We simplify the big O notation in computer science. This is standard practice.

Probably Bunny CDN with Edge Scripting.

Don't worry, professors do it too.

I had one such professor in accounting. Typos, numbers from wrong year, copy/paste mistakes, forgot to turn on precision as displayed, mismatching account numbers, etc.

The textbook (written by someone else) also had mistakes. At least not in every exercise, but enough to be annoying.

Exams were also graded based on an incorrect solution, so you always had to fight for a revised grade.

They do support if you spend enough money with them. At least with GCP. Access to in-house cloud architects level of support, even.

It seems like they're entirely different units?

TOPS means Tera Operations Per Second.

Petaflops means Peta Floating Point Operations Per Second.

... which, at least to my uneducated mind here, doesn't sound comparable.

Not a fan of Mullenweg either, but let's be realistic. For anyone who isn't completely detached from reality, dealing with lawsuits is draining, emotionally and mentally.

It's easy to point fingers and assume motives, but unless you're in the trenches, it's hard to truly know what's going on in someone's head. Given the circumstances, his decision to take a break isn't exactly out of the ordinary.

Most people would probably do the same if they were in his shoes.

Ah, the classics:

"Pedestrian involved in accident"

"Cyclist collides with car"

"Car brushes against cyclist"

"Vehicle loses control"

Amazing how responsibility shifts when a two-ton machine is involved.

Study finds that 65 % of employees bypass cybersecurity measures in companies with terrible cybersecurity practices? Shocking.

That's what's usually called a lie of omission.

Netflix won't take a hit here.

Most people pay Netflix to watch movies and tv shows, not sports. If I hadn't checked Hacker News today, I wouldn't even know they streamed sports, let alone that they had issues with it. Even now that I do, it doesn't affect how I see their core offering, which is their library of on-demand content.

Netflix's infrastructure is clearly built for static content, not live events, so it's no shock they aren't as polished in this area. Streaming anything live over the internet is a tough technical challenge compared to traditional cable.

I'm having a hard time understanding your comment. I'm not American, but can someone explain why it wouldn't make sense to lose confidence in elections when gerrymandering and the electoral college skew the results so much? Sure, votes are technically counted, but if the system is set up so that those votes don't really impact the outcome the way you'd expect, isn't that a pretty valid reason to feel disillusioned?

This is literally a totally different piece of software with a completely unrelated use case. Changing the name would make as much sense as renaming a hammer because someone invented a screwdriver.
