> in Kitty's case the whole annoying lot of Kitty-derived and Kitty-standardized features every terminal emulator is now supposed to support,

No terminal is "supposed" to support them. Terminals (like ghostty) choose to do so because they find them to be good and worth supporting.

I disagree, I think shaming people for egregious work needs to be used more.

You seem overly worried about the feelings of a company.

Isn't it named after the company, not the employees? Would you also object to a rootkit optioned labeled "sony"? The mistake made by Emudhra is completely unacceptable for a trusted CA.

Kobo is great. Unfortunately - in India at least - the books are way more expensive on Kobo (often 2x or even more) than on Kindle. So I've found it hard to get rid of the Kindle though I prefer to read on the Kobo.

Why is the price of books on different stores relevant, when you can get most of what you want to read from the shadow libraries for free?

They have made it proprietary so that providers like AWS can't build their own service with it, thus eating into PS's income.

Google is big enough to survive open-sourcing Vitess, k8s, angular, etc. Planetscale isn't.

correct. AWS do anti-competitive stuff to us all the time we can't make it any easier for them.

What a convenient excuse

Google, Azure, and AWS already have their highly available PostgreSQL alternatives.

Why is a layoff on zoom considered worse or more controversial than layoff by 4-6AM emails (which is what other companies like Meta, Oracle, Atlassian, etc did)?

it is only allowed to post the most controversial case?

you can't comment in 2 threads simultaneously but that doesn't make this case the only one that got people upset.

The Schrodinger's ragebait.

It's not about the post, but the fact that he's referred to as "ceo who fired 900 people on zoom". Nobody calls Mike Cannon-Brookes (Atlassian ceo) as "ceo who fired 1600 people by 6am email", for example.

Already done, though not by Emmerich - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zombeavers

In a recent interview I was asked to design a job queue and I went with postgres with the first and third optimizations mentioned here. For the scale of the question - 1000 concurrent jobs - I argued that postgres would easily scale. But the interviewer - maybe because they were from aws - felt it wouldn't and wanted me to go with sqs instead.

I never understood what Atlassian saw worth $ 1 billion in this company (DX). That's even more than what they paid ($700m) for Loom. Loom is at least useful as a screen recorder, and its notetaker (in Zoom calls) is pretty good as well.

We used to get these books in the annual international book fair in Delhi back in my childhood days. I still have 2 of them (Mathematics Can Be Fun and How The Steel Was Tempered), but I'm pretty sure we had several more at the time. They were fun reads, and the illustrations used to be great!
