MinIO is not actually open source, their source code is just public.

The company I work at spun up a MinIO instance, and we got hounded by MinIO lawyers claiming we had to pay because "hosting MinIO alters the source because of injecting configuration" and therefore violates their open source license.

There have been multiple hacker news threads about this:

The hypothesis I have is that China has way more compute resources than they are willing to share.

Compute resources they officially should not access to given export bans, where mentioning them might lead to their export ban bypass getting rolled up.

I wouldn't call reactivity in Vue "fine grained". Every object that gets loaded into component state becomes reactive, and every piece of code that touches it gets dragged into a massive internal dependency tree.

Vue has blacklisted reactivity, everything becomes reactive (and observed) by default and you can opt-out, while MobX features whitelisted reactivity and is much more fine-grained

You're comparing a single EV that's light for it's class with a single gas car that's heavy for it's class.

Why not compare the 3 series (1800kg) with the electric 3 series (2200kg)? Or compare the Corsa (1094kg) with the electric Corsa-e (1455kg)

Ansible and Puppet are for infrastructure automation across multiple VMs. Terraform is a way to declare cloud (native) infrastructure as code.

Ansible and Puppet are not used anymore because of the shift to cloud native, not because they are stateless.

Why would renaming be impossible to solve by a stateless terraform? In a cloud setup with 3 VMs, and you rename 1 VM from A to B:

Measured cloud setup would have VMs A + X + Y

New cloud setup would specify VMs B + X + Y

You can easily identity X and Y as their names go unchanged, A and B would have similar config/metadata, instead of assuming A would be added and B would be removed you can ask the user if a rename happened.

This is not a new problem to solve by the way, this is how database migration tools handle column renames.

The whole issue of JavaScript is that the standard library is worthless, so people have to write additions to keep yourself sane as a developer. This makes it seem that there are 5 billion ways to do something, because there are.

Just use TypeScript, it will fix all the issues you have with the language itself. Typing + build time errors + import/export syntax. If you want to run some this in the browser, and don't use Vue or React, it will still require manual work to setup webpack + babel

I still hear this hypetrain argument a lot, but only on hacker news. This hypetrain you have been talking about is however not the case anymore. JavaScript + TypeScript have been stable for the last 3 to 5 years, the only big change in FrontEnd development was that people have been pivoting to server side rendering.

As a fullstack dev, the most hypetrain stuff I see is with infrastructure. Docker? Kubernetes? Terraform? Combined with 15 different ways to do the same thing in AWS but worse, no thank you.

May I ask why you can't download it from your collection page, it would make the most sense to me.

Thanks for the links! I didn't even know it was hosted on github as your main site doesn't link to it.

I tried the Streamline Icons plugin for figma, but it doesn't work: "Oh no! An error has occurred. The dev team has been notified."

Nice design but how do I use your icons? Do I manually have to download every single SVG? You seem to have a collection feature, which requires some mouse acrobatics and a lot of clicks and patience, but even there it's not possible to export multiple icons to an iconfont whatsoever.

His job history agrees with you. It has been less than 2 years since he graduated, in which he has held 4 jobs. 3 months at his first job, then 4 months, 5 months and 10 months at Amazon.

I would not take his given statement at face value.

PostgREST 9.0 5 years ago

If you use this, also take a look at GraphQL, AWS has a hosted GraphQL service called Appsync, and if you look into self hosted you can also use Prisma.

Imagine postgREST with a better query format.
