What a coincidence, I was about to pick this up but then decided to go with Use of Weapons (Culter #3) instead. Will surely pick this up next!

This looks really cool. Can you tell me the minimum specs required to run this? It would nice if you could add it to the readme as well.

Partially true, I would argue. Try running kubernetes on an on-prem infra and you'll soon realize that it was much easier to run the apps on VMs themselves.

I've switched to GBoard on the iphone. I don't like the fact that I need to use a third-party software for something that's so crucial. But GBoard is so much better than the default iphone keybaord.

Sure, a lot of people have written about this but this isn't a skill that you can learn from a book.

They're way is the complete opposite of Tool, probably why Tool lands up taking decades to release albums.

I read Snow Crash for the first time last month, and it instantly became one of the best books I’ve ever read. Sometimes I wonder what it would have been like to experience books like this when they first dropped—when the ideas were raw, the tech was just on the horizon, and the world hadn’t yet caught up.

Also, 5. If you plan on deploying such massive clusters, hire a good network engineer. (:

"In practice, few companies switch providers unless politics are involved, as the differences between major cloud services are minimal."

This is not always true.

It's frustrating that when people discuss React on the server or frameworks like Next.js, the conversation rarely acknowledges the performance cost that comes with Server-Side Rendering (SSR). The excitement tends to focus on the benefits like SEO and initial page load performance, but the limitations and potential drawbacks of running JavaScript server-side are often overlooked.

As traffic increases, the server's ability to handle requests diminishes, especially under high loads with complex rendering. This is exacerbated by the fact that each request often requires repeatedly rendering the same React components from scratch, rather than reusing client-side resources.
