name? There is more than one distro, you know

But how do you support a browser that hasn't been released yet? Give them some time.

Chimpanzees are not monkeys.

No, people are dying, Earth is not. Earth wouldn't give a shit even if the temperature increased 20 degrees.

Luxembourg and Macao have much higher GDP per capita than the US. But I don't think they are more economically influential than the US or China.

wait, what? Isn't Huawei a private company?

Trump would ask Australia to pay for the intervention.

A genuine question, how do you tell they are really better than Google?

How are they gonna move all that 300 pb of data to Google's data center? A fleet of semitrailer trucks?

Thanks, but I will stick with postgresql + redis. It's scary to know that the database vendor might change the license to force you to either pay them or open source everything you write.

I personally use this rule to decide whether I should use a Google service/library: it has to have more than 1 billion active users or it's an important part of such services. gRpc more specifically protobuf, imo, is very important to Google. So I won't be worried about its future.

None of the online IDEs are as good as PyCharm. Don't waste your time and money.

No. In reality, it's incredibly hard to migrate any database to another database. Even if you have high test coverage, there can be some corner cases bite you later. Hack, simply a version upgrade can have all kinds of problems.

No. Huawei doesn't divide the world. The world is divided and Huawei gets caught in the middle. Just like those two Canadians, they may or may not do something wrong. But that's irrelevant when they get caught in the middle between China and Canada.
