> everything is now Go microservices back

Excuse the simple question: When I hear "microservices", I think serverless backend. Is that right, or are they different? If they're the same, how do you stream video with serverless? (Seems like streaming, websockets, etc... shouldn't be possible in a serverless environment...)

That data transfer takes time. Load less and, all else being equal, your site will be faster.

There's a time joke in here somewhere, I just can't quite nail it down...

Legitimate question: Don't you have to give Amazon your email address to get an account and use the gift card anyway?

All of this serverless stuff looks great in theory, but I'm struggling to understand what the development environment looks like. Does every change in testing get deployed to zeit? That seems cumbersome. Otherwise, is there a nice way to test this stuff locally? (Also, how would one set up a database? On a separate service?)

This is huge. It's difficult to learn the process of solving a problem without having a deep understanding of the problem itself first.

It's hard to argue with the resounding success of Windows 8.
