Agreed, my company tried buck2 first when evaluating a cargo replacement, but bazel is just so much more mature at this point that it ended up being the natural choice. Thanks for your examples, they helped us get started :)

I have been thinking about turning it into a literate code document.

Please do! This looks like the perfect size and complexity to learn the basics, I'd love a structured walk-through of the code.

This is not some "glossing over some details for a lay audience" situation. It is not a lack of depth. It makes ridiculous claims, fundamentally misrepresenting what this research is, to make it sound cooler and more interesting. This is one of the worst pieces of science journalism I've ever seen.

There has been big debates about this in Norway for as long as I can remember. One of the arguments for the "father's quota" is that when fathers were not "forced" to take at least some parental leave, there was an implied policy many places that as a father you left all the parental leave for the mother, with all the inequality that follows. Personally I am very pro the father's quota, as no employer can now (implicitly) force me to not take it.

There's nothing in PostgREST that stops you from limiting control so that even anonymous users can use it safely. I've used PostgREST for user-facing APIs with success, but it requires some knowledge about the postgres access control model.

EDIT: And "Just point Postgrest at your PostreSQL database" is rarely a good idea in my experience, I usually have (versioned) API-schemas containing views, so that I can change my underlying data schema at will without borking the API.

They presented this at FOSDEM today, and ran the entire presentation (and a demo afterwards) on the actual hardware. They used PCI via an FPGA to interface with a standard ATI gfx card iirc. I don't know if the video is out yet, but have a look!

Based on my knowledge of the team, I'm almost certain you can opt out of syncing. I'm also going to guess it's rootable.

Add-ons in 2017 10 years ago

Apart from having to manually up the maxVersion every now and then (and rebuilding from source), pentadactyl has Just Worked™ for me.

Add-ons in 2017 10 years ago

So, will extensions like pentadactyl or Tree Style Tabs be able to exist after "some point in 2017"? Ignoring rewrite time etc., will there be APIs available to do what they do today?
