Right but what if it already ran? Should the jobs be written such that they are tolerant to re-runs?

Source?

How does it handle state and restarts? What happens if a job is scheduled to run "before 10am", then the entire server restarts at 9:55am, will it try to run that same job again when it boots back up?

Never used it before but check out https://github.com/scylladb/scylla

I have a lot of experience with Cassandra though.

At least it's broken via a major version bump... right?

`import *` in the screenshot.

just poking fun, I understand that by no means should you wait for perfection before shipping. Congrats on getting to the front page!

I agree, but it's not exactly the best look to complain only about instances of the majority getting discriminated against when minorities are getting discriminated against constantly

There are too many streaming services, people will only pay a recurring fee for a small number of them. Journalism is probably at the bottom of the priority list for what people would pay for as well, with the plethora of free journalism available online, or the services that workaround paywalls.

This is one of the most beautiful pieces of technology I have ever seen. This gives me hope. I can't imagine the feeling of finally being able to communicate after being trapped inside of your own body.

I know it's not fancy, but it has a 100 page score and it has day-mode and night-mode, automatically based on your OS setting, and it's fast and reliable. https://waltermichelin.com/

This doesn't appear to work at all in Chrome on MacOS

I know what a Google (engineering) salary is, and even if you're paying half of a tech salary to rent, the other half is still a hell of a lot to have leftover for your average American.

"Dad can I please play with my toys?"

"Not until you learn python you little shit"

Do you feel those hosted solutions are worse than rolling your own website? Why stand up your own website and architecture if you can use off the shelf solutions? I am genuinely curious.

I'm half trolling here, but if you can't leave your home, why would you need a COVID test?

Mods pls remove. This is a repost

I left the Bay Area and purchased a home in the Research Triangle for 1/3 of what I would have pain in SF, and I got way more for the money. Apple and Google are opening offices here, and the area is relatively progressive. There are 3 cities in close proximity with many universities. I feel that this area is very up and coming.

I was also wondering this. I'm unfamiliar with linux kernel development but this reminds me of that.

I see you haven't done anything in 10 years

Love to see this line of thinking taking over in the industry. Languages like Go make this type of object relationship super easy.

> cannabis - though relatively harmless - causes people to space out uselessly in front of the TV

You sound like your knowledge of cannabis is from anti-drug TV commercials. Speak for yourself, cannabis can definitely be a social drug. People are just forced to do it in the privacy of their own homes due to prohibition.

Python easily has the best debugger I've ever seen in a language.

``` import pdb; pdb.set_trace() ```

that's literally all you have to do at any point in your code. Run your code in the foreground of a terminal, and boom you have a debugger exactly where you want it.

Do you work on high traffic websites? Surges in traffic such as these often expose underlying bottlenecks. Give the people a break, I'm sure they'll work on fixing it after today.

I believe they're playing around with removing dislikes

This is a dramatic oversimplification of how complex it is for a python developer to configure and deploy an application on kubernetes.

How do you start learning this breadth of software engineering? I consider myself good in the python / django space, but where do I start with learning these infrastructure technologies? I find that I use them once or twice periodically, and then don't touch them for so long, so I forget much of what I have learned.

I feel like OP was joking

This is why Snapchat became popular, and everyone seems to have forgotten the value in that feature-set. Instagram blatantly cloned half of the Snapchat feature-set and Snapchat itself has also gone to shit.

I don't think it's fair to compare a programming interface, which is more analogous to designing something like the plumbing architecture for a house, to a movie script, which is art. Yes, a well-written API can be considered art, but with the plumbing analogy, a "copy-cat" would just be making sure the same pipes are connected to the toilets in the same positions. What's going on under behind the dry-wall wouldn't matter.

Movie scripts and APIs aren't really comparable as you have presented them.

I love this kind of workflow configuration as code, and as Starlark (essentially Python) nonetheless. I would 100% use this!

I wish we had this at work!
