As I understand they propose to pass the data explicitly, like a struct with fields for all possible request-scoped data.

So basically context.Context, except it can't propagate through third party libraries?

That's true if you need to clean up temporary files every night or make a backup.

But what if your cronjob has an effect in the physical world, locally? E.g. open the parking gates every morning.

The world is inherently messy :-)

DevDocs 3 years ago

Only gripe here, and it's not a devdocs problem per se, is that Firefox deletes the offline documentation if you haven't opened devdocs in a while.

Is there any way I can turn that off, preferably on a per-site setting?

Not often you see simracing mentioned here!

For sure there are gains to be made by having proper material as opposed to entry level, but those quickly become marginal.

The biggest gains by far are usually found in working on your driving style. Have a look at telemetry of someone who's slightly faster and work out the differences methodologically.

Shameless self-promotion: if you're racing in iRacing, have a look at https://garage61.net, we have over 125 million laps of telemetry to learn from.

Not much feature development is perfectly fine if it works! Things don't have to evolve.

Planning to use litestream as a library to dynamically swap in/out dozens of databases in a process. Looking at the code it'll easily allow that (super clean, kudos!).

So many thanks, it's going to enable a lot of new things!

One Bitcoin transaction consumes hardware comparable to the hardware of two smartphones.

I knew it was bad, but this is just horrifying.

What's even more infuriating is that if you're on the legacy Google Apps for Domain plan, the only way to upgrade storage is by going to Workplace for the whole domain, even if only one person (my mother) requires it.

So instead of buying her a $20/year plan for 100 GB, they're forcing a hundreds of dollars yearly plan on me.

And obviously there's no way to detach that one account.

Looking for a better option here.
